 The last hour I got completely lost on this other boards 558 million categories and sub-boards. It feels much easier and lighter here, for me at last. And it's aseptic as I expected it. Probably the right place for ms. coward of the year award Munze hehe. . It's like they are the nice kindergarten children and I'm a dirty street kid. But I don't think they could infect here. Jeeez, contactgurl, there are so many rules on your board and I don't even know I have to keep private messages private. Maybe someone should teach me good behavior. Yes, I really think you are the right person to do this. The f* |

What happened before nico left? In detail, evidence is welcomed.
And could you please rynnjacobs.com spell right finally. It's the name of a movie character, it's clearly readable and I don't know but I feel insulted if you make so many typos that it looks intentional.

Nico felt she wasn't receiving support from me since I have other celeb forums/sites to take care of. I could only log on when I was available mostly weekends and she didn't like that and had enough.

Benihana is a chain of 160+ restaurants. The eye witness is LA based. There are five or six Bs in LA. Where you have seen "Benihana, London" is the automated tweet from an automated website ('smarp' or such like), which links the location to the first google find, well, automatically. I could be wrong, but chance is low. I asked the person which one, no reply so far. In the map above I just decided for the closest to home  |

What is your business model?
No offence, I just like to learn something. There are multiple ways for micro-businesses on the internet.
Because for me it's not the first time I saw passionate fans actually run and fill your boards and keep it lively. So that you can make some bucks maybe? Could you give some insight how it works? You run these fan boards in numbers, for years now, you are quite experienced in getting nice pictures (and obviously you spend time and money for it, what is a great thing) but you never showed any personal connection to them. You post pictures for the sake of posting pictures. Maybe nobody cares but I really like to understand the motivation behind this. I'm not saying I'm kind of better fan. But are you really surprized it ended with nico like that? Someone with a completely different background than yours?

Just feel I have to secure this. I could imagine someone like Munze even manipulates postings. That's happening if you make sb with sleeping fantasies of almightiness the admin. I understand now someone wrote 'Fuehrer' My ca 2nd post..(google maps for the twitter sighting, I have a news feed too...)  And a warm welcome...  Somebody else asking..  and gets...  of course she just wanted to provoke a reaction, and so I said..  my report to owner..  So let's see what Victoria's word and invitation was worth. |

Posts have been removed since that stuff doesn't need to be public and I already messaged Munze saying her actions were uncalled for and very disrespectful. Admins/Mods have to abide by the same rules as the Members so everyone receives a warning.
Everyone will need time to adjust.

Good. This is not make a wish but could you re-think the warning for everyone thing. I don't think it's necessary at this point.Because if it's like you said and needs time it's better to start with as less dark shadows in the room as possible and bright light.
We obviously don't share the same views of what is better kept private and what should be public. I can live with that as long as you don't force your rules on me, on this place.
As you have seen I made a few posts, just to explore the forum a little bit. I personally think it has way too much sub-categories and folders in general. The overall feel is rather aseptic and kindergarten. I feel better when I am here, it's more like the place for dirty streetkids with a lot of germs everywhere..
You can answer #2063 in private if you want.

It is a problem contributions to a site like that if you can't get to your posted stuff anymore later because you can get banned when somebody just feels like it. You know I quit thinking of forums as reliable archives long ago. Not only because we live in fast times. Just see what people interests most. Latest news and development. And the sighting from three hours ago or yesterday's party event is history and forgotten. It might be different with some specific talks or movie related stuff but even if I (or someone on another board) post the most amazing findings it doesn't find the masses who talked this stuff for weeks like it once was. The overall number of active fans is too small. I went to datalounge and anon long before I was Mario. But today there is so lite new gossip or really good sources that it's boring. Well, unless you want to talk the same old love affairs again a d again. I understand people come with different levels of knowing JF, some stuff will be repeated forever on. I've seen lots of reposts on sj just yesterday. It's OK, it doesn't hurt anyone. But with what sometimes looks like strange moves I want to experiment and find out what direction this could go. It's mostly because I don't want to wake up one day and say boy, jf is sooo boring. And how can you make jf an attractive subject to talk for let's say young active lesbians, or guys? Thoughts, thoughts, thoughts..while forums come and go. Yes, banning is a terrible thing. Don't know what was going on on sj but I sure did myself one or two bans, which must be hard to understand if you don't know why I'm here and what drives me. To put it simple, I removed people who decided not to talk with me or gave me the impression they think I'm stupid. So yes, it's basically a bad and primitive ego thing. It's nothing I'd like to show you with, what a super smart person I am.. |

In case you are near Melbourne.. >> Closet queer party, Jodie Foster edition Jodie Foster is the cover girl for Closet this week. She is notable for many reasons. By far the most important is that, in her youth, she was improbably cast in improbable TV adaptations of Paper Moon and Bob & Carol & Ted & Alice. Two adaptations that, as you might expect, lasted a mere season each. The lesson here is not to cast a prepubescent Jodie Foster in TV adaptations of films by New Hollywood directors with conspicuously Jewish, identifiably Slavic surnames. Viz: Paul Mazursky and Peter Bogdanovich. In this way, Jodie Foster's sexual development – as it relates to the success of filmed entertainment – is not unlike wine. Rough but bracing as a teenage prostitute. Reaching maturity as a rape victim. Maturity deepening into maintained transcendence as an FBI agent pursuing a sexually perverse serial killer. Lotta weird sex stuff in there, Ms Foster. Which is what makes her the poster girl, I guess. Though she's not precisely in the closet so much as floating within and without it like an Oscar-winning miasma of sexual ambiguity. MAFIA, Roy Da Loy, CC:Disco and more doing it till late. Free glass of sparkling 10–11pm, $12 espresso martinis before midnight, $5 Jodie Foster shots all nite. WHAT: CLOSET – Jodie Foster Edition WHEN: Friday Oct 4 2013 WHERE: First Floor, 393 Brunswick Street Fitzroy DOORS OPEN: 10pm – Very Late $10 on the door RSVP for your chance to win FREE ENTRY entry for you + FIVE FRIENDS FREE glass of sparkling from 10-11pm $12 Espresso Martinis before 12 Midnight $5 Jodie Foster shots DJS: Hip hop queen Mafia returns to the decks for this month. ROY DA LOY CC:DISCO! SLEEVES OUR POSTER GIRL This month, CLOSET will pay homage to Jodie Foster – Oscar-winning actress, mother of two and mentor to closeted baby dyk- erm, we mean gifted young actresses like Kristen Stewart. From the little teenage hooker in Taxi Driver to FBI agent Clarence Starling to bad arse in Elysium, Jodie can do it all. She’s still foxy at 50, and she’s single, ladies. << bit.ly/18jDbergoo.gl/maps/c4sUx |

You post pictures for the sake of posting pictures. Maybe nobody cares but I really like to understand the motivation behind this. I'm not saying I'm kind of better fan. But are you really surprized it ended with nico like that? Someone with a completely different background than yours? Business model? I have a side business where I create designs for companies who need to freshen up their sites or need posters for special events. I work as a Quality Inspector Full-Time during the day and my night job is the graphic designer. Most graphic designers who work with pictures prefer HQ pictures so when you go to zoom in or blow up the picture it will stay crystal clean compared to MQ pictures where they will begin to pixelate as you stretch it to make it bigger. To make a really good/professional design you need a really nice big picture (preferably 1000px or higher in dimension and over 1MB in size). Jodie is a hobby for me, yes, and pictures to me of her are pictures, nothing compared to other celebs I admire. So when I obtain pictures whether I download them from various sites/agencies/sellers or buy them from sellers, I post them for other Jodie fans because I believe everyone should have them. There's a fan in the Gillian Anderson fandom who annoyed me to the point a few years ago that I decided ALL pictures of GA were meant for ALL GA fans no matter what and that's what I have lived by. If the pictures were obtained from sites/agencies/sellers they don't belong to one person, but the photographer. If you bought them from eBay you spent money on them so you can do whatever you want with them, I can understand you want to tag them, etc. I do that with my pictures especially if I cannot find them anywhere. As for Nico, it really upset me since she NEVER openly complained to me that she wasn't receiving "enough" support from me on running the forum. She knew I had a full time job, along with other forums. Whenever I wanted to changed something about the forum, she would disagree right away and I would go along with it for a while until I did what I thought was right for the forum. I'm the Admin, the main owner and she was a Mod who I asked to help run the forum while I was away. She all the functions as a Admin, so I don't see why she would have complained. There was a member on the forum who just joked every now and then on the forum and was completely harmless and Nico would fight with them in public which pissed me off completely. She felt I took the members side and not hers. I took no one's side. So, a lot of drama happened, Nico complained of not enough support and felt it was time to leave and delete all her pictures form the forum along with it. So, I am left to leave up her mess, and reorganize the forum. So, if you feel the forum has too many sub-boards, maybe in a few weeks time things will be different. I'm changing things around a bit.

That was the best piece I've ever read from you. In my eyes quite a step. I don't know if it's too early to proclaim ice age as over but let's say melting has begun. Thanks for your personal invitation and that you've been true to your word..ah sorry, I know you are no friend of sentimentalism.
>> I can understand you want to tag them<<
No, this is a misunderstanding. You can do with my pics whatever you want. The only reason I tag them is to see where they go on their journey round the globe. And like a bottle message they sometimes return to you years later. The story is, there are lots of JF fans in China, I didn't know that before. You can only understand what they write using the google translator but their views are interesting. Anyway, one day I noticed it was always the same Chinese girl who took pictures to their sites and so I tried to talk to her and asked if she could add a link to my site. Unfortunately it didn't work. So I started tagging, to make it easier for all to find more, or just to attract some visitors to the site.
[Actually it's the wrong watermark I use for years but never had the time to change it. One day someone accused me of stealing my own pics...It should be "jodiefostermuseum.blogspot.com", where I publish all my findings. Instead I kept rynnjacobs as sort of brand name.]
>>I post them for other Jodie fans because I believe everyone should have them<<
Yes, I came here to share too. It's as simple as that: If you don't want others to have your stuff you shouldn't upload it. Everything else is naive. Usually I share everything I have, no matter what I paid for. But sometimes I look through my collection and realize how much I haven't posted yet. Time to sort & edit is the problem here. I also rarely post the pictures alone, I try to add a story, a theme about them, so I do background research, find more info and so on. There is always a risk nobody appreciates it but I would do this with or without an audience.
Yeah and sadly right owners limit the possibilites of sharing even the oldest oldies. My YT channel with 500k+ visitors and everything 60s 70s 80s JF was deleted after four years and three strikes. The intention to share everything JF with the world and making it easy accessible became a boomerang.
Giving credit is something else. For me it depends on the awesomeness of a picture. The problem is, after some years the jaw dropping moments become rarer. I'm not deep into this agency/logins 'business' anymore. Think we both know which agencies and archives are the hard ones to get nice pics from. The best thing I ever had was paparazzi ftp access, a few months before they changed passwords. It feels totally unreal to download a pic which was uploaded only minutes before. Not my world. And as much as I thirst for rare early JF pics I prefer searching for printed material. Else I would have never met someone like Tomo from Japan and other very helpful people.
>> am the main owner<<
what happened to John?
>>Business model?<<
Yes. You even talked earning a little $ from various e-business on IJ back then.
>>As for Nico, it really upset me since she NEVER openly complained to me<<
Seems we made the exact same experiences. She 24/7 filled the board realtime. One day I had a feeling something was wrong and tried to find out what it was. She replied everything's ok. Then her posts stopped. Weeks later I accidentally learned she went to sj. Not before deleting a few posts here. I had no other idea than to ban for not talking to me. I tried several times and different ways but to no avail. I don't think it's about a lack of support only. I already wrote somewhere my diagnosis. But I'm not a doctor. And I'm careful with final verdicts. I know you native speakers sometimes think, some of the problems here might be due to language or other cultural barriers. Yes, sometimes it's quite exhausting to express my exact feelings and views. But nico, who is German, is an example that sometimes there could be much higher barricades we don't get through.
>> if you feel the forum has too many sub-boards, maybe in a few weeks time things will be different<<
No wait, you're the artist here, don't change anything because of me. It's brave enough to let me in, it might be stupid you had to tell members the icing on the cake is you model the board after my taste..

I have seen guys making funny comments, but this one was really "classy": Scott Foundas view on Delacourt: "As Elysium’s bellicose defense secretary, Delacourt, Jodie Foster is first seen strutting through a poolside cocktail party speaking her perfect French and sporting a ramrod-straight posture that suggests her stiff white jacket was sent to the dry cleaners with her still inside. (Blomkamp and Foster seem to have envisaged the character as a Frankenstein version of Hillary Clinton.) " Foundas, Scott
