Cattmatt Super Thread

[yoga-like_abana]

Only two ways to solve this: catmatt should stay in his basement or fly to aferika.

It's "aferica".

But if he moves the mojo will move with him!

Finding an Assistant US Attorney, who would put their time and rep into prosecuting a back and forth on a sports message board would be the fun part.

We totally studied this in my 5th hour civics class.  This law has never successfully been used to ever go after a bbs.  It is basically used to prevent Facebook abuse.

So as an Admin/Mod, what you're saying is, "Suck it"?

Wow, this thread got awesome fast. It sounds like Catmatt is showing Jeffy why you should never stalk a stalker.

Bigshotattorneycat has told me to lock this for the moment, his phone is ringing off the hook

wait, is this for real?

[BigShotAttorneyCat]

Catmatt and someone who alleges to be his wife have spent the better part of the last 24 hours making legal and personal threats against the board admins, posters and anyone who may have glanced at this thread at some point in it's existence.  Because of this I have made the decision to lock the thread pending my review of the situation.  Frankly, the threats my admins and board members have received appear to be much more actionable than anything I have seen in this thread.  I will be reviewing this matter in depth and will make a decision on what action to take once I have all the information.  In the meantime, you will have to have your catmatt discussions related to his posts, videos and movies in other threads.  Please be advised that we are not responsible for anyone's posts. 

[ChiComCat]

Not a big fan of the locking the CatMatt thread.  Seems against the nature of the board that is ban-free/censorship free.  I don't agree with all the posts in it, but appreciate a forum for them to be said.  This whole thing is getting pretty upsetting for me   

No offense to BSAC or anything

Yeah, I'm not cool with some of the weirdness in that thread that went beyond people commenting on or posting the videos and pictures that CatMatt himself put out there, and I'm sure as hell not ok with the weirdness emanating from the catmatts in response, but it's kind of bullshit that BSAC decided he can unilaterally decide what to do on these issues.  This was supposed to be a PARTNERSHIP.  Just because he's bankrolling the thing doesn't mean his vote counts more than the others who put their purple hearts and souls into it.

Chicat, JW, goEMAWuncensored.com?  Also, do either of you know how to set up a website like this one?

BSAC had a good run.  But now he/she is a victim of his/her own success.  BSAC - you are letting the terrorist win.  See you guys on goEMAWuncensored.com.  

[WillieWatanabe]

That thread is chock full of irony.

[EMAWgeddon]

Wonder if other fanbases have these sorts of issues.  

[OK_Cat]

In BSAC's defense, this place is probably sued more per week than any other business/board in the world.  Or at least in the country.  Lots of suing, that's what I'm getting at.

He's a big shot attorney.  His hobby is getting sued and destroying people in court.  He'd be lost without the suings.  He needs to sack up and handle this in a non-censoring type way.

If we are starting censorship around here, how are all of OK-Cat's posts not the first thing to go?

No offense OK-Cat, just a logical starting point

[OK_Cat]

I agree, ChiCat.

BSAC has successfully defended me about 12 times in the past calendar year.  Thank goodness for goEMAW.com's amazing legal defense fund.

But yeah, censorship will kill this place.  Guess it's about time to start over.  :(

That's true.  I guess he hasn't censored anything yet.  Just put a hold on the other thread before jeffy or the others post any more stealth pics.

BSAC, HANDLE THIS!!!!  

ChiCat/JW, no go on the goEMAWuncensored.com thing.  For now.
