    i think you may be shocked to find that i agree with you 100% marsh :cool:

    lets see :wink:

    (1) i for one certainly dont want just any random "run of the mill" raffish freak wandering around my wife taking pictures of her (for whatever reason) as that is just rude and disrespectful in all circumstances

    (2) I hate people who dont respect privacy. im very big into privacy and ive got an entire library on the subject

    (3) technology has created a situation which allows others to see us in positions - where - we might not like to be seen in

    .............now how do we mesh these with the "givens" in my previous post

    being realistic here - - - not idealistic and wishing for something that aint going to happen :idea:

    if im going to be upset about a picture that might or might not be taken - then perhaps (me knowing the "givens" previously stated and how i feel about things) vested with this knowledge - then i should not go there?

    my point is they do allow stalkers/non stalkers to take pics (whether that is a good rule or a bad rule is not the issue - my honest opinion is it is bad) and since they do - one has to make their own decision (knowing the "givens") using one of the following three options

    (a) go and get naked anyways - that would be tonya :shock:
    (b) go and dont get naked - that would be tonya's friend michelle :oops:
    (c) dont go - that would be my mom and dad - lol

    Pics

    I agree with ya Rob, Perverts are going to go to extremes to take perverted pictures, and with cameras being caught in hotels rooms and tanning salons ETC. all over the world, if we spent every day worrying about it then life would be no fun at all. When I used to bring my ex down there, I would love to take pics of her, and subsequently there were always someone elses wife/girlfriend in the backround, however being that I consider myself normal, I would never post pics of anyone else. I would even put the OJ Trial black box over the strangers "attributes" even when showing friends the pics from our trip.

    agreed backs and most of us on this site feel that way about pictures and privacy -

    we take tons of pictures and ive got enough to start my own amatuer porn web site and make a fortune (trust me on this) but if i did this

    (a) i would not be able to live with myself
    (b) i would lose every friend i have
    (c) i would most likely be a philadelphia eagles fan

    by the way nice game sunday between the giants and cowboys :shock:

    the best

    OUCH OUCH
    Yes I do believe I have enough to start a website myself, but I too would loose a lot more then its worth, and I think being an Eagles Fan would be the worst of em all lol
    The Dallas/Giants game was a tough one to swallow, but since the Dallas defense had more sacks then a New Kids on the Block concert, its not hard to understand why the Giants lost.... Ill be the first to admit Dallas is looking good.

    Can't see why someone who didn't know my wife would want to take a picture of her or film her just because she had little or no clothes on. I am going to be totally honest and people can take offence if they so wish but if I caught someone taing pictuers and filming my wife for no reason then I would batter them and then ask questions.
    My wife isn't a piece of meat for some perves enjoyment. A lot of you will not agree with me but thats how I and a lot of men would feel but they just won't admit it. Just because we're at TTR doesn't men we should let strangers do what they want.
    If we join in the games, I don't want my daugher seeing it on youtube etc. It's the camersa and camcorders that are killing the true spirit of TTR.

    Hmmmm?

    Just a question, as we arrive Sunday the21.
    If I find some perv taking pics of my wife without permission and being rude and boorish about it, how much trouble will I be in if I delete his photos by sticking the camera up his (hmmm) "wazoo", so to speak?
    I make it to a lot of biker rallys and they are self policing and usually it's don't shoot with out asking unless it's obviuosly what the lady wants.
    :lol:

    Gumball,
    I think you will find that is very rare to find someone thats taking direct pictures or videos of someones wife or girlfriend, though there are a few rotten eggs in the basket.. most people are respectful and know what line not to cross....
    I think the main question for this thread, was can you take general pictures and videos without offending someone, I again, I think you should be able to as long as that person is not taking a direct picture of someone else wife/girlfriend...but if my girlfriend is standing on the beach and I want to take a picture of her and there are other people there, I should be able to take of picture of her , without reprecussions....just my opinion though

    Should you find someone that is taking unwanted pictures, let the cast members know and they introduce them to Security. Taking matters into your own hands can get you kicked out of the hotel.

    That being said, there was a time when I spotted a guy on the 3rd floor of the old Section D, now Building 3, over looking the sexy pool taking pictures. I called up to him and suggested he stop. He said he was just taking pictures of his friends. I said that he should come down to the pool to take them because people weren't so sure of what he was taking pictures of. This went back and forth for a few minutes till I got bored and yelled over to Chinos who then proceeded to have fun with him till he put the camera away. There are times when Chino's personality was exactly what was needed.

    For the most part, you might end up in the background of someone else's picture as collateral damage. But every once in a while there is a troll hanging around. Public humiliation through load comments like: β€œHey! What are you doing over there?” and attracting attention to them has the desired effect. Everyone then keeps an eye on them and they are no longer afforded photo opportunities.

    I'll agree with you Les, except for the battering part. You're just a little bigger than I am.. :roll: but suffice it to say it would not go unchallenged. And I don't think anyone else should let it go unchallenged either. If you are taking pictures of your friends and they know it, that's one thing. If you are taking pictures of strangers, ask first. Period. End of subject.
