A sad, sad update

[Lauren Tyler]

It's times like this I realize just how many losers there are in this world. They can't keep their mouths shut; Instead they have to go badmouthing other people just to make them feel bad. It ain't right.

Unfortunately this is an industry. And if you make a video not everyone is going to be happy and you will get nasty comments.

I hate to say it but NOT EVERYONE is happy go lucky. You have 50k plus members and you are bound to have idiots.

You also have people who are commenting on people as slut/***** etc who are not even IN videos just based on their lifestyle.

She has always come across to me as a really nice person. Some people just lurk on here to be mean and nasty. If they are regulars it should be reported to he moderators. If they have had NO posts, then well that explains a lot...

You just have to learn to ignore the private messages if they are not someone who posts regularly, or someone who does but is using a hidden account to slam people without revealing themselves. I am sure there are regular people on the TMF who seem the pillar of the community but use another account to attack people and pretend they are someone else to avoid being fingered!

I hadn't thought about the people with "secret accounts". But, it's really easy to say mean things to another user on a forum like this. When this happens, it's hard to enjoy being here.
I don't know what kind of comments were made to Tortuga.
If she made a video, and then decided not to repeat the experience, that's fine. She should do what she is comfortable with.

Sorry to hear about this V-GTS...And to Enny...poor thing; I respect you for making a clip like that seeing as you're on the forum.

For some mentally numb psychopaths to hurl abuse at Enny is unacceptable, preaching morals on this forum, as said in an earlier post, needs a special type of tw*t.

Again, I'm sorry to hear about this...Enny, again, thank you. GTS, it's a shame people like this exist isn't it

Atrocious behaviour. . 😡

 

[ftkl_haha]

Wow. Truly shameful behavior, on the parts of all those jackasses. Viper, Enny, don't let fuckheads like those people take your joy from you. I just said in a post yesterday in the vidclips section that most of the jack-offs that make these comments contribute NOTHING to the community, except a negative attitude. Reading about what happened to you cinches it.

Honestly, I haven't even purchased anything from you, but I recognize your contributions to this community and give you both big kudos for it. Anyone who doesn't like something has the right not to buy it ... but beyond that, KEEP YOUR DAMN MOUTH SHUT AND STOP RUINING IT FOR THE REST OF US!

All you naysayers, if you can't say anything good ... SHUT UP. Anyone who didn't ask for your opinion probably didn't @#$%-ing want it.

OK, I'm done ranting.

Who are they?

......even more thanks go out to the assholes who ruined a very beautiful thing in this community by being stuck up and sanctimonious.

Personally, I enjoyed the preview. I have no problem with ANYONE doing a fetish video. It's something that helps keep me sane in life. That's a service.

But it might be a good idea of "outing" these people here instead of having Tortuga suffer in public while letting the culprits escape the cleansing light of day. Before the let's-get-along, put it-in-a-PM-not-in-a-thread folks shout me down there's two reasons for this:

1. When dishonest people or trouble-makers in the past have been called out (Gabriel, Celtic Rose, Electric Eye, Terri Tickle, and others) they tended to go away and the trouble they brought ceased. What I’m saying, is the anonymity and silence on forum was helpful to them.

**And it’s not a revenge issue since that’s easily solved - if anyone does go after these specific jerks in PMs or attack threads let those vengeance-seekers themselves be temporarily banned.

2. Some us folks arrange, coordinate or otherwise put on gatherings where real people meet face to face. As mods of these REAL LIFE events, we truly - for reasons of both achieving a pleasant atmosphere and outright safety - need to know who to watch for on our attendee lists during our screening process.

Bellystrokes, Max, DVNC, myself or the many other hosts on this site don't need some vengeful tickling Hinckley showing up to an event to cause trouble, or an uber-perv wanting to play “You’re such a bad girl, aren’t you?” with a female guest he’s gotten all comfortable and trusting (‘cause most of us seem pretty normal!) only to make the game far too real and going too far to “punish” her perceived “sluttiness” - when he seemed like such a harmless guy.

In other words, with what’s happened to Tortuga we’ve been given the warning signs but not the identities of signs owners. For the real life stuff, that would be good info to have. I'm not getting sued at my own party.

 

[ViperGTS]

Good ideas, but she's already gone. She left the forum a while ago for these same reasons, came back to give it another shot, and now has left again because no one has grown up.

 

[Bizkit]

Its peoples own self hatred that makes them say dumb ass remarks.Criticism is one thing but to say hurtful things really shows ignorance.This is supposed to be a place for people with a common interest to interact and share this passion.Have your own opnion but dont be an asshole about it.Much respect to Viper and Enny for their generous contributions.

Atrocious behaviour. . 😡

How exactly are they psychopaths? Do you even know what a psychopath is?

The behaviour is regrettable. I feel for the young lady in question.

 

[Oddjob0226]

How exactly are they psychopaths? Do you even know what a psychopath is?

If their perception of the real world we live in is drastically different than from what we see and deal with, they are psychotic as opposed to neurotic.

Someone indulges in behavior that she enjoys with folks that she trusts, and that activity is offered for viewing by a wider, consenting audience --

-- Yet people on a tickling forum they had to knowingly & voluntarily sign up for use secret messages, hiding behind false identities, to crudely express issues regarding imagined or real (but exaggerated) flaws of physique, character or morality to an obsessive degree as to affect the emotional well being of others on the site, yes, they may be a touch psychotic. They’re fully function; it’s just enough to make things unpleasant.


Even if they don’t match all the earmarks of the classic DSM IV definition of a psychotic there’s enough going on there to concern me. I’d prefer knowing who these people are so that they don’t end up creating havoc at a real-life event.

Not True

Voicing their opinion does not make them a psychopath.

A person with an antisocial personality disorder, manifested in aggressive, perverted, criminal, or amoral behavior without empathy or remorse

Clinical definition of a psychopath.

 

[Oddjob0226]

Voicing their opinion does not make them a psychopath.

Nope, the brain chemistry makes them one and their opinion - & method of expression - can be a pretty good identifier of one, as you well know. And if that opinion is formed from a drastically altered perception of ...... (see above post for the rest).

Funny that the 'psychopath' opinion got to you but 'asshole', 'stuck up', 'dumb-ass', 'preaching', 'ignorance(/ant)', and 'sanctimonious' seemed to cause no quantifiable reaction.

 

[Banshee]

Because

All those adjectives apply. Psychopath doesn't. I showed this thread to a psychology professor at a local university and she said the behaviour was nowhere near psychopathic.

 

[Tickle Machine]

Sad to hear Viper, Your Tickle production is getting a bad reputation before it starts. Tortuga's clip was excellent. You are trying to do something you enjoy and people are bashing you for it. These people need to get a life. Don't think other production companies are laughing thier tails off about this one. Keep on keeping on dude!

 

[Adam]

Heartbreaking. That's all I can really say about this. No one deserves that crap... particularly a young lady who was doing something that, not only she enjoys, but thought the community would as well. I'd like to think that the vast majority of us do appreciate Tortuga/Enny, and what she has contributed to the TMF. Leave it to a pathetic bunch of idiots to ruin her experience (again!). And folks wonder why more females don't flock to these message boards. Who can blame them? 🙁
