Behind the scenes: Mails and messages we get

[bobh]

Hi Brian and other screeners,

It is sad to think that you guys sometimes have to deal with emails like these and I would hope that they are extremely rare. Perhaps we don't say it often enough, but I'm sure most people are very grateful for all the hard work that you do. Whenever I have written an email asking for help with a rejection your advice has been very welcome and has, hopefully, improved my skills.
The anonymity of the internet isn't always a good thing!
Again, it is sad this happens and chin up

Hi Brian.
In june 2014 you wrote:

Could I request and remind all crew that if you are going to post a mail here you need to remove any and all identification evidence regarding the author. This is a public forum. Identification of persons is not acceptable.
If you have a personal issue please use the PM facility to keep it personal.

And yesterday you did this:

All of you c***s can go f**k your self's. i have waited over 2 week for you to screen them and now you tell me its bad quality. Well I bet most people aren't going to give a f**k if my photos were not level. The first thing I look at when I look at my friends pictures on Instagram is not how f****n level the photo is, but what airline and plane it. people could give a f**k at how soft a photo is, all they want to see is photos of aircraft.
Oh and one again go f**k your self's your c**k sucking c**ts

No question the mail is not acceptable, but posting e-Mail adresses isn't ok either

Remark: I removed the E-Mail adress inside the quotation i did.

I copied and pasted and was so angry that I forgot all about the fact that this was in a public forum and not the crew forum.
Apologies.
By the way, you should see the follow up emails that I got from him in my personal email. Let's just say that if I ever meet him in the flesh he needs to hope that I don't have a gun handy !!

A long story made short.....

He sent me equally abusive and included comments about the size of my penis () . As the emails were sent to my private address and not copied to JP I told him that this was now personal so I could say what I liked......and boy, did I say what I liked ! I advised him that his wife, girlfriend and mother had no complaints when I got off them. I don't think that went down too well !
He carried on with how he could use different emails because each time I replied to him I blocked the email address that he used. He did use different mails so I played him like a fish, replied in the same vein as he spoke to me and then promptly blocked each mail. It took him a while to figure out that he was doing all the work creating new email addresses, writing his filth only to have me read it for 10 seconds, copy, paste and block. Oh, such fun
He claimed to be a USAF pilot to me but he has shut up now since I tracked him down on Facebook and reminded him that he had told the world that he worked as a pilot for Air New Zealand.
Bit of twat really ?
Good fun while it lasted and I'm ready for the next one now !

Hahaha good one Brian.

When that guy is rude to everyone in is life he probably doesn't have a wife/girlfriend

[JetSetGB]

Truly unbelievable stuff! such a rage for just some photos ?
Off topic: It is really commendable that there are serious efforts in bringing the queue down to less than 2 weeks
Best wishes to the new screeners!

Girish

We're getting an impressive number of abusive and rude appeals lately... and that mainly from people with none or less than 10 pics in the database...

reminds me that Beatles song...
Hello, Good bye !!!

Probably all those 13 year olds who just got a T3 / D3300 for their birthday and think they're the best photographers on the internet. The kind of people who maybe should stick to instagram.

Guess FR24 is one of the main reasons for these trolls.

And another one. No pics in the database, two uploads, both rejected, one appealed with the message "F**k you bad screeners".
The easy way to an instant permanent ban.
The one before this one was from a female ! With the language she used I hesitate to use the description "Lady" !!

Instagram !! More like a sheet of plain paper and crayons !

Starting an appeal with :

"Are you kidding ?" isn't exactly a good idea either....
