Where is Daniella?

Go to last post
...it's just a camera forum after all....not the internet security story of the year.

Then please enlighten me as to why other people have warned (outside of reading rules), even multiple times, before being banned.

I don't believe she was warned. What sense would there be in ignoring a warning, only to get banned, and recreate a new account and follow the rules. Besides, she only broke the 'rule' once, and that was clearly by acciden.

Daniella has been around these forums, this one and others, for a
long time. If she was out scamming for money, she sure took her
sweet time doing it. I just can't buy that explaination. The truth
is, somebody in a post some time back, brought up the idea of her
selling her photos. That was what triggered the whole thing I
beleive. And unless she put somebody up to posting that request,
which I doubt, then it was a simple mistake where the punishment
did not fit the crime.

That's true, you do have a point about never knowing who a person
really is on the web. I know i've always been one that was honest
and always told it the way it is about myself and other things. but
you do have a point though, you have to be careful these days.

Whew...good thing the store portion of your site isn't up and running yet. You could get banned for posting that link once it is.

Wrong, I have no grudges or dislike for a person I don't know. Just analytical opinions based on my unbiased observations of activity here that relates to my skilled occupation identifying fraudsters and their manipulative ways :P

I never said I was right, it could be a she and she could be really cute and I could have bought a really nice picture of a Joshua Tree for a really low price, maybe.

C'est la vie

How do you know it's a her?

Just because the name Daniella was used?

In my experience when someone is manipulating a forum for personal
gain they are typically misrepresenting themselves in other ways,
there is every chance that Daniella is Male - aged 39 - balding and
with bad breath.

Very true. Just as there is every chance that you're a 12 year old
using daddies computer to come here while you're waiting for your
porn to download. Doesn't mean that either case is likely.

Personally, I tend to take people at their word until they have
given me a reason not to. Obviously Daniella has done something to
give you that reason. I haven't seen anything that qualifies in my
book, but each to their own.

Of course, there's always the chance that you've got a personal
grudge against Daniella, and are trying to manipulate this forum
against her for personal reasons...

No and I happen to be Jewish so I am offended by your statement.

Such reference to the Gestapo is uncalled for and over the top.

No offense intended, but why should we believe that you are Jewish? You are after all the one saying that since there is no way of knowing anything about other people on the web that we shouldn't trust what other people say about themselves. Or does that only apply to certain people?

Are you the same type of person who's offended by the English language when it's used in ways like "Let's chop the tree down, the chop it up?! - makes no sense!".

Which is exactly what a manipulative fraudster would say if they did have a grudge against someone. :)

Doesn't seem much of an unbiased opinion to me. The evidence seems to me to be a bit thin for such a long stretch. From what I can tell one of your main peices of "evidence" against her is that she posted a lot and was very helpful to others. Should we assume that everyone that posts a lot and is helpful is trying to manipulate us?

And my understanding is that she posted a single reference to a site where her photos could be purchased, after several people asked her to do so. I don't know, as I didn't see the thread before (presumably) it was deleted.

And we have no reason to believe what you claim about your occupation. As you said, fraudsters are very manipulative, which is what you seem to be doing here.

Personally, as far as Danielle is concerned, I don't really care one way or another. It isn't my place to second guess the guy that runs this place. He was obviously convinced that she shouldn't be allowed here any longer. It's his sandbox, he gets to make the rules, and enforce them however he wants. If I don't like it, I'm sure I could find another forum to read. As far as her photos go, I liked some of them, and didn't like others, amazingly enough. I honestly wasn't very impressed with the photo that seems to have gotten her in trouble. A bit to over-processed for my taste.

Hopefully you are an adult and can make that decision for yourself.

I am not going to try to prove who I am, it's up to you to decide that for yourself, I respect your logic and I agree there is absolutely no reaosn you should trust me unless you want to.

My perception of what HE or SHE did :-

1. Persistently creating/replying to threads and creating messages
to build up trust and increase popularity, the purpose behind this
being to develop a trusted position on the forum and gain followers
/ visitors to HIS / HER website.
Click to expand...
Or it could've been due to her desire to be helpful and boast about
her pics.
Archermoo said:
2. Frequent references to 'her' website that sells prints.
Click to expand...
Never noticed any references to a website that sells prints, but as
I'm not really interested in such things in general, I could easily
have seen it and just not noticed.
Archermoo said:
My analysis :-

Manipulating the forum for personal $$$ gain.

Is that clear?
Click to expand...
Crystal. You don't like her, and assume that the whole reason she
was here was in an attempt to manipulate people into buying her
photographs. All of the time and effort she invested in providing
assistance and advice that a seemingly large percentage of posters
found useful was all a smokescreen so that she could sell a few
prints. Unless she was expecting to get a huge turnout, it seems
to be a bit of an inefficient use of time to me, unless her prints
were selling for rather large sums of money.

I've seen her post many times that it was taken with a filter - a gold polariser (I think) and not processed any more than any of her usual workflow, which is certainly less than I personally usually do.

So many photos, so little time . . .

I indeed can and in fact have. As I said in another post which you may or may not have seen, I generally assume that people are telling the truth until they give me a reason not to. You've come close with what seems to me to be an unwarranted vendetta against Danielle, but haven't really stepped over the line. I was just pointing out the potential hypocracy in the situation. In my experience people who aren't willing to give others the benefit of the doubt rarely deserve it themselves.

I don't have any personal experience with her advice, but with the number of people that have posted that they miss her advice, I thought it was a reasonable assumption that she had provided them with some.
