The thread is aimed at “if the cap fits wear it” people..you know if it does or not Just post if ya worried i’ll fight PB for ya hell he’s older than I am even :wink:
And i think Tinkerbell has a decent idea no posts for say i dunno ..6 month .. and the account is deleted ?You fools! Kate’s got at least two characters on this thread alone. :roll: Sadly you cant spot her like I can.
I dont see the point of the thread either. The people that complained about the “abuse” on the boards have now got what they wanted- A gay little Message Board with a “nice atmosphere”.

6 April, 2009 at 6:43 pm #394362Details of user e-mails and net phone calls will be stored by internet service providers (ISPs) from Monday under an EU directive.
The plans were drawn up in the wake of the London bombings in 2005.
ISPs and telecoms firms have resisted the proposals while some countries in the EU are contesting the directive.
Jim Killock, executive director of the Open Rights Group, said it was a “crazy directive” with potentially dangerous repercussions for citizens.
All ISPs in the European Union will have to store the records for a year. An EU directive which requires telecoms firms to hold on to telephone records for 12 months is already in force.
The data stored does not include the content of e-mails or a recording of a net phone call, but is used to determine connections between individuals.
Authorities can get access to the stored records with a warrant.
Governments across the EU have now started to implement the directive into their own national legislation.
The UK Home Office, responsible for matters of policing and national security, said the measure had “effective safeguards” in place.
ISPs across Europe have complained about the extra costs involved in maintaining the records. The UK government has agreed to reimburse ISPs for the cost of retaining the data.
Mr Killock said the directive was passed only by “stretching the law”.
The EU passed it by “saying it was a commercial matter and not a police matter”, he explained.
“Because of that they got it through on a simple vote, rather than needing unanimity, which is required for policing matters,” he said.
He added: “It was introduced in the wake of the London bombings when there was a sense of shock in Europe. It was used to push people in a particular direction.”
Sweden has decided to ignore the directive completely while there is a challenge going through the German courts at present.
“Hopefully, we can see some sort of challenge to this directive,” said Mr Killock.
Isabella Sankey, Policy Director at Liberty, said the directive formalised what had already been taking place under voluntary arrangement for years.
“The problem is that this regime allows not just police to access this information but hundreds of other public bodies.”
In a statement, the Home Office said it was implementing the directive because it was the government’s priority to “protect public safety and national security”.
It added: “Communications data is the where and when of the communication and plays a vital part in a wide range of criminal investigations and prevention of terrorist attacks, as well as contributing to public safety more generally.
“Without communications data resolving crimes such as the Rhys Jones murder would be very difficult if not impossible.
“Access to communications data is governed by the Regulation of Investigatory Powers Act 2000 (Ripa) which ensures that effective safeguards are in place and that the data can only be accessed when it is necessary and proportionate to do so.”
Please note, in an earlier version of this story we incorrectly stated that ISPs would be storing details of website visits. This is not the case.

These type of things are a slippery slope, and having the data kept for extended periods of time means it can easily be compromised as was proven by the AOL search engine data fiasco a few years ago. Since then companies like Google and Yahoo have slashed their retention times to the minimum.
No, I’ve got nothing to hide, but I really dont want someone poking through my e-mail’s and poking through the Websites I visit even if it is to catch criminals.
It’s also worth noting that a smart criminal is certainly gonna be anonymizing themselves on the net anyway.

Apparently … the top three lies in the world are:
1. Of course I love you darling.
2. The cheque’s in the post
3. I promise I won’t come in your mouth.
Moving on…..
The main lies told in chatrooms (especially in PC):
1 – involve the user’s age, (why is it always so much younger than reality? 25 and up for it usually means 55 and past it.)
2 – or the size of their ‘appendages’ (men are always uncharacteristically enormous – 9inches or, God help us, even more; and women’s breasts are always big and never small; or ‘firm’ and ‘shapely’ but never like Spaniel’s ears)
3 – or their bodily proportions ( men are always ‘fit and women are always ‘petite’ or ‘slim’ and neither sex ever has a pot belly or big hips & bum.).
4 – Married men always say they are single and never ever think about a bit on the side do they?
5 – Married women always say they are divorced or separated but can never take phone calls in the evenings.
You ever tried to pass yourself off as 25 PB?
