Well, now it looks like I can't be on mutliple WebRings.
Now Kelly's husband Dan Vath demands that I remove content from my page.
What do you think? Is my site sexist or inappropriate?
I don't think so. Yet, Kelly wants to keep me from joining "her" WebRing.
Please support me by sending her email, asking that I be placed on the ring.
Thanks,
-Wendi
Date: Thu, 11 Jun 1998 15:34:45 -0400 From: Nudism Web RingmasterTo: wlarson@area.com Subject: Nudism Web Ring standards Wendi, I have moved your site to the queue for the reasons below. You have until 6 pm EDT Saturday 13 June, roughly 48 hours from now, to correct these problems before I remove you from the Ring altogether. 1. You must remove your link to the Dreamgirls of the Web, and the corresponding web ring fragment. This is a porn site, and therefore an inappropriate link from within the Nudism Web Ring. 2. Remove the lascivious comments to your own pictures, e.g. "Hot Body." I don't believe for a second that you're talking about your body temperature. 3. Remove this page and your link to it: http://www.area.com/wlarson/Email.html . This is a grossly inappropriate, and ineffective, way to resolve a dispute. Let me tell you a secret: the Ringmaster of the Women's Nudist Web Ring, Kelly, is my wife. Now, Kelly is more than capable of fighting her own battles, that's not why I've taken this action. In fact, when I saw your site listed in the queue for her Ring I told her (in advance) that she wouldn't like it, and that I was about to remove it from mine. No, copying her very polite email onto your website only _sped_ up my intent to remove you from the Ring by a couple of days. It is also the reason for the stern tone of this email. In short: you've pissed me off, lady. For someone who claims to be a Mensa member, you have a very immature and obnoxious way of dealing with a disagreement. And it won't work! So correct those three items listed above by Saturday afternoon or remove the Web Ring fragment. No discussion, no debate, no bullshit. You can copy this email to your website, too, and I'll take that as signifying that you've no intention of bringing your site up to Nudism Web Ring standards, and will delete it from the Ring without further ado. Plus, I'll have a talk with your webhost. Dan Vath ringmaster@ticktockcroc.com http://www.ticktockcroc.com/ring Subject: Your Site Addition Request Hi Wendi I thank you for your request to be submitted to the Women's Nudism Web Ring. I have looked at your site, and unfortunately at this time, I do not feel that I can add your site for the following reasons: 1) Your site has links to other adult sites which are inappropriate for a nudism web site. Nudism, as I'm sure you know, is not at all about sex and some (if not most) members would find this link offensive. 2) You refer several times to your own pictures as being "hot" which implies a sexual connotation, and again this inappropriate for a nudism site. If you are willing to remove these, or decide to change your site in anyway that is more in line with nudist/naturist values and want to be reconsidered, I'd be more than happy to look at your site again. Thank you. Kelly - Women's Nudism Web Ring ringmaster1@ticktockcroc.com
