Man sues chatroom pals: I was humiliated beyond what 'no man could endure'

[Francisco d'Anconia]

Although I am a proponent of online dating, I always questioned the appeal of just hanging out in chat rooms. There's a huge difference between using the Net to make an initial connection which leads to a face to face meeting and just hanging out and chatting as the primary form of personal interaction. It's like going out to a dance club just to watch other people; but I digress...

Man sues chatroom pals: I was humiliated beyond what 'no man could endure'

i went to the link and i read it and this is what it seems to be:
1. bunch of people on a chat room venting and spilling their guts as normal
just like in any chat room
2. regulars who chat their when they have nothing else to do make friendships with some and tease others. just like in any chat room.
3. one guy says the other guy drove to his state to take pictures of his home and post them and go to the court house to find dirt on him, the other guy says he didnt. either way, court house records are public and taking a picture of a house isnt a crime either.
(not that i want someone doing this to me either)
4. now the other guy wants to countersue for things said about his grandma dying.

moral of the story:
dont tell anyone online things you dont want them to find out and say later or tease you with, and as always chat rooms have trolls.


question of the story:
who really has time to drive 8 hours to take pictures of someones house and post them online, just to be an internet troll???
