Exactly. I wasn't questioning Kronas' morals in that post, but just pointing out that the moment we comment on someone's morals and ethics, we expose our own to scrutiny.

So for those who feel it neccessary to criticise Im for doing this, I'd have to ask why aren't they posting on CF each month about whoever is appearing on that month's issue of Maxim, FHM, Loaded etc.

I don't. I say good luck to her..

no offence but you do that all the time~(suggest your morally correct that is). In the thread over the video you were quite hard on a number of members who expressed there views and you were adamant that she would never do such a thing. Now in this thread you even tell you photgraphed her in a suggestive manner so what are we ment to see in that? I have not wanted to say anything cuz your a mod and in the far distant past we have had our set to but I frankly just dont understand

there are a few reasons...

i dont buy/watch/view the pictures in the magazine(s)

i dont know whos going to be in it as this thread was posted to highlight something thats when i made my comments

for the people who actively take part in photoshoots and 'videos' they are leaving themselves open to public scrutiny because they are in the public eye, thats the purpose of these magazines, you get a bit of publicity and satisfy other peoples....tastes

No I don't. I have never commented on someone else's morals.

No, I was hard on people who were judging her and don't even know her.

It helps if you bother to check the facts first. I took a number of non-offensive pictures of her for the radio station website. If I wanted to be morally bankrupt, I could have sold the pictures to the press as soon as she was announced in BB but frankly my friends are worth more to me than that and as you may have noticed, I'm viciously loyal to them.

to the point of defending them in the face of overwhelming evidence...

all I had to go on was your very own words "Actually I took about 50 shots of her about 3 years ago of her sprawled across the floor - she had this tiny white bikini on and of course...I was very professional about it.

*Cough*" sorry if you didnt actually mean it how you definately posted it

I can see what you are getting at and it's a superficially beguiling argument. The problem with it is that if I was perhaps offered a lot of money to kill someone, and I did; I would be the one blamed......she didn't have to accept the money and do the deed.....the fault is hers and hers alone (imo)......but I don't blame her, I'd do the same myself if I was offered the money!

Yep, that's up there with 'never deliberately hurting someone in the ring'

Yes, because at the time all we had was 'it looks like her'.

I'd posted some them on here in the past explaining they were for the website, I was under the impression you'd seen them and commented on them, apologies if that's not the case. But it's cleared up now.

As above. And being a mod doesn't mean people can't make comment in the same way they'd do to anyone else.

16-12-2006, 20:54

no but you did ban me before so obviously im gonna be wary(I did deserve it btw im not saying I didnt )

Perhaps because whoever is appearing in the mag isn't already a topic of discussion on CF

...and I'm not criticizing her, far from it. She is seizing her chance with both hands and making the most of it

Russ · 16-12-2006, 21:01

I'd need to check the Girls You Lust Over thread first but I'd say that's highly unlikely.

now if thats how you comment and talk about taking pictures of a freind then im definately under the wrong impression that the maxim interview is ok

Russ · 16-12-2006, 21:07

I really don't see the problem. Kronas seems to be under the impression that doing an underwear photoshoot is somehow immoral (as is his right) and that the comments in that interview are in some way worse than those featured in any other interview. Everyone is entitled to their views obviously, I just don't see what singles out Imogen for the special treatment. She's not done anything worse than hundred of other women in her position in the past surely? Or am I missing something due to being biased in favour of my friend? Or is the fact she's my friend the issue?

16-12-2006, 21:09

again dude I dont mean any offence in this but its simply only blown up on here as it has cuz your here and I dont mean that against you
