A photographer on this site was entirely inappropriate in an email to me, cursing and a very rude. He broke the rules for use of this site, where do I go from here? I don't think people like that should be ( and aren't) allowed on this site. Are there any steps I can take?

I am a little confused, why would a photographer send you an email cussing you out for no reason? There had to have been a reason.....

I took two days to respond to his very confusing emails. And it apparently upset him a great deal.

There had to have been a reason?  On this planet, people do things because they just suddenly feel like it.  I guess you can call that a reason.  Not much of one, though.

I just think some one would have to be CRAZY to write someone they dont even know and begin cursing. He had to be cursing about something......

He was cursing because she did not respond to his emails.....which is also CRAZY so either way he's a LOSER lol

Report him to the mods of the site. Someone doing something like that is just going to ruin things for himself. He'll have a hard time finding work for himself now.


Dont let anyone talk to you especially if they want to work with you.

Yea report him, hopefully the community can police itself and maintain some sort of professionalism. Keep all messages and emails for proof.

You're lucky I didn't e-mail you. I give models 30 minutes to respond or I just completely lose it!!

Ha. That took me 1 minute and 33 seconds to figure out. A genius could have done it in less than a minute. wink

What rock do you live under? It's the internet, welcome. He is burning his bridges being rude to people and it will hurt his business. Just ignore people like that and move on.

Well no harm done.  Just be thankful he showed his true colors before you decided to work w/him.
Count your blessings and move on.

Isn't there a way of blocking users?  Isn't that enough? 

Rules or not, I can't imagine trying to have someone thrown off the site because they were rude or cussed at me.
