Now that you mention it, if you get her and **Sunny D** in the same thread, you’ll could lose your night vision for a week.

**Kadmos1** is starting up with his “Let’s put Tarzan in the public domain” shit again. This time he’s asking for opinions from the law Dopers here.

I just did a search for all the threads he’s started. He’s started 18 threads, 10 of which (maybe more, I’m going on the titles) are about copyrights or trademarks. Certainly seems to have a bee in his bonnet about the subject.

The surprising thing about him (given his earliest history here) is that he stuck around to talk about other subjects, unlike so many other posters obsessed with a single topic.

Had to check but… no, not my fault.

…I turned on the bat signal for my fellow copyright anarchists (former forum moderators and users from a Torrent website) in Oct - he joined in Mar.

Our site included a Serious Debate forum and I thought the Great Debates forum here was a worthy analog, as well as the rest of the place being a generally nice scene 🙂

Unfortunately our previous vB home was most unfairly, but quite legally, removed from the series of tubes by the Motion Picture Association of America when they won the lawsuit.

I suspect his response to being boned, that being telling the mod to “fuck you,” was not the smartest move ever.

This is the end, beautiful friend  
This is the end, my only friend, the end  
Of our elaborate plans, the end  
Of everything that stands, the end  
No safety or surprise, the end  
I’ll never look into your eyes, again  
Can you picture what will be, so limitless and free  
Desperately in need, of some, stranger’s hand  
In a, desperate land

I could understand the obsession if **Kadmos1** had written a great novel or screenplay for a Tarzan story but was being held up by the copyright. But he admits to have written nothing. So why the obsession?

He’s a dingbat. A nice mod says contact me offline and we’ll help you out, and he says, no, I got this until you fuck me again. Well, alrighty. This is going to go well for you **jturd**.

Most of us took his IP ban as an omen from the Great God of the Internet. He thought it was merely a screw up. We need to sacrifice another troll to GGoI so this works out better next time.

I’d be willing to go as high as a Tarzan lover and a bellicose Jerusalem as capital is great guy. It does seem unfair to the rest of the Philippines though.
