When you're a photographer being pursuited by a fauxtographer

(I thought they'd fixed the cir***stance problem?)

hmm seems they haven't --- the techs are aware - I think it might be waiting for someone to authorise or change something.

Just yesterday, I was reminded of a story about Arthur Conan Doyle--I've seen several versions of the story and none of them are likely to be true, but it's humorous, and might apply quite nicely to your situation.

It's said that at a dinner party he hosted, Doyle suggested that EVERY one has a "skeleton in the closet," something they would do almost anything to hide from the public. Others disagreed and they decided to put his notion to a test. They selected a man they all knew as a "good, Christian man" of high character and honor, held in the highest regard by all who knew him. Doyle then sent him an anonymous letter that said simply, "All is discovered. Flee at once." The man disappeared shortly afterward and was never heard from again.

Actually, I've been thinking about sending all the US congressmen/women a similar note. Good way to "clean house." :lmao:

If you ignore her things can still go ugly, be polite and decline her offer.

Yes, it IS silly when the censorship is getting this intrusive. I received a PM from someone who used the word "Kumberland" only with a C instead of a K; if I hadn't happened to have read that censorship thread, I'd be wondering why on earth they kept putting asterisks in that word!

We now return you to your regularly scheduled thread...

Be polite like me and tell her to **** off

Be honest, be nice... but tell her you are not interested in taking pictures for her. Don't give any other reasons (which could be fodder for more trouble no matter what the reasoning), just that you do not want to do pictures for her.

Sometimes we forget we have control over who and what we take pictures of.
