Poor guys would have to use Facebook.
But then Metroid would lose all contact with his precious emos.
When I saw that tribe website based in San Fran I thought maybe it was going to be an online gay community. I was dissapointed.
I'm sure you were.
Actually I haven't really checked out Tribe that much but it seems pretty cool. My lady Shannon is all about though, it's neat because you can do searches for different types things that interest you, whether it be sports, art, cooking, types of music or whatever and join those particular "tribes." Shannon is a member of a healthy cooking tribe, a pit bull tribe, a fire dancing tribe, and a burning man tribe among others.

I saw 2-3 mentions of BM on the front page and just assumed that was probably why you knew about the place.
"We have helped guests and potential guests in the past when they need financial assistance to come on the show -- assisting with clothing allowance, lost wages, accommodations, travel and necessities," Corigliano wrote. "In this case, certain staff members went beyond our guidelines (re the bail being paid). These staff members have been spoken to and our policies reiterated. In addition, we have decided not to go forward with the story as our guidelines have been compromised."
They aren't doing the show and they at least say they reprimanded the people who posted the bail. I think that they handled the situation very well in not going through with it. Somebody did really screw up though in doing this.
Meanwhile, some families of the six girls and two boys accused in the videotaped beating have received death threats from across the country after their addresses and phone numbers were posted on the Internet, inside a YouTube video.
The YouTube video called for the public to take action, saying, "let your voices be heard."
The video then posts the girl's names, their phone numbers, addresses and other information.
That's just wrong. Let the justice take its course. No reason to post their private information on the internet. Sure, it is sort of the classic eye for an eye, let the public do to them what they did to her, but that's not how the county is run. Leave it to the proper course of action.

The fault is in that they did this in the first place. What does it matter that after the fact they decided not to put them on the show? This was still done as a ratings stunt, the only difference is that they caught hell for doing it before they actually put these people on the air.
I don't care what they're saying now to CYA. They still bailed this person out.

So yeah, I read the article.
I got the idea from the article that it wasn't something that Dr. Phil did, but something an ambitious staff member was out of line in doing. I guess I could be guilty of being gullible too though. I just got the gist from your post that you thought he was still going on with the show.
The best option is not to fight at all but when you have to do it 1 on 1. If you can't beat someone down by yourself and need the assistance of others then you are a wuss and should refrain from fighiting all together.
They are gonna learn the hard way because the word is out.
