All the "animations" are stolen. If you visit any of the "free GIF"
sites, you'll notice that they all say they're not to be used for
"commercial purposes". Commercial use invariably comes at a stiff
premium (where you have to pay for renting the copyright). He's also
using a picture of Walt Disney's "Goofy" and I know for a fact that the
people at Disney would never condone such use or allow anyone the
"rights" (I know because I investigated using one of the songs from
"Alladin" on a client's website and was told flat out they wouldn't
allow it). At one point in time Sabodish displayed a Jewish menorah
alongside the Nazi flag. That wound up getting him booted by his
hosting service *and* his registrar. The site (and all of his other
ones) were "down" for months. Bass crowed that he was responsible for
shutting it down, but I don't think he was the only one that filed
complaints about it. You'll notice that he's now using an anonymous
hosting provider and registering agency.
You'll also notice that anyone that's ever "disagreed" with the
webmaster (or held "his bud", Mike up for ridicule) is also "featured".
I'm actually flattered that I've been "singled out". It's a fairly
accurate measure of how much I've managed to piss him off over the
years. Since I switched to "Mozilla", I don't see the Microsoft "Help
Wizard" flitting across my screen (that's probably the single most
irritating thing on the site because he appears every time you return to
the menu page if you're using IE). If Sabodish knew anything at all
about using "cookies", he'd engage the one Robert uses to control the
pop-up/pop-under advertising at bassburglaralarms.com to make sure "the
Wizard" only appears once per visit.
Mike should stick to ensuring all the Usenet posts he uses on his site
to document Robert's activities are in fact accurate representations of
the Google searches they say they are. He frequently munges addresses
and snips the sig lines of the people he doesn't like which only serves
to highlight his own rather childish and egocentric behavior. The most
telling page is the famous bassburglaralarms.com "error message" page
which winds up pointing to his own online venture (alarmsuperstore.com).
It would be fairly easy to "clear" the link to bassburglaralarms if
he doesn't want to "promote search engine positioning".
FWIW, goofysplace (and it's sister site http://www.bassburglaralarm.com)
are amusing and also somewhat sad. It documents two individuals' rather
twisted mindsets (Robert's being one of the most truly evil on Usenet).
