futuredivot 0 #1 March 29, 2009 With the explosion of myspace, facebook, etc.-Has anyone altered or toned down their boogie antics due to fear of becoming an internet star? Will such concerns have a negative impact on attendees being able to let their hair down when the beer light goes on? Personally, I'm hyper careful because I'm not willing to bet that even if it doesn't matter what photos are online now, it won't EVER matter.You are only as strong as the prey you devour Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

skydiver30960 0 #4 March 29, 2009 Meh, I think that while certain people may slow down a bit, there will still always be fuckery because, if nothing else, alcohol is a very impressive social lubricant. I'm a fan of some of the discussions here, like the idea of a "camera free zone" at SkyFest or whatever. Elvisio "I just bit into a red pepper seed, DAMN!"

diablopilot 2 #12 March 29, 2009 I wasn't a believer when someone first said it, but there needs to be camera free zones, or hours..... the nudity, and shenanigans levels in this sport have been dropping right off the map.---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are.

benblee 0 #13 March 29, 2009 Quote I wasn't a believer when someone first said it, but there needs to be camera free zones, or hours..... the nudity, and shenanigans levels in this sport have been dropping right off the map. Can't argue with that point. If people have to remember something, they may shy away from doing it. ....buuuuuut, I can say that I think the vibe at the St. Patty's Day Boogie was pretty awesome due to social networking stuff. People who had previously never met but on the forums and on facebook were looking to meet up at the boogie and it seemed like people were introducing themselves to each other more so than normal. Spence throws boogies with good vibes anyways, but it seems like while the fuckery may seem like it's going down (you may be in the wrong tent ), the clickery may also be going down and people are hanging out in bigger and bigger groups again.

twitter 0 #14 March 29, 2009 Quote Camera Free Zone is code for "Find innovative ways to hide a camera because this is where the good stuff will happen"! I concur. If someone is offering a "camera free zone", it's totally because they've already got a hidden camera set up there. Or at least that's what I would do.

In your case you shouldn't be concerned either~I don't think they made a flash card big enough hold a picture of yer immenseness...so not to worry.

JerryBaumchen 1,354 #22 March 29, 2009 Hi divot, What is interesting is that today's OREGONIAN newspaper has a substantial article on: 'Sexting: Dumb prank or child porn? It seems as though a few young, teenage girls were at a party when a photo was taken and electronically distributed around. According to the article it had something to do with oral sex and an animal. The DA is considering a child porn prosecution of the girl who sent it around. In this state, that would be a Measure 11 crime ( a predetermined minimum sentence; judge has no discretion ) and a lifetime of being a registered sex offender.

The rule is NO CAMERAS... ...There are folks who volunteer their time to be security at this particular event. Folks who have tried to bring cameras/videos/cell phones, etc... in, have been kicked out. It works real good, and everyone knows they are safe from cameras there!

happythoughts 0 #25 March 29, 2009 I have boogie videos from WFFC that go back to 96 or 97. There was plenty of nudity and whatever. Those videos had limited circulation though. With the internet, digital cameras, and camera phones - your life is just a Google search away. I've probably been in a few pictures that people wouldn't approve of. In the past, personal weirdness, that should not be shared, happened at a campsite or trailer - out of public view. I don't think that things will change that much.
