im sorry, i know this is the wrong, but is there a right forum for this. mods/admin feel free to move this to where you decide it should be ok? i JUST resieved an email from Stauffer, Doug (NBC) i know its rude to post an email, but this i took offence at this email. Quote:
February 11, 2003 I work for THE JOHN WALSH SHOW and I'm hoping that you can help us out. We are currently doing a show that focuses on the story of Brandon Vedas. If you have any information regarding the events that took place on January 11th please contact us. Whether you were in the chat room at the time or knew Brandon personally your help regarding the story would be greatly appreciated by us and Brandon's family. Please understand we are not looking to place blame on anyone. The point of our show is to spread awareness about what happened to Brandon Vedas so that it never happens again. We also want those who log on the internet to respect the responsibility we all have when we are encountered with a situation such as the one that took Brandon Vardas's life. We can be reached any time at 1-866-XXX-XXX ext XXXX or ext XXXX. We can also answer any questions about who John Walsh is or any specific questions about the show. Thank you and we look forward to hearing from you soon.
there is a long list of names of others he sent this too. PLEASE for the sake of the shroomery, and for ripper,, please dont answer this email. or if you do kindly say no comment. i want to add, if you reply to this email at all, MATURITY is a must, who knows how many of these responces will be revealed on the show btw who the hell is john walsh?

Thank You for mentioning this.... I just got my e-mail today and had to refrain from writing back with every swear word in creation.
First of all....what kind of sources does he think he's gonna get?? A select few of the people here knew Brandon... most only posted their sympathies...
This guy is a perfect example of the media going to all lengths to get their "story".
SICK SICK SICK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Let me assure you that this guy is legitimate. We as a family have made the decision to appear on this show in order to increase awareness on some of the issues surrounding Brandon's death.
Whether or not any of you individually choose to talk with him is up to you. However, as I have stated previously there is no effort being made to cast the entire Shroomery in a bad light. In fact, if everyone is unwilling to talk, it actually makes the entire site look worse than the reality of the situation.
Maturity as someone noted is key. If you have no first hand knowledge of that night or if you are not officially representing the site, it may not be wise to reply.
Please e-mail with any questions rvedas@hotmail.com

That is correct. Please direct all queries to Thor@shroomery.org
Your comments will be taken out of context. Please let Thor handle the media situation.

Yes he was. That show was canceled. He has a new show now.
I'd like to express how important it is to dirrect all contact from the media to Thor.
Thank you!

You guys should know that:
1) I am communicating regularly with Thor and he is doing a great job with handling aspects of the media. So I wasn't trying to get anyone to talk, just simply saying don't jump to conclusions on the motivations of the show.
2) You should also know that I would not agree to participate in any program that was simply seeking to vilify you guys or get a hot quote to use out of context.
My efforts in speaking out are only about bringing something positive out of all this. Placing blame or not focusing on proactive solutions will not accomplish this and are therefore not my focus. Nor will I allow them to be the focus of any program I participate in. I know this may sound suspect, but there has been a lot of competition to get this story, and decisions have been made under certain conditions of story development.

Thanks Rich, I'm sure you have no negatave motives towards the shroomery, it's just that we are also very shook up by this whole thing.

Yeah, I think people forget that Thor is our spokesperson, and that he is in regular communication with you.
I hope everything is going well for you in these difficult times.

I had no negative intentions towards the shroomery either, and yet I am banned from the IRC network for even saying anything about this.
Good luck at the interview Rich.... I think it has been done... I think your brother has not died in vein

That chat server has been taken offline indefinitely. We need to seriously consider its potential for misuse, and its future on our site. Just thought you should know the reason you can't connect. It has nothing to do with you personally.
Peace,

They have relocated it to another server which I should probably not reveal here... but with that being said.. things like this happen. I have no anger towards it.
I feel that I have done good.

because it's on another network, there is no official connection to the shroomery, so the administration here cannot help you if you are banned. i would take the issue up with members via email/PM who banned you.
