"*Using a large quantity of deodorant to hide an unwashed smell."

Yup, yup, yup. That would be me. The great and powerful Besig has spoken. Now it's back to the animal porn and leather stirrups for me. Next stop: crazy town. Here I goooooooooooo [/quote]

Here's how the quoted drivel would come across to a critical thinker:

"I'm so lazy, if breathing weren't automatic, I'd need someone to keep pumping my chest. I'm proof that a woman can live without a brain. That's why I think it's funny talking about Spanish showers, animal porn and BDSM! You see, I could goooooooo on about being a writer. But, in reality, I'm the Chawinpon Jesada Jumpanunt of the freelance writing world!" -- Jeremy "Top Gun" Ace Pilot

Demand Studios Sucks Troll Against Kathy Kindred--It's all About Jealousy!

"OK. You guys are gonna be flabbergasted; I am NOT AT ALL successful without Demand Media Studios." -- Phony Kathy Kindred

"P.S. Whew! Admitting that I'm a complete failure without DMS *WAS* liberating." -- Phony Kathy Kindred

Don't they wish? Most of the people that are driven to gripe on the DSS forums had DMS as their main, or sole, client. Heaven forbid that someone among them isn't in the same boat as they are. The woman they're attacking apparently is able to take on travel writing assignments.

 "I googled "Kathy Kindred travel" to see what all the hype is about. Her non-DMS writing doesn't appear until the third or fourth page. From what I can tell, Kathy Kindred is to travel writing what Sarah Pike is to technology writing. To wit, if she hadn't poisoned the well, she'd be the top candidate for DMS's travel writing consultant position." -- JUST ANOTHER SOCKPUPPET

This poster acknowledges that Kathy Kindred does travel writing. I also agree with his assessment of her writing. A look at her travel articles shows her to be a pack runner, toward the end of the pack. Her quality of writing, and storytelling, isn't the norm for what you'd find in International Travel, Conde Nast, or a similar quality publication.

Sock Puppet missed the point behind his/her own statement on Kathy's writing. If Kathy could do something like that, then certainly, so could the woman behind "Sock Puppet." I remember, at a writing conference, where marketers and publishers showed examples of query letters. Many of the letters they showed fit the Demand Media Studios "zombie writing" style that the DSS posters criticize.

Some of these zombie-writing-style letters earned the writer a written assignment. What does that say about "Sock Puppet" and some of the other DSS posters?

Instead of turning a website into an adult version of the recess playground, these people should be following Kathy Kindred's footsteps. If they feel that they're writers, they too could get into travel writing, or some other writing niche. They have to work for that though.

"Don't forget to send me money via PayPal (PM me for my account info.)." -- Phony Kathy Kindred

The phony was trying to be funny. Behind the phony humor, there's a point that the faker joker misses.

Perhaps if these trolls offered to pay Kathy Kindred for her advice on how to navigate the travel writing world, she might help them out. She can't possibly do all the travel writing articles in the world that need to be done.

Many of the Demand Sucks posters had a hair up their hind ends when they assumed that I wanted money from them. There's a possibility that other writers had offered to mentor them... for a decent fee.

These writers worked hard to build their writing business. They got to a point to where they got steady business and income. Why should they just give that away for free? Time they spend helping a writer is time they could be spending writing for paying clients.

These real writers would be happy to mentor a DSS poster. Their getting paid for that time would only be fair.

There's a lot of writing to do, for real clients. Unfortunately, clients aren't waiting by the phone in case a writer needs an assignment.

Kathy Kindred's articles showed the possibility that she may have travelled for her clients. This travel resulted in articles that her clients needed.

There's a process involved with getting writing assignments and projects. A Demand Studios Sucks poster could learn this process; instead of just bashing someone that knows that process. Perhaps these trolls could swallow their pride and talk to Kathy Kindred. If they're willing to pay her, perhaps she could give them some mentoring.

A woman with Kathy's track record could get herself some killer deals at the places that she travels too. A friendly query letter to an innkeeper, or a hotel/motel manager, could get her a nice discount... or a complementary stay.

Here's a cold hard reality for many of the DSS trolls that reply to the Demand Studios Sucks blog posts. They could become successful freelance writers, as in earn a decent living doing it, via two routes. They could take the hard route, by going nowhere or through trial and error. They could also cut all that down, and speed their way through this, by paying someone to mentor them.

Many DSS posters are spoiled with the idea of writing online, and getting a regular paycheck. For freelance writing, this isn't the norm. This is an arrangement you'd normally find in the Virtual Assistant profession. Freelance writers constantly have to network and market their skills if they're to keep a constant flow of work... and receive a "steady" paycheck.

Demand Media Studios was a fool's paradise for the freelance writing world.

If they want a future where writing gives them plenty of work, and plenty of money, they have to follow the path other writers have followed. They could spin their wheels and go nowhere; they could go through trial and error; or they could hire a mentor. They can't just sit around and expect someone to hand something to them for "free."

What good does it do the writer to give free assignments, and provide coaching behind that? Especially when that effort takes away from their own money making activities?

But again, many of the Demand Studios Sucks posters have an impressive immunity to the facts. They'll overlook the facts thinking that the DMS arrangement is common, and will always be available.

"Just for the record, I don't jet around the world. I stick to the tropical climates, if given the choice. I hate cold weather." Get your facts straight before you start spouting off where you think I've been traveling.[/quote]

DSS posters are too lazy to get the facts straight before flapping their lips. Speaking nonsense is too easy for them. Ignoring the facts is easier on their arrogance. Getting their facts straight would require them to see other people for who they really are. Facts get in the way of the world that many DSS posters want to see.

Heaven forbid that others have a track record, and are getting somewhere. These DSS trolls don't care about proof unless it portrays others as failures.

Page 1 News' PSYOP Fail on Demand Studios Sucks

What's really going on with this woman? She tries to make it sound like she's thrilled that people are talking about her. She talks about the traffic her clients get when people do talk about her. What's really happening? It bothers her greatly that others would talk about her on the "interwebs" in an unfavorable way.

The following quote is her attempt to use "reverse psychology." She tries to make people think that if they continue talking about her, they do her a big favor. Since they "don't" want to do her a big favor, they'd stop "talking about her." When they do that, she gets what she wants.

Now for the PSYOP fail:

[quote]Special Thanks to DSS Page 1 Posters

Postby Page1News » Sat Feb 11, 2012 10:41 pm

I've fully embraced my extremely loyal stalkers and want to thank them for keeping my name out there. Every time they post my full real name on the DSS front page, hits to my online stuff skyrocket!! :lol:

For this round, special thanks, hugs and kisses go to TheBesig and Bob Loblaw Law Blog. Keep up the good work. Free PR for the companies for which I work --- gotta love it! 8-)[/quote]

Well, since she didn't qualify this with "the phony," I'm going to address this as if she addressed me.

This is the first batch of posts where I've used "Kathy Kindred" on this blog. I previously used "Page1News." But, since she decided to throw "The Besig" into the mix, I might as well mention her real name.

Yes Kathy Kindred, when trolls search your name, they're going to look for you on the internet... but not for the good reasons. They're doing it out of morbid curiosity. They're also doing it to find more ammunition to use against you.

Matthis Chiroux is a Phony Afghanistan War Veteran

Matthis Chiroux isn't an Afghanistan Veteran, he's no authority on war related matters. He served in the Army, so he could call himself an Army Veteran. This fact should be reflected on his profiles.

He was stationed in Germany and in Japan. He never combat deployed to Afghanistan, or to any combat theater. Therefore, he's not entitled to be labeled as a war veteran. His unit sent him to Bagram Air Base for a week, on a journalist mission. This wasn't a combat mission. It wasn't a combat support, or combat service support mission. He was on a journalist mission.

While there, he never left the Forward Operating Base (FOB). He has shown pictures to try to prove that he left the FOB, but they fall short.

Only one picture shows him, and it's blatantly obvious that he's inside a building that's inside the FOB. His desert boots are too clean, and his blouse doesn't show signs of being "pressed" in by body armor. It should've also had signs of sweat where the armor would've contacted his chest. His M4 didn't have a mag loaded in... We always had a loaded mag in our M4s while out in sector. He didn't even have a rack system on.

He had a good amount of hair on his head. It shows signs that he was wearing a soft cap (patrol cap). He definitely wasn't wearing his advanced combat helmet (ACH). The ACH is more comfortable on the head when you have a "high and tight" hair cut. This is the haircut associated with the Marines. Continuous operations outside the FOB would've driven him to get a high and tight hair cut.

So, he never stepped foot outside the FOB. His journalist mission involved him interviewing Soldiers that were actually serving in Afghanistan. Consequently, his articles, about his "nightmares" and on what happens outside the FOB, are laughable at best, WTF factor at worst.

I can't see how someone could have nightmares about a place most combat Soldiers look forward to visiting. Compared to the combat outposts scattered throughout the country, FOBs like Bagram are "paradise." For a Soldier, that's like leaving Minnesota for the tropics during the winter.

Refit trips to these FOBs provide troops with a break in routine. It gives them the opportunity to get more advanced vehicle maintenance done; to purchase new tactical gear (unless the fobbits purchased them all); to get personal items that aren't available in the combat outposts; and to enjoy a taste of home at one of the FOB's fast food establishments. Choices include Burger King, Pizza Hut, Subway, Baskin-Robbins, Cinnabon, etc.,

They also have massage parlors, barber shops, souvenir shops, bazaars, etc. Some of these FOBs have PX and fast food franchise arrangements that makes them almost comparable to strip mall areas in the U.S.

So, the question is, why is this guy even writing war related articles? Outside of that week in Afghanistan, he was predominantly a garrison soldier. The information on him, releasable to the public, doesn't show him as being combat deployed. It doesn't show him as earning an Afghanistan Campaign Medal or any other decoration that'd point to him as being a war/combat veteran.

The One-Man Demand Studios Sucks Self-Debate Team

This person is putting up a show. Using different usernames, this person is engaging in a series of arguments... with himself. This person adds new meaning to the statement, "Talking to oneself."

Why the trouble? One reason for the "one poster" show is to keep traffic flowing to Demand Studios Sucks.

Whoever this person is, they have a vested interest in keeping a steady flow of internet traffic to that website. Demand Studios Sucks gives this person some kind of legitimacy, something that he/she doesn't get in the real world. If DSS ends, so does his/her world... once that happens, it's back to the real world and irrelevance.

But, who could this person be? It could be one of the administrators, or one of the regular posters.

Through that entire charade, this person doesn't realize something. A writing pattern has started to creep up. I won't point it out here. That's up to the one man/woman debate team to figure out. The more this person maintains these one person self debate games, the more this person will reveal.

I have an idea of who's the most probable suspect.

Demand Studios Sucks' Berg Defends Political Science, Trashes Business and Advertising Degrees...

[quote]Originally posted by berg
Fucking loser, the degree will help you. 

[quote]Originally posted by CE_ClueBat
Well, he's a political science major, so he has a pussy major too.[/quote]

There is nothing pussy about a political science degree. I think it is a waste of time personally, but that crap borders on philosophy. Advertising is a pussy major. So is business, I mean, come on, you don't need a degree in business to go into business.
I'm gonna stay off, otherwise people might lose some limbs tonight.[/quote]

Political Science, or "Poly Sci." That was the degree plan that I had settled on completing, back in 1989. Don't know if they still call political science by that nickname or not today. I look back at that time period and wonder... what the hell was I thinking?

Pussy major would be a complement. It's a useless degree if one's looking to improve their chances of learning a useful skill to use in the real world. I didn't learn anything new in the Political Science classes that I took. The books chosen for the course reflected the professors' political and ideological biases.

Like clockwork, the end of the class came around and we didn't learn anything new. We walked out of the class not knowing more than before the class. This was the case with the vast majority of the courses I took at a traditional university, as a traditional student.

Advertising? Perhaps "berg" could get in touch with a marketer or a publisher with a mailing list that spans the English speaking world. If she does well doing their "inserts," or other small writing project, she'll get a shot at earning over $1,500.00 writing a mailing package. If she writes something that beats their control letter, she's looking at earning more than that for a follow on assignment.

The same thing is applicable for many publishers and marketers that have a large email database.

She'd also get the value and respect she feels she deserves. Marketers would treat her like a human being that contributes something valuable to the organization.

But, a writer can't just write Demand Studios style. A writer has to, ready for this? A writer has to psychoanalyze the target market based on the data the company has on them. If a writer could do this to the point that she knows what makes them tick, she's got a shot at beating one of her client's controls.

You have to know something about advertising; as in direct mail/direct response advertising. We're not talking about the average, run of the mill direct advertising that you get from ad agencies. Many of the things that Demand Studios considers "Writing Gospel," are actually "no goes" in this market.

The general public doesn't talk to each other sounding like pompous journalists or professors. These are the prospects and clients you'd be writing to.

Anybody could start, and run, a business. If you remain a self proprietor, working from your home, and keep things simple, you don't need a business degree. The information that you do need is readily available. One example is the local chamber of commerce. They sponsors classes, organize socials, speaking events, etc. Many even have links to organizations that help people get started the right way.

However, when you start to grow your business, and get to the point to where you start hiring employees, and operating outside your home, you're dealing with a whole new ball of wax. Many major catalog companies started as "home based" operations.

Business degrees give you the basics for working management in a corporation. I've received occasional feeds from a veterans "head hunter" organization. Some of the positions listed offered six digit salaries, or close to them... if only you had an MBA (or related business degree) and job opening specific experience.

Maybe berg could talk to these people, and "convince" them to take a Demand Media Studios writer instead. Said writer already "has" a business. Just ask his/her client, Demand Studios... you'll see!

Pussy degree? Considering that people with business and advertising degrees play a heavy role in encouraging consumer demand, I beg to differ.

A Retard Demand Studios Sucks Poster Fails in Psychoanalyzing, Just Like He or She has Failed in Life

Many of the retards that I debate with accuse me of "self aggrandizing," or of bragging.

The reality?

I don't go around telling people everything that I've accomplished in life. I rarely talk about my accomplishments unless some of them relate to an ongoing discussion. When it comes to debate, there's another purpose.

Many of the retards that I debate with tend to talk crap about me. They accuse me of having one or more of their own traits. My rebuttal, using my first hand experience, is me rebutting their unqualified statements about me. That's not "self aggrandizing," that's debate self defense.

These people haven't accomplished much in their lifetimes. Not surprising, since many of these dingbats have Demand Media Studios as their sole, or main, client. DMS is a fool's-paradise arrangement. A "writer" could simply get accepted, then write as many assignments as they could write.

They're spared from having to do the things a real freelance writer has to do... like marketing their services, networking, and expanding their client base. With Demand Media drying up as an income source, many of these dummies are left massaging bruised egos. They're like "business as usual" people on a ship that's sinking.

For many DSS posters, DMS is an easy option, down to riding the ship to the bottom.

It's also about "misery loving company." Heaven forbid that someone comes along who isn't a failure like many of them. Their egos can't handle that, so they go about trying to cut others down rather than trying to pick themselves up and move on. If this person happens to be someone that disagrees with them, the "insult" to them is even worse.

The following post is an example of what people do when they can't debate to save their lives. What do these people do when they're denied the only semblance of "control" in their lives? They say the worst things possible about the person that's destroying them.

The people that do this in real life share some common traits. They're usually losers who aren't proud of what they've accomplished so far. They'd rather try to cut the subject of their jealousy down. It's easier on their ego if they think that everybody is a failure like them. This misconception helps them shift the blame, for their demise, away from themselves and toward something else.

Watch me analyze one such retard in the following post. This person was getting it wrong about someone else. But, since his charge is similar to what has been thrown at me before, I'll address it as if he were addressing me.

There's Nothing "Psychic" about This Demand Studios Sucks Impostor

One loser after another had thrown one of the below assumptions about me around on other message boards. Whether this assclown was addressing me or not, I'm going to provide a rebuttal.

I can see you through my psychic powers...
College flunk-out, weighing 290 lbs and living in his Mom's basement. Your only reading material are Hustler and Soldier of Fortune magazines and a pile of Glenn Beck books. And you are compulsively masturbating to internet porn even as I type...[/quote]

You get an "F" for both effort and substantive inaccuracies.

Again, I have an MBA, and graduated with honors. Subtract 110 pounds from that estimate, and you'll be in the ballpark.

My mom died in 1981. I've seen a basement once this century, while visiting a friend of mine in Lawrence, Kansas. Other than that, I haven't seen a basement since I lived in Minneapolis, back in 1990/1991. I stayed in the top floor bedroom at that house. So I don't see how I could be living in any basement. I've been out of my parent's house since 1989.

The last time I read Hustler was back in the 1980s. I've never read a Soldier of Fortune magazine, and I've never read any of Glenn Beck's books. The positions I have are based on conclusions I've made based on extensive research and first hand experience.

I'm a sperm donor. I wasn't helping a couple conceive at the time you farted the above message out. When I do help a couple out, it's not done in front of internet porn.

If you were talking about me, your only recourse is to thank me for correcting your erroneous assumptions. If you do otherwise, you'll just prove that you have absolutely no integrity.

If you were talking about someone else, I highly doubt that you got it right about the other person.

Ways to Verify Someone's Claim of Being a Veteran

If you're not a veteran, there are a couple of immediate techniques you could use to check someone's veteran claims.

One is through a Freedom of Information Act request to the Military Personal Records Center at St. Louis, Missouri. Depending on the military branch, you could also go to the specific branch for this information. If you're not the veteran, or that veteran's family member, you'll need a Standard Form 180.

The retard that I'm about to address should've known better. This information is also on eHow, one of his/her client's websites. The Personal Records Center's website will give you the latest, and more accurate, data for where to send the SF 180.

I recently copied mailing information from their website. I submitted a Freedom of Information Act request on an Airman that claims the National Defense Service Medal... for service that doesn't fall within a qualifying time period. This person is also claiming the Meritorious Service Medal, an award that's usually given to senior officers and senior enlisted. This "Airman" only did 4 years.

The St. Louis center is swamped with SF 180 requests. As of this posting, they're working through a backlog.

You'll need to give them as much information as possible. This information includes the person's name, social security number, dates they served, what branch they were in, etc. The more information you give them, the better chances you'll have of getting something.

If you don't give them enough information, they may not be able to find the person's record. The resulting, "no records found" would end up being meaningless. One veteran got that result. When he submitted additional information, "presto," they found a record.

If the SF 180 route is too much work, you could always talk to a veteran. Ask this veteran to talk to the person claiming to be a veteran. The person, that you know is a veteran, would quickly be able to verify the other person... as a veteran or as a phony.

For the best results, have an Army veteran talk with someone claiming to be an Army veteran; have a Navy veteran to talk with someone claiming to be a Navy veteran, and so on.

This is something that veterans do all the time when they run into each other. It starts with the "Cool, another veteran!" moment. The questions start flying about the other's service, what their MOS was, what they did, where they were stationed, etc.

Veterans are quick to "click" and talk to each other as if they've known each other forever. That's if they're both veterans. If you chose someone that you think is a veteran, but who isn't, that phony won't be able to give you the correct response. If your "veteran" reads my posts, then claims that I'm a "phony," then your "veteran" would obviously be a phony.

If one person makes untrue claims, that fact would become obvious to the real veteran.

Here's another thing that I'm willing to do.

If your veteran is in the Army, have him/her send me an email via Army Knowledge Online (AKO). Use the name that I gave Demand Media Studios. Use this formula for my AKO email address: "my first name" dot "my middle initial" dot "my last name" at "us" dot "army" dot "mil". Your veteran would quickly be able to verify that I am who I say I am.

These are actions that a smart person would take. What would a brain-dead person do? Just read the posts from Demand Studios Sucks commenter, "LOL."

The Demand Studios Sucks Commenter That Fails at Propaganda...

It's obvious that the retard that I'm about to address isn't a veteran. A real veteran would know, right off the bat, that I am who I say I am. It'd be obvious by the way I say things, and what I've said. This colossal failure, whose biggest accomplishment in his/her life is arguing as different people on Demand Studios Sucks, isn't capable of critical thought.

Instead of having the integrity to do the right thing, this dummy continues to try to cast doubt on my factual statements:

"utterly worthless, just like the opinions expressed on it."

Oh, my. Too funny. And you are too fucking stupid to realize it.
If you really are who you claim to be, let me ask: Do they still let you play with guns on the naval base in Virginia Beach?

ProTip, skippy: The barrel end goes in your mouth.[/quote]

You're a retard for several reasons; I'll list some of them here.

First, we don't just call them "guns." We call them pistols, rifles, carbines, machine guns... depending on which weapon you're talking about. The "end" doesn't go in the mouth dumbass... unless you're another bottom feeding retard that likes the idea of trying to talk a veteran into committing suicide.

Second, if you bothered to pull your head out of your hind end, you'd notice that you'd be able to see more on the southeast Virginia map than "the naval base." Since your lazy ass can't do a simple thing like research, let me point this out to you.

The Navy isn't the only military branch with a presence in this area. I'm not just talking recruiting either.

In Virginia Beach, there's FCTC Damneck, NAS Oceana, Fort Story, Camp Pendleton, DEVGRU, NAB Little Creek. In Norfolk, there's NOB Norfolk. Across the Bay, there's Langley Air Force Base. Little Creek and Fort Story are administered as Joint Expeditionary Base Little Creek-Fort Story. FCTC Damneck is administered as an annex of NAS Oceana.

Let me break this down for your retarded ass. If a post's name is preceded by the word "Fort," there's a good chance that it's an Army base. If it has "Air Force Base" after it, there's a good chance that it's an Air Force Base.

Third, anybody with half a brain would know that a Soldier, on an Army Base, would get the opportunity to do small arms fire on the range. In our case, we go up to Fort Eustis, which is also in this general area.

The last time I shot at the range, it was on one of the ranges at Fort Riley, KS, when I was stationed with a unit there.

Fourth, you arrogantly try to doubt my statements of who I am. I know who I am, and what I do. You don't. Anybody with any common sense would know which one of us is correct about my background.

But, if you don't want to accept the facts (my word) because it flies in the face of your arrogance; and in the face of the fact that you know that you're a failure in life; you could try the intelligent approach. Refer to my post above that talk about verifying veterans.

Here's a professional tip for you retard.

Get away from your parents' computer. Walk to your nearest parent. Tell him/her that you're an upbringing failure. Then ask to have that rectified with a good wall to wall counseling session.

The next time your classroom games result in a trip to the principal's office, repeat the process. Let your principal know that you're an education failure, and ask to be held back until you get a clue.

Anybody that insinuates that a veteran should kill himself should be taken to the woodshed. That person disrespects ALL those who've ever served... past and present. These bottom feeders dishonor the military when they spew crap like that. I don't care if that turd was joking with that comment or not.
