The matter of Suzzette Van Lare Options

[micron]

So, I am mulling over whether or not to legally go after Suzzette and / or her parents for her actions three days ago. Before I do, I'd like to know as much background information on this matter, from the events leading up to her dumping out everything on the forums, to her motives behind her actions. If you have any information, please post here. If you have chat logs with her leading up to this event, posts them here as well.

This is not a bashing thread, so please refrain from bashing her. I am doing this so that I can present my case to a lawyer with as much information as possible.

PS. If you know Suzzette's contact information and mailing address, please PM me. If you attend or have a friend who attends Lassiter High School, please try to find out her address for me. Thank you for your time and efforts. =)

PPS. I will consider hearing out Suzzette's side of the story. If you are her friend, tell her to contact me either by pm or phone (pm me for it).

I believe Holly talked to her as it was happening I don't know if you already talked to her or not.

[Insurmountable]

^Well yea I called him when she was still deleting her posts

I mean if I need to explain more about it and stuff I can. I think it was that google pages that I was telling Jusun about (if he remembers) that set her to the edge. She wanted to go out in style.

I have logs all from that day though if you would like em' Although I do not have any from talking to her that she was saying she was going to do something like this. No one talked to her after the Suzy Q's went out.

[hi-C]

Just wondering, what would you sue her for (like, the legal heading, i.e. destruction of property, etc) and what type of losses would you seek?

[missnh]

I have information, and I'll tell you my side of the story as well. I'll IM you later, or you can contact me: missnonhuman

[rnicron]

I say Steven, Michelle, Kara, Holly, Josh, and myself start a chat with Jusun.

[missnh]

Well, if we start a chatroom, we should include less biased members such as Holly or Toya, although I will try to be as objective as possible.

[freeflow]

I'm down if you guys want me too/need me too.

[micron]

we can start a chatroom tonight, when theres more members online.

[Insurmountable]

Sounds fine to me, me and toya and steven I think were the only ones that talked to her that morning anyway, right?

[rnicron]

I think so, but all of us seemed to be the "leading up to" factor.

Someone pick a time and a name and PM everyone. Make it later on, though.

[Insurmountable]

Alright, well I don't know how to make a chat room but I will add everyone tonight when they make it if needed

[arcanum]

Yeah, well. I'm up for a chat whenever. Though, including Toya sounds about right and maybe Mona, if she is on?

im not sure, i will have to talk to a lawyer about that. but if i decide to go after her, i do intend to pursue her with the fullest extent permitted by law.

Milk her for all she's worth! Make her pay your attorney fees, also.

[misoshiru]

i'm not sure, but aren't 'internet crimes' usually harder to pursue?

[*Steven*]

It depends. Jusun, did you write a TOS or a user agreement saying that she can't do that? It could be very hard to do anything to her if you didn't make her agree or at least read it and hit "I've read" or w/e. I don't know though. I assume you would pursue her with the case of destruction of intellectual property.


Anyways. I believe I, amongst others, were catalysts in the "explosion", if you will. We did not like at all the way staff was handling things, especially Suzzette. I won't bring in our feelings towards her in this, but basically we all left staff and "exposed" her including aim logs and the whole nine yards. She started spending less and less time on createBlog which she attributed to a job and real life activities. No one slowed down in the bashing of her (at least the primary aggressors). One morning, I logged on, and about 30 minutes later I was banned and the previous page had Suzzette on the front of the most recently active and then before you know it everything was gone.

Yeah, I thought so, too :/

[ersatz]

Oh man...I had a bunch of PMs of her saying like, "They better calm down" or like, "I could do so much" and stuff like that...like whole conversations, but all my PMs are gone now.

[missnh]

So, is this chat going down?

[clarity]

Well since this effected many of us, can't the public get to know what went down as well?

T-T

I mean I heard Suzette went all koo-koo, But I'd still like an explanation/reason or what you infer may have caused this situation and what may have led her to take these actions.

[arcanum]

^ Well, the chat would be easier if it were less people, because... it just is. Less chatting, etc.
You can just ask someone what happened. A lot of people already know.

So, is this chat going down?

That is what I was wondering.

[missnh]

Sure, I don't mind. I just wanted to know if Jusun really wanted to chat about it or not o_0

I agree with Kara. Having a chat to discuss the details (rather than informing everyone the summary) is better. If you really want / need an explanation, then leaving it on the site is fine.

[clarity]

Okay - So maybe we could save people who do not know of the situation
the trouble of asking someone else by just clearly typing a well manured summary of what happened. I'd really like to be informed, and I'm sure others would as well. If you get what I mean.

[*Steven*]

I really think there should be a sticky at the top of every forum saying what happened. I don't know how many times I've typed a summary of what's happened, but it's been a lot.

Actually, I responded in this thread. Go read.
