About Linton Robinson and Libel
If anyone is curious what exactly is entailed in libel, I would like to share you with you what exactly libel is. This is a direct quote from Linton
Robinson, which can be found on another writer's forum:
----------------
| Quote: | From:
http://www.writingforums.com/lounge/106739-another-email-spamming-w...
Accentuateservices.com, a newbie forum full of people who convince themselves they're writers because they do internet content for $5 a post. It's run
by the INCREDIBLY argumentative and bitchy (yes, way more bitchy and argumentative than myself...scary, huh?) Michelle Devon (aka "Michy", your
typical fat menopausal, self-impressed writer forum cow) who runs the writer's site as a hooker for her business charging for editorial stuff.
She just won't stop.
She says, "The law says I can respond to any mail you send me". Have no idea what "law" there is, but notice her claim that somebody asking not to get
unwanted mail is an excuse to send them more mail.
Again, be really careful with these sites, one wrong move and you've just signed up for a mail bashing party. |
-------------------
First, I must let all of you, everyone, know that I do not sell, trade or use your email for ANYTHING except for the monthly newsletter from
Accentuate, and you only get that if you sign up and check the NEWSLETTER button right here on the forum. Why did Linton get the newsletter mailed to
him twice? Because he signed up to this board, TWICE, under two different names, and spammed the board. He was BANNED twice, and then was put on an IP
ban.
Why? For general bad behavior, spamming the board with links to his books and his video trailers without providing quality interaction on the site or
even introducing himself, and for being argumentative and degrading to others, including saying that people who wrote romance were, "shitty
writers".
After he was banned, he received one email from this board, to which he responded very rudely and using bad language.
I responded to his email stating why he had received the email, telling him the email had been removed from the list, and he would not receive another
email from us again.
A little while later, he received the same email again he had complained about before. He emailed me and very rudely, using vulgar language, told me
that he had requested me not to spam him.
I knew I had not sent him any mail, went to see why, searched the board for his email, and that's when I discovered he had a second account on this
board with the same email. I banned that second account and removed the email from the board. I sent him an email telling him the reason he had
received it again was HIS FAULT, because of HIS ACTIONS, signing up for a second account and clicking the newsletter button on it too. I informed him
that he had been removed from the second account.
In response to that, he sent me the following email, quoted:
------------
| Quote: |
STOP FUCKING SENDING ME EMAIL.
I REALLY DON'T WANT TO SEE ANY MORE FUCKING EMAIL FROM YOUR SKANKY ASS.
Now if you don't understand that, and keep mailing me over my objections, I'll take the next step.
Why don't you learn a new skill. Put a sock in it.
Stop sending me your fucking email
|
------------
I had, at this point, sent him a total of four emails - the two he received from the board stating we were moving to a new domain, both of which
because he signed up for two accounts on the board and checked the email box - and the two emails telling him I had removed him from the list.
That's it.
Yes, I responded to the email above with the language, and here's how that went down:
-------------------
| Quote: |
Well then you must be even stupider than I thought because all you have to is read back through the thead to find your UNSOLICITED mail to me,
followed by my request that you not send me mail, followed by your barking and leg-humping.
You're going to find out about all that, though.
If I were you I'd quite mailing me.
But you've already screwed up.
Enjoy
Lin

I'm sure there are other places Linton Robinson has done this and if you follow the link above to the other writers forum, you will see he's done it
to other people too.
I'm reminded of the old saying, "The only common link in all your dysfunctional relationships is YOU."
It's funny that Mr. Linton Robinson says I'm argumentative. It's also funny he calls this a newbie board. Anyone who knows me knows both those things
aren't true.
My business has been around for over 14 years now, registered with the IRS and with an EIN. The board's been around in some form for nearly four years
now. The new format is now over a year old.
I will not remove this post. I would like if the other writers forum will remove the libelous comment Linton Robinson made, but have no way of
contacting them besides registering for their forum, and I have no desire to do that. Linton Robinson lives in Mexico, so he thinks he's
untouchable.
He's not.
If he continues down this path, he's bound to lose the royalties he brags about to someone suing him for libel.
What he is doing is actually illegal.
Now, it's all out in the open.

It is so obvious the man has mental problems, no kidding. You, nor anyone else, can reason with someone like that. Just forget him. He delights in
stirring up problems. It is the only way he can feel important.

I requested the other forum to remove the libelous comments made by Linton Robinson.
I will update as soon as I hear back from them.
I was contacted by someone on another site who said Linton Robinson had done the same thing on their forum. I don't know what happened there, so I
can't speak for that, but what I'm guessing I see here is a pattern of bad behavior on Linton Robinson's part.
There is no reason for him to say those things about me in public. He posted to another site too, and that post was removed and a moderator chastised
him for it, but it did get Indexed in Google five hours ago. I saw the cache. Hopefully that will be gone eventually too.
(sigh) I'm too tired to mess with it anymore tonight.
Love and stuff,
Michy

Michy - I'm so sorry this boob has done this to you. You are the most UNdeserving person of this crap. I hope you do seek legal action - then this
idiot will learn not to screw with people. Especially when he doesn't know WHO he is jacking around with. Please don't let him get you down. People
like that have such sad little lives, they have to try to tear others down to make them feel better about themselves.
Edit: I did a quick Google search. This dude likes to ask for critiques, and when folks oblige, he gets irate and calls them M.F.s and the n-----
word. I say, Michy, if this guy acts like this, we don't want him here anyway.

Good grief, what a sad individual. It seems his idea of writing is being able to slander people whilst using the greatest amount of bad language
possible. Poor deluded soul is clearly seeking attention when he should perhaps be seeking medical attention (and will be if he doesn't leave our
Michy alone!).
Michy don't let him get you down. We know how wonderful you are and how above board you are in all your dealings with us. (Even I have already seen
this in the relatively short time I have been here) We love and support you and this person (although I am loathe to use that term) is undeserving of
your precious time and attention. Karma finds a way and it will find him

The guy strikes me as the type who feels the need to belittle and insult others to try to make himself appear better. His time would be better spent
actually trying to work out his obvious personal issues!
Michy, no one here believes any of the B.S. he's spreading. We KNOW you and what you do. That's why we're all here and lovin' it. We don't need trash
like that polluting our happy forum family. I hope you're able to get this nonsense with him straightened out quickly.

Ummm, guys, it's well and good to jump to Michy's defense as well we should, but if you take a look at his posting on the other site, he has libelled
each and every one of you, though not as heinously as he did Michy.

Again, be really careful with these sites, one wrong move and you've just signed up for a mail bashing party.
The addendum to Michy's lesson on libel is that one of the required elements of libel is identification. By identifying members of this forum in a
negative manner, he libelled each of you individually as well.
Think it doesn't matter compared to what he said about Michy? Well, yes and no. Obviously, Michy has a much stronger case as he attacked the anme
under which she does business and directly imperiled (in theory) her livelihood. However, each and every one of us here relies on our professionalism
to get additional work. Some of us are about to be very visibly associated with this forum in our book (*happy dance**). His accusation that we only
consider ourselves writers because we sell $5 online content 1) devalues what we do and b) implies a lack of professional which impacts our bottom
line.
I guess I'm posting this because too many people view internet postings as something they can do and then forget and too many good people like us turn
the other cheek or shake our heads, but do nothing.
Suiong someone for libel is a difficult and expensive process, but I guess what I'm saying here is that if Michy decides to sue, we need to stand with
her as literally and figuatively as any of us can afford. People who post things like this MUST be stopped.

Michy,
Small-minded people feel the need to belittle others to pump up their own sense of self-importance. If there are legal remedies you can seek, and if
you conclude it's worth your time and aggravation to pursue them, more power to you. If not, just take a deep breath, recall that these issues are not
preventing your business and this board from growing, and don't be concerned about every mutt who decides to bark.

Hmmm. I was under the impression that "writer" is defined as "someone who writes." Now, I'd say that you, Jenn, as well as Michy and others here,
would qualify as "professional writer," which adds the qualification you put in of someone who is paid to write, and has made that their livelihood.
Not that I care too much, but can Mr. Robinson lay claim to being a professional writer? Can he lay claim to being a professional editor, able to
evaluate the quality of writing of people on this board (or anywhere else, for that matter)? From what I've seen quoted above from him, it appears
he'd have a hard time making the case of being professional at all, at least in his communications.

this is just too much! how dare this a..hole insult us like this. What exactly does he do that makes him so freakin' qualified to call himself a
writer? I for one, have a very high paying full time writing job and I know there are many many writers who are much better here. I could get all
"Julia Sugarbaker" about this but frankly, this low life doesn't deserve my energy. We stand behind you Michy, we are here because we care about each
other and only want to support each other and you can email me any damn time you want!

We knew what he was about the first time he came around.
This doesn't surprise me.
I think anyone who reads his post will know how untrue it is- it reflects more on him than on us or our beloved Michy.
talk about sour grapes- he was kicked out twice and he lashes out about how much we suck- if we suck so much why did he join, twice?
I hate his comments, but refuse to give him an more energy. For his nasty comments though I would love to kick him where the sun don't shine- but then
his head is already so far up there it wouldn't matter.

I would like to thank the following two sites:
http://www.writingforums.com/
AND
http://www.writersbeat.com/
For their professionalism in handling this libelous situation. Writer's Beat removed the post Mr. Robinson made about me there before I even saw it,
telling him they did not appreciate posts such as that on their board.
WritingForums.com removed the post after I requested they do so.
If you're looking for another forum, an additional forum, or just for more information, either of these sites might work for you.
Thank you to both sites, again, for their professionalism. It is much appreciated.
Love and stuff,
Michy

I am employed by the US Military as a writer, and I am self-employed as a writer. I don't have to spam message boards with profanity to make myself
feel like a writer. It must be a sad little life that Mr. Robinson leads. You almost (almost) have to feel sorry for someone like that. Almost.

I remember him now. I clicked on the files at the bottom of your first post on this thread and saw his picture and I remember when he introduced
himself. I welcomed this idiot like we welcome everyone and I was nice like I am nice to everyone on here. He has a lot of nerve talking about us like
this when he doesn't even know us. Jerk! Glad he will not be here. We don't need negativity on this board. That's what makes this board so great, the
great people who care so much about each other. All he wold do is bring us all down like he tried to when he wrote that post on the other board.
So sorry you have to deal with this Michy but if he sends you anymore email I would just ignore him. He seems like the type where he gets a kick out
of bothering other people. Glad the jackass is gone for good!

Oh, I just love special snowflake drama queens. They crop up everywhere and spit and stamp their little e-feet and type out words they think will
shock and offend everyone, and then think it's their right to get upset when they're told off and kicked out. They leave this smear of distaste behind
them wherever they go.
I'll be honest - I'm surprised he's the only one that I've seen cross this community. I think you handled him well, Michy, and I wouldn't take
anything he says personally. This is all about him and his dirty little spotlight.
One of the reasons I was attracted to (and stayed in) this community is the friendly, supportive, and ultimately sane characteristics of its members.
I've been in communities that weren't like that, including ones run by the infamous internet stereotype of the psycho hosebeast (if you're not aware,
females who run online communities and are not crazy psycho loons are in the minority). Michy, you are one of the minority, and one of the
sanest I've come across. You're certainly nothing like he descibed you. Thank you for that.
With regard to the professional threat, I would be surprised if any professional outfit drew judgement from that kind of source. His comments are
clearly intended to be defamatory, and a simple Google search can produce evidence of his habit of doing this.
The best thing you can do with an annoying little snowflake like Linton is ignore him. He'll soon find a target that'll argue with him and keep him
occupied for months.

Hello everyone. My name is Father Luke, and
I am co-owner of LiteraryMary.
Well, it looks as if we could start
our very own recovery group.
Us, and every other forum where
Lipton has worn out his welcome.
Nice place you have here, Michy.
I'll make it a point to come back and play.
And you are all certainly welcome at LiteraryMary.
I might also mention Every Writer's Resources.
EWR is a new forum for writers getting off to a nice
start. Richard, one of the owners, is serious about helping
writers discover helpful links to both encourage their growth
as writers, and to enhance the writing experience of those
who are already established. I think that you will find a visit
there is more than worth your while.
Here: http://www.everywritersresource.com/writersmessageboards/index.php
I suppose every jack-ass love to hear himself bray.
I'll shut up.

Hi Father Luke and welcome. I saw your post over at the other site and thought you and Michy both did exceedingly well to make your points without
descending to his level. Anyone with an ounce of common sense will see the situation for what it is.

It is very incongruous to read Mr. Robinson's posts, in which he launches ad-hominem attacks using extremely vulgar and unprofessional language, while
alleging those he attacks are unprofessional. It seems to provide the context necessary to assess the validity of his posts (namely, little to none).

I very much want to comment on this, but quite honestly, my blood is boiling and I cannot think of anything worth saying to this "man" (though "boy"
seems to be a more accurate description).
Don't listen to him, Michy. He is awful.

FWIW - I think that Lipton has made his bed again.
I think he will have a hard time doing anything but lieing in it.
Oh dear. Did I just make a very bad pun?
oh my.

Bad, Father Luke, real bad. But thankfully, we don't object to punny! Just rude, obnoxious, I'm-better-than-you types who think that their writing
is better tha ours because *gasp* we actually do things that make money.

Michy and Father Luke, I'm so sorry that you've had to deal with this horrible excuse for a human being. I hope that that thread is removed from the
last forum. Also, if it gets to the point that legal action is necessary, please do let us know. I and I'm sure many others here would be more than
happy to support you in any way we can. I the meantime, just go bask in the gloriousness that is the rest of this forum

Well, having been away for a bit, this is my first reading about this scandal and I can't say anything that the others on this thread haven't already
said, but good for you for not taking any crap.
I'm still a newbie, but I'm a writer because I write. I believe that I will eventually make a living at it, and if I'm right about that, it will in no
small part because of your inspiration and support, as well as all the good folks on this very caring and supportive forum.
Thanks again Michy, for somehow saying the right thing to me, at the right time, so many times.

This may be of interest in this thread:
http://www.writingforums.com/members/lin-21226.html
Lipton is banned for the shenanigans he pulled at writing
forums. It only cost me being banned in return. meh. I think
it's cute that I was banned from a writing site after one post
asking them to explain why they were endorsing Lipton's lies.
I've written twice to the admins at http://www.editred.com ,
and I've included both Jenifer, who is Founder and co-owner of
http://literarymary.com/forum/
and Michy, when I asked that the thread be appropriately
administered.
Lipton continues to have his say here:
http://www.editred.com/index.php/My_Ink/Bulletin/Show/9195
And after reporting the thread to admins there, I have received no reply.
By the way? When I search for Lipton Robinson on google,
this thread shows up:
About Linton Robinson and Libel.
Oh my.

Found on the web:
Here's some further useful info about Linton Hoy Robinson:
Born 9/2/48
5'11", 160 lbs. (weight noted as 200 when arrested in 1999)
Brown hair, Hazel eyes
Several residences in California & Washington
Arrested 1980 - San Diego battery
Arrested 1981 - Simple Battery
Arrested 1988 - Assault with force/deadly weapon (not a firearm), appeared to have been a club & tear gas. Felony conviction, 5 years probation, 270
days jail restitution.
Arrested in San Diego for assault, served 90 days in a mental diagnostic facility - case dropped but 3 strike countable.
Arrested 1999 - Assault with a deadly weapon, NOT A FIREARM, 200 assault dropped, pleads to a batter felony conviction, 270 days jail term & a $300
fine.
This guy is three strike eligible in California & cannot possess a firearm.
My experience with this guy is that he has an extremely bad temper with a complete lack of anger management.. I think he uses the appearance of poor
Mental Health as an intimidation tactic and to avoid culpability. He seems to avoid confrontation with a stronger adversary and seeks out victims he
feels he can physically intimidate. He uses a lot of verbal intimidation, makes threats and stalks people.
He is currently on the run from the Mazatlan authorities who have two outstanding warrants for his arrest.
Left Cabo San Carlos after supergluing employer's car keys in her car because you were doing the same thing that you later started doing in
Mazatlan.
Left Isla Mujeres for unkown reasons.
Arrived in Mazatlan & began harrassing people on the MazInfo List and after being banned from that forum opened the nefarious "Radio Free Mazatlan"
Forum with it's attached "Take It Outside" adjunct where you continued to harrass several people who displeased you. Assualted a Mexican citizen who
didn't like the way you were attacking his wife on the Internet and after being arrested for that assault, pleaded with him to drop the charges &
promised not to make any further attacks. When he did drop the charges - you started again your campaign of harrassment. When other members of your
website "team" tried to get you to let up on her & other locals that you disagreed with your reply was to tell them, "My way or the highway".

I'm really sorry both Michy and Father Luke have to deal with this person.

Wow Father Luke! That's some interesting information.
Unfortunately, the internet is swimming with people like Linton.
I have only been here a short time and have found this site to be nothing but help. I have even found another way to supplement my husband's income.
Before this, all I had was ChaCha.
I want to thank Michy for creating such a great resource.
