Well, Ladies (??? where ??? ) & Gentlemen..
You know that I love anniversaries.. around two years ago (June 2015), the infamous "Altered Dominant/Diminished Harmony" incident turned into a
"(nearly) all against The Feetosopher" stampede, which turned City Feet forum into a very lively arena, with Gladiator-like battles and pyrotecnic trolling..
Just a few links to the relevant threads..
It all started from this thread..
The "Feetosopher to stay or to go away" from the Forum poll
The "nudity vs. non-nudity" poll
The official agreement between Paul and me on Barefoot Nudity advertising

People who have been interacting with me on Facebook, WU's Foot Forum, DeviantART etc. know well that I am a basically peaceful & friendly dude.
I usually live and let live: I see a lot of stuff, guys & gals which I don't like at all, but I usually just pass beyond.
Yet the above incident here on the Forum made me understand that I also take a special pleasure in PLAYING THE VILLAIN.
I also realized that this Forum had enough Mr. Nices (my friends Hal and DG_2001 are really good at this, they have the right "Foot Ecumenism"!).
Yet, it lacked The Bad Guy. A bunch of chaps clearly agreed on The Feetosopher and his sites being a curse for the Forum, so I told myself:
"Hey, those lads clearly hate me, and this Forum needs a villain.. OK, let's give them the Enemy to fight against".
Well dudes.. I must confess that PLAYING THE VILLAIN HERE IS GREAT FUN for The Feetosopher!!!
I have all the right features: I am Italian (ya know, the Mafia cliche), I am not into Plain Jane barefoot hippies in baggy clothes, I love raunchy explicit nudity,
I know how to be hard-nosed and outspoken (if needed), I can play the self-assuming footographer, I am pretty good at ranting..
In a nutshell.. I AM THE PERFECT TARGET FOR YOUR HATRED, chaps!!!

Of course I have much better things to do in my life (even if for my haters this is really hard to believe).. but from time to time, I feel the need to
throw a stone in the pond, randomly attacking the first unlucky poster at hand (again, sorry hotbarefeet23! ) to.. MONITOR MY HATERS IN THE FORUM.
Well dudes.. maybe it's because The King of Haters is on holiday (but I am pretty sure that he is reading this ).. but it seems to me that
the Good Old Anti-Feetosopher Spirit of two years ago has been fading!!!
I tried my best, but only Batman came out with the genuine vengeance of yesteryears!!!

You know that I have my own theory on the Anti-Feetosopher Intifada.. a single chap with admin rights in the Forum "resuscitating" profiles
which had been dormant for years, or creating new profiles to throw shit at The Feetosopher Scumbag.. yet I will never get unquestionable evidence of this, sadly.
Whatever.. I really miss the old haters of mine!!! Duffman847 is still around, but seems not interested in crossing swords with me anymore.
But the others? AlteredDominant, NFH, Bemused, SprocketMan, Gothrocket, Timonenkarkku, zaR.. WHERE ARE YOU? I DO MISS YOUR HATRED!!!

OK.. being a psycho mobster of Italian foot mafia.. everybody knows that I LOVE barefoot girls gone bad! And also "meaty" ones, Batman!
So I leave it up to wonderful JENNIFER of BAREFOOT NUDITY, a tough outspoken barefoot beauty..
the task of GIVING THE FEETOSOPHER's SALUTE TO ALL HIS HATERS, PAST, PRESENT & FUTURE!!! PISS & LOVE, EVERYBODY!!!

P.S: please note that the picture is DULY CENSORED!!!

With all due respect I never intended to cross swords with you and I think you need to see a shrink re: the "haters".

You are the one who once called me out for reviving an old thread and daring to knock you off your perch. I recall giving a dignified response which you took (if I remember rightly as) me "pestering your balls".

Bit childish really. That's all.

Also not sure why the feetosopher is so paranoid about people bumping his threads. I have seen him complain about this many times but I think we all want variety and participation from everyone. Its not like a new thread is going to bump his off the face of the earth. Things tend to stay on the front page for a long time. I guess it is his way of wanting to put others down to promote his own stuff.
So it seemed to me that when you act like a jerk you might of actually thought you were right while others were being the haters (when the reality is you are the hater and we were right). But now you talk about being the villain. You saying you act like a jerk on purpose? Do you not want us to be a community to share ALL different kinds of barefoot women experience? What is it going be?
Nice theory you have about an admin doing this. You don't actually believe that do you? I can't possibly imagine the 3 admins I know to do this.

Today in America we celebrate freedom. You can also celebrate freedom here. If you do not like what Feetosopher posts, his opinions or endorsements please enjoy the simple freedom of passing his posts by.
If I have an issue with someone I prefer to address it one-on-one unless it affects many people. I personally have no issues with his posts but I do believe we are all entitled to our opinions be they positive or negative. That, too is our freedom.
Please do not interpret this post as an endorsement or criticism of anyone or anything. This is simply my opinion and I embrace everyone's right to agree or disagree with it. Let's use the bandwidth for positive and on-topic posts. Just my suggestion, not a demand.

feetosopher,why you call me? I try to help u agian. I like boobs and holes like u but pic u post is nasty. Scare away wives wich we want. Try put in nudity thread so honor agree with Paul and Also then wives and kids no stumble upon sexy time.

Great to see that you bothered to react to my post even during your holidays, Duffman847.. I am really honored for this! Thank you!
Yeah, I remember the incident.. as I wrote back then, it's clear that we have divergent opinions about netiquette in forums.
On WU's Foot Forum even "resuscitating" threads of the past week is seen as a no-no by admins, but I concede that the weekly number of fresh threads on WU's Foot Forum is enormously higher.
I saw your behaviour as a move clearly aimed at bumping down my threads.. which - being myself The Villain here - is something which NOBODY should dare to do..
Whatever.. many thanks again for joining the.. "family reunion" .. and enjoy your holidays!

Woah, great to see you back, SprocketMan.. I deffo missed your unique prose!
WIWES AND KIDS ON CITY FEET FORUM??? This is the most humorous thing I have read on CF Forum in years.. you rule!!!
Well.. many thanks again for joining the jamboree!!! All the best from Italy!!!

What really amazes me, Batman23, is the fact that with just 5 posts under your belt here on CF Forum, you talk like you were the Keeper of the Absolute Truth, and you are 200% sure that you have the right to talk on behalf of all the CF Forum members ("we this, we that"..).
Also the fact that you are heavily insulting me, and at the same time you reproach me because I dared to define DiminishedHarmony "cute but rather ordinary chubby girl with bare feet" (woah, what an offence), is indeed interesting.
You are deffo a peculiar dude, Batman23.. or should I call you AlteredDominant?

Yeah.. since June 2015, I act like a jerk on purpose.. and pretending to be obsessed about people bumping down my threads.. is obviously part of the package!
C'mon superhero.. don't tell me that you haven't got it yet..
Just have a look at my posts BEFORE that incident.. and AFTER that incident.. you will maybe appreciate my.. change of attitude.

As for the "community" issue.. sorry chap, but I have always believed that such concept is COMPLETE BULLSHIT.
The endless "barefooters vs. foot fetishists" clash is enough to prove it.
Add the fact that most people posting on forums, and even more so footographers/vendors (myself included), and even even more so DIY barefoot women/couples, have an enormous ego and clearly look for visibility.. proves it even more.

As for the integrity of admins.. I am pretty sure about Paul's, Hal's, and DG_2001's.. yet I remember that there is ONE MORE CHAP with admin rights here in the Forum.. or am I wrong?

You always speak Words of Great Wisdom, Barefoot Guy.
We have been friendly interacting on various social networks for 10 years or so, since the old MySpace days.
You know me well enough to be sure that my "playing the villain" attitude on CF forum is a (peculiar, I know) way for me to react to unjustified personal attacks and limitations to my freedom of expression in this forum.
I agree 100% with what you wrote.
If there were more dudes like you around, the world would be a much better place to live in.. and CF Forum would be a much better place to interact in.
Your post is the best possible curtain on this thread. For now, at least..
I wish you all the best.. ciao from Italy!

Great to see I'm important enough in your mind that you remember by vacation dates

Does it sting a bit that our Capo de Tutti Capo (Paul) has seen fit to pin my tournament thread at the top of the main board?...

p.s I think there is a plantation somewhere short of a few cucumbers....

I told you that my haters have a special place in my heart, Duffman847.. I care about your well-being..

As for Paul pinning your tournament on top.. well, no surprise at all.. this is the City Feet Forum, isn't it? It would be foolish from Paul not to draw the attention of the Forum members towards his own paysite!

Frankly speaking.. I have always admired Paul for the fact that he lets me and Hal advertise our paysites here in the Forum.. we are competitors of City Feet, after all.
Oh, maybe it's because Paul does not see BAREFOOT URBAN GIRLS and Toes-In-Action as a serious threat to City Feet unquestionable lead on the market..
Whatever the reason.. I admire Paul for this.. and even more so for the fact that he has not kicked me out of the Forum yet.. in spite of the SERIOUS PRESSURE in this respect coming from you and your fellas..

Cucumbers have always been in serious shortage in Italy since the launch of BAREFOOT NUDITY, Duffman847..

Your a joke Feetosopher! Nope, I am not AD. Others feel frustration about you also. It seems to me that pointing out examples of your nastiness falls on your deaf ears as you seem to be just sugarcoating it. It seems pointless. But it is how I feel and if I see people mistreated then I am going to speak out. Barefoot Guy has a wise approach. I and others do follow that method of expression of not saying anything. But there is nothing wrong with speaking up from time to time.Its not like I'm writing a whole book like you were in hotbarefeets post or here. I'm not always going be quiet and excuse bad behaviour. I'd rather be a good person than to fear that I'll lose the wank fodder you post. There is plenty of barefoot women out there on instagram as well as city feet/toes in action anyway. Sounds like you are very clear on not caring about community here.

Is good to see you too. I see you stir pot now with all here so my advise is turn down a silly a little. Too much silly bad. And dont pretend be Nudeyscalzie,barefoot runner, or stanlee. why laugh at me saying wives being here on forum? is True! bemused once say wife no like your sexy time nasty pics.
Dont be too silly and scare away all other wives becos I like sexy wives who come here. I like your sexy time pics tooo. I no mind that you enjoy cucumbers and carrots after anal insert. Just don't be to silly with those carrot consume or wives run away from here. Most of luck with your photographie.

I am also glad to see that you still want to teach me how to live on this planet, SprocketMan!!! I deffo missed your essential guidance!!!
Oh.. and you still believe that I have other puppet profiles here.. (BTW.. where are they now? why do they fail to step up in my defence?)
Please accept my most sincere apologies for scaring barefoot wives off the Forum.. my only remark is that if they get scared by my presence in the Forum.. they sure are not that corageous..
Have a good time chap.. take care..

I must say that you chose a perfect nickname, Batman23.. you really speak like you were the Almighty Saviour of the Barefoot Universe!
And you just keep on offending me.. well.. if you think that this makes you look cool.. go ahead chap.. no problem.. I am smart enough not to repay you with the same money..
It's pretty evident that you would be ultra-glad to see me kicked out of here.. well dude.. if you are that influent.. write to Paul, and get him to kick my ass out of here.
Because this will be THE ONLY WAY FOR YOU TO GET RID OF ME AND OF MY STUFF..
