campylobacterTranscript of the video from RDAnderson.com:
Hi! Richard Dean Anderson here.
It's way too early in the morning to be doing this, and in fact I kinda resent having to do it at all, but there are some people -- couple of couples -- that are representing themselves on Facebook as me.
Uhm, they've got a-- there are are a couple of sites up -- actually there are many, many sites up apparently that are, uh invoking my name as being the "responder".
Um, it's not happening. I'm, I don't have a Facebook account, let alone am I holding court on a site.
So please I'd like people like Nancy Battaglia, Christine Dallinger, Christopher John Taylor and Kate Taylor to please stop what you're doing.
It's illegal and it's uh, bad form. All right? Have a good rest of the day.

Date: 2011-09-10 06:08 pm (UTC)I'm not sure what the point of posing as a celebrity would be unless one likes lawyers? Douchebaggery is a hobby for some folks.

Date: 2011-09-10 07:51 pm (UTC)Nancy Battaglia is the
smug entitled bitch on wheelsperson with whom I was forced to correspond when they (she) posted my LOLMacs without permission or attribution. She's now wailing that she was duped and that RDA is being mean to them. Duped my ass.(no subject)

Date: 2011-09-10 08:04 pm (UTC)I hope you don't mind: there are people on the rda.com forums who haven't been able to get the video to play, and there's no transcript posted there. I have posted there, linking to your transcript here. If you want me to kill the link, I will (in which case, may I repost your transcript?)

Date: 2011-09-10 08:09 pm (UTC)BOOST THE SIGNAL!
HIT THE SHARE BUTTON!
PS: I don't "own" RDA's words, so however we can get the news out, the better. Do whatever it takes to get this info to spread everywhere.

Date: 2011-09-10 08:56 pm (UTC)Thousands of RDA fans were posting adoring messages that they thought RDA would read, and the impostors were vicariously beating off to them. It's fucking twisted.

Date: 2011-09-10 11:19 pm (UTC)At least now, RDA has an official announcement regarding FB that should refute future fakes from now on.

Date: 2011-09-11 02:12 pm (UTC)But today I thought I'd go in and see if there was anything of interest to read, found your link to this transcript and was happy to click on it and see this photo and read what he had to say, as I'm another one unable to see the video. But just in the still photo, he's so cute!

Date: 2011-09-11 02:38 pm (UTC)I hadn't been to the rda.com forums in over a year, not since way before my Big Move. I ended up going back because of this, because a friend of mine there flagged me about my LOLs being reposted without credit. I've started hanging out there again, and posting LOLs there (from the vast collection of material already online at my journal). Also, one of the forum members started a specifically Non-Official RDA Facebook fan group, and I've also started posting LOLs there too.
And the image theft is continuing. I'm not sure how I'm going to deal with it; I have no appetite for poking around FB looking for it myself, but other on the forums have stronger stomachs than I do.
I don't know if the whole issue of image theft on Facebook is going to be a hopeless cause, honestly. I may just need to grow a thicker skin on this subject. I suppose I should be pleased that my work is regarded as worth stealing, but fer cryin' out loud, I give it away all the time. Image theft is unnecessary!!!.

Date: 2011-09-11 02:41 pm (UTC)Of course, this means I am in blatant violation of the Facebook TOS. Bwahaha.

Date: 2011-09-12 06:36 am (UTC)Sadly. some people will never learn. Maybe sending his lawyers after them will be the only thing that makes them stop accusing others for THEIR wrong doings. I don't know.
I just love RDA and hope this won't put a bad light on all the fans for him. :(

Date: 2011-09-12 06:47 am (UTC)RDA's well aware that four impostors don't represent the entire fandom.

Date: 2011-09-12 06:54 am (UTC)The more you spam venues outside of LJ with LOLMacs, the less others will bother to do without a linkback.

Date: 2011-09-12 07:06 am (UTC)Some people just like to seek attention at any cost. And when they get caught they try to turn the tables. It's sick. And disgusting, but it's happening a lot, actually.
