It's the fact that you Google search 'Dean Bryden' and it shows up highly, I'm sure there will be copies in places, but they're not ranked highly in google. Thus removing this thread and the website would mean googling Dean Bryden would show up clean.

The algorithms used by search engines - most notably Google - determine what content shows when and where. Specific keyword strings like "Dean Bryden background" or "Dean Bryden employment history" or "Dean Bryden Australia" aren't going to disappear from Google and it's improbable that they will rank poorly.

The easiest way to prove this is to simply Google something from long ago, such as "Eric Conti poker"

The website 100% has to stay up IMO. His background, his scams and (hopefully) his repayments to those he scammed all have to be on the site.

If a man does jail-time, he has a record against his name. This is no different IMO.

Can't believe people would let him get off this easily by taking the one thing he is scared of down from the internet and let him have some sort of 'rep' again.

heh already addressed this and going to stop debating the site now

The overall lack of communication and the way this has been handled by him so far is quite pitiful and hopefully he starts changing that first.

Lol, I assumed there was a significant difference between an active and cached site.

Your example doesn't make much sense, because that twoplustwo thread wasn't deleted...

this is a moot discussion atm, as there's no immediate sign of Dean either repaying the charity or communicating sufficiently to resolve the other private disputes. But if he does get his **** together and make everyone whole, I'd be pretty appalled if the site stayed up. The argument that future employers deserve to know his history is quite disingenuous imo, it's clearly a case of punishing the scammer rather than protecting the innocent. And like I said, it's nobody's place to determine what sort of "sentence" is appropriate except the law's.

you don't know what peoples 'motivation' are for suggesting the site stays up. in the same sense we don't know your motivation for saying it should be taken down is because he is your mate.

I think it should stay up for both reasons, otherwise he basically 'free rolls' his scam.

so really the matter should be / have been reported to the police and they should have dealt with this?

I'm normally good at articulating my thoughts, but I guess I'm doing a pretty bad job of it in my last few posts as what I'm thinking makes sense in my head but I'm coming across pretty badly. So I'll stop!

Why would you be appalled if the site showing everyone he's a scammer stayed up?

What's wrong with the argument that it's for future employers to see he's a scammer? I don't see how that's disingenuous at all.

In my mind it's for both protection of innocent people, and to punish him, if it's not our place to punish him, then this has to be reported to the police, otherwise he's completely got away with it.

You read the post? It says if it's not going to be handled by the community, then yeah, of course it should be reported to the police...

This is theft of a large sum of money... From a charity. You're delusional if you think this isn't a police matter.

So, lots of people moan about getting a website up and running as soon as possible to out Dean as a scammer and a Thief, in the hopes of it grabbing his attention and actually getting him to come out of hiding.

This was achieved.

Now, there are multiple ******s ITT who have spent the last week arguing about how long/if/when the site should come down/stay up, wtf is wrong with you people?! The last few pages have been absolute tits to read and its pretty clear how socially ******ed some people are.

The site will not be coming down for a long f***** time so just chill out.

Nothings been achieved, Dean has dissapeared again. Socially ******ed? Wut? That doesn't even make sense in this context.

If you don't like my posts then don't read them, the fact you feel the need to tell me that you don't care is pretty pathetic.

Just because there are a bunch of people itt who agree the site should be permanent doesn't mean they agree with your reasoning, nor share your attitude.

Doesn't removing the site provide some (small) incentive for scammers to payback?

wonder how often this happens

Keep this thread on topic. On topic does not involve arguing whether it stays up or not. It's not going anywhere soon obviously, so have that discussion when, if ever, that time comes.
