I was halfway tempted to give 'em a call and find out what I might be doing wrong in the underwater peeing department. :pQuote:

I did a whois search on the page and it's owned by a guy named Jon Norris from the UK
here's his fb page https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100001642026234
because he's friends with Annie Norris, who works at Pure studios https://www.facebook.com/annie.l.nor...ef=lhc.friends
Ew... I honestly don't have any words right Now except ew...
I don't have work today, and I have WICKED cramps so I am chillin' on the couch with my cats, my laptop, and a bottle of Midol. I have plenty of time to Facebook stalk, so I'll be super-creeper for all of you who actually have responsibilities today.
Jon Norris owns the website (thanks Phaylenn!), and appears to be the father of Annie (the person who founded the pole dancing studio). I'm wondering if she built the mervert pages or if he did....
Thanks for alerting me. I'm at work right now so I can't work on this until this evening, but I've looked over the website and read through this thread so I'm up to speed.
So far we know that this website seems to be for an actual poledancing fitness business in Herefordshire England. The website uses an html element called iframe to embed MerNetwork.com in a page on their site, as well as the website for the iridescence mermaid troupe, who is likely unaware that they're being watched by these people. I'd like to clarify that the iframe element of HTML is a basic part of the language, and their use of this site on a page of their website does not involve any hacking or security breaches. It may be possible to modify this site to prevent it from being able to appear in an iframe, but I'm not sure.
As for the identity of the people who made that site, based on the whois search and the facebook group, it does appear that Jon Norris made it. It is unclear why. It is also unclear why the pages are labeled mervert, since that seems like an admission that this site is meant to be creepy and disturbing.
I'm hoping I can look into this further tonight.

if you find this as weird and creepy as I do... feel free to let them know! They dont seem to understand. https://www.facebook.com/PurePole/po...89331314452126
I love it when they start with oh I would of gone to Canada (people don't seem to realize we're the second biggest country in the world. one does not simply "go to Canada" lol) but you held me accountable waaah.
This entire thing freaks me right out.
I'm just gonna add that Jon Norris kinda looks like Gordon Shagene. Ok, I'm done.
I am glad they took the pages down, but I am amazed at how they are going to defend the ignorance. At least I am going to hope it is ignorance because otherwise it is just another example of disrespectful people doing disrespectful things. It is awesome that she was gifted something she wanted. However, if you are going to put something like that out on the internet you need to do your research which they clearly did not. AND if they did do any they simply through it out the window and used offense terminology and then got hyper defensive when someone pointed out that it could be taken very offensively by the community of people it reflects.
I for one was surprised to find visual confirmation he has a brain https://scontent.xx.fbcdn.net/hphoto...e9&oe=573E3D59
Ok, so what exactly is she claiming was given to her as a gift? The free diving voucher? Ok, but that doesn't explain the other creepy content...
Oh look! It's gone! Poof!
the plot thickens...?

Also if you go look at the thread on FB Raina shared. She says it is private but that was a public webpage. I am thinking this is caused by someone who doesn't entirely understand that anything up online like that is PUBLIC unless you set it to be secured to a login to access the content of the page. Hopefully this will be the end of it and we can all move on.
Be careful about talking to this guy. You may be feeding the troll. It may be the reason he created this site is to get mers to rage against it, and while we do, he sits back laughs, and "collects precious tears".
Edit "SA goons": For those who do not know, this refers to the Something Awful forums, who's members call themselves "goons". They are known for stuff like those (now gone) webpages.
The conversation taking place on Facebook doesn't include this man.Quote:

then she blocked me and while she blocked me I was trying to turn it around to settle the whole thing, so I jumped to my fanpage and left her this:

It sounds like it was just her dad who caused all these problems. If she just turned 30 good chance he's in his 50-60's and maybe isnt very internet savy and just tried to do something fun for his daughter. Bad move though on some of those choices because the creep factor was high.
I also am worried if she's going to a mermaid school that makes all these outrageous claims...
I'm getting notifications that some of you are replying but she banned me from her page so I can't see lol.

The source of some content I guess?

I can't see any of it anymore so she either deleted it or blocked me too.
