I´m on your side Martine. I just wonder how much privacy someone who posts personal pics on internet expects. This is going out of proportion. Let´s come down people. I´m a huge fan of Maura, but to tell you guys the true, the chance of any of us here "hurt" her (or her boyfriend/his brother/dog...) with a post doesn´t bother me, I doubt she even knows our existence so what´s the chance? But giving a hard time to a fellow poster - who´s here and makes so much to "spread Maura´s love"- as I say -, makes me sad. One agree, other doesn´t - that´s fair, that´s life. That´s what makes life not boring, thank God. But let´s move on, folks. Now, 2 last things: 1 - We really need news/ episodes of Rescue Me and Parenthood. 2 - Fans of Maura unit! (just love this sentence) AMEN!! I 100% agree I also think Martine did nothing wrong.

Personaly I don't care about mauras boyfriend, but this discussion irritates me a bit and I think it's sad that people who seemed to get along very well become so upset over this.

Exactly!
People HAVE to know that every picture they post on the internet stays there forever, there is no way of undoing this. If you don't want private things to become public, don't post them! This is how internet works, like it or not. Maura Tierneys boyfriend might be more careful now, since he is involved with a public person and fans become aware of him.
As for this thread, I didn't read anything which could harm anybody. This is a fanforum and gossiping is a part of that. This is not anywhere near stalking. I think as long as it stays in the threads and nobody starts to bombard MT with private emails, attacking her by words or stalking her in person it's not a crime or even immoral.
I agree with martineke, it is a bit hypocryte to drool over paparazzi candids, which are taken and posted without the consent of the persons being photographed, and getting upset over pictures which where posted voluntary.

It's a shame that some people here can't use proper discretion to decide what is and isn't appropriate. This forum was recommended to my quite awhile ago by a friend, who said it was a generally respectful place. I can see that that's not the case now.
The difference between people posting something on a facebook or myspace page and having it "publicly" used is that, while personal pages are open to anyone, one would hope that the general population is capable of self-monitoring what is right and wrong. Just because something is available doesn't mean it's okay.
As far as I can tell, no one here actually knows for certain that this "mystery man" is Maura's boyfriend, what his name is, or whether this Facebook person is even him. I get the impression that quite a few people are full of it and that internet use gives them a sense of entitlement they should be more careful with.

This is what I meant ......and that is also for everyone who is related with some celebrity ( like relatives of boyfriends / girlfriends ) . Everybody has to take some responsabilities , because the internet is the devil himself . If one person did a mistake here , it's the person who made those pics publicly and not a fan who wanted to share some information because some of you are interested at the subject . I don't give a damn about that FORUM anymore , but I still give a damn for some friends of mine . I probably miss informations and today was probably ... the little too much for you Allie but ........ You allowed the thread , you overreacted today and you should MY f**kING GOD move your ass back in here for your friends .

Dear all,
I support Matine 100%. I think she is just releasing info she's got and received from a third party. She has THE best MT channel on YT and she may be the best link to send info to if you want to share with other MT fans any info you may have about our beloved MT. Like many of you said, if you don't want people to see your personal info on the internet don't post them on line. Martine only SHARED what she had received with us, she could have kept it for herself. People come to this forum because they know we all play detectives every once in a while to have our Maura fix and share info about Maura's work and sometimes about her personal life on the forum. I think if whatever happened here about Mr Maura that was inappropriate to this forum the Mods should have taken care of ASAP.

I would agreee that Martineke provides us with the best most comprehensive collection of Maura videos out there. And I will state again, transfering pictures from a facebook collection to here - especially if Maura is actually not included - without the permission of the poster is out of line. You went through a 3rd party??? Sheesh. Photos there are intended to be shared with friends.
And I do know about the internet and privacy. I restricted a flickr acount when I realized that a bathing suit/beach pic of my daughter was generating 50 times the hits of any of my other 'private' shots.

I think this whole thing got out of hand. And since I normally don’t post very much I just wanted to say that we being Maura fans should stick together, ok yes everyone has their own opinions on the subject but at the end of the day as long as their was no personal information that could be harmful released then its alright. This is a place where Maura fans can share and talk about MT and any news related to her, not a place where people don’t get along. We all still have one thing in common despite our opinions and that is we all LOVE Maura and that should be enough to keep us together.

I think Michael imagine that dating Maura his life and his image would not have been longer so private. Anyone who posts photos on Facebook can't believe that those remain private and don't become public domain on the Internet. Maura in her interview on the Tubridy Tonight Show said to be conscious about the communities not only in fantasy about Luby or Carby, but also on her and Goran together, saying that fun is part of his work. She said "It's sweet". At the same way can be recognized for her private life. There is nothing vulgar or offensive in what Martine posted. I hope you understand my bad English

It wasn't vulgar or offensive....just not Maura. Sure they MAY be dating and MAY be a part of each other's life but it was still....not Maura. This forum and site are devoted to her and information/pics/whatever about HER.
I have been a part of this website for a LONG long time. We disagree and we may leave but in the end, we generally return because this is by FAR the best source of Maura information. Let's just be respectful of her (Michael's??) privacy. Paparazzi postings - yes - because of they are out there we can keep them from generating $$. Facebook or otherwise personal pics - no.
