thread_title: Ogrish Spin-off Sites

message: A word to these who think, Ogrish is doing a good job with showing, that reality is cruel:
(1) First, it is a selection, not a complete view of reality, so its wrenching reality.
(2) Second, these who need to watch over and over again videos in which humans get mutilated to understand that this is gruesome are a little outside of this, what defines "being human" - using the mind and think. For the most people this is a good way to avoid unpleasent experiences: If you know a knife is sharp, you don't have to cut of a finger to get to know it will hurt and the best to avoid. You also will not have to watch somebody doing this to know, that you will not try it yourself.
(3) Giving themselves the excuse of "freedom of speech" is a little perverted: First because they focuse on the shock, while explanation would be necessary, second, because they filter the things they show too. Just as an example, with this argumentation it would be totally legal to exhibit child porn and - killing as well. An unpleasent aspect of reality? You bet! Cruel? Hell yeah! The rights of the children wouldn't be violated more than anyone elses who is exhibited there. - So, to lead their own excuse to the absurde: "If" they were dedicated to the "freedom of speech"-thing and thought it to be necessary therefor to show all this cruelty, so they would without question have the duty of showing cruelty against children. But as they aren't doing this they act against their own "ideal", what shows that the argument of "freedom of speech" is nothing more than an excuse for showing cruelty, and no other intention.
(4) It is wrong, thinking, that watching cruelty over and over again would make people more friendly, feeling more engaged against violence - the opposite! People who act against war- and civil-brutality don't have to become hurt and hurt again. Those who do this, and do this themselves - are seriously mentally sick - the opposite part to these who mutilate their own body. --German User 14:14, 8 April 2006 (UTC)

message: Does anyone know the story behind why ogrish changed to liveleak.com?  I appreciate the change actually, I went there just to see the combat videos from places like Iraq and Chechnya and never watched any of the gore content.  But it would be nice to know what exactly brought about the change.  Also is that Financial Times link really just a preview?  I dont see any statement saying you need registration to see the full article and reading it, it seems like the complete thing.  DarthJesus 05:23, 21 November 2006 (UTC)

text: Ogrish sold all its content and brand to liveleak back in 2006.  While only hersay Dan Klinker (not his real last name) who owned and operated ogrish told me he sold everything to liveleak after he got tired of dealing with ogrish and all its affiliate websites.  He said he was transitioning to a new and more stable job and found the offer to be too good to pass up.  I believe he was 26 or 27 at the time and lived in Netherlands.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.8.193.77 (talk) 03:52, 25 October 2011 (UTC)

thread_title: Fair use rationale for Image:Orgishlogo.PNG

message: "Such images' origins are questionable, as in order for a gory image to be taken, there must first be a gory event." 
Well, obviously; if you want a picture of a train wreck, a train has to actually wreck first. It seems that the implication (I'm guessing) is that sometimes scenes were "set up" (some kid thinks he's a badass if he tortures a cat so he can send the tape in), thus not being true to the original motivations behind Ogrish, but then why doesn't it simply *say that*? What *are* we trying to say here? intooblv (talk) 00:57, 5 February 2008 (UTC)

message: Establishment date is incorrect. The site was established when i was at school, i was selling videos from ogrish on floppy and this was back in 1996 so to having proof is a bit hard to come by. The year 2000 i would have been in year 12 but i dropped out at year 10 which makes this date incorrect. I own and run the current Ogrish forums to keep the community alive.
Whois archive shows site was active OVER 18 years ago
back in the 90s the site had only a few videos, a gator eating someone parachuting and an electric chair which was taken from Faces of Death
X: establishment date 20000
