Tonight on FOX 10pm News in Boston!!! WTF!!
< on 1/30/2014 2:05 PM >

Tonight on FOX 10pm News in Boston is a story about "Urban Exploring" on how state agencies are leaving medical & personal records behind and they are being found/take by Urban Explorers. From the preview of the segment, they are showing locations and some "Urban Explorers" are interviewed and of course they are blacked out so no one knows who they are. Well F*%k them and there bullshit 15 seconds of fame. Rule number #1 is NEVER talk about locations. So now we will have to deal with higher security measures, the state removing all the good stuff we love to read and photograph and people trying to get into locations for the wrong reasons. It just sucks for all of us that do this with a passion and I hope the story is not as bad as the previews was, and let's pray that it is not a full member of this site. regardless if the intention was for good, it's not. Just about all of us here go places we are not suppose to be and we need to not shed light on it. Sorry if it came off as a rant, but some of us here work very hard to do what we do.

Thanks Fox News & the Douchebags that agreed to be interviewed.

I might be cool, but I'm far from a fan.

There needs to be higher security ANYWAYS. So this may be a good time for a wake-up call among explorers. Keep the vandals and thieves out of Urbex.

Yes, but it may let the thieves and vandals where to go

If it weren't for vandals and thieves, none of the city shit would be so easily accessible. Need a fresh abandonment in Philly? Follow the tags!

This seems to be coming up a lot lately. Thing is, lots of people who tell you not to take stuff are the same people going to places hoping other didn't steal the stuff first. It sucks, but it's just how it is. Ed's right, if it wasn't for people wanting to get into places to steal stuff they wouldn't get opened so quickly/consistently.

Edit: however, going on the news and bragging about it is pretty lame.

Is it just me or does the arrogant asshole guy who just keeps blaming it on the "illegal activity" of us urban explorers remind you of the security specialist on the movie Hackers that has a prescripted response about how hackers are these evil do no good vermin who find back doors into systems? Instead of admitting security is flawed. In this case the black dude doesn't want to admit they left records behind and wants to make us out to be vermin.

Oh and really you did a search? Did you miss the rows of file cabinets in deaver that are FILLED with records?

I was about to make a response similar to this. Sure sounds like scapegoating on us for finding the states fuck up. Then they show the location like HEY, HEY GUYS, HERE ARE THE SECRETTTTS! Friggen seriously? Seriously though, I've encountered places like this, some with state secrets, some with medical information, Just. Laying. Out. like there's nothing to protect. Someones to blame for this security lapse, and it sure aint the guy with the camera who comes in 10-20 years later. Though the guys name dropping and sharing the inside with the public are being assholes, especially since the building is at no risk of being removed. Now it's just going to draw attention and probably some asshat arsonist.

Yeah, that's full of some bullshit. Although... for what it's worth, it's also Fox. They won a lawsuit a few years ago protecting their reporters' right to knowingly lie on the air while presenting things as NEWS under the umbrella of free speech. So, you know. Grain(s) of salt. Or, entire salt licks. Or the god damn salt lake. It's very salty, is all I'm sayin'.

I agree they should remove these things from closed buildings.

But you have to look at it from both sides.
Think about a freshly closed building with heat, power, locked doors, locked windows and still owned by the state. Is it okay to store medical records in there? If so, at what point does it become not okay?

So, who is going to be the first to ID the mystery explorer from the interview so we can tar and feather him??

The Durango '95 purred away a real horrowshow - a nice, warm vibraty feeling all through your guttiwuts. And soon it was trees and dark, my brothers, with real country dark.

Ive been to one of the locations they listed many times without any trouble, I went last weekend and security was on me as soon as I stepped on the property and I was asked to leave.

Would that be the wonderful L Shaped location? I was planning a trip there this weekend, although I've been there dozens of times already with no issue I was planning on shooting some nice video with a new camera. But looks like i'll have to be checking out private abandondements instead.

So am I to take it you're not even allowed to walk around the grounds anymore until dusk? After all there was a sign that says that it closes at dusk. It seems to me the long standing thing with the L was you're allowed to walk the grounds until dusk as a park however not enter the buildings.

I notice everyone in this thread is relatively new (as far as UER membership). THis was a huge topic about 8yrs ago. It comes up an goes away pretty quickly, quit get your panties bunched up.

Everyone has a dark side, mines just a little more illuminated.

What was the dilemma back then and what area was it in? Any articles I'd like to read about it.

yea lots of help these assholes have been. glad I got to see this place, probably won't be going back any time soon esp. since the demo is still actively happening too. How much did you love the guy saying all the buildings had been 'cleared' of records, what, you mean the records lying on the floor in piles completely in the open?
and also, to 'Turd' I'd like to see any references too!

This is an issue that happens now and again as the years go on. For a few weeks everything is vigilant and then it drops as they can't share the resources to continue. It's like anytime a location is under scrutiny/someone gets arrested there. Either be real smart about it or wait it out.

Don't put the blame on Fox, even though I'd love to. Blame goes on the person who went in and shared their photos and findings. I won't even call them an explorer.

It'll all blow over by the time the weather is best for getting back out there easily.

There was me thinking that being able to learn how folk very much like ourselves were treated by the state back more than 100+ years ago was part of the privilege of exploring...Maybe not. Best have all that stuff incinerated.
