This is a TTM autograph website, which involves writing to someone, via their agent, venue or sometimes their home. Addresses are public domain and anyone can find anyone. This website thrives on that. If no one posted addresses, this would be a useless website other than bragging.

What makes you the supreme judge of anything or anyone? It **** me off when some jerk insults people on this site without even knowing them. And to group everyone in the same category is even lamer. Maybe RG should move and get a regular job, if he knows what that is. You know, Eartha Kitt signed a photo for me while she was dying of colon cancer, and it was one of the last she signed via TTM (she passed not 2 weeks after I got the signed photo). If she could sign without complaining, then RG should or quit responding. Did you read how he had upset a little girl in another post? Are you gonna call her an idiot? She ain't got a job. Bet he felt like a bigger tub of lard when he was doing that. Instead of complaining about fans writing asking for autographs (and he could use the excercise), why not complain about getting junk mail trying to get you to switch insurance, or political ****, or sweepstakes with magazines that no one reads. RG was unjustified writing that and insulting people who want his piggy scribble. He doesn't have to answer. And, if you're American, Freedom of Speech includes writing someone and communicating with them. Taking the time to insult everyone who wants his signature seems more like an inconvience than actually signing. I hope no one else wastes their time and money on that ungrateful sot. He's a wanker for writing that, and you are one for agreeing with him. Good day!
Well played!

Way to go Richard Griffiths for setting most of the idiots on this forum straight who send things to these celebrities private home addresses. :lol:
Sent 4/1/12

2 sets of 3 photos (1 for me and 1 for my brother)
2 Trading cards
LOR
SASE
Questionnaire

Recieved 9/1/12
1 Photo signed (unpersonalised)
1 trading card signed (unpersonalised
Questionaire unfilled in
My other photos and cards unsigned
A two page A5 letter which reads :
Dear Mr *******,
Enclosed please find your own photos I have autographed two for you. How did you find my address? Obviously it was put on the internet by some “FAN” without my permission. Now I get letters from all over the world. How much time of mine is consumed in replying? A Lot! Though there is NOTHING i can ask, I notice that “FANS” get lots of money trading signed photos on the net. I do not see loyal fans. The truth is that most of them are chancers looking for free money. I no longer supply photos. I wonder why I even need to sign autographs.
It is nice for you I suppose, to have a hobby that you love to spend time on and enjoy. It may amaze you to learn that most adults and working teenagers are too busy making a living to be bothered with it. How many people who were involved in the making of the H.P films? Almost 2000. How many of them can you send bundles of autograph requests directly to their homes? Almost NONE. I dislike the inventiveness of complete strangers demanding my time and attention as if it was a free service to anyone with an internet connection – worldwide.
Please don’t bother me again.
Happy New Year
RG
Please tell me if I have done anything wrong as I don’t know what I’ve done to upset him. I had seen many successes from this address so assumed that it was valid an

I really enjoyed this part from him telling off all the people on this forum and how they must have no life to send out all these letters to celebrities home addresses. All the wasted hours searching the internet. :lol:
