The anonymous gossip web site, Claremont Confessions, was deleted by its creator, Josh Siegel CMC '10 a day ago in what can only be described a Frankensteinian undertaking.
We are told that Josh didn't like the negative publicity and bad reputation he got from starting a web site that catered to the lowest common denominators among us. Surprise, surprise. People actually like to spread vicious things against one another when the risks are minimal.
Siegel is to be commended, though, for killing the site before he or Claremont McKenna got sued.

How could CMC possibly be held liable for this? It received no funding and no support from the school.
For the actual reason the site was shut down, see the notice posted on the website.
read: Charles is still bitter because everyone wrote what they really think of him on the website. it wasn't good things.
yes, charles wants to be the only one attacking others on the internet.
Charles also realized that he wasn't doing anything special when Claremont Confessions showed him that every one can throw dirt via the internet.
"Charles Johnson's girlfriend should break up with him."

CMC really ought to have an open forum for discussion. With the slow death of cmcstudents.com, it simply is no longer a part of the school's media.
That said, I really couldn't imagine confessions lasting til the end of the semester. Despite it's initial popularity, it had flash in the pan written all over it. There really is a limit to how many times you write yourself in as the hottest person on campus and still have it be funny.
i'M wRITing this to SLANDER CHAARLES anonymously!
conSERVatives r gay.
lol.
Hardly. Most of the disgusting things said about me I found hilarious. But some people don't take things in such great cheer.
Awaiting liability explanation.
Done on CMC servers.
^ completely wrong.
it wasn't done on cmc servers. it was done on privately-owned servers.
(i didn't bother to correct him because it wouldn't make a difference, but there was absolutely no liability to the school.)
"Most of the disgusting things said about me I found hilarious."
This reeks of denial.
