This is a little bit daft, IMHO.
Yes I have. But the mods don't actually care. After reporting several posts, (not on here) I then asked for the thread to be deleted. I got told 'we don't see anything wrong with what the other posters are doing?' One of them joined up to just attack me. Nothing wrong with that clearly.:rolleyes: And it happened on both of the forums. I then had an unrelated thread of mine (it was the one where they were posting that stuff people mentioned earlier) of mine had turn into pretty much the same thing.
So after this, I PM'ed one of the people invovled (this was the night after being told for calling her a male
They're putting my username into Google, clicking on whatever comes up and then are joining said forums to attack me. Nothing wrong weith that, no?:rolleyes:
I meant on here. You said someone on here is involved so you should report it to a mod if you want it to stop. Can't say much for the other forums, they might not be managed as well as this one
If you think they are searching your name, register a new account and don't put any put any details in your profile.
There are some forums that require you to put certain information in your profile.
Anyway, I came here for some help; a not a debate to whether or not I'm actually being stalekd or not. None of you know the full story.
... and as usual, you're not telling. Which is no use whatsoever. :rolleyes: :yeees:
Just pointing out that you're consistently useless.
"Oh, I've got a problem"
*advice given*
*advice not what you want to hear*
"Oh, you don't know the story, and I'm not going to tell you because I'm a pain in the arse"
:yeees:
He's trying! We all are, but as usual you're so frustratingly cryptic that its impossible
However if someone is constantly harrasing you - sending you nasty message or using your user name or details to pretend to be you and writing malicios things then you can report it to the police.
But you will have to be prepared to give them the full story - you can't just go i'm being stalked - you have to set out rationally what the exact problem is and give as much information as possible.
Your sometimes to confused by what the actual problem is - and you state it wrong which is why people get frustrated with you. So for example in the other thread you said the problem was that you wanted a lap top and you wern't getting it - but that isn't your actual problem - its what you propose will addres the problem.
The actual problem is that you have a visual impairment which means that your eyes dont' focus in the same ways that other peoples do (plus a whole lot more i am not qualified to put properly) which means you have to see things on a large screen. As things which would normally help such as large text etc don't help your proposing that this problem is solved by having a large screen.
Here are some links to sites which tell you how to protect yourself from cyber staking in the future

They won't help with what most people interpret as stalking, but they will solve most of what I understand to be your current problem with people finding your username on various sites.
There are very few sites that require profile information that is actually displayed. Student room for example asks for loads of info when you register, but once you get past user name, email, (hidden ) DoB and passwod it's all optional. I don't know if you can see it, but most registrations forms have red starred (*) fields that are compulsory and the rest you can then leave blank.
EG. I have 2 accounts on Student Room, my personal one and my one when I have my uni access worker hat on, there is no way anyone would link the two up as being the same person, because there's nothing that the two have in common other than the DoB and contact email which no one can see.
The help we are offering is the is the best we can give based on the information we've got. If it's stalking where they are tracing your IP address etc then fair enough, but that's dealt with differently and as such to give advice for that you'd need to tell us.
I didn't find this at all last night. It was moaning at me because I hadn't filled in at least 3 boxes, which when I was regtering, I didn't have to fill in.
Yup - I now have this firmly etched into my mind, as have numerous others.
My personal impression is that you *are* giving the full story but just don't like the advice you have been given. In which case, the responses you are getting are rather restrained because if it was me (and not scary_monster or g_angel or others) then I would be telling you where to stick the advice, and it wouldn't be nice.
And for what it's worth, I have managed to do a g_angel and find your posts on other forums, and from what I can see, there is no 'internet stalking', just the same levels of frustration and paranoia. But now you will probably accuse me of 'internet stalking' the way you have 'accused' kate-.
:yes:
She has now had most of the 'interesting' posts deleted as well. Some of them were quite scathing.
If you are being stalked across other boards then find a private forum where your messages can not be read by non-members. If when about to join another site then change your user name. And never post your email or contactable addresses neither give hint on where exactly you are living except perhaps the town.
Google will continue the way it intends to go on. Those who stalk have nothing else better to do but use it. Give them the finger and unless they are stalking you down the high street in which case kick em in the effing bollocks and a second time for good measure, then get to enjoy fine boards like this.
Best,
Poppi
I totally looked on MSE. Couldn't find anything, but I didn't really know what I was looking for.
She's had most of the stuff deleted.
No. A lot of it was people accusing me of lying/making up my illness and being a 'troll.'
It was all similar to here, tbh. A lot of the same meh.
WHAT IS GOING ON!?!?
After reading the whole thread it seems like a well planned joke Melian might be playing on us. Something like *go to two forums create similar threads and watch the havoc while i be dumb and unspecific*
lol!
oh well, good luck with... whatever your problem is :wave:
Understatement of the year there me thinks
