SE: Clearly this is stalking. It has been going on for a very long time. It damages the credibility of this site, it gives me pause about visiting or posting on this site because this same poster has threatened me when I complained. I think you should seriously consider the financial and legal implications of allowing this poster to continue under any name. God forbid that this poster take any action outside of a cyber environment but if it happened, exactly how many posts do you think there are on this site that might establish that this person is deranged and you have done nothing about it.

Interesting legal and moral questions apt23.

"this same poster has threatened me when I complained"

Where have I threatened you? Post the link.
Where have I threatened anyone?

How's this for a link.
Here's a thread that apt23 started, mentioning me in his/her introductory post:

ignore this person
report abuse Didn't want an offer for free drinks to get lost on an overcrowded thread. So I thought I would start a new one to highlight this very generous offer.

apt23, you can simply "report abuse" to comments that you consider abusive.

dc2172, SE is between a rock and hard place with this, but the "report abuse" feature would require 24/7 staffing to effectively remove the posts in a timely manner. Barring that, the "broken window" phenomenon is operative ... except in this case it's clearly not random individuals who would further vandalize the property, but one person who commits criminal trespass and destruction of private property repeatedly.

I fully agree with apt23 here, and I can't help but think there is a legal remedy akin to Notice Prohibiting Entry, resulting in criminal trespass charges, if the real person behind these usernames ever posts here again.

The discussion boards are not a direct part of SE's revenue-generating business model, but they support it indirectly by boosting brand image, so that higher-qualified users will click through to apartment ads, listings, whatever ... or those same highly-qualified buyers/renters/sellers can be so turned off by the discussions that they go elsewhere for their shopping and clicking.

Nice theory. Always love non-lawyers who use big words like they know what they are talking about.

Same would apply though to columbiacounty who is on default ignore but keeps showing up.
Oops

Fine, call me a non-lawyer, but once you're done with that terrible name-calling you'll realize that a notice of the sort I described doesn't have to correspond to who's greyed out in a physical location, so it needn't correspond to that on a discussion board.

And let me take this opportunity to state that I think SE should remove columbiacounty's grey status -- default ignore is not justified in his case; he's a perfect gentleman in his posts.

Interesting, who would have thought I could be either racist or sexist?

Let it go people. please. don't give the asshole any attention.
and don't report abuse. let everyone see what comm stands for. but do repeat this
so that new people know.

Although I do wonder what and why se is doing what they are doing. It may very well backfire

There you go again, the subtle pseudothreat from aboutready, the woman with the Bachelors degree in psychology and no accomplishments since college graduation ... knows it all.

A month or so ago, after revealing her daughter's sexual and medical history, she came on to suggest I hire a lawyer. Hopefully not Mr. Ready, he's still enslaved to aboutready because she paid off his taxes.

Comm I no longer give a rats ass what you do or say. For a while I kind of cared because of new posters but if se doesn't care well, so be it.

You will never cause me any emotional distress.

Cause you emotional distress?

You think that is my goal? That would have been foolhardy.

You are willing to reveal the most private details about you and your family. You have no shame, no ability for normal emotions.
