This has been bothering me for quite some time now, probably for about 2 months.
Hikaruu should know what I'm talking about.
When anime fans and fans of other categories surf the net as a passion, they
meet other fans who are here to have fun. Take MT as an example. I've been here
for well over a year now and I've met lots of friends of the same
interest.^^
There is this one person that keeps.. stalking me. We met at a small forum about
a year ago that eventually had to shut down because of so many rules broken.
That person added me onto their MSN list. We talked, and we eventually became
good friends. I introduced him to my 2 best friends and our friendship became
even stronger. Little did I know that this person actually liked me.. as a
special someone. I rejected, I couldn't have..
After that, our friendship became weaker, and he thinks that it's alright to ask
out one of my friends that we got together with. Like, WTF was that? My friend
almost fell for it, but I got so pissed off when I found out that this person
was actually going out for.. it.. with another girl that we don't know of, and
having my friend on the side! This weakened our trust down to a 0%. I couldn't
stand what this person was doing. Therefore, we blocked and deleted him off our
MSN, and decided not to see him again, ever. Me and Jen (my friend) had enough.
Why am I posting this thread? I'm here to seek help from other MT members. You
may have experienced this kind of situation before, but this is my first. Things
like this lose my concentration. At the time, I was failing school because of
this thought. It was also my first year of high school, which bothered me even
more. He stalks my website (Last-sin), my forum, my blog and almost everywhere I
go. Soon enough, he'll find me here, leaving me with no privacy
whatsoever.
So with that, I'm asking anyone that can help. Please.. and I pray.. for any
suggestions that I can take in avoiding this certain person. He is a 17-year old
and it seems that he just recieved his driver's license. He knows my phone
number and where I live, and lives about 40 minutes away from my hometown. I'm
pleading all I can, that I can recieve help from here. I trust MT with all of my
heart, and I hope that it will be of assistance to the crisis that I'm in.
Wow . This seems to be quite the dillema, well first of all I think it was a very
big mistake giving that kind of information out like that in the first place,
not a very good idea because the situation can get a little out of hand now.
Thats really unfortunate that your friendship with him had to turn out like
that...but all I can suggest for now is making sure your not alone around home
and if things get a little serious call the police
...does anyone else besides your friends know about this?
As far as your forums, website, etc you might be able to have him blocked by his
IP address. As far as going about it I'm not completely sure. I know how you
feel. Also as far as him driving up to your home town, etc If a problem arises
call the police...
I honestly wish I could give more info and help you more. But I'm sure there are
plenty of members here that can fill in my gaps or even provide even better
info.
Just 2 of my friends and a few other online friends that we hang out with. We
trust them, because they like to be the type of people we like. I knew that it
was a huge mistake giving out information like that. Jen also gave her number,
so we felt horrible.
We hate him, and we hate him for life. He says that he's better off without us,
but I still don't understand why the hell he's still sending emails, if he
really IS better without the few of us around.
Since it's no more just an online stalker, you should talk about it with adults
even if this guy doesn't try to contact you IRL. I think it's really hard for a
victim to "know what to do".
For him going on sending emails, he obviously lies, or he's too obsessed or he
wants to mend these relationships.
Draconis112 made a good point, by blocking his IP address could help avoid this
guy. Although the email thing is a bit strange but just as long as there are no
leading threats, I think it will be fine just avoid it as much as you can.
Another suggestion you could use, if your scared he's going to call you, is to
simply just change your phone number...thats what my cousin did when her
ex-boyfriend would not stop calling her , it worked out fine at the end
I am unable to block him. He seems to have this sort of hacking program that
enables him to change his IP address, which really ticks me off. For now, I do
with deleting tagboard and comment posts and deleting users who are registering
that I suspect and know that it's him. I block as many IP addresses as I can.
According to the forum host that I'm using, I can also block usernames and email
addresses. Don all of those, but he just wouldn't give up on creating new email
accounts and changing his IP addresses.
Changing phone numbers? That's a toughie, especially when it comes to my
parents. ^_^;;
well, if you really don't want him you can have your forums,websites block out
his IP though i'm not sure how try asking your hosts. as for avoiding him IRL
you can report him to police if he ever make hints about dropping by or just
tell your parents
Yea I dont think the parents would want to know about this situation huh?
Well thats all I can think of right now, good luck and I hope it really works
out!
you can block him i mean thats what i did for this one guy who was kind of being
a stalker and i know him in real life and luckily he never came to my house but
anyways he was saying some gross things to me like saying he wanted to have sex
with me and he kept asking me personal questions and i blocked and he changed
his screenname and he didnt remember what he was doing and he kept telling me it
was his sister who said it and i just didnt believe him so i blocked him again
and he hasnt try to contact me since
Contacting the police is the best resolution, but I want to try to stay away
from that, It is my last solution to use as of now. As for email, I just created
a new one about a month ago, I don't want to try creating another one again.
Blocking him is fine for now.
Thank you anyways, minna-san. ^__^ I'll just try to avoid him as much as I can.
It's not much of a bother right now. The last time he bothered me was on
Thanksgiving, (Canada) when he sent another email..
Well, you do realize it all started when you rejected him. I'm not saying its
your fault, just that some people cannot handle rejection, and you happene to
meet one of them. It could be quite troublesome since he has a fairly good idea
how you look, knows where you live, and your phone number.
I'd suggest going to a higher authority if the situation does happen to get out
of hand, in otherwords he actually tries to approach you in real life.
Restraining orders seem weak, yet if used properly, he just might think twice
about crossing that boundry set for him. Other then that, if it stays strictly
online, then keep using the new account and such, keep him blocked, and most
importantly, don't sweat the details. A lot of good it'll do if you stress
yourself out over it all.
If you don't really want to go through all the trouble and if it just stays
online, its best to just ignore him. If he emails you etc. you can just delete
or ignore the IM. After a while, he should get fed up and leave you alone. BUT
if hes the really obsessed kind. He may try to contact you in real life since
your ignoring him online. If thats the case you may want to contact
authority.

You can talk to your parents and then call the authorities.
The vault!
call the police
Online stalking huh? *sweat drops
Anyways just ignore it. Does he knoes how u look like in real life?
He knows exactly how I look like in real life. Not a clear picture, but yes, he does.
