magman Posted June 16, 2013 Report Share Posted June 16, 2013 Thing is, people lose all sense of perspective on forums, ie that behind the usernames are real people and potentially real consequences. I've picked up a handful of stalkers over the years, ranging from the one who used to follow me about on Facebook hinting that he knew who I was right up to a full on loon/fantasist/serial fibber with a serious case of potty mouth who used to make threats, pretending to be me on other forums, saying he was going to turn up at events I was attending, make false reports to the police to jeapordise my tickets and all sorts of other fun stuff. What these people dont seem to realise is firstly how easy it is to find out exactly who they are and secondly that the person they are bugging is probably printing off everything they send/say etc just in case they decide to act on any of their threats. In the end I and another chap were concerned enough to mention it to our firearms departments. Turns out that my FEO was already well aware of the full on mental one as I am not the only one to have been given this treatment apparently and not the first to bring him to their attention, and that they had been watching his online activities for a while. Some are good fun though But they never turn up at the charity shoots Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vince Green Posted June 16, 2013 Report Share Posted June 16, 2013 You know, Im not gay but sometimes, just sometimes, I think it would be so easy. There are so many gay stalkers out there. If you don't want the crumpet at least give them my phone number. I'll oblige them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
