Has anyone here had a fellow blogger stalk them on here?
I have a blogger who follows me into rooms and has to make comments on my posts. It is getting so silly that i now post in different threads and wait to see if i'm followed in there. It's like having a bad smell follow you around. I thought that maybe if i just ignore him he would stop. I even told him to stop. He unfortunately is too arrogant to stop. I am a straight guy so i don't think it's sexual...but who can tell in this day and age.
Has anyone had a similar experience?

No. You know there are mods for this very reason.

The mods helped me. It did take a while. This guy keep opening different accounts and putting my name address and phone number out there. All of the posts also had VERY big lies about me. That was a real problem.

I'm not really into contacting mods unless it becomes a big problem. At the moment it is just a nuisance as i know he will follow me into threads and try to push my buttons with posts about my posts. I'm not harrased by him but i'm sure there are people who would even stop using this site because of these kinds of idiots. I am at present just ignoring him and maybe he'll get the message. I would hate to think of others getting harrased on here, that isn't why we come on here. It shouldn't get personal to the point of outright stalking and provoking...pity.

You can get the law involved; libel, harassment, intentional infliction of emotional distress are just 3 options. I'm sure an attorney can advise you further.

How did this person get your info?

My fault. In my photos on my profile I have pictures of my drilling equipment. On that is my name and phone number.

This guy left Michigan because of a failing drilling business. Hubby and his two friends are waiting for him to come back.

I'd seriously document everything he has done, take screenshots of his posts and save any and all communication. If it doesn't stop soon, I'd pursue it legally. Has he made any threats? Do you know what started it?

It is over now. The mods did a great job. No threats. Just posted a lot of junk. Hubby passed out money around his home town. If he comes back to the state we will know.

My SIL googled my username and then stalked me. I used passive aggressive tactics until she finally gave up. I think it's both rude and annoying. You would think that adults have better things to do with their time.
