How do you feel about having your photo posted publicly in your profile such as on a message board?

When I was on staff elsewhere, I was treated absolutely horribly by members...until I added my photo as my avatar. After that members seemed to consider me human again and treated me more kindly.

When I posted a pic the accusations came from religious women thinking they were so holy and I had to be a heathen because I wear denim. Lol almost everyone in Holland wears denim. It was time to leave. Depends on the people.

Posting a real photo on a public mb is only advisable if one is ok with eventually being found out on services like Facebook, myspace, etc.

Video is even more definitive - it is much harder to fake than photos.

You might recall a certain southern bell from the other place. She posted her photo numerous times - but it really wasn't fully believed until video was posted confirming it. Now she's gone from there - or at least, had her main account banned.

You're married, we are friends, and there is mutual respect.

If you were single, a romantic interest and we had a net relationship of sorts that ended badly, and you were also a popular person on an mb where I was not - and you spite reported me then went on to multiple other websites claiming I had harassed and "stalked" you, and enlisted the favor of some really desperate low self esteem puds with no chance but who needed to feel all manly and knightly in your service....

Then you might fear me. It might be partly real and it might be feigned.

Life is so much easier if you don't bother with faceache. I have two accounts there - one I set up when I wanted to see what it was all about and used for maybe a week before concluding it was a waste of bandwidth. Now I have another to keep in touch with a few specific people and aside from that I post virtually nothing. I still think most of what's on faceache is a waste of bandwidth but sometimes it's the easiest way to keep in contact with people.

I figure if someone is determined enough they are going to track me down. The vast majority won't bother and of the ones that do the vast majority won't do anything silly. If anyone does something silly, I'll deal with it as and when.

There are a few individuals who have not forgotten something that happened 3 YEARS AGO on another MB, and continue to bring up my name even this year. They are puds. Tools of a woman scorned. Desperate and needy and don't even realize they are just that. Tools. My life has been threatened not only by a suspected Admin - but by certain individuals who think they are anonymous on other websites.

All web archived and recorded should anything or anyone come knocking. I have enough to put people in jail if it ever comes to that.

Never mess with an INTJ.

If someone threatened my life on a public message board and I had the information to prove who they were and what they said it would go straight to the hands of the police.

People grandstanding are just blowing smoke, if it makes them feel better good luck to them. If they cross the line into illegal behavior they get to face the consequences.

I'd replace your last sentence with "never mess with anyone who might trace you". Threatening someone online is a really stupid thing to do, given just about everything logs IP addresses and with a court order it's not hard for police to resolve an IP address to a physical address.

There are fates worse than anything the "authorities" could do. They need not involve physical measures of any sort and can be perfectly legal.

Ooh is that what happened? Annoying. They were annoying the way they talked about you then. Are they still talking about it? My goodness. Think I know who it is then. All those single guys on another forum were complaining about it, women who first talk all the time and then they're not interested and they are all of a sudden the stalker. Sounds like an American thingy. Well then you have to pray for them. Pray for those who treat you like dirt, or how was that text? Good luck with that.
LOL those poor guys who had a crush on Saleena.

I think it's more generational than country attributed. Kids are told from a young age now that everyone else on the internet is a predator so they're afraid of anyone they don't want to have their information who DOES get it! It's internet paranoia to the extreme.

Just to clarify, the user was not "Saleena". Saleena is an amusing and interesting character, but I have serious doubts that "she" is even a she. My memory is jogged to certain deleted sections. That's all I'll say.

As stated in another thread, the words "stalk" and "harass" are rather ambiguous and open to interpretation, and especially so when talking of degree.

One thing I did as Calvinator was blow some kisses to two posters. In text and with the onionhead. Then said jokingly they were "holy kisses" so as to play up the whole pretense of a "Christian" action while mocking the biblical text that it refers to (what Christians greet each other with "a holy kiss" nowadays??).

I also said that "icy sass" needed warming.

I also argued with the sassy tiger in a theological discussion (you were part of that discussion, Messy) and mentioned maybe she needed to get laid. lol. That was not among the main points - I was being honest about my views and getting slammed for it in my view -but it was one of my quips.

All these actions were labeled, taken together or separately, as "harassment". Perhaps. I'd call it mischievous fun with my Calvinator alt, and nothing really serious.

However, I did apologize to her over her youtube channel. Maybe that wasn't passed along to the shining white knights, maybe it was, but the point is - there are (and were) some people over there that basically sniff the wind of perceived public opinion, seek advantage and will apply the most ruthless interpretations of words in order to slam and slander someone.

I think some of them think they are earning points or something. Most of those white knights either do not know who these people are irl, or if they do, they are not friends. I watch their social media because I know many of their names. They are not buddy buddy with the people they say they are protecting. It's crap and it's pretense and with the exception of a few, they are full of it.

And btw, the sassy tiger was not the most vocal about the "online stalking". That was someone else. 2 people, actually, and one I was, at one time, in a net relationship with. She knows who she is.
