RE: Does Steemit really need to endure this ?
Yeah I have thought of that myself. But maybe if a perma-ip ban was in place and he created a new acct that was obviously him he could be reported and banned again and eventually if he had to create a new ip address every time he wanted to create a new account he may give up? I don't know it is honestly a really hard thing to stop thats why in my blog I just called people to let the reputation system do it's job and now he has -2. So, his comments are auto hidden. When a person makes an account to leave things like "coming for you" and "open that asshole" and "I am going to fuck you up if you keep being the stupid little bitch you are" on a users account relentlessly they deserve to be hidden. So, maybe that is all we can do? That and once he is in the negatives, try to ignore him and give him no satisfaction. I mainly just wanted him to be hidden again like he deserves.
Yeah, I totally agree with you that this shit sucks and should not stand. It's just... all he has to do to get a new IP address is walk over to the next coffee shop. At least he's hidden for now...
Eventually the stalker gets tired, or a new target diverts their attention. You just have to be patient with these things. They eventually fizzle out.
It's been more than a month now, and this person still goes for it with personnal attacks. In theory, not feeding the troll should starve it out, but how much can a target take before that happens ? ... There has to be a better way.
I would be for an option to completely ignore a user, that means not seeing that person's posts, replies, and preventing that person from affecting the vote count and potential payouts. I realize some may call this censorship, but how else can you prevent obvious trolls from affecting a poster ? not everyone has a thick skin, even then, at some point, some stuff eventually gets to you no matter what ... How can Steemit as a community help with that ?
He's not getting tired as long as he knows he is visible to the receiver.
I've posted a petition on this issue.
