[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, just wanted to let you know that I had an issue with someone trying to "unmask" me a couple years ago and I asked Jeff to delete certain posts that I had put up that were causing the issue, and also a number of harassing posts clearly intended to try and identify me, and he took them all down no questions asked.

I'm much more careful about how I post now. The mistake I made was in initially not caring about my anonymity that much. I thought "eh, if someone figures out this is me, who cares." But the poster or posters trying to unmask me were pretty vicious in their comments and I realized that people can be scary on here and there is a lot of safety in staying anonymous. Since then there are some things I do not post at all, and I mask anything personal a lot. You have to protect yourself.[/quote]

Yep. There are legit bats*** mentally ill crazies on here. Jeff needs to stop emboldening them. He helps out the crazies when they ask in threads on this sub forum. It’s not cool that he confirms people started multiple threads and sometimes he details their location too. The crazies use that and connect dots. It’s disturbing.[/quote]
Often the location info is to prove the op is not a troll, which I understand but it's not like the people screaming troll are phased by those facts. [/quote]

The crazies feign like they’re troll cops to sus out details from Jeff. Even being a troll cop confirms these people are nuts and spend way too much time online.[/quote]
