Please this is no victim blaming, but how the hell does one get stalked and who on earth is this bored or sick to actually stalk someone..? Ive been wondering since years now..

My kindness is often confused with flirting for some odd reason with a large percentage of guys in this game.... Many of them treat this game as a sort of dating sim despite me friendzoning them from the start because I don't do long distance online relationships nor am I looking to date as well when I play this game to have fun and escape from the stresses irl brings around me. This particular stalker follows me around after I rejected their advances and they also tried to blackmail me (failed) in hopes of causing friction between my friends and I. They follow me around and stand near me looking like Michael Myers and emoting at me too even though I don't see them anymore but my friends who visit my homes seen them there. They have tried talking through my friends to get me to unblock them and more. I'm generally very forgiving and gave this guy many chances to be friends only but he always ends up abusing my kindness in hopes of getting me to be subservient to their twisted whims..... The terms of the blackmail (happened outside of the game) was for me to be subservient to them and also control what I said and who I can be around with.... Thankfully my friends saw through his deceit and what he tried to blackmail me with (He used 3rd party tools to have my characters naked and spread online as revenge porn of sorts but that doesn't really bother me since it's not myself irl). All of this took place outside the game, he is smart enough not to harass through tells/say chat directly to avoid the ire of GM's. Fortunately, I never gave them information about myself irl so it's only confined to the game and rarely outside through social media when he tries to contact me through friends.

Did you blacklist them?

Yes I did but he creates trial characters and my friends see him once in a while when he stalks me.
