    How to stop a stalker?

    So I was friends with this character for a while, but then I wanted to go into another FC, and ever since I've been stalked and get almost daily tells sent to me about the goofiest stuff, saying things like "it's our destiny to be together" and "I want to cling to my friend all day." I ran out of patience with this person and have now blacklisted them, and now they follow me around, dance on stuff outside of my house, and is just an all-around nuisance. Not to mention that their attire is always easy to spot anywhere around, and the emote spams they do announce their presence way in advance.

    I won't say the name of this person, to prevent giving them more attention (I'm sure you can guess if you're on Midgar), but they've become a real creep and won't get the message that I want nothing to do with them. I've sent a harassment report already, and will send more each time I see this person stalking me.

    So how do I get rid of a stalker that won't take a direct message to go away?

    Make a GM ticket, this falls under player harassment and if you've made it clear you don't want the person to contact you the GM can pull up the chat log and give an official warning to the player, or possibly a suspension.

    This. Player support does handle complaints like this!

    Sorry for the 25 troll lovers who liked it, but this, besides being obviously trollish, is one of the worst advices ever.

    The sad part is I actually read it like two or three times... Guess that's what happens when you read and reply to stuff when you're super tired I am disappoint in myself.

    You could always delete your character, make a new character with the same name and then have SE recover your character which would force you to change your name. May want to use a Fantasia potion at that point as well.

    Has this been proven to work? Sounds like a bit of a risk. Not to mention, I don't think anyone should go to these lengths to get rid of someone, though it is a possible solution if it actually works.

    Anywho OP, most you can do is hope he eventually gets the idea and finds someone else to bother if the GM does nothing about it. I will admit I'd be super upset if this happened to me.
