How to stop a stalker?

[DoctorPepper]

That may be true but, the thing I think is important is the harassing guy's intentions. This kind of blatant fixation is harassment in my opinion. His intent *is* to harass. Since it's willful, correct me if I'm wrong, but this kind of bothering is against the rules. The OP already blacklisted him. He quite certainly knows he is blacklisted and that is why he is emoting instead (since you can see emotes even from a blacklisted person - I've tested this). He is trying to get around being blacklisted. This shows he know he is harassing.

While I agree with you I don't think SE will handle it in the same manner. People spam job abilities on random people in cities, spam emotes on random people in cities. None of that is considered harassment but the only reason somebody would do it is to harass another person. I'm sure his persistent confessions of love could be considered harassment but that's why they implemented the blacklist, so people could handle those situations without the need for support to get involved.

If I'm being perfectly honest, I think the OP needs to lighten up and ignore the person. Half the reason he's so persistent is because it gives him their attention and that's what they want. Once he realizes he's wasting his time and getting no attention he will go away.

Sadly I think you are right there Doctor.

I know SE does handle harassment reports, but I know the terms of harassment have to be rather specific.

Honestly I don't know what they would have to be for SE to actually do something.

Best case scenario though is they put him in GM prison and talk to him for a bit or temp ban him for three days. He could still come back and do it again. All SE is going to do is try to discourage him *if* they do anything at all.

In my case, I had someone after me at one point as well. I put in a report, but I'm not sure it did anything. He was at it for months, but eventually he grew tired of it. It took a while to get over his attempts at defaming me to others. Eventually he tried to make up with me and left me alone, so I guess that is good but. I felt rather helpless to the situation. As you said, my only recourse was to try to ignore him. Giving him no response seemed to help, but it was painful.
