    I need everyone's advice please

    Hey all sorry to post this around but I need some serious advice.
    Basically I'm being harassed by a player ingame and the GM's are doing nothing to stop it.
    I tried blacklisting him and he ended up stalking me.
    He kept updating his search info to trash talk me and obv he's been talking behind my back but nobody is listening (but it's still annoying).
    This has been going on now for maybe 3 weeks? A month maybe more.
    Why is this happening? Basically he wanted me to fall in love with him in-game and RL and I didn't - quite obviously.
    This might sum things up: http://imgur.com/a/wVjWz <--- just removed this link due to info below from replies (thank you)
    The GM's have a copy of that and yet they just say "we're investigating".
    Any advice would be more than welcome

    Continue to take screenshots and record the times the harassment is perpetrated and the names of the perpetrators.

    Circumventing a blacklist is a big no-no, so hopefully the GMs will fix the problem sooner rather than later :\

    It might not be a bad idea to share that link with the GMs as well as it compiles a lot of information into one place (though I might consider changing the title).

    That is super creepy though.

    GMs may seem like they're doing nothing, but the reality is they do not inform the reporting party about actions taken. Its likely they're taking action, though you'll never know what that action is.

    You can assume the GMs are doing nothing if they reply with something like, 'This is not an issue we can resolve at this time,' or some other reply saying they can't do anything.

    Naming and shaming is against forum ToS and will get you banned. I suggest you remove that link with the name before that happens and let the GMs deal with it. It's unfortunate that you're being harassed but that doesn't make this right and you need to let the GMs do their jobs.

    Copying what I posted on your other thread here, cause I think this is the better place for it than the server specific forum.

    Sadly, the only thing you can do is report and black list him. The GMs take this kind of thing seriously, so they probably are really investigating it and will take action once they come to a conclusion.
    Whatever you do, don't start talking back to him, don't insult him, he can use that against you. Also you should remove the name from the pictures, naming and shaming is a bannable offense and you don't want to get banned over a guy like this, right?
    Sorry I couldn't give you more advice
    But stay strong, don't give in to that kind of behaviour. I hope the GMs manage to sort this out for you soon.

    Some of those images look like they are from the FC screens. If they are part of your FC and the leaders aren't doing anything to help stop them...I might suggest GTFO that FC as it seems like it will just continue. If they aren't part of the FC you're in, unfortunately, the only thing I can think of to stop it, would be to transfer, or keep taking screen shots and reporting it.

    Why do you look up his search info if he is harassing you? Honestly, all you can do is let em speak while the GMs look into it, I would keep the reports going but overall it seems they do it just because they get a rise out of you and see you react. Soon as you get a new message that sounds like the person in question, don't respond and blacklist as well as snap a pic and send it to the GMs. I'd wager they eventually get bored and quit or get punished.

    This is something I fear at times. But sadly since they are investigating the only thing you may can do is just wait for them to handle the situation. If they keep trying to do something, as others have said get a screenshot and sent it straight to the GM's.

    I've removed that link now as I don't fancy getting myself banned over him (thank you for informing me).
    I'm just going to have to sit this out I guess and see what happens. Not alot seems to be done about it so far though.

    Quick Edit: I tried blacklisting him but he stalked me. I've removed him off blacklist so I can see if there were any PM's due my way and if so then I log them and send them to the GM's. They asked me to blacklist him so I did but when I sent evidence of him harassing me outside my fc house (he's not in my fc) they still did nothing. I removed him off BL and now just let him do his own thing, I take logs, I send them to GM's. Either the GM's will get bored first or he will

    I was wondering that too. Stop communication with them, report any harassment, ask anyone else to report anything inappropriate that was said and to ignore them. Unless they do something that crosses the line of the ToS, GMs likely won't intervene.
