You could have used the blacklist function on line 2 and end the convo permanently. You didn't, because you wanted something to report.

Take responsibility for your own actions before crying about others actions.

Was not responding to the OP I was responding to your post within said thread and figured I would offer you some friendly advice to avoid potential issues like that in the future.

Isn't OP the same person that tries to pick fights with K*w* F*rms?

Yes.

I have no idea who 'k*w* f*rms' is, at all. Don't appreciate the slander either.

Slander is spoken. When written, it's libel.

Unfortunately, this is a significant problem in FFXIV. I've managed to get someone banned in the past for making comments very similar to those you received, but they were unbanned within 3 days and continued to stalk me in stealthier ways that allowed them to evade further punishment. Their character is still active to this day, despite literally threatening to find my address and dismember me, along with repeatedly admitting to buying gil in the same conversation.

These types of people are largely deriving enjoyment for your reaction to their behavior; Sadly the most effective way to get them to leave you alone is to just ignore them and kind of take the abuse without responding in any way. If you can go long enough without cracking, they will eventually get bored and leave you alone.

For the record: my question was not slander or libel.

I am sorry for the harassment you've endured, but picking fights with people on this forum is not going to help your case.

"Isn't OP the same person that tries to pick fights with K*w* F*rms?"

I have no idea who that is. It's hard not to feel attacked when someone claims you're someone who picks fights with someone you've never heard of. If you don't wanna name in public by all means send me a message or tell somewhere, but I well and truly have no idea who you're talking about.

As someone who had seen everyone involved in real time, I can confirm that we have a very unhinged sprout who had been actively trolling in NN and, upon receiving their justified kick, would proceed to flood the /tells of the person who had kicked them. OP was not the only one affected by this.

The course of events was that they had been that first, they had been flooding NN with NSFW messages and eventually got kicked. On their return, they started spewing insults and verbally attacked the mentor who had kicked them. Another mentor kicked them. On their return, they started ranting about DEMOCRACY and U ALL SUX after which point OP kicked them. OP had received verbal abuse from this sprout after the act. Other people who I know had kicked said sprout (for trolling / baiting for drama / flooding the channel with NSFW and refusing to stop when literally the entire channel was calling them out) also had gotten verbal abuse/threats.

So I can, at the very least, verify that part of OP's story.
