When I got banned last week, some one from these forums thought it would be a good idea to add me to msn. When I accepted, I thought it was someone from my clan, but it was not.

They started with 'hey', so I replied with 'Hello', but then all I got was abuse and swearing. They repeatedly called me the same insulting names and even got my family involved, with sick comments.

Now I wasn't upset or angery, but I do not want idiots to try and make me angery, I don't care.

The fact is, some one on these forums is the person who added me to msn.

They used the email address: sexy_bunny69@msn.com (no doubt made just for the attack on me)

They also used the screen name 'Yummy!'

I would love to find out who it was, just so I can laugh at them for being a fool.

How do you know it was someone from these forums?

And... Why care?
I often used the Block feature, until I eventually simply stopped signing in. Works a treat, and you never have to think about them again.

I did block them, and I know they are from the TGC forums, because they knew I had been banned. I don't think a guest would have been reading the thread where I had been banned.

Jeku said not to post the image. But the person had said:

If you're really interested in who it was (i would have been), you can always play detective and scan the msn "conversation" for clues in the writing style, (i guess you saved it seeing the quotes there) and compare it to posts here, but that is quite time-consuming.

It was without a doubt very childish behavior on "Yummy!"'s part.

"Stoopid" is a bit too obvious to count as clue . Very childish indeed.

I was thinking it could be Commodore Kid, as I called him a freak, which got be slapped, then banned for another reason.

I know they are American, because he went on about what he did to my "Mom". Only a dead head would use the mum line, sad git.

I'm also sure they thought I had been permanently banned, so I'm thinking that's why they added me to mock me.

Additionally, outside of North America, the word is mum, not mom.

Of course, you can always turn the mum line around...
"She never mentioned it -- presumably you were nothing special, or, more likely... worse than that"
Usually sends these tosspots who use the mum line into a blind rage, but over the internet: There's not a lot they can do, except cry about it

Good luck finding the person, but in reality TGC can't do anything about it. I hope you understand why I asked you not to post the logs-- they were really quite vulgar. I'd be upset about it too, but only for a few minutes before hitting the Block button

Makes me laugh actually...I had an abusive member a while back, really funny guy because he was an idiot, later he spammed my email box, joke was on him, emails of the same 'conversation' in gmail are grouped and you could delete the whole group in one go...And he tried to get my bank account details through a scam thing...but he was pretty stupid because 1. I don't have a play.com account, 2. I didn't have Barclays bank accounts (I do now as Barclays bought my bank out) 3. If I did have one, I never gave the bank details online, nor had I banked online at all...

Luckily I knew who exactly this person was (Forgotten who, so namey names, besides he left TGC a while a go), but I felt I should give him the benefit of the doubt, I mean I got a good laugh and he lost a huge amount of his dignity, so I left it at that.

Good luck finding this dude and send him into the dust...also, please next time you see him, tell him to come and visit me, because I need a source of entertainment as watching Youtube in my spare time waiting for assignments to start is getting boring and samey.

I wasn't upset, I was like "What the hell, who is this guy?". He seemed to think repeating the same insult was the best way and when I said some thing back, he said "is that the best you can do?" I mean, what the hell, he had been repeating the same thing, he definitely had some thing missing.

Honestly, just ignore/block them. I've had people im me with threats, abusive comments, vulgar slang, and it's a waste of their time when I can block their sorry ass in about three seconds.

No, fool. It's Seppuku Arts. See, they start with the same letter. Also, there are two "O"'s in Stoopid and two 'U's in Seppuku. Then, there are a lot of extremely obvious similarities between the names that I will not explain to people with inferior knowledge likes yours.

For example, in both names the 2nd and 3rd letter are the same!

In my tribe, we have this old idea. Every day, when you wake up, you're a different person than you were the previous day. So it's rather pointless to hold a grudge. Noone really believes it literally, but we follow the principal behind it. Try not to let it bother you because to let it bother you is to let them win.

If this person is really out to get you, a witch hunt is not going to find them and could get you into further trouble. The best thing to do is bide your time and see if anyone baits you on the forums. If someone starts baiting you, notify a moderator.

Consider for a moment the probationary period on the forums. Moderators don't clear abusive messages from people on probation and the way probation works makes your account worth that much more when you finally get cleared. Letting people get you riled up inevitably leads to you having to go through probation again. Don't let them do that.

Basically, on the internet, a pacifist policy is usually the best policy. This is coming from someone who has been known to get into physical fights in the real world and is anything but a pacifist. Experience has taught me that you have to choose your fights, don't let them be chosen for you. On the internet, fights are not possible to win unless you're the system administrator or moderator (both of which are incredible responsibilities and stressful beyond measure).

Nothing I say is intended to be rude. My autism means that I do not know what is rude and what isn't rude. I apologize if I seem rude. It is not my intention.
