Frank deleted the account regarding the abuse...so that makes the forum a good place for all of us..Guess this does happen but not normally talked about,,I will talk about anything as long as it does not upset others...
We have always been free to speak here ! Never have I heard a complaint nor read an abusive post ! We respect others and their opinions regardless of the topic discussed ! Although we do try to keep topics relevant to this forum !
And the more we get along well with each other and continue to have fun and enjoy each and every post and comment. The more pain someone else is feeling... So he (this unknown trouble maker and stalker) then tries to somehow instigate a fight, while using a fake profile. He does something like this, so that new members leave in disgust. That's basically his game. But he isn't very successful at this, yet he tries and tries again - Hallmark of a first class nincompoop! Anyway right now he must be steaming mad, literally foaming at the mouth like a rabid Dog - That I've figured out exactly who he is. And why he keeps doing this. I've been a member over here for 11 years now. So I know exactly who is the good, the bad, and the ugly.
we love those films and can watch over and over again...thanks for your insights S-H it is good to feel such insights, but do not get carried away..it could be just a weirdo that actually has nothing to do with me, just happens that I got noticed...
It could indeed be as you say... But I once brought a friend to this forum. And very soon she too experienced something a lot like this. So she left without saying anything. Only a lot later did I find out why she lost interest in being a member over here. However I told no one about it. But now I can recognize the same pattern. So I have reason to believe that this person hates me in particular. And so anyone new who interacts with me, often becomes a target. Therefore I now have a very good idea who this idiot is - He is deeply racist, who also hates my country and culture very much. But can't openly say so in public. So that's why he is occasionally making trouble over here, with fake profiles. Not going to say anything more, as this is now a part of an on-going investigation...
Wow I am shocked. I have been a member of this forum since 2006 and have never heard of anyone getting abusive messages!! It always seemed to me that we all got along fabulously! I'm sure it will be resolved ... Frank is awesome
I reported the page in question to Frank almost immediately and he deleted the new account. Whether he gathered any other information like IP address, I do not know, best leave it to Frank to manage are my thoughts.
Frank takes care of problems quickly and thoroughly. We here on the Stew are lucky to have a safe place to share our thoughts, advice, and ask questions.
After reading this thread I decided to post something that someone that is still here PM me about the photos I posted. It happened about 10 years ago and I cannot forget about it. At that time I was using a very simple instant camera and I had taken much effort to take those photos to post on my thread. Then this person who had just joined us PM me to tell me about my poor photography skill and I should have done this and that ... short of telling me not to post photos like that. Hey, who are you to tell me things like I thought to myself and I ignored him from that day onwards till today. This person thinks he know everything and talk/post to show off. Sorry I have to get this off my chest. To that person I am sure you know who you are!
Given that I just came here from another site due to this problem.... Well, I'm sure administration here will be more responsive than the thirty screen-shots I sent with abuse that were completely ignored over a year.
KK, how terrible that such a nice man, great gardener, and all-around valued member was attacked in such a way. You were right to ignore it. My daddy taught me "never argue with an idiot. He'll wear you down every time with sheer experience." Treant, welcome. The other site's loss is our gain and we're happy to have you here!
