You can always go post in the unmoderated USENET forum news:rec.games.chess.computers where nothing is off-topic. (Well, actually it's off topic anyway, but nobody can make you stop doing it.) >Sorry that I don't know your names, but I have not cared to much to learn them. There are 3 of us right now. Bruce, Dann and KD. >>3) Yes, and after this post of yours here today, I would ask you to grow up yet >>again.

How do you know where the troublemaker is coming from? If you did a traceroute (which is actually quite simple) then simply complain to the ISP of the offender. If you actually know who it is (which you don't because no one in their right mind would have blamed a CCC moderator) then say so and we could get right to the bottom of it. >I don't know who that is so I am not accusing one >named individual, but it was awfully suspicious that I was stalked then >privately insulted. Just because someone calls you a whinging twit does not mean that they are the stalkers. Actually, you may look foolish to a whole host of people. Are they all the stalkers? Is everyone who points out that you did something stupid stalking you? How do you come up with your stalker candidate lists? >>Your earlier post was not only off topic, but it was abusive (calling unnamed >>people on the forum immature kids, telling them to grow up, and making penis >>size references is hardly nice, let alone the other trash in that message). > >I'd like to know which line is in reference to penis size?

That is very >odd I have never seen a forum that chooses to post real names rather than >someone's chosen login name. I have now come to the opinion that pseudonyms should not be allowed at all. I don't know that it can be enforced, but it has caused enough trouble that I think they should be done away with. >I will appologize for that offensive letter, but I had every reason to be mad, >and I don't like the way you are telling me to grow up.

Neither KD, BM, nor DC was stalking you. For crying out loud. > I think you need to handle the matter more seriously. >Only you and the stalker seem to think that this is no big deal. I don't find >any of this funny! It sure sounds like a troll. I find it very difficult to believe that you really think CCC moderators have nothing better to do than follow you around and make trouble. That would be an infantile waste of time if there ever was one. >>When you signed up for this forum, you agreed to not be abusive, to not post >off topic, and to abide by the moderators decisions.
