Default Re: Thinman

Apparently he is threatening to come back and is effectively extorting mslif, saying that if she doesn't post that he's a nice guy (??) he's going to post again. I have no idea what this means since I'm not really wrapped up in the whole Thinman drama but it reeks.

Mat, in the past doing moderation for another forum (120k users so we've had our fair share of trolls), we have actually contacted the ISPs of recurring trolls and either had their services disconnected (all ISPs but AOL will work with us on this) or contacted their work if they're stupid enough to be posting from work. Every major network provider has an abuse department or someone who handles stuff like this. Unfortunately, in the past, it's only been the administrator of the forum that has had the authority to talk directly to their ISPs etc.

I know you're a busy guy, but is this something you might be able to look into?
