multiple profiles just to harrass ppl


I am a frequent visitor to a public group room and I enjoy chatting with quite a few of the regulars there. Because I am a visitor there in the wee hours of the morning (I have insomnia), I often get to chat with ppl from the other side of the planet.

There are at least a couple of ppl who also visit the room on a regular basis but their only purpose is to harrass ppl. I just don't understand how ppl get such a thrill out of doing this that they spend hours preparing for and engaging in the harrassment.

The one main person has changed to a new profile six times in an hour because she knows ppl are iggying her. LOL Can you imagine how much time she spends creating these bogus, fake profiles ahead of time so that she can exit the room with one profile and re-enter the room within minutes with a new profile? And she makes these profiles 'unavailable' so her handle doesn't show up on the list of ppl chatting, making it more difficult to block her. She and her friends go back and forth, making nasty snide comments about what ppl are talking about, making up stories about ppl who are chatting....it's hilarious, sad and maddening all at the same time.
The one thing I am very happy about in this room is that no one attacks this person and her friends. That is exactly what she wants....a fight. She and her friends are not worth the time and trouble. We go about our normal chatting and soon her harrassing posts blur into the background.
I hope that regulars in the room will continue to visit there....it is also a normal inclination to just leave the room due to the ridiculous harrassment...that's also what she wants.
It doesn't do any good to report her and her multiple handles to Adult Dating zone. Her IP address changes all the time...as it does for all of us. You have to actually either pay or go through the computer process to keep one IP address. Since she doesn't want to be tracked, I am sure she lets hers change all the time.
Thanks for letting me vent.
I know most of us have run into members like this. I just have never understood their mentality....what about all of their harrassment thrills them? Is this really how they get fun in their lives? How sad.

It IS sad, but you'll only make your head hurt trying to understand. I think you're already dealing with it correctly.

I wonder if there is a way (transparent, verifiable, and fair) for the bloggers etc to keep track of serial harassers? Several bloggers have left because of stalkers.

When the going gets weird, the weird turn pro.

The only thing we have to fear is fear itself.

These ppl I write about don't harrass bloggers, as far as I know, tho I am waiting for them to find and comment on this blog lol As soon as they are identified, they will change their handle anyway. If anyone has an idea how to keep them away, I'd be glad to hear about it. They do drive ppl from chat rooms and I would not be surprised if they have been the cause of members leaving the site...
