Cyberstalking
Posted: Sun Sep 29, 2019 9:40 am
Today it came to my attention that Gocarman s17 sonnet had asked in world chat Sonnet for the private and personal details of a certain well known and high ranking player on Gametous - the person he asked currently has a mental disability and luckily gave the wrong details - sadly however the player he did ask did willingly give her own personal details as well as height and weight it was done in world chat
But whether he asked this other persons fb to gain access to other players details is unknown
Gocarman is on this ranking players gametous server and is known to cyber stalk players under various alt names - watching the comings and goings of players timing them and creating fantasies about them
He is also known to impersonate players both here on forums and ingame and talk and gossip in world chat about various players from both gametous and sonnet - sometimes under his own name sometimes under an alts name
He is also known to talk to and respond to his own alts
He will play nice until his fantasies are broken where he will develop a grudge and use pk or world chat as a tool to 'punish' -Gocarman will stalk and harass his targets friends until they leave or stop events making sure the player he is obsessed with is isolated- then laugh about it later
Gocarman from sonnet will normally stalk those he thinks are female but has on the odd occasion become pretty obsessional about high ranking male toons or toons he wants to play with or against regardless of their wants
GMs have been notified but as it is unlikely they will do anything as Gocarman has stalked a few before and nothing done- so players have left or avoided events world bosses and other
He will swear what he is doing is a joke and no harm meant - but players who do not fit his fantasies or refuse his advances are often at his mercy are left feeling angry, defensive and almost paranoid
If stalking a male he will target the girlfriend or who he perceives to be the girlfriend wife etc and visa versa - he will be super nice to them or super nasty depending on situation in order to get to you - like wise if you do not have an ingame buddy he will target your friends in order to further isolate and manipulate the situation
This is a post about how to recognise cyberstalking
Cyberstalking is illegal in most countries
Cyberstalking is a broad term and has many definitions - some include
Stalking is done with the assistance of technology (typically the internet) rather than in person
It is done to make a person feel afraid, threatened, or worried about their safety
It invades a person’s privacy
The stalker monitors the victim’s behavior, threatens them, or makes unwanted advances
The behavior is unwanted or
the victim does not understand that they are being taken advantage of or manipulated
Cyberstalking is or can be considered to be
Someone who uses alts to monitor your coming and goings - they may seem rarely offline
Have as total disregard for your privacy and the privacy of those around you
Harassing you on social media or in world chat or forums
Constantly farm around or on top despite your protests- or your friends
Targeting you non stop to show pleasure or displeasure (often in places like arena, world chat, what ever - you will know it when it happens ) and making you feel as though you should miss events or leave the game as a result of their behaviour
Asking for someones personal details without seeking their permission first
Sending unwanted messages
Constantly praising or flaming or insulting you (or those around you to get to you)
Swapping servers to be around you or those you play with
Constantly spreading rumors about you (good and bad) to try and get control of your behaviour
Impersonating you by making alts under your name - or pretending that the alt they are using is you
Threatening to cause problems for your friends if you do not behave in a manner they demand
Creating fantasies about you and those around you
Twisting their own horrendous behaviour to make you look like the bad guy
Persistent lying to cover their own tracks and bad behaviour
Constant and unwanted targeting of you in both positive and negative manners
Asking the person to stop only to have their behaviour to continue or escalate
If you have a problem with cyberstalking please contact gms and if that does not work make a noise about it and worst case scenario please contact your local police about cybercrimes
You do not have to put up with kind of behaviour in any game
