Okay, I'm doing this because I am concerned that this might get ugly.
I'll give the story, then the why this thread exists.
A few weeks back, a younger player (I found out to be 11 later) came into my room and we began talking. I added her to my friends list because she seemed pretty cool.
Things were fine until one night where I needed to talk to some other friends and asked her to leave for a moment. I didn't ever boot her, nor did I ignore her. She stayed in the room saying some awful hateful things to my friends and about us.
I took her from my friends list.
Next thing I knew, every time I was in a friend's room or my own, she would show up asking to be back on my list, saying that she hadn't said it, her brother had...and when I would say she had to earn my trust back or that my list was full she would go stand in the corner and spout any number of things from "cry cry" to "you all hat me" or even "i hat you all i will never come back".
This was a minor annoyance...every night, same thing. all of us hitting ignore or booting her after it got out of hand...until today.
I get a note from my buddy Fly that she has created a new user.
cbshorts.
Yes, that's ONE LETTER away from my username. She comes to my room as this cbshorts and is dressed like me, down to the hair. she starts with the add me to your list, you hat me, i hat you thing all over again. She even took it so far today as to say "punch" and "kick" and "hit" when standing in front of my friends sitting in my room. They put up a good front, ignoring everything she said.
We all have decided just to ignore her (meaning not pay attentiion...we don't use the ignore button because it doesn't last very long!!!) and I tried reporting it to VMK but the "error" window comes up every time I send a report (and I can't use the main page b/c of the birthday problem to report that report doesn't work for me). VMK_Annie said she reported it (what does that mean?)...and I appreciate it but here's my big problem:
I'm afraid she's going to go around impersonating me and being terrible to people. Now, that's not bad for my personal player but it means that people on the Dis boards and other sites who might know me by title only might think that's me, being that the only difference between G and C is a little hangy ball thingie.
I just wanted to warn you all that someone's out there trying to "be" me... arg.
And for the record, after I reported it, she showed up in a room I was in tonight as cbshorts-VMK_Annie's, in fact!
