@earnest has a new account @feminism and is back to threatening me and will surely soon harass others. Beware.

I had noticed it was rather blissful the last few days without my stalker

Well, he is back with a new account @feminism and is back to threatening me.

His last account has such negative reputation from relentlessly harassing people that I guess he decided to make a new one.

Check out his old account @earnest and if you actually spend a few minutes there it will become obvious that he literally relentlessly stalked my account and is in no way just a skeptical curator. He is abusive and now has a new account to abuse people with.

Here are some comments from his old acct:

Help keep the reputation system working by flagging his abusive comments on his new account.

Just wanted to help warn people. I will be going back to ignoring said person now that I spotted him.

(you can also see him spamming this very post with his comments. This guy is seriously creepy, watch out.)

I wouldn't concern your self with him @lauralemons he will get nothing out of being here long term and you can rest assured that nobody with tolerate fools like him.

That's easier said than done. I wake up to like 20 comments + on all my blogs and all are from him so it's hard to ignore. But yeah, I am back to ignoring him. Just wanted people to know this was his new acct as he had some people fooled.

He literally comments on my comments on other peoples blogs too. He just left 3 comments on a comment I posted. lol

Meh..... noone accounts downvoted to oblivion in minutes......
A lion does not concern itself with the opinions of sheep
grrrrowl

I am not expecting him to be downvoted into oblivion in minutes. I am just warning people as he was harassing many of my friends too.

But it will happen. I know it's not your concern, and appreciate the heads up. Wait.....
I am not your friend and this concern was not about me.....
GASP
I can tell this because I am like a modern day Sherlock Holmes. I have not been harassed by @feminism, and @femenism is attacking your friends....
You tried to spare me from the truth by not drawing light to this, and that's part of what I like about you......
I need a minute here....
breathe breathe breathe breath
SERENITY NOW!!!!!!!
Okay, here's the thing.... It'll last as long as he is getting a reaction.... per account he creates won't last long... even I can flap at him with minnow fins and have success. How interesting is it gonna be to him? I am extremely uninterested in him. How are you?
We friends now?
Checking wall........
not yet
:)

:\

I just want people to know he's out there. I am going to back to ignoring all his comments as I did before. I will obviously know he's there as he literally leaves like 20 or more comments on my shit every day but I can easily ignore the fuck out of it.

I know frazzled. Read my post above.... read my last post again. It's pretty great and if your not chuckling a little bitty bit..... well then shake it off and read it again.

Curation is everything, we must protect this platform, nice job. Stay vigilant and keep the awesome posts coming!!

Sorry to hear you are being harassed. As this kind of harassment is so commonplace elsewhere in the Internet, it will be interesting to see how the Steemit platform will handle the situation. As the harassing account is already -2 on reputation, this seems to be going in the right direction. I think downvoting the rep on new accounts is relatively easy, so we'll see how long the harasser will have the energy to create new accounts.

I think these sorts of issues can (and should) easily rally the community to support the person being harassed, so I have confidence that this situation will play out well for you. I'm upvoting your post so you'll have a bit more Steem Power in your fight :)

Wow @lauralemons I agree!
Help keep the reputation system working by flagging his abusive comments on his new account. Hope they give up soon!

hes literally been at it for like 6 weeks, since I joined. lol It's pretty sad. :> But the reputation system worked again (for now) and his new account is at -2.

replied to wrong comment, sorry I've moved it now to where I meant to reply

I guess its been more like 4.5 weeks. Still pretty sad.

Yes, it makes you wonder what's going on in their head! Struggling with something I guess.

Mommy didn't love earnest.. lol

So the obvious question is why?
Why are people so shit. I'm pretty far from being a feminist, but why can't people just treat each other with respect

It's called stalking and like rape it's about control.
People get that way and it's a sign they need qualified mental health help.

Exactly. I am not even mean to people with different views or skeptics. This guy is sick though.

I don't even understand what there is to gain from running around a blogging site harassing people you don't know. At least spamming makes some form of sense because there is money to be made.

Well, this person is a demented sociopath who probably "gets off" on hurting others, specifically (seemingly) women.

The majority of steemit is decent normal folk but I do with there could be some kinda perma-ip-ban for people on this level. It brings nothing to the site.

Yeah, i'd say its one of the downsides to not having a moderator with a banhammer

@pierce-the-veil: Thanks for the heads up @lauralemons!

There are a number of users who are currently banding together to prevent spam/harrasment and, to make sure that quality posts which provide substance to the steemit community do not fall by the wayside.

@pierce-the-veil

But where is this coming from? do know him or something?

I have no idea. Not to my knowledge. This started when I first joined. He decided I was lying about being raped and decided to start harassing me relentlessly.

Wow, some people are awful. I had followed @feminism because I liked something that they posted. Time to remedy that situation.

It's a good idea, to shine a spot light on this harassment. Im sure the downvotes will begin. May as well make this type of nutjob have to go through the effort of creating a new account again and again.

Haha!!! He's making her money on this! I love it! Keep going @lauralemons!!! It's great when somebody bullying backfires. Bad press is better than no press!! Good for you!

I generally make a lot more than this on my posts. The idea here isnt to make money, just to inform people. But, I get your point, and he definitely isnt doing me any harm. :)

This is no place for trolls
