MO

Hello,

I am a member of a message board and 3 members their decided to harrass me for so long that I finially left the message board. Well, I am still getting reports they are saying horrible things about me on that message board.

The worse part they have followed me to another message board. I have left one message board, I have changed my name several times on the message boards , but somehow they always figure out it is me and I have no idea how.

I have talked to both board owners and so far nothing has been done with them. Once, they were banned, but somehow they just signed back up using different user names.

I have left one board because I could not get them to stop - no matter what I did. Do I have to leave this message board also? ( the one I am on now..not this one)

Here are just a few things they have done to me. I do not know why I was singled out. They do harrass other people also, but I am their main target for some unknown reason.

They say the following listed below and alot more. I do know from older forum members these are not kids - they are grown women in their 30"s - 50's.

I stink

I am stupid, dumb, etc.

I lie ( which I do not)

This one upset me the most - because I know it is not true, but alot of the other forum members may believe it.

They ganged up and said one of them had slept with my husband. They said he was easy and it was good sex, that they had a video and others have seen it, etc. etc.

I only know them by their user names.

What can I do?

Can I sue? Press charges? ...I just don't know..please help me on what options I do have.

I have left one message board over them I do not want to have to leave the second one. I have some friends on both boards. I feel like they are winning and I don't know how to stop all of this. It has went on for almost 3 months now.

Please help asap

Life is not fair. You're a teenager (no one else would say someone in their 30s is "older") posting on a board where there are older and more mature people who have broader range of education and experience than you do.

You got your feelings hurt.

Find a board more in line with your age and expectations.

I would recommend that responders review this particular OP's posting history before you respond....
