Addressing a disruptive forum member

Ok, to the kid who continues to post under different names and harass the parents here: Leave, no one wants you here. You did act like a child when you threw ketchup at people in McDonald’s. (Assuming the story is even true.) No one cares if YOU leave. It’s the mothers here who actually give a crap about each other and give great advice that we would be concerned about leaving.

To the people who think this is a real person. Check out the last post by the kid now going by Cuny J (he also went by JM and a few others) Several moms posted on there links to this exact same question on a multitude of other sites.

Lastly, to the private messages I’ve already received about me being cruel to this troll. Seriously, learn the whole story before you go messaging someone and calling them names.

Really? I think the PMs were probably ALL from this troll. Can’t imagine otherwise.

ETA: YAY!!! thank you!! now I don’t feel left out!! WOOT! WOOT!!

Jennifer:

WOW! I feel left out!! I haven’t received a PM this time!! I know the previous times I did. But now I’m sad…boo hoo…:frowning: I didn’t get one!!

I don’t think it’s a real person anymore. That thought went out after the 3rd posting and the 5th of 6th PM.

You are feeding him just by posting this.

runs off to PM Jennifer

Never feed the trolls. They are like cats, once you feed them they won’t go away.

We cannot change anyone but ourselves. Ignore it and it will go away. It (trolls) feed on responses like Jo said.

Yes, I get irritated at times but I don’t feel the need to judge. Maybe it’s a troll; most likely is but I’m not going to let it ruin my time on Mamapedia. Perhaps the real message here is to teach us to learn how to let negative things go. When we cannot change something but keep on trying to change it we are wasting precious time and energy.

Mindy, ie and ai are pronounced differently. No surprise the words don’t rhyme. smile

I just got PM’d. Told him he’s probably a 50 yr old drunk loser who needs a life.

I’m new to this site (just joined today), but can’t this person be reported and removed? They, it , whatever it is, obviously doesn’t belong on here, and I’m already finding it very annoying.

seriously, considering this person has posted this same post so many times here and has been reported, and come to find out he/she has done it all over internet, how come admin people cannot get the IP address and contact them? i am beyond annoyed by this poster. every time i see mcds now i cringe because it reminds me of this person. what a freaking loser. huh.

How many people do you think need to tell him off for him to disappear? Sign me up! Shesh, after 13 years on internet parenting sites, I’d have thought that by now wierdoes (is that the right pluralization of wierdo? Typing that makes me think it’s odd that wierdo and hairdo don’t rhyme!) would have better things to do than troll parenting sites.

This is what I told my kids when they didn’t like the behavior of others…

“Pretend he’s not there”

:slight_smile:

It’s sad that some mom’s may not have read the entire line of posts this person was posting.

They have copied and pasted the same thing under several names and said the same story. They PM’d me calling me names and all kinds of things.

I truly believe this is a mentally ill person who is sitting back and laughing their hiney’s off for the people who are sympathetic and getting on to the people who are tired of seeing this person’s request/.

And yet again, I miss all the fun.
I guess that’s what I get for having a life, oh wait, I cleaned all the bathrooms today. :o) Not much of a life, I guess.

And, Jennifer, I am so glad you are not the one leaving. I was afraid to open this post.

Funny thing…it doesn’t bother me a bit. I just scan over it…realize who it is and go on to the next question. Unless Mamapedia is your main focus in life…it shouldn’t bother you either. Who cares if they post or not..not me…I have better things to do than to focus on a troll. All they want is attention..and you are giving them just what they want. Don’t get upset!

This particular poster does not bother me and I guess I can’t tell how others can tell they are the same person posting under different names. If you are so offended by them, just ignore their comments. Once their posts consistently recieve zero responses they will move on to other sites. Being mad or telling them off is only encouraging them.

Just ignore it. Your non response is far more powerful than your taking their bait.

Google this phrase
threw ketchup

It is posted on dozens of sites.
