I have 12 notifications from this arse on all of my recent Oppo posts. Seriously, how are people physically unable to just leave me the heck alone and stop harassing me?!?! :(

This is why I hate how Kinja encourages burners.

Also, someone stalked me enough to figure out my birth name. The fuck?

Wow, that’s pretty fucked. Kinja techs can do an IP ban, right?

What the actual fuck is wrong with people?

What’s most depressing is these sacks of crap walk among us in society.

Those look like moles that he’s suggesting you remove. I suppose there is a chance that the burner is dermatologist....

On a serious note, this is bullshit. 1) that they would go so out of their way to be an asshole towards you, and 2) That they used Steve’s handle.

Report it as hate speech.

What’s the actual Kinja account?

It seems that a lot of these trolls we are seeing around lately originated from GOMI. I've seen them a lot of Grouptalk dot kinja. Just a bunch of shitheads with no lives. They seem to get off on judging people.

Yeah i don’t understand with this.

Even if someone has a personal opinion / ideology that doesn’t agree with your decisions, what the fuck is the difference? Why even say anything if it isn’t part of a discussion?

It accomplishes nothing...

People man. Lots of them suck.

I’m pretty sure Kinja doesn’t record your IP, as part of the whole “we want your story tips and we will never say who you are” crap they think people will use.

I’m honestly really surprised that they thought that would ever fly. Seriously, getting information from random internet commenters sounds like a shitty source of information considering it’s pretty damn easy to lie on the internet. This is where I have a few problems reconciling the whole thing, since personal freedom and anonymity are good, but accountability and being able to restrict those who only want to insult and harm others is also important.

Fuck’em. Too scared to use they’re real name to throw shade so they just hide.

I personally don’t condone harassing people to cut their hair. A person’s hairstyle is their own personal preference and not something to be endlessly judged by others. I fully support my girlfriend’s decision to get rainbow-colored hair cut in some Korean style that makes her look like the bastard child of Skrillex and Rainbow Dash.

Being serious, though, this is seriously fucked up. All of my m-f friends are preop and have had to deal with this sort of shit in person. I’ve never been in a physical altercation, but that would probably change if I had to see someone being this shitty in person.

They’ve been blocked, will see if we can do anything more.

Ugh. I'm sorry you have to deal with people like that. I wonder why they're pretending to be Dusty Ventures

That sucks: I bet you get enough of that shit IRL without dealing with it here too.

Hopefully the Oppo support pile-on which is about to occur will go some way towards compensating for this asshole . Have an anti-troll Smart in solidarity:

Killing burners isn’t going to help much though: just means the trolls need to spend 5 minutes creating a burner identity elsewhere first. As CB says, hopefully there are other ways to put the brakes on him

I’m a bit alarmed to see that Kinja display names apparently aren’t unique, too: that has the potential to really screw the community if someone goes to town on abusing it. I assume its the LoremIpsum asshole the real Dusty was going off at in your defense recently?

not only that, but they’re posing as someone they clearly aren’t...

some people are such pieces of shit.

I do not understand blind hatred, and I don’t think I ever will. What has your lifestyle ever done to someone else?

People are just insensitive assholes.

But it’s not the real Dusty because the real Dusty isn’t a piece of shit. Also, fake Dusty really needs a life.

GOMI is also using Genius now that their beloved forum got shuttered. Idk, I think this burner may be from Oppo. That is, unless they are stalking actual Dusty too. lol

Possibly, I reported the commenter that Dusty helped me with...could be him making a burner in a fit of rage? But wtf, that would also still mean that he had to go back over a year in my past to get my birth name.

Hey, we’ve been dealing with a recurring server issue which causing notifications to be duplicated several times over. It looks like, at least in one instance here, that you received one notification that was duplicated over and over. If that is not the case, please let me know!

I take it back, after further investigation it looks like the account is posting several comments. My bad! Oppo mods have blocked the account here, which is the proper first step. Please alert us if new burners are created to continue trolling you.
