@hoit21 Hay there. How's it going?
Sunday, 23-Oct-11 06:59:35 UTC from web -
@hoit21 A little depressed. Being at my cousin's house does make me feel a little better.
Sunday, 23-Oct-11 07:08:47 UTC from web -
@hoit21 Cyber bully problems. It's been going on for about a week now...
Sunday, 23-Oct-11 07:11:33 UTC from web-
@pinhooves Screw their firmwares. That should make the bully buy a new pc by making every drive useless.

@hoit21 I did nothing wrong. I used to be friends with this person, until he became mean to others. I left him, and he's doing this for no reason...
Sunday, 23-Oct-11 07:14:01 UTC from web -
@hoit21 This is serious though. They're making hurtful videos about me, and going through personal property of my parents facebook profiles. He's taking pictures of me from there and using them to make me look bad.

@scribusmyers I didn't do anything to deserve this though. I really wish I knew why this was happening. :(
Sunday, 23-Oct-11 07:26:20 UTC from web-
@pinhooves It's happening because the guy's a jerk, nothing more to it.
Sunday, 23-Oct-11 07:29:45 UTC from web -
@pinhooves That's part of what I mean. You didn't do anything to start it, you can't do anything to stop it. All you can change is your reaction to it. I know it's hard, and I'm far from good at doing it myself, but picture your experiences as an ocean. Waves come and go, you rise and fall, but every up and every down is just a moment in time, soon to pass and leave you still floating.
Sunday, 23-Oct-11 07:31:04 UTC from web-
@scribusmyers I just really wished this would stop, and non of this ever happened...
Sunday, 23-Oct-11 07:36:13 UTC from web-
@pinhooves none*
Sunday, 23-Oct-11 07:36:20 UTC from web -
@pinhooves What I find helps a lot when something unpleasant happens to me is to allow myself a beat or a pause, then taking a deep breath and saying (with a slight smile) "Well, that happened." I mean it literally; I use that phrase. "Well, that happened."
Sunday, 23-Oct-11 07:45:37 UTC from web-
@scribusmyers But...I can't just ignore this problem. I'll take your advice, but I really need help. :(
Sunday, 23-Oct-11 07:51:52 UTC from web-
@pinhooves I'm not saying to ignore it. That's like telling someone not to think about an elephant - it'll be the first thing that comes to mind. I'm suggesting, in a way, to accept it. There must have been other hurtful moments in your past - do they still worry at your mind, or have you come to accept them as part of your life?
Sunday, 23-Oct-11 07:58:09 UTC from web-
@scribusmyers This is the first time I've actually been cyber bullied, and I'm really taking it bad. To be honest, this is much worse than anything else. I haven't worried about anything in the past. I've been scared to reveal myself on the internet, and he's doing it for me. I'm just really scared right now.

@scribusmyers He's revealing personal information about me. (That's what I'm being told. I didn't watch the videos. I'm too afraid to, sadly)
Sunday, 23-Oct-11 08:04:29 UTC from web-
@pinhooves Information like what? Name? Address? Social security number? Favorite foods? I didn't bother to watch them when I reported him, either. I didn't want to up his view count.
Sunday, 23-Oct-11 08:06:36 UTC from web-
@scribusmyers I don't know to be honest. When you put it that way, it sounds pretty stupid. I do know he's trying to reveal my secret about being a brony. (It's kind of is ridiculous that I'm keeping it secret, but I don't feel comfortable telling everyone about it)
Sunday, 23-Oct-11 08:11:44 UTC from web-
@pinhooves Well, you don't need to "go out and tell everyone" about it. (To be honest, that can get quite annoying and I think the people who do shove it to the forefront are part of why you may be embarrassed about it) There are degrees between overt and closeted. If someone finds out and brings it up, you can just reply "Oh, yeah. Good show, actually. A lot of fun" and not help them to make it a big deal.
Sunday, 23-Oct-11 08:16:19 UTC from web-
@scribusmyers A friend of mine is also involved in these hurtful videos, and he watched them. He hasn't told me what's in them because he knows I'll feel really hurt.
Sunday, 23-Oct-11 08:18:50 UTC from web-
@pinhooves He did tell me about the first one though.
Sunday, 23-Oct-11 08:19:59 UTC from web -
@pinhooves I hope you don't take this the wrong way, but I'm actually a bit surprised that you made it to 19 without dealing with people saying mean things.
Sunday, 23-Oct-11 08:23:17 UTC from web-
@scribusmyers I could send you a private message, but I don't feel very comfortable saying it.
Sunday, 23-Oct-11 08:27:02 UTC from web-
@pinhooves It's nothing bad to say, but I just know if I should say it.
Sunday, 23-Oct-11 08:28:16 UTC from web -
@pinhooves If you don't feel comfortable, I won't push you. I guess having had a gun pointed at me at 17 put me in a different mindset. :p
Sunday, 23-Oct-11 08:29:06 UTC from web-
@scribusmyers Sent you the private message.
Sunday, 23-Oct-11 08:35:06 UTC from web -
@ponydude2143 @scribusmyers I'm sorry if I wasted your times discussion about this problem of mine.
Sunday, 23-Oct-11 08:38:07 UTC from web-
@pinhooves Don't be so modest; anypony and everypony here is glad to see you through this kind of trouble and help however they can >3

@scribusmyers You helped trying to make me feel better about the situation. It has made me realize this problem is a bit ridiculous, so I do feel a bit better about it.

@scribusmyers I hope you're alright with what I said in that private message...

@pinhooves You should just relax about that. It's not that there's any privacy in internet anymore. If the guy is taking things from your arents facebook, it means you're already in the internet. He can't do anything about you just by showing things that are already in plain sight.
Sunday, 23-Oct-11 08:05:39 UTC from web-
@nerthos No one knows about my parents facebook accounts. Only family and friends have seen them. He's a creepy stalker and somehow found out about the accounts.
Sunday, 23-Oct-11 08:07:13 UTC from web-
@pinhooves Then go to the police. If he's stalking you, he can go to jail, and as soon as he gets an officer knocking in his door, he will stop.
Sunday, 23-Oct-11 08:08:59 UTC from web-
@nerthos I can't call the police if he lives in Florida and I live in BC Canada.
Sunday, 23-Oct-11 08:13:27 UTC from web-
@pinhooves You have a point. Still, if you're worried he'll reveal you're a bronie, do you honestly think your family and friends will listen to a creepy guy from another country? It's as logic as listening to a drunk hobo.
Sunday, 23-Oct-11 08:15:07 UTC from web-
@nerthos Technically, he's a racist satanist pothead. He has a few friends, and I know one of them. He would tell everyone he knows.
Sunday, 23-Oct-11 08:16:35 UTC from web-
@pinhooves Then you can be sure you can outweight anything he says about you easily.

@hoit21 A lot of ponies have flagged his videos, but I don't know if it's working or not.

@ponydude2143 @wishingwell I've reported the user, and got a lot of users to report the videos for harassment. I don't think it's working.
Sunday, 23-Oct-11 07:39:55 UTC from web-
@pinhooves I received a "Thanks for flagging" e-mail from YouTube. Not sure if that means anything significant or not, but it happened.

@ponydude2143 Problem is, I don't know how to contact them.
Sunday, 23-Oct-11 07:43:22 UTC from web -
@ponydude2143 I looked it through, but none of the options seem to apply to cyber bullying. Is there one I should choose anyways?
Sunday, 23-Oct-11 07:46:05 UTC from web -
@ponydude2143 I've already reported the user with the "Help and Safety Tool" section. Nothing has happened.
Sunday, 23-Oct-11 07:49:57 UTC from web -
@ponydude2143 Anything to take him down, please. :(
Sunday, 23-Oct-11 07:55:44 UTC from web -
@ponydude2143 Actually that could work. We could easily destroy his life. *Trollestia's grin*
Sunday, 23-Oct-11 07:56:18 UTC from web -
@ponydude2143 I could send you a private message if you want. I really don't feel comfortable posting the username here.
Sunday, 23-Oct-11 07:58:10 UTC from web -
@ponydude2143 Sent you the private message. Check your inbox.
Sunday, 23-Oct-11 08:04:57 UTC from web -
@ponydude2143 I had thought that might be possible. Still, I also just didn't want to watch it - it really looked mind-numbingly bad on its own objective merits (or lack thereof).
Sunday, 23-Oct-11 08:08:05 UTC from web -
@ponydude2143 They're animations. It's not just "that" one.
Sunday, 23-Oct-11 08:12:50 UTC from web -
@ponydude2143 I don't know. I didn't watch any of them. All I know is that there are multiple videos about me. He's a complete jerk, so might as well flag all the videos for harassment.
Sunday, 23-Oct-11 08:15:09 UTC from web -
@ponydude2143 Normally, I would ignore this problem and go on, but this is the first time I've been cyber bullied. Not to mention, he's going through personal property just to make me look bad. I know this sounds ridiculous, but I'm a very sensitive person.
Sunday, 23-Oct-11 08:23:18 UTC from web-
@pinhooves Well, it's not far from normal bullying, besides the fact that he can't harm you.

@ponydude2143 Uh... There was a "bullying" sub-option under one of the choices... I don't recall what it was, though...
Sunday, 23-Oct-11 08:25:00 UTC from web -
@ponydude2143 Not sure, TBH. You should be able to putter around selecting things before hitting the actual "send" button.
