Pose as some other people that say someone is posing as you, that's it's not you and then hopefully people will be like oh ok. You know, try to negate the rumors and stuff.

Well, i already have people mad at me thinking im saying this stuff.
Yes, Shaler it is.
Threaten them with what? What laws is this breaking? Where can i read more about these?
I think you can hand them a subpoena asking them for the identity of the people who are defaming you. Same thing that ASCAP does to universities to combat illegal file sharing. I have no doubt this requires a lawyer.
I wouldn't ignore the problem; suppose the people who were defamed pressed civil charges against you for supposedly defaming them? And this is highly improbable, but suppose one of the people "you" supposedly talked trash about was crazy enough to physically come after you?
And the website would probably tell you to shove it and feed you BS that they have no control over the content unless you do it through a lawyer, then they will cough up the IP addresses double fast. Know any friends of your folks or your friends' parents who are lawyers?

If I had an account there I'd spam it with nudes.
Have you ever considered spamming it with nudes?
I never new there were so many "fake" people.

eah, i dont know any lawyers, no. i dont know many adults really, so its kind of tough. i agree to the fact that i should not ignore it. this is really dissapointing honestly. I know somebody on talkbass is a lawyer, but i honestly cant remember who. Is it TomBowlus?
Strait up computer crime people can find this guy... I'm not sure how the laws work in Pittsburgh but in Canada impersonation is a crime and so is libel. Consulting a lawyer is definitely a good idea (up here a lawyer will give you a free consultation and I imagine lawyers do similar down there). I would also consider contacting the authorities.
I messaged tommy, im sure he will at least point me in the right direction for this. Thank you.
Wait, you're saying that highschoolers, when given an audience and anonymity, are douche bags?
:scowl:
:scowl:
Does anybody actually read the rubbish and take it seriously on a site like that?
It's not significant enough to involve a lawyer IMO.
You don't need to register to post so you could fill it up with spam if you wanted to....
Although I will tell you this..... Whoever is posting all the negative gossip about you will tell his friends and it will come to you through the grapevine. As soon as you know the grapevine will tell him that you know. That's all you have to do.
Then, when he knows that you know he will have to worry about what you could do knowing that it was him.
You keep the moral high ground and the "poison pen" has to deal with the karma....

Gave me a chuckle. Just roll with punches and laugh it off, then people will realise it isn't you. Does anyone honestly take it seriously?
Did u alrdy contact the admin coz of that? I'm sure he can block the user and he'll do if he's a nice guy.
