This morning my message inbox here contained a message from another member, who apparently is unhappy about something she thinks I did. The interesting thing is that the ID was different than the one I have ignored because this woman constantly harasses and attempts to bully me every time I post. The picture is the same person pictured in the ID I ignored. The message is threatening legal action against me and I have no clue what she is upset about. I went in to add to my blog and there she is with her other ID ranting about me attacking her in her personal life. I don't know this person or give a rats behind, but how is this allowed to happen? I reported the post and contacted member services about the threatening message, this morning...no response. WTF????

Send Alex a private message.

agree with above poster this should not be allowed at all.

Good luck

Go to each identity and hit the "report" button. Then, for reason, type exactly why. Do this for each and every one.

Do the same for the private message you were sent, with the "report" button.

We all have differences of opinion but that behavior is completely uncalled for. I've had it happen too in the past so I know how it sucks.

Also, if you don't hear a response within 24 hours, I'd message Alex again. He's very good at watching these boards and doesn't put up with harassing behavior.

I think I know the poster Ms Maui, and if you actually panned her book on Amazon that is why she is angry. LBT should not carry over to other venues

Generally there are 2 or sometimes even 3 sides to a story. If this is genuine abuse then I would report it to Alex. If however it is a case of someone responding to something that you have done then a pm is the correct way to go about it, we don't need to see others washing their dirty laundry on the nboards ( although it does get interesting at times)!

What book?

That's really sad that has to happen, I hope you get it resolved soon.

Alex is really good about resolving this sort of thing...give him a day or two...he'll respond.

a book you reviewed on Amazon and then deleted the review. Cheryl is well and truly unhappy! She is convinced it was you.

I went through all my amazon reviews, I did review a book by a Cheryl *****, honestly had no idea it was her. No offense, but if one publishes a book, it is customary to expect reviews, isn't it. I apologized to her and removed the review. If she had pm'd me to let me know that I had upset her, we could have avoided all this nonsense. She should not have let it get to this point.

There are too many people here with too big of ego's.....I could care less about people's "Cred's" etc,....

This is the Internet...people need to get a life as opposed to making themselves feel important and look to get their ego's stroked.....

I just want to know people's experiences...good and bad...with this surgery so I can live and learn....and enjoy my life....

I also have a few people blocked...these are people who appear to me to be "Know it alls"....with little or no first hand experience.....always ready to tell other people what they should or should not do...what is the right and wrong way......

I just want to know what worked and did not work for other people....

And yes, I have a story to share...but it is my story...not something I THINK should happen.....
