And a semantic point - a troll is someone who wants to trigger an angry reaction and gain engagement. I want precisely the opposite. I want to suppress engagement. I want silence. I guess that would make me a heckler.
In another context I might would have more sympathy for you and the other users, but frankly I really don't.
On most forums where Peter decides to post, the local users are quite quick to see through Peter's bullshit and call him out on it. That's why he's banned from so many, and shunned or ignored on more.
On this forum, not only did no-one challenge his clearly sociopathic behaviour (and you really don't have to try that hard to read between the lines of his own posts to see that by his own admission Peter has been harassing, abusing, stalking people for years - but apparently they were asking for it, so that's OK), but here, uniquely, you actively offered him support and encouragement to continue in this behaviour.
When he shared a video of his own lawyer telling him that he was extremely lucky not to be in jail having - and I quote - "harassed the fuck out of these women" you encouraged him to continue harassing them.
When he shared videos saying he intended to attack police with a claw hammer (having previously shared videos saying he wanted to bomb the police station, and shoot police with a rifle) you went off on your own rant about the police.
If at any point you had actually behaved like decent human beings I wouldn't ever have have felt the need to post here at all, and certainly not in such an extreme way. He has made so many people's lives such utter misery and caused so much harm and pain and suffering in the world and you pat him on the back and tell him to keep on trying.
You gave refuge to a monster, and hey, guess what, the villagers have turned up, and they're pissed off, so best keep out of the way, eh?
And just to be clear here, this isn't about Peter having strong opinions on Resident Evil or some harshly worded forum posts. This isn't as he repeatedly states, and may even believe, anything to do with defunct gaming websites. This is about the type of monster on the internet mothers warn their children of. He has engaged in constant slander, sexual harassment, stalking - online, in their place of work, by phone, and in the real physical world - harassing their friends, their families, their employers, and sending people threats of violence and death threats. He is a misogynist and a racist and dangerously deluded. He has been arrested and sent to prison repeatedly for this shit and yet every time he's released he starts again. The only reason he isn't more dangerous is his sheer stupidity and incompetence, but he seems to sometimes be able to persuade other gullible people to act on his behalf. Some of these women have been enduring this for nearly two decades now, so if you're a bit sad by having to see some swear words in your peripheral vision on a website, for a few weeks well, boo-fucking-hoo, my heart fucking bleeds.
My objective isn't even to get Peter to stop posting entirely. I don't think that's healthy - especially as he has no other outlet, having alienated literally everyone else he's ever had contact with.
If he wants to come on here and whine about computer games, or his family, or other stuff I frankly don't give two shits, and I will leave you all alone. I have no desire to poke the bear. But that's not what he's doing. He's been using this forum, completely unchallenged, as a tool to harass other people - and that has to stop. Whether that be direct or oblique references to his former support workers, filmmakers, random people on the internet, or this mythical supposedly Australian guy he has beef with, and whether that's direct attacks here, linking from here to attacks hosted on other sites, or trying to coerce people here to swat his victims I don't distinguish - any of that will trigger a response here from me.
If he steers clear of that, I will leave you all alone.
If you want to add me to your blocklist go right ahead - I nether seek nor want your attention.
And honestly, if me calling him out drives new users away from this forum then that's maybe not such a bad thing, because as far as I can tell, this forum appears to me not a healthy place for anyone to be.
