PROBLEMS/SUGGESTIONS

[enablemeplz]

If anyone crosses the line or there's some other issue or suggestion you want to leave, comment here.

NOTE: I live in PST. On Saturdays I sometimes work day shifts or do things when I'm off, where I don't get home until a pretty reasonable time of 5-6 pm in the evening. If I don't get to the post before I go out, I will make sure I post it when I'm home. If it's a rare day I work evening shift, and don't have time to post it before my shift, the post may go up super late (in which case I don't mind people poking to make sure it's going up.)

I have a recurring entry on google calendar that sends me reminders to do the post. Guaranteeing a set day but a flexible time the post goes up will allow me to reliably post EMP basically forever, regardless of my RL situation. As such, I will no longer be answering "will the post go up?" questions unless it's past 10 PM EST. After that, I'll let people know what's up if I'm running late. (Or act on the reminder if I forgot).

Oh no, yeah, I linked to the bakerstreet report post where the mods there have conducted correspondence wrt problems with that player thus far specifically because it would have been redundant to post a bunch of wankgate links together, and there's verification you can have from the bakerstreet mods that you wouldn't get from anon threads anyhow, though many details are indeed also contained in the anon threads. Due to the harassing nature of the problem player, pastebins and similar records with names attached were given to the bakerstreet mods through private message venues so that the player(s) submitting them wouldn't be further targeted by the harasser. Since it seems like you've already sent PMs in that direction, I won't try to link you anything that the bakerstreet mods likely already have at this time.

Unfortunately, due to the fact that this player has a pattern of putting together brand new journals in order to evade their bans on bakerstreet and continue to tag the players they've harassed, there's no muselist to link to you either because it wouldn't be in that player's interest to keep a public record of the journals they hide behind. However, the bakerstreet mods likely have a comprehensive list of all their previous journals, and this rash of ban evasions has occurred in the last two months or so, with the most recent ban having happened about a week ago.

As I also stated earlier, one or two similar prefs wouldn't be enough to warrant concern normally, but considering how similar pref-wise this ad is to previous ads that this harassing player has definitively posted on emp in the past, it felt sufficient to at least drop you a warning about another potential journal of theirs appearing on your comm. The previously-posting journals in question were

The previously-posting journals in question were <username=pawer> and <user name=snowpiercer>; both of these have been banned from bakerstreet and pawer has been banned from rpanons (at the bottom of this thread: https://rpanons.dreamwidth.org/76870.html?thread=238618182#cmt238618182) after the mods of those respective comms reviewed the deets that the bakerstreet mods are currently privy to. Here's links to their previous ads on this comm:

Considering the newness of this journal and the sparsity of info concerning who the player behind it is, regardless of the similar preferences, I still wouldn't blame you for not banning the journal at this time; that'd be perfectly understandable. Since the problem player has posted here before, though, it felt best to give you a heads-up and some venues to the relevant information wrt the bakerstreet mods, so that you'll be able to take action more easily if this player is definitively confirmed to show up here in the future.

Honestly, sorry for the hassle. But thank you for taking the time to look into this, either way.

I've reached out to the player and they admitted they were the same person. I've looked over what I could find and am just waiting on the bs mods to respond before making a final decision.

Don't worry about the hassle. It's tough wading through wg messes for deets, but I don't want the meme to be used by anyone acting in a predatory manner. So the heads up to look into it is appreciated.

I'll respond here again when I have more info/a decision to keep you updated.
