Is there a way to find out who somebody if all you have is there screen name? Somebody has been bothering me, and I think I know who it is, but I’m not absolutely positive, so is there way to find out who they are. I’m not asking about hacking or anything, all I am tryin to find is a name, even just a first name would be helpful? okay thank you!!
April 3, 2003 at 3:36 am #63699Jeff HesterKeymasterNo, but you can report their screen name to [email protected] with a description of how they are harrassing you. You might warn the offending user that if they don’t either a) stop bugging you, or b) reveal who they are, that you’ll report them.

oh, god…i hate it when this happens…my ex-boyfriend did that to me not too long ago…hes such a pain… lol:((hence the EX!! hehehe)ok…anyway…well u can check their profile, it might give a clue to who they are, keep bugging them until u get a first name, ask someone else “who’s so and so”, and if u dont kno the person at all, u can ask them how they got ur sn(that should give u a good idea of who they are/where theyre from). keep in mind it could always be one of ur friends playing a trick on u out of boredom.(happens to me on a regualr basis :))

July 22, 2003 at 9:16 pm #63709djredalertMemberHow about idiots in forums that keep bothering you. Not this forum but another. What’s the best way to deal with that

Why are you taking it up at this forum if they are from another forum?
I’d like to tell everyone about the “Block” button located in the AIM software. Very easy to use!

Uh, I am that guy…LOL (But sadly, it’s true.)
Only thing you can do with trolls if contact an administrator, or ignore them — simple as that.
July 23, 2003 at 7:55 am #63707djredalertMemberthanks dave…….that’s what I’ll do.
“IT’S” gone now but the troll was a friend of the admin. so you can imagine the difficulty…………hopefully it wont rear it’s ugly head again.
good day.
July 23, 2003 at 10:43 pm #63710GizTheStudMemberi just block them, the end
