Greetings to all the talented and helpful photographers who gave me so much assistance back when I used to use this forum. I hope all are doing well. I'm sorry I'm not around any more, but another member turned out to be a cyberstalker, and he may have used photos of my innocent baby son to locate my personal website for the purpose of harassment, so I deleted as many of my shots from this site as I could, and I no longer use it.
It looks like he really did find my site, because today in a trash folder designed to filter out abusive comments, I found this, posted on May 26:
Sorry about the language.
The email address provided is Yourawanker@w****r.com, and I traced him to a place called Drakewalls, which is apparently in another place called Cornwall, near Gunnislake, wherever that may be. The IP used is 109.156.63.128. There is a pro photo site associated with this area, but I have no reason to think it's him, since I have been told that Yourawanker is an exceptional photographer, and the pro's shots are not very good.
I don't recall his username here.
Obviously, he lacks the capacity to do my family harm, and he has not really reported anything to anyone, but I thought the mods and other members should be warned about his eccentricity, since most are close to him geographically and, due to differences in the law, are likely less able to protect themselves.
As I said, I no longer use this forum, so I won't be viewing replies or responding. Hope this will be helpful to other people who might unintentionally provoke this person.
