Stalking and harassing and Moviechat's Terms and Conditions.


So I have started Reporting db20db after he/she stated he/she would stalk and harass me on the Moviechat Boards and has been doing just that.

But I have since looked at Moviechat's Terms and Conditions and unless my reading comprehension has slipped a few notches I couldn't see anything in there prohibiting stalking and harassing another User.

So am I wasting my time and the Moderators time by reporting db20db ?


reply

Let’s just be clear here. When you say “they” do you mean more than one user?

reply

No I was using they because I don't know if db20db is male or female. But you're right using "they" was ambiguous so I changed it to he/she.

reply

I've taken a picture of all the people waiting in line to report db20db.

db is allegedly a man, but I think it's best to ignore it. It calls people attention seekers but it is one of the most attention seeking people on this site.

reply

Probably good advice. I seem to have had an over-stimulating effect on db20db with the ongoing arguments we've been having and he seems to have lost his wits.

reply

Years ago he kept coming after me for no reason so I ignored him. But one day I finally decided to respond to him thinking that he'd stop, but he got offended. Now he keeps telling me that I stir the pot and that's how the arguments start.

reply

His modus operandi is usually to leap onto someone out of nowhere and say something confrontational and then it often escalates into a nasty back and forth which he seems to get off on. Peculiar individual.

reply

He's old. I attribute it to brain function loss.

reply

Could be he's entering his "second childhood" phase then.

reply

[deleted]

Yep that's a good one and spot on in this case.

reply

Just the other day you alleged my arguments here are "fake." Now you're contradicting yourself once again.

reply

Who was overstimulated? In your second response to me, you were already into venomous name calling and you kept it up relentlessly throughout the exchange. And why is it ok for you to tell jriley555 that he's "full of shit" but if I use the same expression with you, I get reported for it? Because you're a brazen hypocrite and a thin skinned crybaby who can't handle his own bs being played back on him.

reply

We've been over this maybe a dozen times and yet you insist on repeating this Groundhog Day bullshit. I know you're only doing it to be annoying as part of your trolling and stalking.

As far as jriley555 goes in that exchange he was having a repeated dig at me in a passive aggressive way which I don't like so I let him have it back more directly and succinctly.

You complain about my "venomous name calling" when you are the biggest head-kicker on Moviechat. So I kicked your head back, big deal. If you can't take it then don't dish it out.

As for the rest you are continuing to behave like a butthurt fourteen year old because I called you out on your bullshit and exposed you for the fraud and liar that you are. And the longer you carry on like this the bigger a fool you make of yourself.




reply

Who's butthurt? This thread is not only attention seeking but also pity seeking by a couple of crybaby 'victims' commiserating and propping each other up. You created an entire thread whining about me and I'm the one trolling and stalking? More projection and blatant hypocrisy!🙄

reply

Yawn 🥱

reply

Your bag of tricks: name calling, projecting, hurling trite internet labels & false accusations, twisting, distorting, obfuscating, playing the victim. When someone puts in that much time and effort in trying to discredit me, I know I've scored a bullseye with my perception.😄

reply

Yawn 🥱

reply

Probably the same reaction the Mods had when you reported me.😆

reply

How would you know what reaction the Moderator(s) might have had ? You wouldn't so you're talking out of your arse again as usual. 🥱

reply

And yet you're the one motivated by "suspicion" and try to appear as the human 'lie detector' on the site.🙄

reply

Deflection.

It's not so much that you are a fraud and a liar. Personally I don't care too much about that in itself because you wouldn't be the only one of those at Moviechat. It's that you insist that your obvious lies are actually true and in doing that you raise them to a whole new level.

There is a phrase that goes something like " Pissing in someone's pocket and telling them it's raining ". Well that's what you're doing.



reply

"Lies" plural and never a shred of evidence to support that allegation. I must have lived a much more interesting life than I imagined if my true anecdotes can repeatedly produce such virulent responses from one particularly rabid poster.🙄

reply

And the same old bullshit.

reply

Give it up! You'll never win against me, rabid poster.😆

reply

But you are just spewing out the same discredited garbage over and over again you fool. If that and having the last word are your idea of "winning" it just shows how pathetic you are.

reply

Dude, do you have ANY idea how badly you're coming off here?

reply

Do you have any idea of how high and mighty you consistently come off here, which is badly, sheeple?

reply

I am absolutely convinced I'm coming across as a better person than you!

Who doesn't. Seriously, both of you need to just stop this idiocy. Feuds accomplish nothing but to make both participants look like assholes.

reply

Your self righteous pomposity has always come across as overcompensating. I mean, look at you now, trying to reignite a feud that has basically died down.

reply

Anger management therapy. Look into it.

[Contemptuous dismissive wave of hand]

reply

Yeah, dismissive, when you didn't even need to butt in to begin with and an observation on my part was obviously spot on! 🙄

reply

I'm going to work now. Feel free to scream insults at the empty air... while the mods are watching.

reply

Hey, you're the one that felt a need to draw attention to yourself by reigniting a feud that had basically died down. Who gives a shit where you go, as long as you just stay gone?

reply

It's not both people, it's db.

reply

I actually had a poster start stalking me to various other threads to repeatedly accuse me of "ad hominem" attacks...after THEIR very first post to ME on the board was to accuse me of "hate". -eyeroll-

That they repeatedly refused to acknowledge their hypocrisy/projection/etc (while the entire time referring to themselves as "logical") was all the evidence I needed to understand that any further interaction would simply be a waste of my time, and reminded me of a meme I'd seen used to describe individuals who "debate" in bad faith:

"If a ________ says they want you to back up something you've said with facts, they're lying. They want you to waste your time explaining a position they will neither consider nor accept. If they liked facts, they wouldn't be _______."

reply

"...they repeatedly refused to acknowledge their hypocrisy/projection/etc..."

Thanks for your insightful post. Yes, I've seen quite a bit of "pot-calling-the-kettle-black" activity here over the years. I've had to deal with some outrageous, even preposterous accusations.😉

reply

Whenever I encounter such disingenuous "debate" tactics from posters, I'm reminded of the quote from Joshua in the movie Wargames: "A strange game. The only winning move is not to play." ; )

reply

Entertaining movie; have seen it several times.

reply

It's in the Community Standards.

https://moviechat.org/standards

Prohibited Content:

3. Content that harasses, intimidates or bullies an individual or group of individuals

I don't see that applying in this case. People choose to interact with db20db, and they give as good as they get in those exchanges.

reply

WOW!
A sense of fairness!
Good for you Mod5. Let them fight. Why break up a good cat-fight! These chicks are wild! lol

reply

Thanks for that fair and objective response, M5.😄 I've had a Mod outright shut down a dogpile thread on me before on this board.

reply

Hey, you, I unignored you just to deliver this important message:

This world in mine, better get back and…

Bow Down!!

Learn how to create a coherent post, idiot.

reply

His first language is French.

reply

That's supposed to mean something?

reply

French (français [fʁɑ̃sɛ] or langue française [lɑ̃ɡ fʁɑ̃sɛːz]) is a Romance language of the Indo-European family. It descended from the Vulgar Latin of the Roman Empire, as did all Romance languages. French evolved from Gallo-Romance, the Latin spoken in Gaul, and more specifically in Northern Gaul. Its closest relatives are the other langues d'oïl—languages historically spoken in northern France and in southern Belgium, which French (Francien) largely supplanted. French was also influenced by native Celtic languages of Northern Roman Gaul like Gallia Belgica and by the (Germanic) Frankish language of the post-Roman Frankish invaders. Today, owing to France's past overseas expansion, there are numerous French-based creole languages, most notably Haitian Creole. A French-speaking person or nation may be referred to as Francophone in both English and French.

reply

My maternal grandmother was French, asshole.🙄

reply

Then there's no reason why you should be confused. By the way, in this thread, you called one user an idiot, another a dumbass and now you're calling me an asshole. Once again you fail to see the common factor here is you.

reply

Who says I'm confused, other than you jerk-off? I'm bilingual and can compose coherent sentences here.

reply

You: "I can't be confused because you're the only one claiming I am."

Also you: "a large group of people call me an asshole, but I'll just ignore it because it's not true and they're a sickening clique".

reply

You: "I hate people but will try to rally them behind me against one particular poster."
Also, how many times do I need to correct you on this, but a clique is not a large number of people? But of course it's because you depend heavily on hyperbole.

reply

db20db: "go fuck yourself".

db20db: "you're an attention whore".

db20db: "says the idiot who likes to start fights like you."

db20db: "you know nothing about me, asshole."

db20db: "learn how to spell, retard."

Now comes the irony...

db20db: "I don't like you because you say you don't like people, samonjoes".

reply

You're an absolutely sorry excuse for a man in his supposed physical prime, with your fatty liver problem and having to depend on a walker. When I was your age, I was bedding hot younger women. Just today, I received a gorgeous, beaming smile from a good looking, younger gal at the liquor store.

reply

I relied on a walker from an injury and now don't use one.

When I was your age, I was bedding hot younger women.

Yeah, those ladies from 500BC are total foxes. Weird how you felt the need to talk about the women you allegedly got when no one questioned it or brought it up.

Just today, I received a gorgeous, beaming smile from a good looking, younger gal at the liquor store.

Cool, tell your sister I said hi.

reply

"Now he keeps telling me that I stir the pot and that's how the arguments start." Earlier in this thread. Yeah, isn't that exactly what you just did? If that isn't attention whore bullshit, I don't know what is.🙄

reply

I shared my experience with you with someone. That's not stirring anything.

reply



Again, lying and denying.

reply

You must be referring to the alleged sickening clique.

reply

Back to the dungeon you go!

reply

Fair enough.

reply

Yeah but it's shit like this that brought down the IMDB boards. And nobody reads it but the two pugilists--if that's good or bad for MC I don't know. For now at least it's not a frequent occurrence.

reply

Apparently you read it and felt you had to comment and contribute to the controversy and keep it going.🙄

reply

"Apparently" - - Not! (Have you ever considered that you are just too full of yourself and maybe you should observe more and advocate less?)

reply

I lurk, read and ponder a lot here, which is exactly why dumbass posters like you find me so difficult to deal with.

reply

What book are you currently reading?

reply

Now that this has been clarified by an official source, I have some two cents:

-The verbal exchanges so far that have been demonstrated in this topic between Quasimodo and db20db can more accurately be described as mutual bickering. Yes, they have a habit of getting each other's goats. That doesn't necessarily qualify as harassment from either end.

-The topic of trolling has been brought up before and presents the question: what constitutes to "trolling" anymore? That's a whole separate issue about particular users' posting patterns alternating between explicitly contentious topics and soft-pedaling innocuous ones, both delivered in an increasingly spastic manner that suggests accelerated cravings of gratification and attention.

reply

LMAO...LET HIM HAVE IT DB! NOEMOJI

reply

😄

reply

It's probably just another A.I. created to split humanity. Just ignore it.

reply

Pretty sure I put this person on ignore soon after running into he/she. The name is familiar.
Now that I think about it, this person out-of-nowhere said they had had it with my snarkiness and was very unexpectedly mean about it, so I ironically replied "Well that was pleasant," and this person comes unglued. I told myself to steer clear of this odd poster. Next thing I know I'm getting a reply from this person on some other thread, and I thought if you don't like me, don't follow me. Not like this was talking crap politics, just neutral General Discussions, and I'm getting this aggression.
Nothing wrong with hitting Ignore; it's your friend.

reply

Don't take it personal, you're definitely not the only one here with that experience.

reply

I had forgotten about it until I saw the name/handle and it all started coming back.

reply

😮‍💨

reply

I think with it so easy to put someone on the ignore list, they just let people self police.
