ApologyI was banned from posting here for a week, and rightfully so, as I was guilty of posting personal information about a poster that I researched on my own, and I’m sorry for doing so. It was totally obviously my fault, and I feel bad for doing so.
I didn’t really know about this policy, which is not really an excuse, as it would seem to be common sense.
One reason I was taken by surprise about this policy is because in the past, maybe 5 or so years ago, someone, who rhymes with DC, had posted information about my name, where I live, although not my exact address and where and what he thought I did at work, although I was guilty of correcting this poster of my occupation. At one point, I actually stopped posting here for about a year, as I was truly worried about my personal safety.
In fact, someone or someones who posts here, had mailed my ‘ex’ wife a letter to her workplace, stating that there were a few posters here, who were worried about my saneness and that they wanted her to know how unstable they thought I was and to look into it. I’m not making this up, it was truly an unsettling experience! She was rightfully pretty shaken and couldn’t even read the letter as she asked some of her colleagues to do so, and their response was they thought it was a bunch of BS., that they couldn’t see any reason for the accusations of the letter. Again, my safety and my families safety were on my mind.
I had complained to the then owners of Stockhouse about the previous issue and this last form of harassment, and they did nothing.
I should have know better, especially with the knowledge of how it effected me personally.
So, to the poster I did this to, I apologize.
