Looks like Aduh (Afeena) was also banned. What'd she do? Check your pm.

It wasn't a pic that I have ever used.. Actually I don't think that it was an actual pic, at all.. but a still from a YouTube video. Then my question would be how did he know that was you? I was doxxed on the other board... My real name and Facebook account has been known for awhile... It's on my Facebook page. I did link the video, on the other board, a while back.. before I knew how much idle time some of my cohorts had on their hands. Edit: I'm not that ashamed of myself... as that is a real pic of me in my ID.. and I'm not really one to back down or run from a wannabe bully... especially, an internet one.

He had revealed your name and fb account. We have banned more than 20 accounts of Ben and made sure that that person is not allowed here even through proxy IPs. I hope you like that.

He linked to someone's FB real life account . Previously he had revealed another person's (Ben's) real life name and address . For that we had received warnings from pro-boards.

I did link the video, on the other board.. This is where the gray area seeps in. If you willingly give out something like a photo or video of yourself, is it fair to admonish someone for posting it somewhere else? I have revealed my real name on this board. Would it be considered doxxing if someone else were to reveal it on another board? After all, it isn't as if I gave it to someone confidentially.

I'd suggest making it explicit what somebody is banned for. Ok, cupcakes ... I'm going to try it your way: Superdude has been banned for doxxing. Any questions? Yes: What is "doxxing?"

Would it be considered doxxing if someone else were to reveal it on another board? After all, it isn't as if I gave it to someone confidentially. To me... It's not really all that gray of an area. It is pretty obvious when somebody is trying to be a prick with somebody else's pic. I would think that it would be best if no one mentioned real names.... especially, if it is obvious that one doesn't want it repeated. If somebody was constantly bringing up your real name and information.. against your wishes... I'd hope that something would be done on your behalf. Personal names and images are generally protected from misuse in most areas of life. I hope that this would be the case on this board... It seems that it is... and for that, Thanks.

It is pretty obvious when somebody is trying to be a prick with somebody else's pic. Ok, but the question is whether or not it warrants administrative action. If it depends on this or that, then it most certainly is a matter of discretion to be taken on a case-by-case basis. That's what I call a gray area. Isn't that a bit like wanting a bell to be unrung? If I didn't want my real name known, I wouldn't have posted it in public for all the world to see. Yes, I agree, but at what point is it considered to be misuse? Or better yet, doxxing? In Superdude's case, he was revealing the name and location of a member here. That much is clear. What I don't know, however, is how he acquired that information to begin with. Did Blade openly post it somewhere else then suddenly decide he didn't want it to be posted by anyone else? Was it a personal issue with Superdude in that it would have been okay if someone else did it? Does it even matter because doxxing is doxxing and there's no gray area after all?

Thanks. Never heard of that expression before. Never liked Superdude back on IMDB.

A couple of questions.
Is Awhina actually banned now I thought she was in a time out until April 4th Has Supe actually been banned or is he in a time out? Is what he does doxxing when the people he is raging against actually gave the information themselves? And it is very easy to keep yourself fairly anonymous if you are careful with settings etc. On IMDb Ada gave out names, IP addresses, very personal information and then was shocked when we would remind her of it. Is this the same thing?
I understand the rules and fair enough. Just questions.

Only one rhetorical one: why am I not in the least bit surprised by this?

And it is very easy to keep yourself fairly anonymous if you are careful with settings etc. Doxxing doesn't stop being doxxing just because ones victim was more careless with their profile settings than they should have been, or made some careless remark in the past which gave away more than they intended. You can't do anything to stop some malevolent half wit from taking advantage of this by digging into their profile and finding out personal information about them, but as soon as he posts that information on a public message board without their consent, his sorry arse should get banned asap, and rightly so!

That's MY question! Here's another one... Is it doxxing when the information being "doxxed" is incorrect? Should attempted doxxing be treated the same as successful doxxing?

Is this the same thing? I understand the rules and fair enough. Just questions. This was my thought exactly. What he was posting was from public message boards that Ada had published publicly herself. They were reminders of the lies which ironically she was banned for and because of her exposure it seems Suoerdude has been banned for!! The board is fast becoming farcical, and frankly I'm getting fed up with it.
