Exclamation => NEED YOUR HELP . Important <=

Hi Guys,

I am making this post as we need some important help from the DIBB members.

We have someone that keeps signing up to our site and making posts that have us concerned to the point where we are not in a position to deal with them legally and have got to the point where we will need to pass on tracking data to the relevant authorities.

The help that we need from you guys is that we ask you not to make any posts or reply to any posts where the post content refers to children in their knickers, skirts or smacking of children.

We have a user that keeps signing up on the DIBB with different identities, they make a few what would be classed as normal posts then shortly afterwards they make a post that involves children, specifically school girls and referring to either their knickers/pants or bottom.

You may have seen some of these posts and may even have replied thinking the posts were genuine.

Some of the posts have been about this users daughter having to do PE at school in their knickers. or wetting their knickers on a plane. A post yesterday was asking how to punish a school child whilst on holiday, the post mentioned smacking on the bottom, they even said "not abuse, just enough to hurt". A post this morning was about short skirts in the parks and how to prevent flashing!

Now we get idiots and sad users on the DIBB from time to time that get enjoyment out of winding other people up, that is all part and parcel of running an online forum, it's nothing new and we have been dealing with these types of people for over 20 years.

However this particular user has us concerned due to their seemingly unhealthy obsession with schoolgirls in their knickers. It could be someone with a mental issue that doesn't really know any different but it could also have sexual connotations such as a Paedophile (not a word or topic I'd ever thought I would be typing on this holiday planning site).

So again, please do not reply to or make similar posts.

It would be helpful if you see them to report them by clicking the red triangle at the bottom left of the post. By doing this it allows us to capture details about the user. Not everyone realises that email accounts, IP addresses and electronic signatures from individual computers/devices are traceable by the authorities.

I'm sure this post will have fed the troll 'so to speak' but it is potentially too serious to ignore and to deal with internally any longer.

Thank you.

Is there any pattern to the username that they sign up to help or are they totally random? - I've found on other sites that you can usually spot them when they return as they have a similar format

I saw that one yesterday and had my suspicions. It’s part of a much bigger problem. From memory there are identical posts across other forums, i know I read the same one on a different site.

That's a word I never thought I'd see on this site either. I know as a community we don't all agree on everything and what is "funny" to some is not funny in the slightest to others, but there are lines and boundaries - and the poster you are talking about has gone so far beyond that line.

Hope you get it sorted, it most definitely isn't what we want on this forum.

Thanks for doing he thankless task of keeping it decent in here.

Thanks for the warning. I've just seen another post from them in the Forum Spy feed, but you've already dealt with it

Sorry to hear this is an issue Stu. Thank you for the warning.

If an issue across different forums then is a collaborative approach warranted?
