Only a child would be fooled by this email

It’s clearly someone trying to save their favorite account with a majority of progress or expensive items.

The mom is 35 according to her Facebook account. You think someone that old would type like this?

DA:
How old is the child, because if they made the accounts a few years ago, then they should be what, 15, 18 by now? So how old was the mother when she had the little rulebreaker? I am somewhat uncomfortable with some potential timelines...

... You have a good point. The timeline has the earliest accounts being created in a 2014 window.(8 years ago.) The mother is my age.

That would put her at around 27 at the time of creation of the kid's accounts, and having a 13 year old puts having the kid at 14 unless the original accounts were made underage... Which is an instant ban for the law anyways.

I think they may have told too complicated a tale.

lmao should have picked better numbers

The writing in these is atrocious. I don't think a 35 year old would write like this

I shouldn't have to mention this if y'all read the rules, but I am a bit disappointed that y'all are digging to find folks' facebook accounts.

If I see screencaps or anything linking to it, I will nuke this whole thread.

(I'm already squinting at it because the CC'ed email wasn't censored and now Vasemod and I are discussing if we SHOULD nuke it or not because of this)

I'm not digging to find anyone's facebook account. She posted this under her Facebook account

...

Seriously?

So you were already friends with her on fb?

[We have SMR (stupidly/ignorantly) saying folks on ARR are using IPs to stalk people and this doesn't look good lol]

Why would you need an IP to stalk people when half of FR has their twitter/instagram/reddit/tumblr linked right in their profiles

Nuking the thread w/ a repost that has the censored screenshots seems fine to me if you dislike that part but I do think coming in guns-blazing to act like doxxing is going on based on what the replyguys on SMR are crying about is weird. We all know they don't know shit about site security or ARR for that matter. Why base your moderation around their misunderstandings?

I think Mindless is deliberately trying to prove that we're not the terrifying hackers some dipshits are painting us as. :|

Deleting this like that would do more harm than good, if it truly is just the moron posting this on Facebook in an FR group.

Bingo.

If she posted it publicly where other FR folks can see it, then the onus is on her.

I was just trying to find out where exactly the info came from. Thanks for the clarification- it stays up because it ain't our problem as long as our rules are followed.

To be honest I had also wondered how the images were found. I sort of thought that the original poster may have been the 'mom' and was looking for sympathy or something.

AYRT
Verifying the info makes sense to me but the first thing they chimed in with was this:
"I shouldn't have to mention this if y'all read the rules, but I am a bit disappointed that y'all are digging to find folks' facebook accounts." It was already an accusation and then the context added after was "SMR says we're doxxing" I just don't really get that energy lmao. I'm not trying to be Pro-Doxx here or something just like, why be convinced the comm is doxxing based on what SMR says when they could have just asked. Basically just think its stupid to have SMR attitudes bleed into here when we all squat here to avoid that kind of crybaby shit.

Damn you need a snickers

Dreamwidth has a ToS, too, and I don't want this comm shut down for allegations of doxxing.

It's a drama comm, not kiwifarms.

Reiterating that I'm not "Pro Doxxing" If you think its a violation then you can take it down, I wasn't arguing that to begin with. But you didn't come at it to verify the info you came at it accusing posters of doxxing and saying you were "disappointed" in them for it. The only reason it got verified was because the poster defended themselves against your accusation. There wasn't even a question in your first comment. That attitude is just unwarranted and apparently, according to your reply, motivated by the accusations made on SMR. I just think it was unnecessary to let SMR bitching bleed into how you came at posters on here before even verifying whether or not what SMR was accusing us of was even happening.

I get why you would take it down if they were trying to start shit but why blame the commenters for it when it was SMR to begin with. That's all I'm saying. It wasn't justified and it was SMR influencing the vibes here and I just think that's dumb.

That is my bad for blaming commenters, because it has happened before.

Vasemod and I have deleted comments including screenshots about folks' kids, their facebooks, hell, even a LINKEDIN page.

I assumed the worst because of past history, and I do apologize for that.

SMR isn't really influencing the vibes- I am just covering my ass because SMR folks literally are the worst combination of dumb, ignorant and petty.

Ok that is more reasonable. The SMR mention threw me off, but its not like its bad to be careful about this shit. Thanks for the level headed reply.

I just want to say that thank you mods for verifying and making sure that the stuff here pertains to rules, and clarifying when needed so. It’s a headache to see commenters on SMR immediately jump to conclusions without checking whatsoever because they’re freaking ignorant.

way too many misunderstandings between users have happened because there was no proper clarification / communication gone awry.

Thanks for the confirmation- I just needed context on how the images were found!
