This is a real "Everyone Sucks Here" moment between Steex, Arcanedom, and Rhea. How did Steex not get an IP ban from FR for stalking, given that the Slack stalking was directly tied to FR?
nayrt but you're so right how is this person not ip-banned for genuinely stalking someone. even worse too their victim still plays, how unnerving must that be for them. sometimes I think FR staff takes "it happened off of FR so its not in our jurisdiction" too far
Yeahhh I mean if the victim didn't approach FR with the report then maybe staff couldn't do anything with the offsite stuff. I don't imagine that it was easy being like hey so all this offsite drama about the website yeah I'm being stalked about it. Especially back then it was a bit contentious with staff people were worried that if they were implied a part of this whole thing that staff would ban then for suspected multi-ing. I do think FR staff hold their hands up a lot going "not my circus we can't prove it" mostly so they don't have to litigate rumors? Because I imagine that'd be a nightmare.
So from what I understood since Steex was banned from multi-accounting their FR accounts were gotten- but the Slack account wasn't found till Light went to Slack directly like hey so there's someone who's stalking one of our team (slacks are "teams") can you help us here's what we know. Slack immediately took action, which go Slack tbh, 10 years ago on the internet stalking felt really tongue in cheek "oh I have a ~facebook stalker~"/"I ~stalk~ this person" used to be sort of a joke.
Rhea was living for the drama she made replied to and reblogged so much garbage back then I'm so glad that her blog isn't ruining people's day anymore tbh
