What is an Internet stalker?
At its mildest, a stalker is simply a troll that has attached itself to an individual. At worst, boring, at best, flattering. But a stalker can be a serious predator, using the Internet to pursue a real or imagined vendetta, or other perverted agenda. Risk assessment is an essential first step.
How dangerous is it?
Start by thinking about who it is; is it someone you have simply upset on the Internet, someone with whom you've had a relationship? Is it someone you knew before, or have met in the real world?
Think about where you see it - newsgroups? forums? chat rooms? email?
What does it say? Is it a matter of direct insults? Is it lies and rumors? Does it reveal information not generally known that you want kept secret?
When - and how often - does it appear?
How is it threatening? Is it simply annoying, or do you fear direct contact, betrayal or what? Think about the worst it can do ... how bad is that?
Why are you being stalked - is it simply spite and boredom, is it envy or resentment? Have you done anytghing thast you think may have set it off?
Once you can answer these questions, you will havce a clearer idea of what you are dealing with, and how quickly you may need to act.

QID here is very important,it's not advisable to just give it to anyone even to the admin..
Drsam when administrators aren't professionals but gossipmongrers then that info is shared with their friends who share it with their friends and so on..You are thinking this site is run by professionals.
In that case,i wont be here..:)
the personal info will not be posted in the profile! just to the administrators.
DRsam - Not a good idea.I dont want my stalker to tell the CID what im up to..:p
big deal huh!
eh what?
new IDs can be limited to one ID per Week
Drsam...thats not a good idea...I dont want the whole world to know about my details...:)
drsam in 24 hours your personal info will be all over the internet if you provide those details. How reliable do you think this site is?
he he that would be more dangerous. How reliable do you think the site is?Would you be will ing to give too much of your personal info here?
what's so hard in providing ID number, photo and/or even mobile number when applying for membership in QL? everybody will behave than.
FS - Agree,some are just born jealous and with low self esteem. No wonder why some people live in a virtual world..:(
almost everyone here is quite lifeless... but that specific troll is hilarious.
TB - seems you are also a mod like Rizks :)
he will still come back. since they are giving him more ammunition to his rage. it may consume him and some others as well. I would say be careful.....
Some people are born jealous... jobless….with very low self esteem and good for nothing….they are the ones who transform into stalkers an trolls..
there you go. any reason for him getting ooopsed? yes - the mods dont like him. Any other reason - no
Ah he disappeared.. get ready for 100 more ooooopssss threads..lol
illegal operation of website?
Stalkers are dangerous. We'll never have any idea how far they can go esp.if we dont know their motives..:(
There is nothing illegal about this website
gulshan grover nobody needs an office to run a website.
This has been there since the beginning - either serious or in jest.
the same reason will be given by the stalkers as well.In now way do I condone these acts, it is not at all good in the long run. Moreover remember Doha is a small place so you are treading a fine line here.
There is difference between insulting & threatening others. I see many people threatening each other here, that is a crime..
s_isale we have no stake in a free to join website. if the owners here want to support their friends in abusing & insulting others then there is nothing you can do about it.
FS, one needs to look at how the mods have been selective in theirimplementation of the various guidelines. You suffer for your actions....
I have a stalker here..:) A paparazzi maybe..:p
If someone repeatedly abuses or threatens you on the internet, report to the police. It is a punishable offence. Report them to cyber crime centre which is under CID.Website owners have the IP addresses to track them down which they can be forced to give once complaint is filed.One guy punished will deter hundreds of trolls.
I thought its Rizks
