Is anyone else really paranoid of online retards harassing you?I don't do anything noticeable like draw fetish or anything but I've seen people harassed for lessI'm on the spectrum and I live in fear of saying the wrong thing online and being stalked and lolcow milked
>>82876593Less harassing me, more just embarrassing myself. You have to stand out in some way for them to really want to catalogue or pay attention to you and if you just stop posting/disappear then they'll move onto someone else though. If you don't stand out and people are harassing you, it's likely because they knew you before and are doing so because of that.>I'm on the spectrum and I live in fear Yes, that's the theme of this board.
>be assburger fag>act retarded online>learn not toit's that shrimple
>>82876593Lolcows do not exist, stalker. Only your psychopathy. Enjoy prison.
>>82876656And this is why your life is already over, stalker. No, I will not go to prison. Yes, lolcows exist.
>>82876677Oh but sweet little infant baby child, they don't. The only thing that exists is the 8x6 cell, and you will be staying there for the rest of your life for your crimes against my family. Enjoy.
craziest thing about that site, is that most of the users are former members of a "targeted" fandom and have been harassed themselves. like a bullied kid trying to join in on the bullying of other kids to make his own bullying stop. like some kind of cult
>>82876593>I live in fear of saying the wrong thing online and being stalked and lolcow milkedDon't maintain an online presence that can all be connected to each other or your real identity?
yes. i am. but sometimes i think about all the ridiculous retard i've seen, on- and offline, forgotten and in the public eye, and i feel that it doesn't really matter. they're a a niche curiosity and one of tens of thousands (or probably millions). they're barely here now and soon they'll be gone. once i posted my face in a rate thread on /soc/, and another couple times i posted my voice in vocaroos threads on here, and that seemingly helped a lot in easing my fear and anxiety. once, i could barely manage an anonymous post in a general on an active board, i was so anxious about not presenting myself in a way they couldn't identify or mock. i tried an online clan-centered game but couldn't manage that though, so it's still fairly crippling, and it's worse when i'm actually around actual people.>>82876620yeah, this. i suppose i've also learnt that life/the world is not a movie, and i'm not an actor on a stage, holding the crowd enraptured and with the implications of my every move analyzed for years. but that's becoming less true by the day.>>82876738kind of impossible if you participate in society in even a minimal way. i guess it would depend on where you live and what to do.
>>82876819>kind of impossible if you participate in society in even a minimal way.nonsense. you haven't even tried. i can talk all i want but keep personal shit out the picture. veeery simple.
>>82876819>kind of impossible if you participate in society in even a minimal way. i guess it would depend on where you live and what to do.It's really not that hard to keep your internet life and your personal/work life completely separate. I have separate Discord accounts I use for IRLs and online friends. I have separate accounts for basically everything, and all of the accounts for the online persona have different usernames that can't be connected. See /psg/ on /g/.
>>82876593Saying one thing online won't turn you into a lolcow. You have to constantly embarrass yourself, and more importantly, you have to play into the harassment. If you don't engage, it's not fun for them. Also, lolcows are generally the type of people who can form a cult of personality. If you're not that type of person, you're good.
>>82876697God I love Rick posting.>>82876819> i've also learnt that life/the world is not a movie, and i'm not an actor on a stage, holding the crowd enraptured and with the implications of my every move analyzed for years. but that's becoming less true by the day.In my experience people who were bullied, mocked and ostracized a lot as a kid just overanalyze themselves. Ask me how I know. It's hard to avoid.
>>82876593Why do you continuously make threads about these dudes?
>>82876846>>82876865all socials require you to signpost your real identity, and various socials are required for group work in uni and also for many jobs. any way i go about it there will be more than enough data for them to create a profile on me. using the same devices is probably an issue too. usernames are actually nothing. sure, all profiles i've ever made on anything are blank and i've no overt links to my real identity where it's not required, but i'm convinced there's still more than enough for someone dedicated or with resources to tie all my activity together. especially now with ai.
>>82876912i'm being estalked, not by kiwifarms though. there's nothing i can really do. i don't think my stuff will be posted online but there is a discord that is absolutely obsessed with me. don't get angry online, don't argue. that's my advice.
a like a duh somebodey
>>82876912>using the same devices is probably an issue too. usernames are actually nothing.This doesn't matter for your threat model. It doesn't matter if Google or whatever company knows it's the same person making accounts. Your threat model would be random people using basic OSINT tools which using different usernames and emails covers.
>>82876871This is NOT true. All it takes is one idiot getting obsessed with you enough to start stalking you and decide he needs to convince one of those "lolcow" forums into thinking you're a trainwreck. Sometimes they will just straight up make things up about you as well
>>82876953i guess you're right. i think i projected some of my own unrelated concerns in this question, and my ignorance of this stuff also means i tend to exaggerate the risks and threats out of fear.
>>82876964You've definitely never been on one of those forums. The kinds of people who try to get a personal army on them end up as the target of ridicule. If you're not interesting, they don't care. If you act like a stalker freak who's cataloguing everything some random nobody does and then you try to make a post about it in those kinds of places then you're interesting.
>>82876986Anyone can make anyone sound like a lolcow if they aren't the blandest cut-and-paste normie ever, and even then, they can just lie or fabricate texts/screenshots, etc.
>>82877065Sure, you could make just about anybody -sound- like a lolcow to maybe a normie. But to people who actually peruse lolcows on the internet? No, not really.>and even then, they can just lie or fabricate texts/screenshots, etc.They'd just dig a deeper hole for them when someone inevitably contacts the supposed lolcow and they show evidence that they didn't say or do any of those things.
>>82876593you must be pretty narcissistic to believe that people would want to randomly stalk someone like you.
>>82876964>>82877065Retard. Why do you lie like this? Do you really think that anyone cares about random autists?
>>82877080>No you don't get it, I'm a freakin lolcow expert, I can't be fooledAlright man
>>82876593I have no social media. I'm not part of any communities. I only post on 4chan. My online presence is practically non-existent and is surely not interesting. Josh wouldn't waste bandwidth hosting a thread about me
>>82877097Not OP, I'm being stalked and I have literally never done anything more noticeable than consuming oxygen. Stalkers are mentally ill retards, they don't seek people of "value", they just fixate on people for irrational reasons.
>>82877116He will if you give him silver or cheese.
>>82877097I once had someone stalk me because, no joke, someone followed me on social media, who in turn was followed by someone else, who in turn was followed by yet another person who this stalker hated. People couldn't quite believe me when I told them this but I discovered this was his actual motive for fucking with me.
>>82877121So you're delusional too! Sounds like you deserve it lmao. Why do they say they're stalking you? Might help you understand them more... clearly you don't see it in yourself lmao.
I was a good candidate for being a lolcow but I did the sensible thing and stopped updating my social media for like a month and now no one cares about me.
>>82877144>So you're delusional too!Nope, I'm literally being sent threats and love letters from a schizo.>Why do they say they're stalking you?Being in love and butthurt over it. There's nothing exciting or novel about it. It's just annoying and there's like a 5% chance I might get caught off guard and stabbed.
>>82877144>Least obvious kiwi farms obsessive stalkerfagLmao kill yourself faggot, go back
>>82877159Oh you're a foid. Is an ugly man liking you 'stalking' now?
>>82877246No, I'm a man and a woman is stalking me.
>>82876593It's not paranoia. It takes surprisingly little to trigger this, and it is surprisingly easy to carry out with all the info those creepy people search sites put out combined with all the leaked data out there that everyone, from private investigators doing cheating spouse investigations to garden variety discord trannies, has access to.
>>82877272woman or a 'woman'?
