No I'm not digging it up again. Its put to bed and it can stay that way.

Bignev, if it were me, I'd write a firm, assertive but polite email to the site owner / admin and put your point across that way. I wouldnt get into a slanging match or a spat with the admin, if you want them to resolve your problem then you want to keep them on side.

Give them a chance to do something about it and make it clear to them that the onus is on them to resolve the situation. Running off the police or ISP before they've had a reasonable amount of time to sort things isnt the way I'd personally do it. When I get complaints I might take a few hours or a day or two to research the issue and situation and make sure I was well aware of all the facts before I took action.

Then if I got nowhere then I'd go directly to the ISP or the hosting company. Alternatively as suggested just get your other to re-register with a different name and keep the details out of the profile etc etc. I know it sounds like backing down, but sometimes its just better off to do so. Sounds like the site admin isnt going to help you, perhaps they know the other person and it can be difficult to be impartial or neutral.

Have you got any photos of your wife......?

There's always one isn't there ffs.

Story is he's been pm'ing her asking for naked pictures of her, videos of her that sort of thing and trying to get her doing the old talking filth thing. She's been ignoring it blocking him and such like then it became very public on the website through him posting blogs about her.

Let's just say if he lived round the corner from me he would be eating through a straw if at all for some of the things he's saying.

2 types of members on the site paying members who don't seem to get touched for anything (he is one) and non paying members like my fiancee.

It has since transpired that this is not the first time he has done this and for some strange reason has the backing of one of the staff members. Probably because she is the best friend of his wife! Yes I said his wife who is also a member on the site and sitting watching all this happen while having a good old laugh to herself. The staff member even said my mrs deserved it for "having your chest hanging out in your profile picture" trust me - it wasn't.

I'm not letting this go. I am going to give them so much hell they won't know what's hit them. I put a blog up about him 4 days ago and it was removed by the same staff member within 1 hour. He put another disgusting blog on last night at 6.00 and it's still there with the staff members being online ignoring it.

I'm trying the softly softly approach with the admin/owner once more then I might accidentally post the website details and username somewhere for any interested parties to (ab)use.

+1. Amazed that it took 2 pages for someone to mention the obvious

He puts blogs up? Like fictional stories? Surely she can just ignore it. He'll be bored in no time. Besides, it's you who gets to do what you want to her! Let him fantasise all he likes!

not so easy............... i get withdrawal symtoms if i dont log on to the org

At the end of the day your wife should either choose to continue to use the site and potentially be harassed(or whatever), or simply stop using the site. Jeez she could even register as a new user and keep a low profile.

As it seems the admin/mods dont care, then there is very little you can do.

After all, i have to tolerate Hovis' constant sexual advances on this forum!

..but a thousand sheep sleep safe at night. The good/bad balance is restored.

Whoo hoo he's been banned!

It seems good does ocassionally win over evil.

I suppose he could come back on but I somehow don't think he will get away with it again.

Thanks for the comments guys. It's a hard one to solve I suppose but it isn't pretty to sit back and see your loved one go through it when it's not wanted.

My fiancee is on a website and is getting sexually harassed by another member and the admin/owner of the site is doing nothing about it.

I just wondered if there is anywhere to go for reporting such and incident?

Anyone know?

TIA.

Welcome to the wild internet.

Afraid the answer is live with it.

Leave the site and block email coming from the site and get on with your/her life
