Yikes..this had ended up being an intersting day...to say the least. Morning was bad...then I posted something on another board that is going to take a bite out of my real life ass and I can't do anything about it because I was quoted. I hate people who edit, but I knew I shouldn't have posted it in the first place but this pompous person was driving me nuts and I had scenario that proved her wrong...only it involved indirectly knocking a barnmate's horse (the one I was going to buy) and it will no doubtedly get back to her and she's the type that think all her horses crap gold. Sigh. I also knocked a board-mate's horse and now she's out to prove something so the problem won't die.
and then on here I get you all riled up because I deleted my post. Really, the situation wasn't bad...I just got paranoid about the ramifications of possibly admitting wrong-doing online. The guy just definitely wanted to teach me and all the a--holes like me lesson. I just don't want him to ever have any more ammo than necessary if he decides to get vindictive.
I should've never gotten out of bed this morning.

Not riled up Rugbug in the least. Worried for you, yes. Wanna help deal with jerks that seem to have given you a stressed out day for something small -- absolutely.
I'm sorry to hear that you've got dramas on another board. *hugs* Wish I could do more to help than be a listening ear.
Briglad: I'm glad it didn't eat your card. But yeah, that whole scenario sucks. (This is why I'm leery of the online banking thing...this isn't the first time I've heard of this kind of thing happening to someone I know/know of.)

Heh. I do. What if he decides to come after me and right there in black and white on FFF.net is an admission of guilt. He had some serious anger issues.
Poor police officer, I got slightly emotional, no tears, but you could hear it in my voice. I'd hate to be the guy that has to deal with an emotional woman first thing in the morning.
hehe you're silly. Does he even know your name? Is there any way to link your name to your screen name? At worst he'd get some crazy high priced lawyer who would track down all your internet activity by ip address or something. I doubt he's that intent on going after you.

Hey even I know that knocking someone else horse is a no no and then some. If she is rude about it , that only makes everyone else more sure she's a jerk
We were just worried because you seemed so concerned he could find what you posted on line which would indicate knowledge of your life. Oh and if this guy thinks you're an asshole he's obviously profoundly delusional

I know, I know.
Someone with decent search skills could link my screenname with my real name. I don't think he has my name...but I can't remember if I gave it to the 911 operator or not with him standing there. You just hear crazy stories about people getting tracked down and their online stuff coming back to haunt them.

No I don't. Don't go putting stories in my ears. I've really never heard anything like that. I'd be shocked if someone really did such a thing.
I think you're fine. Just take deep breaths and go back to life as usual.

Steamer found some scary site that will stalk someone for you. It claims to just be to keep tabs on significant others, but I still say it should be pulled immediately as that is creepy and profoundly dangerous. How do they know they aren't selling the info to someone who will use it to harm the person??? To love someone is to see a miracle invisible to others.

Hopefully they follow the same procedures as private investigators. They have procedures for that stuff, right?
