I haven't. I don't have much of an online presence, also I don't see why anyone would want to.
I've thought about posting my picture in the selfie thread because i am handsome (and so is everyone else in that thread), but I don't know.
I realized this site is the main social media I us at this point, and the anonymity is an aspect of it that is appealing. I feel like that is the case for a lot of people here.

Anyway, someone else can make the thread interesting if they had that experience. Or not, it's cool

I was involved in a small-scale crypto pump-and-dump operation between 2013-2016. "Doxxed" is maybe the wrong word but a lot of people were angry at me (some still are). While changing your name normally involves a newspaper announcement in case you are doing it to avoid, well, more-or-less precisely this situation there is a nice loophole if you take your spouse's name. Not totally air-tight but sufficiently so.

Because it never leaves its bedroom, no one has ever seen this poster's real face.
doxxed in the sense of finding out personal information like my name and address and posting it online? no
doxxed in the sense of collating information to find my posts on another website and revealing that I jerk off to orcs in order to unfairly humiliate me in front of my online friends? no
doxxed in the sense of screenshotting my own public post and blacking out my username and avatar but the post can still be found with a text search resulting in as many as one person going to my inbox to call me a homo? also no

I like to keep a low profile, which is why none of you have figured out that I'm wwe wrestler Kane, the big red machine

It's pretty easy to find my name because I take paypal donations and if anyone wants to find me it's not much harder either.

With that said I've been stalked twice, once by a Let's Player fan who wasn't even a goon and read it off-site when there was a LP paywall. She found me on a dating app and even if you filter by Rio de Janeiro I have no idea how she knew it was me because there was nothing in my profile referencing to my online activities or nerdy hobbies, there were no pictures of me in the forums during 2011-2014 either. The only conclusion we had is that she either brute-forced it added a bunch of people, (my messenger handler was Elentor at the time, I no longer make that mistake), or she did some crazy internet detectiving to find out who I was.

I know the answer is "mental illness" but it always makes me wonder why anyone would think this is a good idea? Like, they'll charm you with their intricate knowledge of your let's play, you'll find that irresistible, so much that you ignore the creepy rear end loving poo poo?

Stalking isn't fun, I'm sorry you dealt with that poo poo. I'm glad you're safer now (I hope!) and/or are no longer doing let's plays.

Was it even a good game? Or one of those obscure ones that she just latched onto? People are loving weird.

I told this story before but she immediately told me that it was a bet with her uni class. Turns out that was the social glue among a bunch of bored 20-something year olds and since they knew I was from Rio she made a bet with them that she could find me and hook up with me for the flex/bragging rights/whatever the hell.

So yeah she told me that as if to brag that she did successfully stalk me and I never heard of her again.

Casual stalking to bond at university, that is a totally normal and cool thing. Who hasn't done some stalk bonding? Or maybe a murder haze? Those wacky students.

Poo In An Alleyway
Feb 12, 2016



Yep I was doxxed on Twitter by some idiot pro-lifer in 2018. He posted my name, phone number, what political groups I was affiliated with at the time, then made a press release about me that used both my real name and my username repeatedly. I had to get Google to remove it from their search rankings if you googled my name, but I did save a screenshot of the press release for laffos; it’s not every day you see a press release with the words ‘Poo In An Alleyway’ written in it.

Elentor’s FF7 LP owns and imo is an important part of forums history.

E: not saying that stalking was justified. Obviously that’s hosed up and I’m sorry they went through that.

I was back in the mid-2010s but it was never made public. There was a bit of a mutually-assured destruction angle, a Cold War of sorts within my friend group at the time.

Back in like 2010 someone "from the internet" called my boss and tried to get me fired but he could not have cared less. I think the catalyst was my posting about Pikmin on the Nintendo message boards.
