Title: Theymos needs to check an IP addy for my life's been official threatened via PM.
Post by: Gleb Gamow on August 21, 2015, 03:24:52 PM
!!! WARNING: This user is a newbie. If you are expecting a message from a more veteran member, then this is an imposter !!!

Hello, I just created a Bit Coin account, and I have no idea even what it is!
The only reason I found this, is that I found your zombie dolls by doing a google search.
I make zombie dolls also.
do you have any other pictures?

The above was sent to me just prior to Leroy Fodor aka StakeMiners sent me a PM even though he has me on ignore where I can't PM him. I have very strong reason to believe that he's the one that sent me the above, hence requesting to check the IP address. No, I'm not requesting that such info me sent to me, but such account should be put in some special folder in case needed for future review.

To be clear, the PM sent me 100% alludes to there being a Zombie doll of my likeness designed to cause me bodily harm, ergo a crime committed on this forum.

Thank you.

Soon there will be people selling their services as Scientologists in Services section.

Meta will be full demanding a dedicated section for Scientologists.

Some people will start posting in Development & Disccussion that block size needs to be determined by Scientologists & Numerologist.

There will be a BIP in Github claiming difficulty calculation needs to be done by astrologers.

Yeah right.
Everyone knows zombies aren't real. We only think they are real because of the evil influence of the werewolves.

Now you're scaring me! Leroy Fodor's financier for StakeMiners is wofvman. Also, notice the word "stake" in StakeMiners. Theymos needs to take this threat seriously.

IP's are logged whenever someone does any of the following (this list may not be inclusive):
  • Creates an account
  • Sends a PM
  • Makes a post
It is my understanding that IP's for the above activities are kept forever.

You should keep in mind that there is a possibility that whoever sent you that PM was using tor or another anonymity tool to hide their "real" IP address.

Yep. But Leroy could've logged in with his StakeMiners' account, logged out, created a new account, sent me a PM, logged out, then back into his StakeMiners account. If such a pattern occurred, that needs to be preserved.

I can't tell if your trolling or not but I don't see any death threats there, and this definitely isn't something you should be crying wolf about nor should it be in meta if its a joke.

Exactly, this thread should be moved in the OT section.

Nope, not a joke! theymos has my permission to view my recent PMs to verify.

See how odd it was for Leroy Fodor to PM me after being on record myriad times that I'm on his ignore list and that I'm unable to PM him because he has me blocked?

If you view my recent activity on this forum, you'll see that most of my efforts have been directed toward the proven liar, Leroy Fodor and his StakeMiners' Ponzi. Thus, I'm pretty sure that he's behind the threat, and I formally request that theymos at least look into it to see if an IP address can be gleaned, and if the StakeMiners' account logged off and logged back on via using a PW during the timeframe. Sure, such wouldn't stand up in a court of law, and I wouldn't be privy to such info, but at least theymos would have the investigation on file.

It's a foregone conclusion that we're dealing with a very, very, very unstable individual, of which Kano, among others, can easily verify such fact.

If I had a BTC for every time someone threatened to kill me I could take a well financed vacation.

As long as the sender isn't from Louisiana or Haiti, there's no reason to fear they have any actual control over zombies.

Move this to 'Off-topic' please.

I may not be that concern, but this is a viable threat that needed addressing given that Leroy Fodor has gone Full Fodor! (follow the link in my sig to get up to speed on this cancerous creature)

if you feel threatened then first go to the police, theymos won't reveal IPs unless he receives a FBI letter or if the issue is really serious.

{why I'm answering if I know this is not a serious topic?}

I might be wrong on this but I'm pretty sure threats aren't illegal unless that person who made the threat has the means to carry it out

Depends where you live. Here in Canada it is illegal to utter threats that would harm a person, damage property, or that would harm someone's animal. I suspect there are similar laws across the US and in parts of Europe as well.

However, I wouldn't take this "threat" seriously. I haven't read about this Fodor individual before, but I wouldn't be taking the message sent to the OP seriously.

You are wrong.

In almost all jurisdictions in the USA it's called "Assault by Threat" or "Terroristic Threats" and ranges from a Class B Misdemeanor to 3rd Degree Felony.

Not sure where PG is but in most places they will put you in jail quick for threats.

I think everyone's missing an obvious question here: the PM the OP shared doesn't allude to zombie being built in the OP's likeness nor that said zombie (if it did exist) would be used to conduct bodily harm.

Either the OP needs to explain where the threat is or the rest of us need to ignore the troll.

Don't ruin your reputation because of Leroy Fodor. You will be called as a troll if you continue this!

Lock the thread. Period.
