I am dealing with trolls
Hi there,
On my forum I am dealing with horrible trolls and I know who they are and where they are from. A couple days ago a mod was banned for rudeness and over using her powers and cussing us out. I banned her and she told a couple of her friends and they keep coming and trolling I have banned their IP & they keep coming back. They have spammed our forums countless of times with a bunch of meaningless posts, they create more accounts and spam the CB . My staff and I have gotten tired of banning them and their IP addresses and their posts they spam it is just dumb. At one point I had to put the option for no new members could join and I gotten PMs that people wanted to join. They write horrible messages and I also have screen shots as I pretended to be a new member on their forum and screen shot what they said. in one of them they want a hacker to "destroy" my site and the worst thing is their staff is on their side as I tried to contact them and they dont care. In our site we keep bios for record purposes not hacking/thieving their bios but to keep track and they keep threatening us as well its quite annoying here are the screen shots :

Hello LeWolfAddict,
There isn't much we can do with personal conflicts between forums. The only things you can do are :
You can perform a litigation against a forum only if it breaks Forumotion's ToS.

Re: I am dealing with trolls
What if the other forum is formution as well? isnt that like harassment ?
Re: I am dealing with trolls
Action will only be taken if that Forumotion forum is breaking the Terms of Service.

Re: I am dealing with trolls
Harassment could be considered breaking the Terms of Services, but it depends on how it is done (hacking).
Quick Question: Is this over you not deleting their accounts?
