    Oh, they tried. They tried so many damn times to get me and I'm still here with my original account, original name and original avatar And other than Vangion and METROPOLIS1 there isn't a lot of people that can say that. Y/A staff if you are polite enough will work with you as they deal with these kind of actions against other higher profile members. I have had at least 3 maybe 4 report attacks on my account to kill it. And those are the ones I know about or think happened. It's why I am careful about contacts and my Q&A. I havent had a question or answer reported against me in almost a year.

    I have had my account hacked, ever since I started using 'special' passwords that issue has not come up though. And gd knows how many times I've been cloned. But again Y/A staff is good about this if you are polite.

    Nope.....I've been suspended twice.Reopened under the same name.Both suspensions were from when I was drunk and said something about a certain homo teacher.Not sure what I said exactly but didn't bother to contest it.This site is mostly to occupy down time.The weather sucks here in the winter so I don't do a lot outside.It'll be a cold day in hell when I take YA answers too seriously.Most answers are sarcastic ( mine included ) which I enjoy.Then you have the ones made by COD commando's , kids and people who think they know a lot but are basically stupid.Then you have the handful who do know what they are talking about.Most of my questions are opinion questions anyway.

    Oh boy. Over the years I have been attacked so many times. I have a block list of over 50 accounts many from the same person. One scammed me into making them a contact then they went trough thousands of my Q&A and reported every one they could. In one day I got 14 violations some going back to answers 3 years ago. So I changed my name from beedsarefunak to Bear Crap, made most of my profile private, ended a blog I had and am now careful who I accept as a contact.

    Yahoo threatened to lock by account several times and I had to plead with their staff. I pointed out I am trying to save life’s, prevent crimes, prevent people getting hurt or killed and I never troll the boards. Also I pointed out this is my wife’s account and why punish her if I made a mistake. Well after the reviews that sent me a nice email about how much they like what I am doing to help others and that I have been here since 2006.

    I am now checking the profile of the asker and then google search their name and join data to read their other questions. It pays off big time for me to know it’s a troll or a anti-hunter.

    The real topper was a guy who wrote me for 2 years and finely I gave him my real name and location. Bad move! This guy shows up dressed like a commando, driving a Hummer that had been extra armor plated and pulling a river boat that looked military. He didn’t know squat about anything. He was dreaming of being a survivalist. Well after a few months in town he had every one madder than hell at him. And I was glad to see him move on. So if you aren’t defending yourself here it can actually reach home! My daughter found that out 8 years ago when a cyber friend from 2000 mils away shows up at our door. He was a low life punk who stole every thing he could. We had to have the police help us run him off and bought him a one way ferry ticket to leave town. She learned a hard lesson.

    That explaines why I will never give out my real name here. Its just asking for problems.

    I'm now not an endorse, precisely, however I'm now not a squisher, both. The handiest matters I kill out proper are the ones which might be unsafe (wasps, hornets, black widow spiders, and so forth) and mosquitoes. Oh, and ticks, however I suppose that is comprehensible. I am honestly fearful of spiders however my mother on no account killed them, so I've simply gotten into the dependancy of scooping them up and surroundings them external. I'm well with insects, so long as they do not trouble me an excessive amount of.
