hmm, I wouldn't mind addressing what all this has cost me. It might not seem trivial when I explained it. I think I could do that with talking about the banned people, in general terms of how such harassment affects real life.
This is a SHOUT OUT to an UNKNOWN Punaweb reader whom I have no other way to contact:
I would like to appeal to an unknown person who tried to be helpful way back in January. Perhaps you read this forum still.
In late January, you sent an email to John Rabi, which basically reproached him for posting comments to a cartoon depicting me bound, gagged, and screaming for help as if he found it amusing. Specifically, he had requested a new cartoon, one showing a girl with a dildo. I think that remark was really aimed at hawaiideborah, but the cartoon was about me.
You used an anonymizer to hide who wrote the email. Understandable, no blame from me. However, the anonymous thing drove John a little nuts. Shortly after, he accused me of sending it to him, because I also had emailed him about the questionable taste of posting to the blog in this manner. I guess the emails sounded alike to him.
As I did NOT send it to him, and so couldn't "admit" it as he wished, he has posted publicly that I am untrustworthy and sneaky and a weasel and a psychopath, and from what people have said he has talked a lot of stink privately.
Furthermore, he decided to "investigate" me and created a folder or dossier on me with my IP's and email address, photos he had from a social occasion, and I don't know what all -- and gave them to "internet security experts."
All in the name of tracking down one anonymous email that I didn't send.
SO
If you are the kind person who sent John Rabi an anonymous email, PLEASE could you come forward and let him know I didn't send it? [

I would happily say I sent the email if I had. I think the fuss over it he has made is way over the top. It was a perfectly civil email although it dared to be critical of him. (He sent me a copy of it so I would understand his reasoning.)
This has been going on for almost nine months with John sniping at me and my reputation because of his unfounded suspicions. [

So that you can tell if it was your email, it mentioned the fact that John loves
cats. John thought I was the only person who reads Punaweb who might know that.
