I am amazed at what passes for responses to internet discussions and gaming rivalries these days.

Doxxing and SWATting.

I have no idea what possesses people to such cruelty and vindictiveness.

However I’ve been practically doxxed twice; once on World of Warcraft andother on a gaming message board and its politics section.

The individuals involved were both unstable as hell and it was a frightening experience to know without a real name, email address etc. they were able to sleuth who I was. One went so far as an IP look up/tracking through Ventrillo. If you’re a gamer you may know what that is.

There was a person on a baseball board that used to hack peoples emails and got all types of info. A very smart very disturbed teen that would pull all their personal info and print it on the board. I do not know all that happened but someone finally hacked him and some intervention happened.
