Holy smokes. That person must be seriously deranged.

You should keep stuff like that and I see you have. I had a particularly nasty cyberstalker/cybersmearer on Findlaw from 2002 through 2006 or 2007. The law is quite different now as back then the cops in Pinellas County; Chesterfield County, Virginia and the FBI would not do anything about this anonymous creep I had had. Cyberstalking and Cyberharassment Laws Statutes & Constitution :View Statutes : Online Sunshine Secure Florida - Cyberstalking I could not figure out who he was for years until he bragged about playing me for a fool. It turned out he was some Criminal Defendant from Chesterfield County who was upset I could not find him just the right legal citation-- technicality-- to get him off of his white collar crime case. I did try to keep a lot of his more vicious posts on Findlaw. He posted with literally hundreds of different identities. He was very pleasant though in the e-mails to me when he needed my help. You do have to watch out for Dr. Jekyl and Mr. Hyde type personalities on the Internet. I certainly liked helping Dr. Jekyl as I traveled to law libraries all over Tampa Bay trying to help him as well as checking out their practical holdings for survivors/victims of crimes.

He was a very talented troll knowing just what buttons to push to make me angrier and angrier especially since for a long time I could not figure out why hated me so much. I just made an easy target IMHO and I know I still do present an easy punching bag. That was the whole reason for the gaslighting attack in 2000 in Palm Harbor and Tarpon Springs. They knew I would tell people about it and make myself sound bonkers. It really worked for more than a decade. People do not want to hear that evil like that happens in the US but it does.

Bye bye. I hope others will look at my Photobucket Array for Taltarzac725. You should be able to see the problems I was having fighting for survivors/victims of crimes access to practical information from January 1991 onward. Often the only way they could attack my credibility was going against me instead of addressing the actual issue. The issue is practical information for survivors/victims of crimes that is actually in or accessible through libraries. It is not my mental health. No matter how crazy I may sound that niche can be easily investigated. It is terrible philosophical debate with all kinds of logical flaws but is very good bullying politics. https://yourlogicalfallacyis.com/ad-hominem https://yourlogicalfallacyis.com/ Ad Hominem (Abusive) Some of the names in those documents on my Photobucket Facebook array are in the news right now in 2015.

I mean primarily Topix Talk of the Villages. I am usually not their target of hate but some others on here do get quite a lot of malice directed towards them. It seems it allows anonymous names so one person can take of dozens of facades.
The Topix website is nasty. I haven't looked at it in at least a year. It makes TOTV look like rainbows, unicorns and angel wings.

I googled Topix Talk of the Villages. Is the last post on TV on Topix Jul 22, 2014? I didn't bother to read it since it was so old.

I perceived I was threatened on TOTV once. I took an unpopular stand on a controversial topic. I'm no longer raising children or teaching students. So I only talk to my friends and family about controversial topics.

I've subscribed to this site for over 4 years, and found it to be quite useful, adding insight to the many of the issues and concerns of fellow Villagers.
Let's please try to get back on-track, and be more considerate of the OP.

The latest is around October 18, 2015 talking about their experiences at the latest Crisper's TOTV lunch. I do not bother to look at this Topix stuff often as it is usually the equivalent of junior high school bathroom stall scribbling.

If it comes up when I Google Taltarzac725 I look at it. Otherwise I do not look at it unless it becomes a problem for some other TOTVer. Then I do try to get to the bottom of what is going on given whatever resources I have available to do that.

I do hunt for that cybersmearer/cyberstalker I had on Findlaw from 2001 through 2006-2007 occasionally just in case he makes another appearance some where I post but I have never seen what looks to be him anywhere since 2008. Topix would be his style. He hides using clever avatar names and is usually one of the nastiest posters on a site.

I tried googling Topix again and got different results. This time I found new threads filled with anger, angst and rhetoric; oh well. On a positive note I'm making gingerbread and spice pancakes for breakfast and later I'm playing Amberwood and Okliegh back to back. Recently I rediscovered that if I swing as hard as I can I can hit a 5 iron 170 yards. I haven't done that, ever. And the swing doesn't work yet with my driver but I'll keep trying.
