Fanpop Question

What should I do about a clingy fan?

Sorry this question is so long, but please bear with me.

I'm not going to name him/her, but I was talking to a seemingly nice and normal Fanpopper for a while. Then, his/her messages started getting weird and making me uncomfortable, and it seemed like s/he was making things up. I know he/she has been lying to other users as well, so I decided to block him/her without their knowing.

Recently, he/she posted a personal message to me on a forum post of mine, which I promptly reported. Now, it's like I fear running into this person on the clubs we have in common, and some of the things s/he says there make me uncomfortable, not knowing if s/he is joking or not. Not to mention, s/he has found my YouTube account.

Should I report this user, politely ask them to stop bothering me (which I doubt will work), or something else? I'm getting pretty desperate and may resort to quitting Fanpop and YouTube. Or perhaps I'm just overreacting?

Whew. Just FYI, I reported him/her and left notes. Thanks germany and Vixie!

i say report. let zee gods of fanpop deal with the matter.
is it someone you know irl? hiding behind a profile?

i dont know if youre overreacting cause i dont know what you mean by "uncomfortable"- sexual remarks? insulting? creepy/stalkerish? any chance they know you/where you live etc?

ALWAYS make a report explaining what this person is doing in the notes section. consider PMing one of the f4 if the person is downright creepy/abusive. if its just sorta annoying report
link and ignore and possibly change your online name.

S/he's making me uncomfortable because they keep saying things like they do all these drugs and stuff. I don't know if I'm being too much of a goody little Christian girl about it, lol.

I don't know if s/he knows where I live but I'm starting to feel a little creeped out, like a gut feeling.

0_o germany i thought you were going to say that he took the kids limbs... :O but yes in all part seriousness (for it's a Saturday...no, 7 minutes into Sunday, germany can be good to talk to, there's also an advice spot where lots of people would offer help :)

I agree with Germany. I would report it and make sure to tell them why. If it's just on here I don't think anyone could really get your actual addy unless you give it to them personally. But yeah, I would just report them about the creepy behavior. Tell them it's inappropriate subjects that are making you feel uneasy and weirded out.
