Well it didn't take long for the Dirtbag Du Jour to change back to his old ways. An announcement that was just posted stating they will continue to attack and abuse people they don't like. Looks like the coffee is cancelling out the medication he was on! We think the "Time To End The Drama" was a joke, just like Ammon Pera and Jason Feingold. Don't fret, we've been working hard to keeping them honest.

We'll be keeping our media blitz going! Unlike inVd we don't pretend to be something we're not. We'll be calling them out on their disgraceful actions and behavior. We will continue to state our perspective on their shenanigans.

OPEN LETTER TO AMMON PERA

Ammon,

We know it wouldn't be long before you'd be back to your old ways, just like Joan Collins' character Alexis Morell Carrington Colby Dexter Rowan was from Dynasty! You know that show from the 80s? You're JUST like her, just not as fashionable, talented, witty, clever or pretty. Consider all those names as your alts in SL!



You can take the girl out of Bethlehem but you can't take the Bethlehem out of the girl! Now that you're back let the games continue!

Lots of love, Buzz

InVd Drama Free with a Fresh New Scent?

InVd announced yesterday that they were taking the highroad, but that does not excuse their actions and what they have done to others in the past. As a post over at Ammon Who? called "Time to end the Drama? Or.." makes a good point that it's time for "Mr. Pera, [to] tear that blog down". I wanted to re-post my reply here.

InVd cannot take the highroad while allowing all these posts that have bashed innconent people to remain on their blog!

I will agree if they tear that blog down and start anew without all those bashing posts then we'd be hard pressed to not do the same. As this is the very point we have been trying to make endlessly.

Honestly we don't think this decision was decided because they are good natured people. It is because what little support they had is slipping away! No one wants to be associated with a drama blog!? Advertisers won't pay money to be griefed by people complaining they are associated with a hater blog like inVd.

That is right! I said hater blog! Because they are a bunch of jealous untalented hateful jackasses. They lost ANY respect when they go after others thinking the stench of their actions won't affect them. Clearly the collateral damage of being an advertiser there is costing people plenty. I certainly won't patronize any paying advertiser on InVd.

As far as I am concerned they still reek of the same nasty odor of drama!

inVd is making noise around the grid like howling flying monkeys!

We came across this inV outpost, charming isn't it?

We'd like to point out that inVd is making noise around the grid and the blogs, but not the kind they'd like all of their readers to think. It's been reported to us that they are not welcomed to most places in SL. The few places they are welcomed only tolerate them. It is only time before they get banned from the few places they go to now.

Ammon Pera has a loose cannon on his hands named Jason Feingold who continues his activities with chat sniffers and assortment of alts that cause grief for those around the GRID.

Just like everyone else, we at SL Daily Buzz would like to see inVd fall off the face of the GRID.

AS REPORTED IN SL IN WORLD TODAY

Wacko Jason Feingold gets the boot from BOSL (Best of SL) staff!! We are including a link here for you to read the news that Natalie Nivens has just posted! According to the posting Jason Feingold was considered too risky to keep on staff. We have to wonder what Jason Feingold was doing to get Frolic Mills to boot his sorry drug addicted ass out on the street. Could it be that word got out about all be nasty things this avatar has been doing to people?

KUDOS to Mr. Frolic Mills for this decision. However we'll have to warn Frolic Mills that the loose cannon that is Jason Feingold may attempt to disrupt your sims and visitors to your shops.

However, we have not been able to confirm this posting independantly. Wacko Jason Feingold is still showing under the BOSL staff group. We will keep you updated as this story is still developing. } Buzz

UPDATE FROM THE "FASHION RAG"

Wacko Jason Feingold reportedly is denying that he was booted from BOSL staff and provided a screen shot. However we find it interesting that he removed it from his profile. I guess we'll have to thumb through the last issue of BOSL and see if there are any articles written by him.

Not to our surprise we couldn't find a single article written by Jason Feingold. So it doesn't really matter if he wasn't officially booted, if you have nothing written in the BOSL magazine, you're effectively not in the magazine. If we did miss something that was written, it must have been on page 300, so far back no one is going to read it anyway. } Buzz

STALKER: Jason Feingold

Can you believe that InV Daily would publish an article about how to combat their own neighborhood stalker Jason Feingold? Clearly Ammon must know that Jason is known for dropping chat sniffers, stalking people, and harassing them with alts. He is jealous of their success. He has never recovered from the demise of Club High Energy which he ruined.

We have been getting a lot of great reports from a few people who Jason Feingold has been stalking, however when we approached them and they all declined to comment on it. Unlike InV Daily that would use anything they hear we actually respect people's requests not to be included in our reporting.

If you are currently being harassed by Ammon Pera, Jason Feingold or any or the other freaks of nature over at InV Daily, please reply to this posting! We want everyone to know all about it and show you our support!!

Thank You Ammon Pera for the Public Service Announcement!

InV Daily did us a favor and posted on how to handle stalkers like Jason Feingold just today. We decided to include a copy here for your enjoyment.

Cheers!

-----[Original Post]-----

As we've recently seen, stalking can happen in Second Life, just as Real Life. We've witnessed people obsessively seeking real life information on staff in an effort to intimidate them and sharing that information (true or false) in-world and on blogs. The same people have constantly checked profiles for any changes, made it a point to show up at venues where these people are and posted degrading and untrue information on blogs. Individuals involved in the stalking have threatened staff on several occasions for the simple act of keeping a publication running.

While inVd has no plans of changing it's style, we have chosen to offer you advice for what you can do if you are stalked by an ex-lover, competitor or someone else who thinks you have ruined their life.

First, make no references about the person, on their blog, in IM, or in public chat. Doing so will give defense a case that what is happening is a spat, not harassment, and investigators see this and often won't even look into a stalking claim if it is perpetuated.

Second, document, document, document. Turn on public chat logging and keep your IM logging on. Take screen shots of everything your stalker does, in case it's taken down. Get a notebook and write down everything with dates and times. Police expect you to have documentation of several incidents. One or two incidents is more likely to look like a fight than stalking.

Third, File abuse reports with Linden Labs. You might not get anywhere with the Lindens, especially if alts are involved, but your abuse reports can be subpoenaed for use in a trial.

Since we're in a virtual setting, there are certain steps you can take to protect yourself.

1. Don't give your real life information to anyone. You can see that there are some pretty crazy people out there. Some of them seem completely normal at first.

2. Don't share RL pictures. RL pictures can be used to find you if someone happens to figure out where your location is.

3. Don't use your RL name for your avatar name. This makes it easier for someone to find you in RL.

4. Keep as much as possible in-world. If harassment comes in-world, the Lindens will eventually address it. If it's out of world, they won't.

For both worlds, keep the number for your local law enforcement on hand and a phone with you in case your stalker shows up. inVd posted early in its creation about a woman who broke in to her ex lover's house and hid in his closet. Deadbolt your doors, change your phone number if necessary, alert your neighbors and try to keep enough money on hand to fund a stay in a hotel if necessary.

Unfortunately, stalkers can begin to base their self-esteem on their victims. The victim becomes their life. The obsession can go so far as a need to kill the victim. This carries over to virtual interactions as well. Take steps to protect yourselves before you find yourself in a position where the line between SL and RL blurs in a horrible fashion.

Stay safe
