I didn't know where to post this, but to those who IM me...

Hey Guys and Gals!

I just wanted to post this in a place many who IM me on Yahoo would see it. I'm sorry I haven't been on much lately. I have been sick. I've been getting a lot of "why are you avoiding me?" messages and some down right mean ones. My phone signs me into Yahoo randomly sometimes and I am unaware of it 90% of the time. Me not responding to you doesn't give you the right to call me names, IM me 40 times in 10 minutes or "report" me to yahoo for abuse. Those who are doing this know who you are. I put my s/n up as a sign of good faith and to talk to those who share my love of robotics...not to be harrassed. So please stop. If I'm on and don't respond, you know why. I don't want to have to change my s/n or take it off of here, but I will if I have to. The next step would then be to leave the site and that's just unfair.

I'm sorry if this upsets people for being off topic completely.

I think the next step would be, we kick their asses to the FC curb.

We have never tolerated anything like that harassment.

Wow, that's awful. Sorry you have to experience that.

Please bring details of your harassment to the staff, Robo_Sugar. We do no tolerate abuse toward any member, and Kishin and I will act upon legitimate complaints. I apologize for the ill treatment you have mentioned. Please accept my apology on behalf of the great majority of the members here.

Thank you all. I will be sure to report it if it happens again. I'm hoping that this post was enough. My experience on the site has been a great one! I don't want to let a few bad eggs ruin it for me. I've finally found a place I feel comfortable...minus a few things. I won't let that color my view of everyone on here.

Tell me who they are, and I'll introduce them to the business end of my wiffle bat. I'll be all "Take that!" and they'll be "Hey, that stings a bit!"

That is awful! I often get people IMing my through facebook, and I never use the facebook chat. Luckily no one has abused it. But to report someone for not replying is just stupid. I'm sure you won't get in trouble for that.
I hope you do stay on the forums here. Don't let the bad eggs get to you. I'm sure Robotman will do something to help out.
