Am I the only one paranoid at the cyberworld? I often feel like somebody is watching and stalking me.


message 2: by [deleted user] (new)

I feel like that too, but not on GR or Pinterest.


message 3: by [deleted user] (new)

Really? I feel like I'm stalked on every website I'm on. I've been bullied on every site I'm on. I'm sick of it. Can't they think of something better to do than hurt me? ^.^


message 4: by [deleted user] (new)

And I was sexually harassed on one of my favorite sites.


message 5: by [deleted user] (new)

Oh wow, I'm sorry:/


message 6: by [deleted user] (new)

I'm more worried IRL.


message 7: by [deleted user] (new)

I feel uncomfortable in both worlds. I'm amazed I still am even on these sites if I'm so scared of them! I'm even scared of this site!

You shouldn't be scared of this website tiny if anyone tries to bully you we'll help you


message 9: by [deleted user] (new)

I guess why I'm scared of this website is because the sexual harasser is on this website. And I often feel like he's still watching me. Gosh, now I wish I reported him so he could serve his time in jail. And I've never wished for somebody to go to jail, but he's an exception.


message 10: by [deleted user] (new)

But it's hard for me to believe any website is safe anymore. Nowadays I believe every website is completely unsafe except my email, and I'm still scared that someone will hack into my email.


message 11: by [deleted user] (new)

I'm sorry you had to go through all that:/ We will help you if anyone bullies you here.


message 12: by [deleted user] (new)

That's what I hate: NO SITE IS SAFE! I wish things were different. *sighs* And I sometimes wish I could've thrown that jerk in jail while I had the chance. Now I only have one single thing to prove that he sexually harassed me, and not even that is enough!


message 13: by [deleted user] (new)

Easier said than done.

Yup."


Are you paranoid at the cyberworld too?


message 15: by Maximillian (new)

Maximillian (maximillianthefirst) My parent are slightly paranoid but since I am trying to make a living on youtube they are starting to loosen up.


message 16: by [deleted user] (new)

Am I the only one paranoid at the cyberworld here? I feel like I am.


message 17: by Sierra (new)

Sierra (skippingstones4) | 819 comments Well, Idk if I would say I'm paranoid...I don't give out any personal info though besides the state I live in.

But Crazy, it seems like you make smart decisions here on goodreads so I don't think you have anything to worry about :)

But I still feel like I'm going to be sexually harassed again. And going to be chased around by stalkers.


message 19: by [deleted user] (new)

@Lia, I don't use my real name online either


message 20: by [deleted user] (new)

Very few people know my real name. Brenda is really my fake name.


message 21: by [deleted user] (new)

There are only 4 people on GR who know my real name


message 22: by Sierra (new)

Sierra (skippingstones4) | 819 comments Mackenzie isn't your real name?


message 23: by [deleted user] (new)

I should change my username often so stalkers lose track of me.

I don't even know why I have the feeling of stalkers chasing me. Sometimes I even feel like the stalkers are reading what I'm writing here. There's only one group I feel safe on nowadays, but that's because it's a private group and only one of my friends is on there besides me.


message 24: by [deleted user] (new)

Nope. I love you all, but I'm not gonna give out my real name online.


message 25: by [deleted user] (new)

Yeah. Me and the internet have had a bad past.


message 26: by Maximillian (new)

Maximillian (maximillianthefirst) My name is actually Max no hiding for me.


message 27: by [deleted user] (new)

Well, I had rumors spread about me and was cyberbullied here so I felt like a different website was my only safe haven. But then boom! I was sexually harassed there, cyberbullied there, and for absolutely no reason a person tried to delete my account because of the fact that I wrote something she didn't like. And there are a lot of other reasons why I am paranoid at internet, including the fact that the sexual harasser chased me to this site.


message 28: by [deleted user] (new)

Make that two groups, but I'm not mentioning their names or else a stalker is going to chase me there…

See? I did it again. I believe I'm being stalked everywhere I go! Especially since the bullies from this site chased me onto another site and the sexual harasser from the other site chased me to this site.

STOP STALKING ME, STALKERS WHO ARE SECRETLY PEEKING INTO THIS THREAD!!!!!!

I think I'm too paranoid here. >_<


message 29: by Maximillian (new)

Maximillian (maximillianthefirst) What about the picture?


message 30: by [deleted user] (new)

Posting your pic online is very dangerous. Stalkers can easily find you. As the saying goes: "A picture's worth a thousand words". So it speaks a lot about you. It's scary, really. I heard once of this case where a person simply posted her photo online (she didn't even give out her name or anything!), and a sex offender instantly found out every single bit of info about her and kidnapped her. Actually there were several cases of that, and some didn't occur on Facebook!!!


message 31: by Maximillian (new)

Maximillian (maximillianthefirst) Well I have a youtube channel and am trying to build it so I think it is to late for me.


message 32: by [deleted user] (new)

@Crazy
Gosh, you're scaring me! I need to change my pic


message 33: by [deleted user] (last edited Jul 31, 2013 01:13PM) (new)

I'm scaring you? I'm scaring myself! I'm so scared to the point I even believe that posting a picture of your animal or even your finger or anything of or belonging to you is dangerous!


message 34: by [deleted user] (new)

Oh dear...


message 35: by [deleted user] (new)

Yeah… *sighs*


message 36: by Ken (new)

Ken (kensamcampo) a little

You're certain I haven't given personal info here? Because I often feel like I HAVE.


message 39: by [deleted user] (new)

Yeah, good point.


message 40: by [deleted user] (new)

Same with me, Meiyu


message 41: by Sierra (new)

Sierra (skippingstones4) | 819 comments Idk if this has anything to do with it, but age might be a factor in how safe we feel. I'm almost 18 so it's not as big of a deal to me as it would have been when I was 13 or 14.


message 42: by Sierra (new)

Sierra (skippingstones4) | 819 comments Okay, maybe not almost 18 but I've been 17 for a few months XD


message 43: by [deleted user] (new)

I care less about Internet safety than my older sister (she's almost 16)


message 44: by [deleted user] (new)

Yeah, I'm not a dog either.


message 45: by [deleted user] (new)

I like it:)


message 46: by Sierra (new)

Sierra (skippingstones4) | 819 comments That's awesome, Meiyu! :D

Oh, you know that Brenda isn't my real name, right?

Whoa, imagine your scaredom increased to ten times and that's how scared I am. I'm trying to write so I don't think about how paranoid I am at the cyberworld. >_<


message 50: by [deleted user] (new)

Is there any way to stop being paranoid at the cyberworld?
