Putting a poster's posting history on their profile encourages trolls to stalk others
I think the feature should be removed.
shareNO.
If you have a problem with stalkers, report them instead.
Reporting is the slow method and clogs up the report logs.
The quick method is to remove the tool they use. You don't need to be following anybody's posting history anyway unless you are stalking them. Stalker supporter.
With so many trolls around, being able to see posting history is essential. But you know that already and are playing naive.
share¯\_(ツ)_/¯
shareBut you know that already and are playing naive
So like what was the point of you saying that? What does it have to do with what I said?
It amazes me how people add comments that come from absolute thin air all because they want to support stalking.
You don't need to be on message board if you can't post without following someone.
The movie database doesn't give users access to following other user's posting history and the posters there are the most educated and polite. It's like the best of IMDb went to the movie database while the mean argumentative stalky trolls came to movie chat and imdb2

I don't know. Maybe it has something to do with you invoking Ben in Soapbox out of thin air, and him conveniently replying after 2 months of silence. Call me suspicious. You came on this site much later than he went away, and yet you not only know about him but are starting threads about him. I hope that answers your question. If all this was a coincidence, just put me on ignore and get it over with.
shareLol and you probably fabricated this ridiculous theory after stalking my posting history. You're stupid.
That's why I say allowing posters access to another poster's posting history is a tool for stalkers.
And what I wrote above is the reason why we need to see poster's history, to know what to expect.
shareThe theory you created about me was completely far fetched.
No you don't need to read someone's posting history in order to respond to what they write. You're just making up tired excuses for stalking someone.
I've already told you of a movie message board that doesn't have posting histories on profile and people get along just fine. They don't antagonize each other. Their arguments take their course and resolve itself right there in the thread or left on the board it started at because there is no tool to help that angry person follow the other person into other boards to harasses them. Or do what you're doing, starting rumors.
I'm not getting into debates over this. Anyway, seems you're in minority that wants poster's history removed. I've seen that suggestion before, and it usually came from those posters who have something to hide.

Hi Ben. How are things in Troll-land?
It's called troll surveillance, Ben. Not stalking.
[deleted]
Look at how many more problems are occurring all because an asdhole read someone posting history and is starting false rumors.

ZeroDarkDirty is definitely Ben

What did i say about stalkers? What if this Ben person is deliberately posting my threads there to confuse you?
Ignored for stalking.
dont bother, you are going to get banned eventually
shareYou are Varadero8, a racist stalk-troll. Reported.
sharestalking? more like exposing
Varadero8? just because our names are similar? try harder
stalk exposing is cool. i should do it more
shareOnly one slight problem.
We all now know who you are and exactly what it is you're doing. Same tired tactics: attacking and lying about others who expose you.
*yawn*
You do realize there are now formal rules on this site, which specify once a user is banned -- which you have been, many times -- they (meaning you) can't create new user names, mask IPs, or otherwise take actions to escape said ban.
Buh bye, Ben.

Lying yet again, little bennie. Your whole life is trolling and lying.
" I am a legitimate user"
That's funnier than Mel Brooks.
See ya, bennie. Don't let the doorknob hitcha where the good lord splitcha
[deleted]
Let's list the qualities of little bennie, shall we?...
1. Scared little crybaby
2. Useless troll
3. Pathological liar
4. Soon to be banned again.
[deleted]
I started this thread and i am confused about what exactly is going on
shareOf course it is. Likely so is Terrygg. Little bennie has absolutely nothing else to do with his life than create endless socks to troll. See, ya, bennie. You'll be banned again soon.
shareI'm not a troll but you definitely are a stalker.
shareHaven't answered you anywhere but these threads. Busted again, lying little bennie-poo. Try again, turdo.
shareNaps, I'm not down with the name-calling, but otherwise you're of course right.
Stalking means following someone to other threads they've posted in and harassing them. Taking a look at someone's posting history /= stalking, lol!
But then even Ben & His Socks knows that and is simply using his same worn-out tactics, in the vain hope someone might not know any better.
The thing is you cannot avoid them because your posting history is on display for anyone to use it to do anything they like. The function of posting history doesn't have positive results at all.
I think it should be removed.
On Imdbarchive.com you can hide your posting history from other users. Jim should do it here.
Yeah. That's a great idea.
share[deleted]
Because i should be comfortable at any forum I post at.
Why do you need to stalk someone's posting history? That's the main question.
[deleted]
If you've nothing to hide why would you?
Who do you think you are, the China government?
Well this isn't about secrets. This is about stopping cyber bullies and stalkers.
You don't need to read anyone's posting history because it's none of your damn business which boards we post on. share
"This is about stopping cyber bullies and stalkers."
No it's not, It's about you whining and crying because you can't troll anymore, bennie
And you've proven yourself to be a stalking bully that has nothing better to do than study people's posting history so that you can bully then.
Posting histories are useless. They need to be removed.
[deleted]
Where would the world be if nobody voiced their concerns. I am trying to help stop stalkers and bullies. What are you doing?
share[deleted]
LOL, of course it's about secrets. You just didn't like it that Apris exposed your not only knowing, but posting about BenCaesar and then, what do you know? Months after his being banned, he revived his banned account and replied to you.
Aww, too bad. I can see why you wouldn't want transparency.
[deleted]
Lying and attacking those who expose you isn't going to work, Ben. Or accusing them of the things you do.
share[deleted]
You're an idiot if you think I am Ben. Lol
This is the exact reason why posting histories are useless. I believe Ad min would know who Been is. Why Don't you report him for being Ben? Oh wait you can't because the person that you think is Ben hasn't broken the TOS.
Stupid.
If you've nothing to hide why would you?
And that is the million dollar question, except we already know the answer to it ;) share
Yup. Bennie's getting desperate again; he always tries to flip other's posts when he does. And always fails like the useless troll he is.
share[deleted]
Desperate or desperately bored ;). Yeah, that's what he always does, and people always see through it.
shareYep. Have to admit his fake outrage and BS accusations are hilarious sometimes. They get funnier as he gets more desperate. But make no mistake; he's nothing but a gigantic waste of oxygen.
sharestop talking to yourself. do you have no friends? lol
shareTalking to myself...hmmm..you mean like you do constantly, little bennie-turd? Sorry; don't do that. That's your specialty. Nice but desperate try.
share[deleted]
So why are you arguing with a troll? Why don't you take your own advice and USE IGNORE. Hmm?
shareI never advised anyone to use ignore. I sad to ignore them. Big difference, but then someone as stupid as you wouldn't grasp it. You're too busy trying to keep all you socks straight, little bennie-turd
shareStupid stalker s.
Apparently all that studying of my posting history and you still don't know what you're talking about.
Useless posting history feature. All it does is promote stupid stalkers.
"That's why I say allowing posters access to another poster's posting history is a tool for stalkers"
Again, if you feel that way, don't post here. Simple. Bye.
I'm gonna get rid of that feature and you're going to help me do it by proving how the feature does more harm than good. I'll make you the example.
So enjoy stalking me for as long as it lasts. Follow me onto another board and I guarantee that you'll hang yourself. Stupid.
Aw, poor wittle bennie-troll... Wha' happen? Your shiny new little BS call-out thread got deleted!
Gonna cry some more now?
Yup. Exactly.
shareI'm just going to let the moderators deal with the trolls. I'm not going to waste my time going through someone's posting history.
