I really don’t blame you for it that you constantly dream about me and can’t stop your all too vivid fantasy to produce fairy tales about “where I live” and “who I am” etc… Yes, I can imagine that you are overwhelmed by my Cyber Presence in your empty life. Nevertheless… I would prefer if you would make someone else the victim of your online stalking and harassing. Read this as: stop spreading the complete nonsense of your all too vivid imagination on this message board. I’m confusing enough for people who struggle with deciphering my Unique Aldebaran’s English without your non-stop spreading of your fairy tales about a) Aldebaran “the Saudi” [http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?p=5455445&highlight=Saudi#post5455445](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?p=5455445&highlight=Saudi#post5455445) [http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?p=5062981&highlight=Saudi#post5062981](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?p=5062981&highlight=Saudi#post5062981) [http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?p=4881929&highlight=Saudi#post4881929](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?p=4881929&highlight=Saudi#post4881929) [http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?p=4705833&highlight=Saudi#post4705833](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?p=4705833&highlight=Saudi#post4705833) [http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?p=4665344&highlight=Saudi#post4665344](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?p=4665344&highlight=Saudi#post4665344) [http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?p=4647834&highlight=Saudi#post4647834](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?p=4647834&highlight=Saudi#post4647834) [http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?p=4558610&highlight=Saudi#post4558610](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?p=4558610&highlight=Saudi#post4558610) b) Aldebaran “the Belgian” [http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?p=5070692#post5070692](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?p=5070692#post5070692) [http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?p=5246231&highlight=Belgium#post5246231](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?p=5246231&highlight=Belgium#post5246231) [http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?p=5407735&highlight=Belgian#post5407735](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?p=5407735&highlight=Belgian#post5407735) [http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?p=5246231&highlight=Belgium#post5246231](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?p=5246231&highlight=Belgium#post5246231) [http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?p=5224906&highlight=Belgian#post5224906](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?p=5224906&highlight=Belgian#post5224906) [http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?p=4558610&highlight=Belgian#post4558610](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?p=4558610&highlight=Belgian#post4558610) These are only a few examples… I thought that you wouldn’t mind that I point out to you that your fixation on me and “where I live” or “what and who I am” is coming closer to a real and hence very unhealthy obsession by the day. To help you get rid of that addiction, maybe you could read the thread I made on the ATMB forum. I gave you the link to it a few days ago on GD. You can read there once again that my reality is not what your fantasy makes of it, and that no, so sorry for you, I do not advertise on a worldwide accessible and -read message board what my nationality and hence my homeland is, or where I am at a particular moment. This privacy I want to keep shielded off from everybody who has an internet access and stumbles about this message board includes the locations of the proxy IP’s or whatever other methods I use to have my member name logged in on this message board. Do you finally understand this? In addition: Do you need me to post a link to where you can read that spreading false information about and/or harassment of other members is a violation of the Rules of Conduct on this message board, or can you find that all by your own?

I like **Mehitabel** , though I disagree with her from time to time, but I too have noticed that she, in colloquial terms, has “a hard-on” for you, and it mystifies me. Is there some sort of vicious argument in your collective past, on which she’s dwelling? Or does she really dislike you for other reasons that don’t bear thinking about? ---

Wow. Is there really _more_ examples? I mean, that’s a LOT of showing up in the same threads (coincidence or otherwise) and “teasing.” Yikes! Surely, if for no other reason, requests to stop should have a bearing, yes? If you don’t bother them, then one would think that it wouldn’t be difficult to honor that in reverse. But I’m sure **Mehitabel** will be along shortly to explain what’s been going on from that end and why. Please won’t _someone_ think of the hamster’s, uh… privacy! 😉 Best wishes you two on working it out! P.S. Oh, and I agree with **SA**. Not only is your English improving, but I don’t think you even made an error at all in your impressively lengthy post. Good on you. ---

One’s specific life situation bears no weight on the merits of one’s arguments. I have been known to be a little paranoid myself, having in the past had my own stalkers (one in another message board). I am not calling Mehitabel a stalker, but it is disrespectful and unlike what this MB stands for to insist on disclosing, or trying to disclose, other members’ private information. YMMV and all that. ---

I use now more then in the past a bilingual engraved keyboard. Usually French(=Roman characters) and Arabic. 3. Of course writing a language improves your knowledge on an other, more practical level then when you only read it (which I do since a very long time). > [@jjimm](#): > > Is there some sort of vicious argument in your collective past, on which she’s dwelling? I can assure you that I have no “collective past” with someone posting anonymously on a message board. The problem for Mehitabel is that she desperately wants to know where I live. Don’t ask me why or why she so desperately insists on spreading her fantasies aout this. Like I said: this started since the very beginning of my posting history here. Everyone should know by now that my country -which was the country of my father and where I was born, where I live and where my whole family from father’s side lives is situated in the ME region and that my mother was EU citizen before she married my father. This however is for Mehitabel not enough to know about me. You ask her why because I can’t see any valid reason behind her intrusive, persistent and - as she knows very well - unwanted curiosity.

I have nothing to seek a “cease fire” for. I am not the one who is constantly following and harrassing an unknown person on a public message board. Secondly: I do not start a private correspondence with an unknown woman. Third: Even if I was inclined to do this and I then can use secure email and it is also only in case of a very serious emergency that somebody could try to ask to take a look behind my proxies, and I even don’t have to use my own channels for sending mails, I nevertheless never shall send any email from no matter where to a woman who so desperately seeks to find out “where I am”.

Really, if **Aldebaran** were to spark some sort of relationship with anyone, it would obviously be **newscrasher**. I mean, we don’t know who one of them is, we don’t know where one of them lives, it’s the original Odd Couple!
