Yeah he's a nice guy, he's never been inappropriate it just kind of gets annoying when he starts harassing you with multiple messages

MI beg to ask your friendship because you are a very beautiful woman, and I will follow some time I see you always wonderful and fatal than ever I do not want to give you trouble, but I would like the honor to call your friend thankshttps://www.facebook.com/ajax/mercur...176&height=176
i am questioning why some italian grandpa is going around liking chinese groups... i'm also questioning how he knows how to play mass effect...
I am getting friend requests and messages from a Tim Dorfschmidt in Germany on my FB page. He is friends with several of my mer friends, but I know nothing about him. He says he 'likes Mermaids'.... :rolleyes: Anyone recognize him, and/or have any info - do I want him for a friend?
Ok so I'm not sure if he would be considered a mervert or not since he seems nice enough but I've been getting quite a few messages from him lately, do any of you know Michael Santi on Facebook?
I had him (Michael Santi) friended for a while, but then he said he was taking time off, and someone else would be 'running' his page, so I unfriended him. He seemed fairly innocuous, a bit annoying because he was always asking his friends to go like someone's page, or talking about TV shows I don't watch, but otherwise harmless.
Yeah I don't have him added as a friend but he liked my page and comments on EVERYTHING
he just told me off in my other messages for not adding him as a friend... lol
I keep forgetting to look in my other messages!
they're hilarious. After merfesr my mervert count went up in such a huge way.
Another hit on Stevie Smith here! He sent me a friend request, a poke and a msg asking if we could be friends and after I told him that my facebook is for friends and family only he got all funny about it and has banned me from the mermaids are the best group. Here's screenshots:

I've also had a guy who I quickly deleted a friend request from, reported one of his photos (to no avail, great job fb) and blocked him, but his profile is quite public and is entirely 'looking for single mermaids' posts and sexually explicit images of people having sex underwater etc. I have a feeling this guy could end up attempting to add minors within the community and he just all-round gave me a bad feeling. His name was Marc Fauve. Just wanted to give a heads up and see if anyone's had any issues with him.
I've had dealings with Michael Santi in the past and he seems mostly harmless if a bit clueless at times. He wanted to help promote my page and was commenting on everything I posted for a little while.
Tim Dorfschmidt added me after merfest before I really cracked down on who I was accepting and he sent me a series of msgs in very broken english, getting kinda abrupt with me and I ended up having to try to direct him to the fanpage using google translate but he still was trying to say he 'is my friend' and in the end I had to block him. I can provide screen shots of the conversation if needed but he seems harmless, just a collector with language barrier issues. Maybe slight hints of creepiness but probably just down to social issues not understanding that me accepting a friend request does not make us 'real life friends'

Wow! You have to seriously be careful with people now days! Ive heard about cases like this. Im glad this was brought to my attention. Be careful ladies!

Steve has been around forever stealing mermaid photos. He's had multiple banned FB accounts,
we've had threads on here and mer yuku inthe old days.
after merfest I had all the merverts come out of the woodwork to try and add me, and all the collectors

However will I manage...? lol I'm sorry but stealing from the community for years and then inventing friendships in your head does not = be my friend.

I feel like I'm on mermaid Tinder....

does anyone know anything about this guy? He added me during the merfest haze and I checked his priofile and we had loads of people in common. His introduction to me just seemed, um, odd...? Attachment 26556
Uuugggghhhh this stuff is making me seriously wary of ever making a mermaid account when I finally get my tail... I get crazy anxiety when I'm approached by people like that. Just reading all the creepy comments you get, Raina, is making my stomach knot up. x-o
Like, how does anyone even respond to half of these...
I don't. and then they flip shit.
I kind of feel bad. I'm a guy, I'm gay and I get almost nothing. Like, it's really quiet. :confused:
Not that I'm complaining though but still... Not even an official hater yet!
So far it's going well but then I wonder what to think of the situation. :thinks:
Perhaps I just think too much. *shrug*
That's actually kind of surprising, Arion! You've got such a big fan base I figured you'd be getting tons of creepy messages from overly-friendly fanboys and girls. :P
this is how women are treated on the internet in general. http://www.buzzfeed.com/rossalynwarr...ent#.myOJYKdk4
You and me both!Quote:

Does that make sense? :doh:
what i have noticed (i don't suggest you do this, this is completely up to you) is that i've posted pictures of me and my husband or my wedding photos.
What you COULD do is post a PDA picture as your profile pic. You and your mertender or something. havent gotten contacted at all since.
load sof sean and I all over my page it never stops em lol
not enough.
PDA *chanting*
P.D.A!
P.D.A!
Sean says we've reached January quota... ;)
omgee i love the second image. squee <3
My page got hit with Chris Perry. So far, pretty innocent messages, and he pointed out that I don't cover enough mermen in my facebook page. No issues yet. The girls on my page are asking for more mermen as well.
Feel free to share my pictures from my page. That should help :)Quote:

Wow...I am glad I am not on facebook, twitter, tumblr, etc. I have had someone say something mean to me before on the internet. It was on Deviantart. The comment really ruined my day, but then I decided that I would reply in a very kind way telling that person to have a nice day or something like that. They didn't reply back. I like the idea of killing people with kindness. I just don't see why some stranger would be mad at you for not replying to them or friending them.Quote:

Tried searching through this thread, but has anyone received a message from a "Christian Horsting".....tried being polite at the start and literally after 2 replies from me, I got this really large text wall, which looks like a poem but doesn't rhyme at all.
ye, I have him on my list.Quote:

I got some quite annoying novel-sized textings from him, but after a while (I'm very seldom online) he found better things to do, and I've only received nice comments and likes from him since.
Cristopher Perry pm:d me on facebook this morning. Nope, won't happen.
Hi I'm a merman and wish we could be mer friends
And I'm now getting tons of messages on my page from Christopher Perry -_-
Just got messaged by Chris perry as well
Merman week is going well! Thanks, Arion! The girls love you!
Also, Chris Perry is still being harmless, he's just grateful that I'm covering mermen in my topics on my fb page. I'll let you know if he gets out of hand.
^This is the reason why I don't have a mermaid account. It sucks though. I'd love to be mermaid-friends with all of you lovely people.Quote:

I'd say try it, block the creepers, and enjoy having a mer account. :)
