    OT: maybe we should also start a list where red-flag-raising people go.

    Like complete newcomers soliciting for money and free tails, telling sob stories no one can verify, and then totally flipping tables and claiming they are being harassed or cyber-crimed when not immediately getting their way.

    Sssshh Echidna! Stop or she'll call you a cyber stalker too!
    Me personally, I said the truth and done nothing else. No scales off my tail. Life goes on.

    Based on all of your other comments on the site so far I'd like to strongly encourage you to search out a mental health forum instead. You made some argumentative and rude posts, and people replied to you correcting you, and now you're eluding that they're cyberstalking you. As you have already been told, there is no block function, so this may not be the forum for you.

    i just came from the show your tails thread and the blocking thread and i don't believe anyone is bullying you here. they are just telling the truth and helping you out. the way you responded to this was extremely unnecessary and rude.

    A local reporter wanted to take some pictures of me in my tail. We went to the beach where posed for him. While doing so, a woman, named Stacy, ran up to me and yelled "You're so sexy!" at me twice. She then went behind me and straddled my tail, apparently pretending I was her personal sex toy as I lay there on a public beach. I asked her to stop being abusive. She stopped touching me and let go of my fluke, came to my side and offered me a sip of her drink (predictably, the glass was empty, save for ice). As I don't drink (and wanted her to leave me alone), I declined.

    Ouch! I hope she left you alone after that.

    How'd you know her name? I gather she was (1) drunk and (2) known for nonsense like this.

    Something about seeing mers in costume tends to bring out the worst in people. I really wonder why.

    The guy who was photographing me for the local paper asked her.

    Collectors?

    Ok so I posted some photos of me in my tail on the mertailor private group last night. A lot of people liked it one person commented. But what is makeing me uncomfortable. Is I had one person like my page then send me a friend request, but the problem is I don’t know this person he hasn’t talked to me. He is not a mer and it looks like he has a few mers in his friends list.

    Would this guy qualify as a collector?

    I don’t mind adding people I’ve talked to and am comfortable with. but as it is my personal Facebook page I don’t want a bunch of strangers seeing everything I post every day.

    Ps: don’t know how to make a FB and instagram just for my mer self or I would have done that already!

    What do y’all think. The guy on face book is called Tony Pozos

    I've had requests from him too. Just ignore him. As for setting up FB and Instagram: on FB you can make a page, there are links all over it just takes some looking, or you can do a search on Google or in the FB bar. Instagram you have to get the free app and make a profile.

    Welp, after some good press lately I've been getting added by a whole ton of mers and freedivers on Facebook, though I have to kind of be careful not to go crazy with it as it's my personal Facebook they're adding, not my mermaid page. Lots of lovely people among them, and then the occasional strange one... Just got a request from Richard Straube, found mention of him on here and NOPE no thanks. Don't even want to message him first like I do with many folks to find out what he's adding me for, rather not be seen as a potential subject of foot/tail fetish.

    Honestly I tell people not to add anyone they don't know.

    Hey all, just encountered this guy on my personal instagram page. Just a heads up.
    I've been in a mood this past week and I'm really not feeling like dealing with merverts so I shut this down right away. Name:  Screenshot_20180810-000159_Instagram.jpg

    Ugh, got a friend request from Craig Bohn. Part of me nearly feels flattered to be getting added by my first well known collector/mervert, but of course thanks to you lot I will NOT be accepting that request.

    So totally random, but I gave an interview to a news agency a few weeks ago and it resulted in a lot of other agencies picking up the story. One thing that caught fire was the discussion around merverts.
