Thought I'd paste info. on how to report abuse on here, since, when an abusive ex decided to stalk me, I found it very difficult to find the appropriate section of the Help Centre to report it to. There doesn't seem to be an emphasis/ policy on tackling this sort of behaviour here, as there is on other sites/ social networking sites. I saw one DA user complain that they were being told to kill themselves by other members and this was not deemed severe enough to warrant action. So I guess little/ nothing will be done about my situation, especially since I left it so long before acting (being terrified and very ill). Unfortunately the behaviours of abuse victims often leave them open to more abuse. Sigh.


If you wish to make an Abuse Report, it is under the Copyright and Etiquette Administration section, in the Help Centre initial menu. Kind of counter-intuitive if you ask me and I find it bordering on shocking that they do not have a separate section for abuse/ harrassment. Personal abuse/ harrassment is different from Copyright infringement and much more serious than a breach of ''etiquette''.

I love this site and it has been a haven for me for a long time and the thought that someone can come along and disrupt that is very distressing.
