Skin crawl 8 Years, 10 Months ago Karma: 12
So this morning I woke up feeling sick, which usually happens if something bad is about to happen. I've always been like that since I was a kid, so anyway I checked my emails and such this morning and this person PMed me on FFN asking if I do requests. I was polite and asked what he possibly wanted me to write about. He said a Fox News anchor ( for those outside the U.S. It's a conservative news station). That wasn't the issue what he wanted to happen to her is. I can't post the exact details since there are minors lurking about on here, but it made my skin crawl. Anyone else have this happen to them? If so what do I do? Sorry if this isn't allowed on this board, but I figured this was the best one to post this in. This whole thing has me unnerved.

Off-topic is an appropriate place to post, and I'm glad you did not include details, as the rules state that all public areas of the site are to be kept K-rated.

To answer your question, report him to the mods (but don't expect much of a response) for sexual harassment, then block him. Whatever you do, do not respond to him further... that just encourages those people.

I'm sorry that happened to you. I know several of our authors have been approached by others for 'requests' or 'co-authoring' (which usually means write their story for them). It's not unusual, but that he would go into suggestive detail is a new one.

I didn't really mind the request thing, just what he wanted was disturbing to say the least. I contacted the mod about it just five minutes ago, which I'm sure they have a lot to deal with. It was just creepy. Thanks for the advice!

Yeah, eye-bleach moments.

Major squick.

You did the right thing.

I didn't think anyone else used the phrase Major squick! I am SO happy I am not the only one.

LOL,

When you write fanfiction, get PMs from odd people, and regularly surf the net. You get an in-built Squick-O-Meter ranging from Mildly Disturbing but tolerable to full-blown OMG! WTF was that?

The spine-tingles, O_o surprised eyes, and brain-bleach moments are indicators that something isn't quite right there.

Trust your Squick-O-Meter.

It's always spot-on.

Best thing I have seen all day! Honestly I think everyone has a built in Squick-O-Meter but when you surf the net (even with censors) you see things even eye bleach/brain bleach can't remove. -shakes head-
