Serious question about harassment
So, some asshole on here just sent me an incredibly nasty PM that has nothing to do with anything I posted. It is a really scary personal attack, and I am sitting here with my hands shaking. I've never had this happen on here before.

How do I report them?

No joke -- I'm serious.

8. No sarcasm intended.
Thought you posted enough to know who to contact for such a serious problem. Best of luck to you.

5. You can hit alert on a PM.
I'd also contact Skinner, if it's truly scary.

I just sent you a PM btw.

15. Correspond in a friendly manner with the offender.
Get their address. THEN, you can slash their fucking tires.
