OK…so…here’s the story:
Years ago, I started playing a game. In that game, there was a guy who was a real…well, let’s just say he was an arrogant kid who had all day to sit around in his mom’s house, eat pizza and play games. He started a tiff with me, and picked at me for years.
Well in said game, I had made a lot of in-game friends (a few of whom are friends in real life now). One day after deciding I needed to be killed in-game for something (my toons were always gimp…i never exhaustively worked to be “uber”…he picked at me because of that), one of my buddies (who was a gaming god) came in and wiped him up in his own city in the game…over and over…for being an arrogant punk…and this made him mad to no end.
Well, it’d be fine and dandy if he had matured and left it alone and forgot about it. This all happened 4-5 years ago. But since then, he and I still use the same Ventrilo server and I have to put up with the constant “I hope you die” and other incessant poking-at from him. I’ve talked to one of the guys who runs it, and they say “you need to work it out with him” and my reply was “i put him on perma-mute now…i don’t need to work with him”.
I’ve also ran into signing-up for other games that anytime his character names are registered, all the names that I used that he knew of (from the original game we both played) are registered as well. To me, this seems like he’s harassing me constantly with little things such as this.
Even others who are around have said “I’m surprised he hasn’t matured by now.” about him, and I’m getting sick of it. I’ve gathered enough data about him to know his name and that he lives in Canada (from what other people have said about him in passing in Vent).
Is there any recourse, if I can get the proof that emails he uses are what is tying up account names, for me to pursue harassment against him if he is in Canada?
To be honest, I’m not knowledgable about Canadian law. But, I’d love to win some sort of injunction against him that bars him from contact with me including through electronically means. In the United States, I could just gather enough proof then file in court and show that he has persistently gone and done things to harass me…and be awarded a court order. But, I’m not sure what to do in Canada.
So…anyone in Canada have any ideas? Anyone ever had to deal with this before?
