"don't swat it"

very apt

I think this is important from Justine's post - it wasn't someone from the 3000 list.

Not at all surprising. Far easier to identify a MNer in RL from their twitter or Facebook accounts, rather than from a usename/pword/ipaddress combo...

Lweji · 21/08/2015 15:37

I thought you had done it as a joke.

I think what arkko meant was that he picked on who caused him the most rage, or the most stand out person. To teach her a lesson. But it could be a coincidence if her details were easy to pick up.

I hope there's a MNetter on the team going after him.

Simurgh · 21/08/2015 15:41

I would guess that the team, in particular Justine after her own experiences, are taking a very close personal interest in that one Lweji.

StephanieBeacham · 21/08/2015 15:42

I was just trying to say that interacting with him like that obviously is what causes him to persue the swat attacks

Uh...I don't think you can say that. Sorry I did say I wouldn't post but honestly? Please can MNHQ take down some of these daft posts, they are so unhelpful.

Lweji · 21/08/2015 15:42

I meant the police.

Arkkorox · 21/08/2015 15:48

Lweji that's exactly what meant

ItsAllGoingToBeFine · 21/08/2015 15:53

Heads up on twitter...

Rudawakening · 21/08/2015 15:53

MNHQ he has just tweeted something about Justine Roberts Dox released but no link or anything.

ItsAllGoingToBeFine · 21/08/2015 15:54

It's on his website and not very impressive

Tiredemma · 21/08/2015 15:55

Has address and kids schools

ItsAllGoingToBeFine · 21/08/2015 15:56

and kids schools

Well, it has a list of three primary schools that her kids may or may not attend...

StephanieBeacham · 21/08/2015 15:56

Remember no one click on it, he's hoping for lots of attention. It sounds boring anyway? Smile

Tiredemma · 21/08/2015 15:57

Ah- I just saw schools.

StephanieBeacham · 21/08/2015 15:58

I'm sorry for losing my rag arkko - my own posts are probably the least helpful on here tbh.

ZingDramaQueenOfSheeba · 21/08/2015 15:59

Stephanie
Thanks

So he's found her home address from something like director check and listed the three closest primaries?

ItsAllGoingToBeFine · 21/08/2015 16:01

I'm sure it wouldn't be difficult to find Justine or what schools her children go to

I know, I was expecting links to her secret MN username that she uses to post about anal fissures and squeezing spots on DHs back
...

Everything in the "dox" is pretty much in the public domain. Pretty low using her kids though.

Did anyone else just notice my posts saying "withdrawn at posters request" and then coming back again?

YonicScrewdriver · 21/08/2015 16:08

Yes!

howtorebuild · 21/08/2015 16:08

Yes that happened to several posts. I assumed it was mnhq trying to protect info.

QueenStromba · 21/08/2015 16:09

Yeah, pretty much all of the dozen or so posts before and including mine went and came back in batches.
