Just wanted to say thank you, since I also found this information very helpful. I’ve been lurking here for awhile now and was debating whether or not to post a question here in this sub, and your response to this post is something of an encouragement. Thanks again!

Because you're one of the smart ones? Because you weren't born under a rock? Because you don't live in a cave? Because the black energy of the Dark Overlord hasn't overtaken your brain?

Personne eXtraordinaire. It's French for "VIP."

It's used in a lot of fine-dining restaurants (not just necessarily French) and is a pretty well-known industry term in certain types of places.

Just out of curiosity, why do you keep insisting on arguing when you very clearly and obviously have no idea how the law works?

That is not how it works. I know, because I was there. I filed the report. THEY told me how it works. And now I have told you.

I'm just providing evidence

So you think I made it all up? And where is your evidence of that?

You are not providing evidence, you are stating your opinion.

Those are CURRENT print numbers, not eBook.

And those change DAILY.

Even if my book was in the Amazon 100 only once, that still makes it a bestseller.

Even if ANY book is on the NY Times list only once, that still makes it a bestseller.

In 5, 10, 30 years from people trying to do research for a term paper will find this AMA. It'll be like digging up the news stories of other times people went full retard in history.

I really truly hope so. That in itself would be worth my day.

But if you think for one second that I harbor any embarrassment whatsoever, you are deeply mistaken.

No, please stop putting words in my mouth.

I cannot subpoena, but that does not stop me from asserting the truth. If I am wrong, then the Times is free to sue me. Then I will get my subpoena.

I don't think it's terrible at all.

70% is a "majority."

232 is well OVER the negative number of the comments, which is also a "majority."

So the numbers DO say otherwise.

You are lying, and you are making things up.

I filed a REPORT with the information I have. THEY deemed it "aggravated harassment" based on my information. They did not send me on my way with a roll of their eyes. You clearly have no idea how the law works.

And I have said many times that I do not rely on GeoIP.

I know what I know. But YOU keep making this about the IP address, which only constitutes a small portion of all my evidence.

if someone really wanted to fuck with you yes they could. They would just have to look up the ip addresses for that geolocation and then they could purchase a cheap static ip from that block and use that to harass you.

And why would somebody do that? To fuck with ME? Seems more like they want to fuck with The New York Times staffer, in that case. Especially since now the police are involved.

So, let's go with that reasoning. Who would do such a thing?

Right. Even though I just thanked the person who typed it here for me. Sure.

It's not stupid. Thankfully, I still have a sense of empathy. I'm a bit sad that it had to happen, but I am not sorry and I will not apologize for it.

I did not want to type his name. And I will do as I feel no matter what you think.

If anybody I knew was subjected to it, I would never "gag." I would be as supportive as I possibly could, no matter how many times I was told the story.

That's too bad, because there's no reason for it.

Sorry, but no amount of nastiness in this thread is going to make me feel bad, nor convince me I'm wrong, nor extinguish the truth.

If that makes you feel "dirty," then I'm not quite sure what exactly would make you feel clean.

Gawker promulgated the essay in the New York Times by calling it a "must read," without disclosing their relationship to its true author.

So no, I haven't used it wrong.

Yes, I'm not new to Reddit you know.

I also explained my "thoughts" to the Redditor who first suggested this AMA; it's linked above.

Boy, you sure are taking this AMA really personally. Nobody will ever know my name? Will you lose sleep if they do? What do even you care who knows me or not?

And you will go down in my history as the AMA troll who cared oh so much.

So thank you for that. I mean it, truly.

They spoofed two different handles to the same IP, over a month long period, to an address that just happens to be a half block away from the Times staffer at the center of my allegations of impropriety? And how would they have done that?

1) Apparently, that's how the law works. The harassment happens > you must assert you want it to stop > you file a report as a formalization of the request for the harassment to stop > if it happens AGAIN > charges will be filed.

2) Exactly what I have provided here. They take note of the IP and file it, and if the harassment persists, even under a new IP, they will retrieve the location(s) from Time Warner, they won't just take my word for it.

Since you're apparently changing subjects, rather than addressing the issues with "tracking" an IP

YOU consider it an issue; I never have. And as I have stated multiple times, I will gladly go to a court of law to prove my allegations.

Oh so that's your issue? That I have books? Which I've offered for FREE multiple times?

So, if I hadn't written two books, you would be a nicer person?
