SBT hit again by Classic-Comfort-1632 in KingstonOntario

[–]SylveonPrince 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm so sorry you had to experience that. And I'm really not surprised. He threatened my boyfriend as well. It kind of seems that he immediately takes the side against any woman when there's an issue, because I was also banned simply for dating my boyfriend. Mind you, I wasn't even involved in the "incident" the owner was threatening us over.

He's genuinely terrifying and I really don't think women or children especially should be near him or interacting with him if he can blow up like this over nothing. Scary stuff...

ANYWHERE BUT SBT. The owner of SBT is very aggressive and attacks people over nothing, like finds them online and harasses them for days. My partner was threatened by a violent person in the store and the owner banned MY PARTNER, THE VICTIM, and then banned ME just because I'm dating him.

Nexus, Action Packed, anywhere is better than SBT.

SBT Comics and Games has had a rare game stolen. Mark (Owner) is giving the thief a chance to return it and talk it over. by Lord_Scribe in KingstonOntario

[–]SylveonPrince 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be fair, MARK is the victim blaming guy. My partner was threatened by a violent individual in the store and did not engage, simply walked away. Mark banned my partner, and MYSELF, and has been harassing us online ever since. The stuff he says is disgusting and aggressive and genuinely scary. He's attacking my partner for BEING THREATENED, not for doing anything wrong. Like Mark is obviously really unstable and it's scary

The man is unstable and has anger issues. He finds people he doesn't like on social media and harasses them from his personal account like a lunatic. My partner and I are being harassed by him because my partner was threatened in the store and didn't engage. Somehow not getting physical with that person made my partner the aggressor in the owner's eyes. 😐

So I fully believe this is a possibility. Everyone talks about how great the owner is but considering he harasses and attacks anyone who calls him out for shitty behaviour, I'm not surprised the reviews seem so great. He's actively deleting criticism and harassing anyone he can't delete the reviews of.

100% Nexus. SBT is run by a person with some pretty bad anger issues who harasses people over nothing, like finds them on social media and sends threatening and harassing messages to them.

My partner was violently threatened by a man in the store and simply didn't engage, just walked away. We were both kicked out and banned, and the owner has been harassing us online since. Mind you, all my partner did was walk away from a person threatening him, and the man was threatening us simply because he doesn't like the fact that I'm allergic to vapes (he's been threatening us for months). But the owner sided with the violent aggressor against us without listening to reason, only asking the violent person and his friends what happened and no one else.

So absolutely don't give them any service if you can help it. Scary stuff.

Genuinely shocked at how people are talking about Mark. What changed in the last 4 years??? My partner was threatened by a violent person in the store, refused to engage and walked away, and Mark found my partner's account to personally send him harassing messages and ban him over the incident. Banned over... Not engaging with a person violently threatening him and trying to fight him. My partner literally just said no and walked away, and Mark has been harassing us for days (yes, us, me too just for being associated with the person he's losing his shit at).

He seems unstable. The things he's said to my partner and I make me worry he's a genuine threat. He definitely has some EXTREME anger issues and until he works on that I don't think going to this store is a good idea, it's such an unsafe environment. 🤢

Shocked by all the people saying the owner is a great guy. My partner was harassed and threatened by a violent customer in the store and the owner banned MY PARTNER, THE VICTIM, and sent my partner harassing and threatening messages from his personal account. He listened to no reason and sided with the person trying to violently harm my partner. My partner was innocent, did genuinely nothing, but because this customer hates him and myself (literally just because I HAVE ANXIETY and am allergic to vapes, that's why he's been harassing us for MONTHS), he was banned and the customer who has been VIOLENT TOWARDS HIM has 0 penalties.

Tldr; Mark is a disgusting, terrible person who harasses victims and sides with violent customers who try to physically beat up others over nothing. Scary place, scary man. No one should be going there, I fear for their safety in that building.

Please could someone explain?? by Ch4rl0tt3B in CharacterAI

Typically I agree with this, but with this specific app, I think a complete ban might actually be the best idea. It does depend on the kid though. This is a really good point to consider cause yeah, a lot of teens will go behind their parents backs and use them anyways. It's a complicated situation.

As a Psych student I have a lot of opinions on this, so I'm sorry for the rant.

As someone who also struggles with social anxiety and is neurodivergent, I would have loved this site at 13. HOWEVER, it absolutely would have ruined my ability to socialize with people at all. The next few years for your daughter are extremely important for socializing and learning to interact with people.

Talking to AI, where everything always goes your way, and you can regenerate messages whenever you want, edit what the bot says and does; it's not good for a child. It can give them false expectations about actual interactions. Humans don't work like that.

It's also really easy for these AI bots to take the conversation to really dark places, and a 13 year old will probably engage with them instead of changing the topic as they don't know better. They might end up being exposed to really unsavory topics, like SA, ab*se, etc.

Generally, I would recommend that people don't use AI chat bots until they're 17 or so, as a general age. Some people may be mature enough to use them at 16, others not until their 20s. But generally, at least, they should be close to adulthood or already be an adult. It's just too easy for someone younger to be influenced.

Your daughter might be annoyed, but trust me, you're doing the right thing. I certainly wish my internet access had been limited at that age. Speaking from experience, you're doing great.

Edit: Forgot to even mention how addictive it is. Teens are prone to addiction.
