For several years, I led a Free Company on the Goblin server, fostering a community of friends. During a temporary work assignment abroad, I entrusted leadership to an individual I had known for six years. Regrettably, this individual manipulated the FC's dynamics, resulting in a hostile environment. Upon being confronted, he resigned, forming a new FC with several members, accompanied by a disparaging public statement.
Subsequently, he initiated a campaign of harassment targeting remaining and new FC members, necessitating our collective migration to a new server. Despite multiple reports, blacklisting, and in-game mutes, this individual has persisted in his actions. He has located our new server, engaging in disruptive behavior such as leaving offensive housing messages, creating inflammatory Player Finder posts, and establishing a slanderous FC recruitment page using multiple alternate accounts, which are identifiable due to prior association.
This sustained harassment has created a severely distressing environment. We have documented and reported all incidents through official channels, both on the website and in-game. However, the harassment continues, with observed instances of this individual surveilling our housing areas. This has resulted in two FC members ceasing to participate in the game due to the emotional distress caused.
While the notion of 'living rent-free' in this individual's mind has been suggested, it provides no solace. We are deeply concerned about the ongoing nature of this harassment and its impact on our community's well-being and safety. We seek a resolution that will ensure the cessation of these disruptive and harmful actions, and yet nothing seems to be getting done.
I am open to any help or suggestions the community might have.
