thats an insult to twinkies, they much smarter then he is

You can trace his ISP cant you? That way you can complain about his behaviour and hopefully get his account terminated, he broke a ToS issue that I know alot of ISP's have.

He's been doing this at my school.

I'm trying to convince my teachers to prohibit him from accessing all school computers altogether (he's already been banned in my US history teacher's classroom for searching for porn on the school server. What an idiot. :roll: )

Is it possible to send to me some of the threads he has created?

The school is going to need some evidence to prove to them that it is really him.

He created 24 threads saying "Joey is Gay!"

21 of them had no replies, so I decided to delete them; no record remains of them.

The other three had replies, so I decided to lock them.

My IP scan says that you and "Joesisgay" are posting from the same IP address.

That's because he's been doing this at my school, which is where I sometimes get on NationStates along with Guanyu.
Unfortunately I'm getting an error that the topics no longer exist, however I will print out this topic so that I may have a piece of evidence.

I'm going to also backtrack through my records to see if one of his previous spam topics is in there. I will not rest until his internet privileges at the school are taken!

This spammer has also gone by the name "Ipitydafoo"

Acknowledged.

It looks like another moderator deleted the topics. If testimony from a site official is acceptable to your school officials, then ask your school officials (teachers, principal, deans, whatever) to look at this thread. They may E-mail admin@nationstates.net if they need confirmation that I am, indeed, a Forum Moderator.

I testify, as a NationStates Moderator, that the nation "Joesisgay" created 24 threads while I was online and reading the forums. All 24 were titled "Joey is Gay!". I deleted 21 of those topics and locked three others (although it appears that another moderator later deleted those three topics as well). According to another post earlier in this thread, Forum Moderator Sirocco deleted another 30 topics by the same nation; I cannot personally testify to this, but I completely trust Sirocco's word.

This spammer has also gone by the name "Ipitydafoo"

According to my IP scans, that nation also posted from the school IP address.

I saved some of his previous posts and I will take them to the network Admin at our school. (I'm particularly incensed about this because I AM "Joey".) I will also take it to the Librarian as he has been doing most of this from the school library I believe.

Although you did a right thing to stop someone from taking adantage of the school and use it to do bad stuff over the net, don't be too sensitive to what he calls you :wink:

Actually it isn't what he calls me that irritates me so much, it's that he actually has the nerve to ask me to borrow things and use my computer, etc. after he does it.
