Today I blocked a user for making legal threats. See
User:Gordy and
Vandalism in progress. Since doing that I have received two emails
threatening to take me to court
"You claim to have banned me for threatening wiki with legal action. at
no time did I do this. I may well have suggested that to personal users,
including yourself, and believe me, I am serious in my threat, so
serious in fact that I already have draft writ produced in the time that
I have waited on you getting back to me."
He goes on to write
"The whole impression that you have created of me is derogatory,
defammatory and extremely distressing. Such actions can be remedied
legally, and believe me, I you continue to push me on this one, you
better have a good lab technicians salary, because I'll take you
personally to the cleaners. Your actions can be addressed by way of writ
for interdiction/ and or damages, because on at least two counts you
have interfered in a matter which I did not believe was any concern of
yours."
And in a separate email he writes:
"Having secured wiki's legal owners, I shall then be compelling them by
order of court to provide me with the full names and addresses of the
individuals who have attacked me on this unbelievable place, whereby I
can raise personal actions against those individuals without harming
wikipedia."
Duh !
So it's not just me, he intents to sue others as
well. There is actually
a lot more but it's mostly just rant.
1) Was I right to block him or did I act too hastily?
You were just correct.
2) Should I respond to his email or ignore it?
I would probably answer and try to cool him off :-)
(3. I've just typed ~~~~ instead of my name does
this mean I'm a
wikiaddict?)
