Some of you might already be aware that I had an issue last April with some idiot who pinged me on Yahoo and demanded that I write a Catherine/Greg fic for him, to his specifications, and called me an asshole when I politely refused.
Apparently this is his modus operandi and he's now moved into SG:A, and has already hassled two other people that I know of on my flist. He's also done this in Buffy and Smallville in the past.
As I said to![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
misssimm at the time and janissa11 since, I think he's finding people on the memberslist on yahoogroups for various mailing lists, since that very handily (rolls eyes) gives away not only your yahoo profile but also indicates if you're online or not. Plus, it means he can target his request to people who are at least reading fic.
So, be aware of his yahoo name - jeremycrawfordj2000 - and pre-emptively ban him if you need to from your messenger service, particularly as he gets abusive. And if you run a mailing list you might think about removing him from it, at least under that username, because I've never seen him make a single onlist post in either CSI or SG:A. He's obviously just using the mailinglist information to troll and harass members to get them to write him fic.
[ETA: Do you think it would be okay to post something on this to![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
sga_noticeboard? I suppose it could fall under 'news'.]
