Thanks for the advice. I have his original IPs, and then a second list of Proxy sites which he used to create fake accounts and also post abusive posts (I had IP-banned him). Presently, the forum is locked down to new registrations until I can find a way to stop this guy from coming back.

I don't have his physical address, so not sure how I could get a letter delivered. Perhaps some kind of tool exists to bait him into giving me his geo coordinates?

The supervisors are not too pleased with getting 10-15 emails this morning, with a PDF of my personal information and other harrassing information related to my work for the site, which takes place off-work.

One user of my website, a girl that one morning decided that it was very clever to undress on cam got a guy that kept on mailing her bosses, her family and so on. It caused no end of trouble. Your bosses are essentially blaming the victim, it's a real pity that understanding of these matters is limited until you are typically hit by it yourself.

The fact that they assign any value to this at all is certainly worrisome.

If you send me an email privately (jacques@mattheij.com) with what information you currently have on the guy then I may be able to give you a hand (no promises though).
