    start small take on Fark first-it'ls like 4chan but not as scary(and well failing that isn't so bad)-heck I'm 34 and won't go near 4chan-I both fear and respect them, equal parts fear/respect.

    her parents should've paid attention to internet safety tips. At least all she did was anger 4chan, she could have gotten into a ton worse trouble being unsupervised.

      Now, I will admit the Jessi Slaughter incident was bad on her part b/c she pretty much dug herself a grave by provoking people. What I don't get is why people don't have a problem with the 4chaners finding her personal information and prank calling/stalking her. That has to be some sort of electronic crime. I'm sorry, but once you resort to a crime, no matter what someone said to you on the Internet, you deserve all the wrath law enforcement can give you.

        Way to miss the point. -.- I meant that at any age it's bad enough, but at age eleven it's the equivilent of covering yourself in meat juice and jumping into the tiger cage.

          True. But you missed the part where I said she didn't directly challenge them, but that one of her videos was linked on 4chan. She never set foot on the site.

            Its still stupid to challenge people on the internet claiming they can't hurt you.

              True enough, but I checked out her entry on Encyclopedia Dramatica and watched her videos. She shouldn't have been allowed in the first place to have a flipping webcam at her age, let alone to tell random strangers that she fucks til she bleeds. If it hadn't been 4chan, it would have been a group of random trolls jumping on that.

              A better example of someone railroaded by the internet would be Mosh Girl (Moshzilla) All she did was simply get her freak on a little too enthusiastically, and loads of people took her photo and ran with it.

                Thats not that bad, they aren't personal attacks or anything. I think what Lue did to JustShana's live journal would be a better example of a completly undserived attack. In that case a girl who had committed suicide had her live journal changed to a memorial page by her parents and members of Lue attacked it by posting offensive messages.

                  I think Boxxy was a better idea of how the internet can freak someone the hell out, to be honest.

                    Who? Never heard of that meme, could you link me, please?

                    Personally, regarding Mosh Girl, I always wondered who the Horrified Guy was. XD He was just as photoshopped, but never identified himself.

                      I wouldn't step into the lion's den (4chan) to get more info on her, though. She's still kind of a sore subject over there.

                        Wow, that boxxy did something so tremendous with something so simplistic. She's either an idiot savant or a rare real-life female form of a Magnificent Bastard.

                          I only dip into 4chan periodically; and I certainly wouldn't butt in and ask about their targets. XD Just asking for trouble.

                            That is the thing with 4 Chan. Typically if they go after somebody its after that person does some sort of trolling themselves. Its totally possible she was playing a role in a game that she made.

                              Hmm, I wonder if she was a real-life Lain Iwakura...
