What you write is interesting. But I have found that the best "protection" for anyone's sanity on "Plop" is to just "scroll by" any posters you feel might be offensive. I have realized that I cannot ever change anyones political views or how they view this or that issue. So I stick to what I thought was the original intent of of this site. Horse Racing. I enjoy looking at others picks as well as posting my own. But if you find anyone who might offend to you, just put on "Ignore" or "scroll by" their posts. I will admit i've lost interest in the personal attacks between folks. But there seems to be a long history of rancor between certain "plopsters". I don't know the history. So I don't engage. Best you don't either.
Speak for yourself. It's a social club Dougie. It's not for everyone all the time. And everyone here is not for everyone if they're sensitive. The day it changes it's not PLOP. Leave the rest to ADMIN, because for most all of us...membership, is revocable.

As in anything that King Midas Trump touches it turns to shit, ends up losing, convicted, divorced, total failure and always seeking to blame someone else.
He's a watch and see, not and never an invest in.
If history hasn't taught you that, you'll never learn, so learn the hard way, like others that have even died foolishly for his lies....
He's a Garbage pail being, like his family and Chihuahua Cock Karen here who spreads his unholy gospel 
The Kennedy Center is another 'shining example' of this!

You're right with one exception. I'm actually out here as me. These people have gone so far as to contact family members, one fat scumbag who I will leave nameless friend requested my daughter a few years ago. It used to actually bother me, now it's just reminds me how desperate they are to stop me. Four years now they've tried? How's that worked out for them. Not a one has ever approached me directly either.

Yup, that's the one - I had to go back to that thread because that nickname eluded me.
You and I have a photogenic memory in this place

14 years like brothers. Rarely did we even talk racing other than when I would congratulate him and remind him he earned it. But not until I was thrown out of Goshen for complaining about ice and I was LOUD about it did he start to poke at me. I didn't realize who he was connected with and they pressed him. Not my problem, and as I've said many times I do get it. They could have made life a mess for him and that would have cost him a TON of money. People say I talk about him? You reap what you sow, and I've been pretty good not saying too much. Another comment that stands out was his wife telling me at New Street Lounge after I had a win first start back training after over a decade that "stop it's just one win Petrelli". Jason was very happy for me though. As I always was for him. And, here we are now.

Horse looked ok on the front a month ago and went down. We will see, back in to go.

What does an outrider have to do with anything? ?
Outrider is there to communicate with/help the driver when a horse is uncontrollable, or showing signs of distress, etc. They also can communicate with officials if they see something going on, or chase after loose horses.

And yes, once the ball is rolling law enforcement can seize your devices. I find it FUCKING HILARIOUS people who talk endless shit about others CRY when they are found out. Well....it's happening fuckers. Here's just a few tid bits. Sound like any of you here? As for horseplop.com hiding offshore, not a problem.
Anonymous cyber harassment can include:
Repeated insulting, threatening, or degrading messages
Fake accounts used to stalk, bait, or provoke
Posting or spreading false statements (defamation)
Doxxing threats (sharing or threatening to share private info)
Coordinated pile-ons using burner accounts
Impersonation or fake profiles meant to damage reputation
The anonymity is often intentional—it lets the harasser escalate without immediate consequences.
Why people do this
Common motivations include:
Power & control – anonymity creates a sense of dominance
Retaliation or obsession – especially when they feel criticized or exposed
Disinhibition – people say things online they would never say face-to-face
Ideological or personal grudges – activism, politics, or personal disputes often trigger this
Fear of accountability – they know their behavior wouldn’t survive daylight
This behavior is about them, not about anything you did “wrong.”
Is it illegal?
It can be—depending on conduct and jurisdiction.
Often illegal or actionable:
Credible threats of violence
Stalking or harassment campaigns
Defamation (false statements presented as fact)
Impersonation
Doxxing or invasion of privacy
Even when individual messages seem “minor,” patterns matter legally.
What you should do (important)
1. Preserve evidence
Screenshot everything (include usernames, timestamps, URLs)
Save messages in original format if possible
Keep a simple timeline
2. Don’t engage
Responding often escalates behavior and helps them justify it
3. Report strategically
Platform reports (X, Meta, etc.)
If threats or stalking exist: local law enforcement
Civil route: an attorney can subpoena platforms to unmask anonymous users
4. Lock down your digital footprint
Tighten privacy settings
Remove easily searchable personal details
Use two-factor authentication everywhere
Can anonymous harassers be identified?
Yes—despite what they think.
Through:
IP logs and metadata
Platform account records
Subpoenas or court orders
Patterns linking anonymous and known accounts
Anonymity online is conditional, not absolute.
Emotional reality (this matters)
Being targeted anonymously:
Feels unfair and destabilizing
Creates constant vigilance
Can bleed into real-world stress
That reaction is normal. What’s happening to you is not trivial, and it’s not “just the internet.”

I'll never forget "I was gonna send my Trooper friend from crossfit to teach you a lesson". And then the next day was begging me to get in his Jag so he could explain. Nope.
