Has anyone ever experienced strange or slightly inappropriate behavior from anyone through this forum?
Yesterday, at the top of the page, I found a user offering a penis size booster... I doubt you can say "weird behavior," but NoFap is definitely not the place to post such things. I flagged him, but he's still up there.
Twice I've had women contact me and eventually talking me into a relapse with masturbation. It threw me off my path but can't say that I wasn't a willing participant I've also been contacted by dudes who creeped me out or wanted to humiliate me. I never reported anyone. Ignoring them seems to do the trick.
This is awful! I’ve only had a few angry people message me but yeah ignoring them seems to work best.
It seems odd that someone would want to derail your progress. I have used the site before now, and never had anyone go out of their way to mess with me, other then random trolls trying to cherry pick posts to troll me. I consider line item quoting, or quoting while removing context to be troll tactics.
When I told my best friend (female) that I was doing NoFap she warned me that some women might try to derail me. She said they would get off on it. Of course it's not healthy. It's very selfish, manipulative and borderline sadistic on the their part, but I imagine they see it as sort of a conquest. One gained my trust and asked me what my triggers were. Then she started sending me porn images of that exact nature and asked me "Oh, you mean like this one" "Or, do you mean something more like this?" It was all downhill from there
Never experienced anything like that myself to be honest i have not been here that long so i doubt any trolls would find me. That sucks man i wish those people would leave nofap alone, i don't get it what type of people find satisfaction in trying to screw people's life over
Not yet, I have only been around here about a month. The only weirdness I've seen is in regards to some people that ask for help from a particular fetish that I also have. They often go into way too much detail, trying to make it erotic which ldeads me to believe they aren't that serious about stopping.
That's really awful to do. Never happened to me, but next time you should flag them to the moderators
Yes I've seen plenty of flirting, triggering images, and rule violations. I'm not innocent either - one time I absent-mindedly posted a video of female UFC fighters, and I had no intention for it to be sexual, but I can easily see how people would be triggered by it.
This is the internet after all, no forum is safe from trolls , but look on the bright side: so many more people just wanting to improve themselves.
I had a whatsapp nofal group that J was the leader of. I ended up losing my phone but when I got it back I went online and saw the group got hijacked by a bunch of people sending porn pictures to the whole group. Frickin dicks man.
What makes you think they were even women? I’ve seen women on this forum who have ‘male’ in their bio for obvious reasons, so I imagine trolls would do a similar thing. My wife has had weird messages from all sorts on this site but so far I’ve been lucky.
Man, stuff like this makes me so fucking angry. Where do these people get off hurting others? Perhaps they're in denial about their own sexual problems and see "reconverting" addicts in recovery as some sort of righteous crusade they can partake to make sure they never have to face their own issues. Maybe not, I don't know, but fuck them all the same. Just don't let it get to you, and don't trust people so easily; especially online. If you can't see someone's face you don't know if they're who they say they are. I count myself lucky never having had to deal with people like this.
A guy who I was talking to was asking very specific questions about my fetishes and sexuality and was telling me fake stories of his relapses.
please do report everything you find offensive and improper on this platform. this platform is not only for nofap and no pmo but also for better mental health as well. May be you have ignored such users and you can live with that but there are minors as well on this platform and we all (not only moderators but the users as well) have the responsibility to make this platform safer for them as well. So we highly encourage that you please report such cases so that proper actions can be taken against those users.
The closest I've had is a few PMs from a female identified member that looked like it was going there, it was probably over a year ago even under a different name and that person was posting something in the forum that indicated this. I believe if you don't encourage them and they know you're serious about this they will have a hard time take it that far.
