Sounds like you may have gotten a sociopath after you.

You have the exact same tools to your disposal as he has, question is if you have the wit to use them to effect?
Uh, no. Just because someone wants your attention doesn't mean you have to spend months of your life playing their little game with them. If the guy isn't letting it go after this long, and is still obsessed, he's mentally ill.

This is perhaps the most unique, enlightening, disturbing and odd post ever to be placed in this forum.
Get a load of this then.
The reason i've said what i already have is because of my own experiences with a sociopath.
Guy used to be a 'friend' but started acting really sinister towards me and stealing things, so i told him to get lost. Then he started telling people any number of lies and stories about me to manipulate them against me. Someone started stalking me and damaging my car along with other things on my property around the same time, which i now know was probably him. I wasn't even aware of what was going on behind my back for years. Just thought the strangers i met who acted strangely towards me were just jerks or something. Was only when the lies became more bold and extreme and the behavior of strangers became more agressive that i started to look into it, but by then it was 10 years too late to do much of anything, because people are stupid and lies told often enough tend to become truth... I wish i had a happy ending to tell you, but he's still doing it to this day. These people need to be locked up for life or executed, imo. There is no way to rehabilitate sociopaths.

"Standard conflict arising between two players" doesn't put a timeline on events, with some sort of cap to how long they must last. Conflict does not need to have resolution, it merely describes the origin of that conflict as being within normal gameplay.
If two people don't like eachother and still care enough to be fueding for years that's one thing, but when one side decides to abuse someone over some petty thing that happened, or a complete delusion, for years, and the other side just wants to be left alone, that's harassment.
It's well within the game rules to mess with someone for a little while, but don't be naive enough to think a certain percentage of the playerbase isn't completely batshiat crazy, and will use the game to relentlessly abuse a person to feed a sadistic desire that goes far beyond simple competition or rivalry.

Try me.
Ahh, the arrogance of youth.
Why would you even want to waste your time? Don't you have better things to do?

If the individual has an in game reason for persisting then what he is doing isn't against he EULA.
If you are are not suited to the full spectrum of social interaction experienced by normal people in the real world perhaps you shouldn't play computer games that allow players equal license.
I'm sure there is no reason you cant raise what you see as internet spaceships bullying in court but expect to be laughed at.
Has nothing to do with your precious internet spaceships.
People like this have no place in society among normal people, whether you want to admit it or not, it's not in the "spectrum of social interaction experienced by normal people in the real world". There's a reason such behavior falls under the category of abnormal psychology, their brains aren't working properly.

As for me being a psychopath living to harm this guy yada yada yada, he spends far more time and energy on this than I do, he's been stalking me around public channels I hang in tossing passive aggressive comments about how he's petitioning me for this and that etc, talking to people trying to plot my doom, trying to hire mercenaries on me etc etc.
This is entirely possible too. It's a common tactic for true psychopaths to play the victim because they can't admit to themselves what they are. They present themselves as saints. You seem to be up front about your less than honorable behavior and tendencies, which is an asset for your case.
But It's impossible to say for sure what's going on here without actually knowing either of you in real life. So maybe just agree to leave eachother alone and forget about the whole thing?

How about you go back to hobby psychologists school and stop throwing terms that have a very real meaning to some people around at random people you don't approve of?
Now you're trying to start a fight with me?
I only said i don't approve of sociopaths.

And what do sociopaths have to do with this thread?
Kind of painted yourself into a corner here.
It's sociopathic behavior you two are accusing eachother of.
Don't take your rage out on me. Learn to deal with it.

I'm accusing someone of lying
Yes, but when you get into motives of people who lie more than usual and manipulate others you enter the realm of mental illnesses.
Anyway, forget all about the sociopath thing. The thread is becoming too focused on that.
