Topic: What can I do if someone is using this type of forum to harrass

an already established forum.

Hi there, trying to stop some internet harrassment and this is my start.

Here is on of PunBB forums that is mocking an already established forum

http://www.gnrevolution.net/

now here is our forum that the PunBB is mocking and harrassing, we plan on taking some sort of legal action but wanted to start here first.

Can you shut this person down or keep him from using your type of forum.

this has nothing to do with punBB, contact the site owner or his host

how can I find out who the host is.

It doesn't say on the site, any ideas?

Thanks btw for the help.

Indeed, PunBB is a piece of forum software: we as developers have no control over how people use it. You need to talk to the owner or the host, as yemgi said. If you have any more questions, feel free to drop me an email.
