Petition to remove abusive player in Ameba Pico



As of Thursday, May 26 at 9:54PM EST, this nuisance player has been removed from the game. Read more »

Picostyle resurrects briefly to bring you an important public service announcement.

Those of you who hang out in Japanese Parks may have come across this 55+ aged gentleman who has a habit of flying off the handle at those who have the misfortune of sitting or standing "too close" to him.

This angry man changes his name very regularly and has recently made his name がばまんJAPAN 中森ヴァギナ.

Get too close to him, misstep or misspeak and he will call you an "ass", "idiot", "moron", "stupid foreigner" or something equally as insulting. He will swear at those who offend him, without considering that it may be a child on the opposite computer screen.

Peggy and Catero have witnessed this (and Peggy has experienced it first-hand). We have reported him many times, providing support@ameba.net with detailed chat logs and photos of his abusive behavior. Still, nothing has happened. Ameba Pico support does nothing to protect you and your friends.

If you are a concerned parent or member of the Pico community*...

By signing you will be asking Ameba Pico to permanently remove him from the Pico community based on the grounds that he has repeatedly violated Ameba's own Terms of Service for Online Conduct, in which all Pico users have agreed not to:
5(b). Harass, threaten, abuse, disparage, libel, slander, embarrass, or engage in any other disruptive behavior involving another member or Company or affiliate’s employee or agent.
This man degrades the quality of the enjoyment of everyone's Pico experience.

For a company that claims to protect the online safety of its players - particularly children - Ameba Pico is doing a poor job with this case.

Hopefully, with your signed support we can give Ameba the push they need to do something.

Let's band together to raise awareness about and stop instances of bullying in Ameba Pico with the No Amebullies Facebook group.
