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
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.

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.

Need proof of his abuse?
Pico ID: がばまんJAPAN
Note: He changes his name very frequently. In the past few months he has changed his name to がばまんJAPAN, マソPの自慰スポット, 日曜激情JUN－潤 and 喪黒ヌク造＠笑ゥせぇくすマソ as well.
Where he can be seen: This gentleman can only be seen in public in the Japanese Parks area. He wears the same recognizable outfits with little variation: bald head, earmuffs, gold butterfly hair-clip (from the Casino) and a pink dress.
What he does: Unsuspecting players who sit or stand next to him are immediately met with a string of curses and insults. See a few of his outbursts (below) that have been reported to Ameba.This angry man feels free and justified abuse and harass people of all ages in Pico. He:
- circumvents the profanity filters in chat by using symbols like "@" and "/" to replace letters or split up words, thereby, "tricking" the filters.
- has been known to use Buddy Requests to harass other players who stand or sit "too close" to him. He will flood the player's Requests tab - sending and cancelling many Buddy Requests over and over - to place insults in the request message like "moron".

so much anger
1. This bully's entire thought processes focus on the negative and hurtful. His Pigg blog is filled with the negativity of his sad little life. He ridicules non-Japanese (with focus on Indonesians), people who beg for props and rings, and those who he deems to be moronic - even those who are being apologetic to him.2. This bully is older. He should know better. In his profile he claims to be 55+.
3. This bully's behaviour does not change. He's abusive on a continuous basis. In our estimated guess he attacks person at least 3 times a week.
If you've spent time in Japanese Parks, you've seen him jump down someone's throat with his insults and curses.
He use to bully so many people! he is terrible. - Mii SaHere are a few snippets of his behaviour (names have been changed to protect the anonymity of his "victims"; non-relevant chat has been removed from the conversation).
I've seen this pico harass other players, too. Once, I saw him call his poor girl "trash" and followed her when she walked away just to insult her more. :( - Anonymous

I once have experienced this. He called me a moron. - Akane

All of these incidents have been directly reported to support@ameba.net; oftentimes, the abuse reports have included photos.
He can't be reformed - we've tried to respectfully reason with him directly. It was wasted time and energy. The behaviour continues.
Ameba Pico continues to ignore the problem.
Let's take action! Sign the petition (Bahasa · Español · Tagalog · عربي · ภาษาไทย · 中文 · 日本語 · 한국어) and join the No Amebullies Facebook group today ... and tell your friends about it.
Thank you.
