Report Sexual Harassment.

Hello,

On Brokenlens Forums and/or Brokenlens Servers it is our responsibility to keep every player safe.

This leads me to Sexual Harassment. Sexual Harassment is NOT tolerated on Brokenlens, any type of it will be immediately punished with a permanent ban and will not be unbanned from our Network.

Any sexual harassment on the servers, forums, and even the unofficial discord should be reported.

When sexual harassment is reported, claims we be investigated as soon as possible. Take screenshots of messages if possible as you may be asked for them. Note: if someone has sent you an inappropriate picture, we do not need, or want, to see the picture as proof, written messages are sufficient. If you do not have any screenshots of messages, it does not mean that they won't be punished, it just may take longer since we need to investigate more.

On the other hand, We would like to remind people that not everyone is nice on the internet. If you feel like you're being harassed or being sent uncomfortables messages, tell us immediately and do not wait. Ignore that person and then wait for us to deal with it. You should also tell an adult you know and trust (parents) to help you as people on the internet can be dangerous. Report it to a mod, an admin or the owner. The case will be taken seriously and be dealt with as quickly as possible.

If you witness any type of harassment, please also make sure to report it, This person who's being harassed probably don't feel good inside, harassment can destroy someone's life and it is nothing to joke around with.

We're saying if you think a predator is trying to talk to you, like trying to discuss inappropriate things with you or asking you to send nudes constantly every day, Will get Banned without any way to be Unbanned. We're talking of things like that. Again saying "f*** you" is not a Sexual Harassment, having s*x is not a Harassment as they both are willing to, things like that has another punishment who has nothing to do with this thread.
What are the main forms of sexual harassment encountered on the Internet?"
There is many types
NOTE : There Might be Unwanted Words for young childrens, I suggest that Mature and people who consider theirselves enough old read it
refers to offensive sexual messages aimed towards a victim that are initiated by a harasser. Such offensive messages include gender-humiliating comments, ♥♥♥♥ threats, and sexual remarks which are unwelcome, and are neither invited nor consensual. Verbal harassment can be either passive or active depending on whether the harasser targets a specific victim (active) or targets potential receivers (passive).
refers to the intentional sending of erotic, pornographic, lewd, and lascivious images and digital recordings by a harasser to specific or potential victims. Graphic harassment often occurs via email, instant messaging, redirected/automatic linking, and pop-ups.
occurs when a harasser uses direct personal communication to harass a victim. Additionally, the harasser uses personal communication to convey messages directly relating to s♥♥ and/or sexuality which are unwanted or unwelcome by the victim. Such messages often:
(1) refer to the victim's s♥♥ organs;
(2) refer to the victim's s♥♥ life;
(3) refer to intimate subjects;
(4) impose s♥♥-related images or sounds; or
(5) insinuate or offer s♥♥-related activities.
Furthermore, a harasser who uses unwanted sexual attention to harass a victim online, intends to solicit sexual cooperation from his/her victim either on the Internet or in person.
is the least common form of sexual harassment encountered on the Internet. Sexual coercion uses various means online to obtain sexual cooperation by placing pressure on a victim. This pressure is often achieved by the use of explicit threats of harm directed towards the victim or relatives and friends of the victim.
Thank you for Reading

Sexual coercion is also just Sexual Manipulation. (I know from experience oof) And this level of sexual harassment is in fact the worse, just as you mentioned. If anyone is going through this I would recommend getting help IMMEDIATELY. If you do not it WILL put you in unwanted situations and very life-threatening positions.... Please, do not wait before getting help.

Most predators will not start out with sexual coercion, they will act just like every other person and even try to befriend you before getting real with you. You most likely will never know they are a predator. They are very good at hiding this and don't tell me otherwise because they apparently are good enough at hiding it with you due to prolonged experience. This type of threat is serious and even after getting out of the situation your life will still feel threatened.

I was put in this situation and I still am forced to look over my shoulder everyday and watch my back. I had to resort in getting a hand-carry weapon to protect myself as well. This level of sexual harassment is not to be taken lightly.

And don't think you can hide your info from them lmao, you will quickly learn the hard way. The longer the know you, the more they know about you, and majority you don't even have to tell them. But, if you are ever put in this situation find as much info as you can. If you get their name search them to see if they are a real person, find out their location if your able too. Multiple things that will help you if the situation becomes worse do it, find it.

I wouldn't tell anyone this if I hadn't done it myself. <3 Please be careful, and I'm so thankful you guys made this thread.

I find it super sad this type of stuff actually happens to people.... I wish no one had to go through this. It really messes with your mind, and it is so bad many people are even put into the position they are willing to commit suicide to get out of it.... these people are sick and will terrorize you if you allow it to go on....stuff like this is so sad....


And please be careful....once you get attached to these people it will be hard for you to want to part with them...no matter how bad the situation. And, even once you get out of it you will regret leaving and want to go back, or check on them, or want to know what they are doing, and who's the next person they are with....

This stuff really happens and I even find myself thinking these thoughts.....I am so thankful I'm out of the situation.....but, I still can't help but wonder what lifestyle they are living atm.... Manipulation is a really hard thing to happen to everyone and I think it should be a ban on the server/forums as well....

And their are multiple forms of manipulation. Suicidal and Sexual being the top (again know from experience)

I would just like to add one thing if this is okay.


Did you know that 60% of cyberic sexual harassments are not reported to anyone. If you are going through this kind of behavior, please DO NOT HESITATE to tell someone, and even more importantly go to an adult. When cyberic sexual harassment occures people tend to get embarrased and if gone untreated will lead to depression, and worse. Suicidal thoughts.

If you don’t fully understand what it is:
Sexual harassment’ is any form of unwelcome sexual behaviour that’s offensive, humiliating or intimidating. Most importantly, it’s against the law. Being sexually harassed affects people in different ways. If you’re experiencing harassment, there are many things you can do about it.


Both men and women can be the victims of sexual harassment. When it happens at work, school or uni, it may amount to s♥♥ discrimination.

What does it include?
Sexual harassment can include someone:

  • touching, grabbing or making other physical contact with you without your consent
  • making comments to you that have a sexual meaning
  • asking you for s♥♥ or sexual favours
  • leering and staring at you
  • displaying rude and offensive material so that you or others can see it
  • making sexual gestures or suggestive body movements towards you
  • cracking sexual jokes and comments around or to you
  • questioning you about your s♥♥ life
  • insulting you with sexual comments
  • committing a criminal offence against you, such as making an obscene phone call, indecently exposing themselves or sexually assaulting you.

Please. If you are going through this, you’re not alone. We’re ALL here for you.
<3 It does go unsaid for a long time.... I didn't actually come out with mines until until 6 months after it started happening......

well there is the bug stereotype that young boys bully the girls they like
It's kinda vice versa for girls lol. For me though, I don't be rude but I try to play hard to get, because if a guy is genuinely interested he will pursue a relationship. <3

This thread is serious so please go piss around with your friends elsewhere.
You didn't need to be rude. We understand it's serious. You could have found a better way to tell everyone that.
