Online harassment
I don’t see a way to contact the mods on here.

I have an online stalker who has been following me around. Creating user names like zitsky_flies_in_coach or zitsky2 to harass me. Do the mods have any suggestions for preventing this?

That's really unfortunate. Use the red icon on their posts to report them. If it is in a specific forum, look for the names of the mods at the bottom of the forum. Send them a private message detailing what is happening. There's no way for us to prevent it, but we can suspend the stalker.

Thanks for having a sense of humor about this. It has to be so aggravating. And should a stalker take to PMs, please forward them to me. I wish it didn't happen but it does. We try to act quickly.
