Can I report this to their internet provider or anything. I have a banned member that is out of control and threatening me left and right.
thanks

How is he threatning you? by email? Instant message? Surely you can block them? If not, I'd probably suggest reporting to the police if you're taking the threats seriously.

Lol, I have people threating me everyday either on IM or email, and if its just one of your banned members ignore it. Unless he knows you in person or where you live, if he starts saying some personal things that match you then I would call the 1-800-911INTERNET

We just had a similar discussion over at vB.com.
Never take your members' safety or your safety lightly. If you think this person is a serious threat then contact your local authorities and ask for their advice. What you want is to have your issue documented.

Report them to the RIAA. Tell them they are downloading MP3's from your server :p j/k... ya that's a tough one. for real, there is a number like this in what you guys are mentioning above? Ya, documentation is very important (from my perspective as a paralegal).

I deal with people threatening me and posting libelous things on here all the time. Send me a PM. I know exactly what you need to do to handle this person.

keep all chats and emails he sends as proof just in case this ever has to go to court - but before it even goes that far report the threat to your local police.Forget the internet police.
Ring your local station and tell them you are being threatened and fear for your own safety because no matter what form a threat arrives in,the police have a duty to check it out and protect you.

I used to get a lot of threats through my site due to it's nature; a site based around a 30 mile area - a few people have tried to intimidate me at events but they tend to lack backbone and were a little afraid to confront me.
I wouldn't worry too much, 99.99999999% of internet threats are pure ego talk.

That's very true and I make it plainly clear on my site that I have a big black dog.
But I agree with everyone else, if it seems serious, you should not take it lightly.

Threats because she is insane. Basically she was spewing racial insults, threatening members, and following members around and causing drama so I banned her now she has lost it
