I am being stalked on another website.

Whenever some pesky poster pesters me with pretentious, pompous & prickly posts, I quote the great Albert Rosenfeld.....
Woof!

Some twerps actually respond by asking what it means.
But generally, they lose interest when they fail to provoke, but have this vague feeling they've just been insulted.

Ah, the wonders of the internet. Stalking has never been so easy!

Pardon, I know it isn't something to joke about. My best "prayer" is honestly to offer the following counsel. If it's serious, you might want to look into cyberstalking and cyberharassment laws. There is a federal law in place that can hold such people accountable in the United States. Unfortunately it only clearly applies to threats of physical harm, but it's better than nothing. There may be other avenues available. I haven't looked into it that much myself, but I know there are tools to combat it. ISP scramblers. Anti-spyware suites. Things like that. Something to think about.

I understand, but this is a virtual world, can't you just ignore the "stalker"? Or at least invite them into your real world for a little one-on-one?

Presuming they don't know where you are in the "real" world, then sure, you can ignore them. If they're making threads of physical violence, than as you said yourself, that is the time to involve the authorities, not go on a vigilante justice spree that will land yourself in jail.
