Now I understand why you comment here. In Norway it's very cold, you're at home all day and you get bored. Poor... Lasse Østebø Løvik
Well, this forum subject was weird. Some random guy (bebold) felt harassed because somebody was watching his games. Clearly most people will not consider that even close to a harassment. So an answer to you forum question "HELP!!!! CAN I DO SOMETHING???". No you can not do a single thing.
"Clearly most people will not consider that even close to a harassment". how do you know? Have you already asked all the players?
I don't think you can consider that bully or harrassing or anything at all, but if it bothers you theres actually an easy solution to that problem.

that's a google chrome extension for lichess, its main use is to hide your oppenents name and rating, but it also hides the number of spectators and their names so you don't know if someone is watching your game.

No, but I've read the forum that you started, and clearly the host and some other users thought you were exaggerating.
But I think I know what your problem is. You disabled the function that other people can follow you. So clearly you don't want to be followed. But I don't think you understand that following is different than watching your games. It's an very open and liberal site where people can see a lot of detail of you and your chess games, but also privacy is respected so you can decide by yourself what information who can see. And restricting somebody from seeing you games is not part of that. If you want nobody to see your chess games, this is not the site for you. Also, said above is just a presumption, so I don't really know if you are thinking that. Just an idea.

@LedZeppelin5 When you play many games every day and you always see the same username as spectator. Every day, every week, every month, every game, I assure you that you would consider bullying. Thank you for your solution but I use Safari.
The game on lichess are open for everyone to learn from. The page on which you are playing is not your property. It is the property of lichess and it allows all users to watch all games past and present. Part of the site. Deal with it.
well if it bother you that much, change to google chrome
@Calanthe "this is not the site for you". Calanthe is now the master and lord of Lichess and decides if this site is for you or not.
