Let's be clear, I haven't made a post and talked about it, nor was I planning to make a post to talk about it but instead doing the mature thing to let other people run their mouths and talk about and I stay silent. Now, as this seems to be near the end of this whole thing or at least for now, I will just try to explain a few things.
First off, this should had not left the comment section between me, purpleandgold, and to an extent Bdawg. I appreciate users on this site for standing up whether he agreed with me or not, but it should had not left there. Secondly, it is also clear that most of the users on here does not fully understand my comments and that is also why I didn't want it to go off the comment section. The whole altercation has been a back and forth between me and purpleandgold that has been going on almost a month from now, but it seems more people have seen this altercation. Those comments I stood by then and I will stand by now and still will weeks and months to come and you can not make me think otherwise. I believe that we must have active moderation on this site but a safe, friendly environment for all users young and old and I did not believe the current moderators have that same mindset and instead it is a sample size of what it is on the discord. That is what I was referring and then I also took a jab at two other discord members for something else but that is for another day that I don't want to get into right now (you two know who y'all are). I was not calling the entire discord but the select few that knew I was talking about them, I don't know a lot of y'all on there and know a sample size and note that the majority of y'all I was not talking about y'all and shouldn't worry about anything else from me. The mod pressured me to apologize for my comments, which I said no. Then we went back and forth on insults. This is what I called blackmail, but legally I can not call it such and I was advised to call it coercion. But what it is for a fact is an abusive power of authority, one person in power punishes everyone else for one persons actions. This is not right at all and I stood my ground.
After that back and forth, I thought that was that but then Monday night someone saw it and made a post about it and it started another fanspo civil war. For the record, I did not tell anyone to talk about it and I did not force anyone on my side as you can go back to posts and see clear as day I did not. I went back and forth on the matter standing firm and not backing down and then it got to a point that night that I will just stop going back and forth with them as there was no equal grounds and that I will just stay quiet, let it die down, and just wait. I went to bed thinking this was all dying down and then I wake up to Bdawg as the mod and finding out that there was a whole negotiation plan been set up and constructed all while I was asleep. Now tell me how you would feel when you made it clear that you were standing on business and then someone you trust promises another thing? I was hurt and there was no need for me to apologize when I never myself promised it. I received multiple messages about the situation and like I said, I was ignoring it to let everything die down and see how truthful the mod was about a 12 hour timeframe to apologize so Bdawg keeps mod privileges. As soon as he removed Bdawg as mod early this morning the same person who negotiated behind my back was mad that I didn't follow through his plans, the same plans I never agreed or known of until after it was negotiated.
I was sitting there watching his comments waiting for him to realize that there is a two way streak to this and he took both ways and left me out of it, that never happened. Instead he got mad that I didn't agree to apologize and then he started propositioning himself to make a take down post or what he called a "call out" which turned out to be a long, overdrawn post with more links then information. I screenshotted a comment and posted it on my account trying to warn people of his intentions. He called it out of context, but with that comment and then flaunting that the post will easily get to top of trending then I don't see how this was out of context. I called him out that what he did to me is not right and that he is hurting himself, he ignored so I posted the screenshot. He later posted the hit piece he has been working on all day and to be honest, I haven't read it. He called me a dictator and I was like "that's bullshit" and went on with my day. None of it affected me and it didn't seem to affect people's opinions on me as much as you would had thought.
To end this and shorten this up, this should had stayed in the comment section. This became too big then it should had been and I should not be making a post about this right now. I also want to point out that let's not stoop to the mods level. If someone with higher power than you makes you have to apologize over a comment or having to negotiate for someone to have mod privileges is abusive behavior, it is immature, and it is reckless for the site. Let's cool it with the mod stuff and just go on with what we have been doing cause everything will work itself out eventually.
Thanks for reading!
