I disagree : there are elements in these forums using peeve kinds of threads ( What are your peeves ? ; How do you feel ? ) which are usually harbouring a set of people who all of a sudden tend to turn against a forumite ( whomever ) with small jabs until it forms a pages long tirade how anyone feels about anybody ( notice i say feel : pure emotion ) which generates written anger. Some even master that build up just to set up others to have a go at eachother for the sake of entertainment. This formula needs to be broken if examples of pleasantness like Scylla described to me are meant to resurface and not simply vanish. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ted McGregor Posted December 18, 2020 Author Share Posted December 18, 2020 (edited) Let me give you an example. I am NOT a friend of Luna. I do not have her on my inworld friendslist nor ever met her inworld. I only share a certain stance with her and expressed it in this forum. I am ACCUSED of being the White Knight enabler.

This formula needs to be broken if examples of pleasantness like Scylla described to me are meant to resurface and not simply vanish. I’ve seen a couple of people do something like this, and I’ve seen one person consistently white knight in a strange way and I just blocked her after saying my piece, not getting through and just saying oh well. The worst name-calling in the whole exchange was me calling her auntie and her calling me pumpkin and that was that. My impression is that quite a few people have done the same thing with her. There’s always been one person who will never stop yelling into the void in every forum that I’ve ever been on so maybe I’m just used to it? But I guess I haven’t seen anything quite as bad as what you’re describing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I flip the situation and imagine myself under the tender ministrations of said white knighting from said person, my first response would be nuuuu holy shizuuu please don’t defend me - go away go away go away. Because what they do isn’t really defending the person, it’s using the situation as a cover to poke out and punish others. There’s lots of evidence of that in past threads, the name-calling other people, taking very personal pokes at them etc. I don’t even have to say anything more negative than “go look at the body of work in her posts overtime”. So if you align yourself with that, I guess people will think that you approve of that behavior and be very wary of it. Can you blame them after they’ve watched what they’ve watched coming from this person? People here a very long memories. And they watch patterns of behavior over time. Now it’s extending into decades as second life ages. Are all those people wrong and mistaken? I don’t think so Edited December 18, 2020 by Fauve Aeon 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish they would watch their own behaviour more instead of Luna' s , whom I' ve frequently confronted and certainly don' t agree with on MANY points, while I am observing theirs. You now speak of a group. Against Luna. A group. Against Bagnu. A group. Against me. There' s always this group. It' s a toxic group. It' s not just Luna.

Are you claiming Luna always took residence in the previous peeves threads and started off conversations from being peeved about something turning it into being peeved about someone turning into being peeved about a certain forumite ?

Dragon Mommy Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 Maybe don't make a toxic callout post when you're trying to make a point about toxic callouts. People having boundaries around toxic behaviour isn't abuse. People highlighting a pattern of bad behaviour isn't abuse. I'm not saying there isn't abuse on the forums but damn, this is either the longest term troll or some serious cognitive dissonance. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
