Pastry of the Year posted:I don't read or post in D&D. Do you personally feel like she harasses people, above and beyond this forum's tradition of ribbing people when they stick their asses out, etc.? It depends on if you believe people that said slashie would stalk them offsite and make irl contact with their friends and family. She'd come back and say she was being stalked offsite and irl too. Maybe both are true?

The thing that happens to TB over and over again is that she starts out civil, and people keep tooting dogwhistle racist stuff which gets her progressively more annoyed and agitated. There's this cycle where she's calm and reasonable and yet assholes are like "Why are you yelling WHY ARE YOU YELLING TINY BRONTOSAURS CANT WE JUST HAVE A CIVIL DEBATE HERE?" so she gets frustrated to the point that she probably doesn't care how people interpret her response because they're going to jump on her responses regardless of how 'nice' she tries to frame it. And I'm sure her 'admitting' to being a Slashie re-reg was just sarcasm because it is a topic people refuse to drop. I'm sure it can be particularly insulting when people can't even accept you for who you are "There's no way this person is really a black woman/transgendered person/homeless they must be faking for attention" since it implies you don't even really deserve to exist in a way.

Looks like the only two options are that TB is completely blameless and pure or 100% a thread derailing gimmick account.

eh. she goes off the rails at points for sure. most of the times i have seen her go thermonuclear was mostly justified or at least understandable when you know you are dealing with someone that gets into moods and poo poo. i mean hell some days just reading the news makes me pretty much  so i get it kinda. however when you end up being able to derail a thread worse than that one nameless dragon age 2 uberfan, id imagine it makes opinions about you pretty galvanizing. Also for fair disclosure: I get yelled at for whiteknighting her on occasion

There's plenty of middle ground regarding Tiny Brontosaurus. There's plenty of people she's corrected who were just like  "oh ok sorry" and the issue got dropped and there was no derail. But people on the internet love to double down and it just feeds into her anger.

The other thing people gotta realize is that SA has kind of a blind spot when it comes to racism. Goons are pretty proactive about outing, ostracizing, and pushing out kid-touchers. Instances where the person was protected (like Aatrek and probably a few other people over the years) are met with collective outrage. Not so with racism, in fact it can often be the opposite case, in which the people calling out other posters for being racist get disproportionally worse treatment in terms of probations/bans. This of course just ups the ante for racists that can play the 'I'm not touching you! I'm not touching you!' game to try to goad people of color into getting frustrated and ultimately probated.

LORD OF BOOTY posted:I have no idea (and I barely even know who slashie is, way before my time) but I saw someone eat a ban for bringing that up a while back so... I would assume probably not? because if TB is a slashie rereg she is violating the rule about evading a perma ban, and hence should be perma banned herself. it's less an insult and more a call for her to be removed from the forums edit: stupid awful app quoted the wrong post.

Which forum is the most drama-free? Like, I post a bunch in Cycle Asylum, and it's so slow moving that I don't think we've made a new thread in like a year, but that forum still has the insurance fraud guy, the world traveling rapist, the guy who kept crashing in a straight line,, backpanther, etc

Not sure if it was a "saga" or not but I remember a thread where someone found a women who was a cutter that posted the most horrific loving images of her "work" online. Chick was cutting so deep and hard that you could literally see bone in some pictures. I think eventually goons reached out and got her some help so apparently it ended well but, drat, I consider it a saga because I've seen a lot of terrible poo poo on the internet in my day but little that's disturbed me more than those photos did. I think stuff like Two Worlds and Dollfucker count more as "sagas" since they went on long but that cutter thread made my blood run cold.
