This OnlyFangs stuff actually sucks. Lots of weird attack posts and people taking it too far. Putting everything in one place and washing my hands of it after this. To start, here is the response about the Dire Maul run. From my perspective I didn't feel I could save anyone else with the resources I had left even with mana gem and robe cooldowns. Since the call to run was made I followed the call and got out as quickly as possible. In every other instance where shit has hit the fan the shot-caller has called specific targets we locked in and nobody died. If you call RUN RUN RUN then everything after that is a shitshow. Yamato pinned the entire thing on me despite everyone making mistakes and this rapidly spiraled into attacks both on and offline. xitter.gq/PirateSoftware/status/… The next few days was just tens of thousands of messages berating me, sending death threats, doxxing, and all kinds of shit. This happened on Twitch, Twitter, YouTube, Steam, Reddit, Discord, and over VOIP initiated Phone Calls all at the same time. Here are a few examples from just inside of WoW to give you some understanding. xitter.gq/PirateSoftware/status/… So what do you do in this situation? You start reporting it and banning people. We took the 10,000+ attack accounts and reported them up for the organized hate raid that this is. It disrupted our broadcast on all platforms for the last 3 days and prevented our community from doing anything. That's a hate raid no matter how you slice it and it needs to be reported. We also setup automation to shut down the First Message Last Message shit stirring posts which worked to mostly positive effect. Despite all of this I kept running with the guild and kept doing dungeons with people. Got my UBRS key, had runs that were fun, and had some clutch moments as well. Then during an UBRS run another creator in the group shit talked me the entire run and spoke many times about wanting to start a fight with me over voice "For Content". I was pissed about this and said bluntly to the community that I would be reporting anyone that does things like this. Not just anyone covering the situation, anyone specifically targeting me to make "Content" out of it by directly disrupting our broadcast. The idea that you shouldn't fight back or do anything to defend yourself is absurd. Absolutely do something about shit like this. Defend yourself and report that kind of behavior. It doesn't matter what size of creator you are that doesn't belong on any of these platforms. This was posed as a "Content Guild" which to me meant we were crafting stories and narratives around our characters and achievements. Not content at any cost which this clearly has become. For those in the guild that reached out to me after all of this, thank you. Was fun running together and maybe we will again one day in a different game.
