DROP

[relaxfriend]

Not that it wasn't obvious but I may as well announce it but I'm dropping Gary. I just want to say I had a lot of fun here and I have never had such a blast in a game playing this massive asshole. Sorry to the people who I just made plans with - especially those who tagged my latest post. I know I wasn't around very long at all but I will miss playing with quite a few of you.

Good luck to the rest of you!

I know we didn't play together, but I want to say that I'm so sorry about how all this went down and don't blame you at all for getting the heck out of dodge. Stalking your threads was always a delight, and I wish you good luck in your future endeavors!

Sad to see you go, though I certainly understand it. I wish you the best!

I'm sorry to see you go, Rae. We never really played together, but I'm glad you were able to enjoy your time here as much as possible, given the circumstances. Take care of yourself, alright?

[revolutionfalcon]

Even if you weren't around for long, I enjoyed what time there was. Best of luck in future.

so it turns out this is like three years late but i was reminded recently it was a thing and you know what, at the time it happened, i was too busy trying to process what happened and too eager to just get away from cosmos to comment on it, so i've decided i don't actually give a fuck if it's three years late.

how fucking dare you comment to the drop post of a person who dropped in large part because you and your clique were trying their damndest to harass her out of the game from the very moment she apped. are you even human? because that's not a thing a human being does, and while pyra may have bore the brunt of the consequences for what happened at cosmos, you deserved just as much if not more flak than her. this is disgusting, and after three years, i hope you finally realize it.

[relaxfriend]

Honestly, fuck you. That's what I wanted to say when I first saw this comment but I let it go. Like Yue said a lot was going on and you were honestly the last thing on my mind when all of this bullshit went down. And really that's how you get away with the things you do, isn't it? There's always someone louder and less sneaky that garners more attention. Pyra, Tora, Freya, etc. And like Yue I don't care if it's three years later, recently being reminded of you kind of pissed me off.

First of all, yeah, nice going commenting to my drop post when you were a huge pain in my ass while I was here. From the moment I came into the game you were high jacking all of Yue's plurks to talk about how much your characters would fuck Gary up or some annoying shit for befriending Dave, constantly trying to derail our CR and yell about how you couldn't believe Dave wouldn't forgive the guy who stalked him and said he'd kill his brother if he ever saw him. You infomodded the shit out of me with your (horrendously OOC, which I saw in just ten minutes of reading HS) Davesprite and Yue with Shun. You were always so goddamn rude to me in plurk. And you know what, you were annoying to me but that's not even what I'm pissed about.

I'm pissed about the way your treated Yue. When I first came in the game I thought you two just had a habit of bantering because you were friends, but it seemed so off. Sometimes Yue would legit seem stressed just talking to you. The more I paid attention the more I'd see the gross shit you'd pull on her. And once she told me the whole story I found myself so fucking angry. You constantly made disgusting passes at her oocly while she very clearly rebuffed you. Constantly. All the time. Made disgusting comments at her in general, posted bondage fanart of her character and pinged her without permission, tried to push headcanons on her, and harassed her for "hateshipping" even though she would pretty blatantly turn you down. I don't think it's a lack of self awareness on your part so much as it's a blatant disregard for anyone's feelings or comfort levels. Remember that plurk Yue made about a halloween thread she and I had with another player that you jumped into the middle of to bitch about the fact that Dave still hadn't forgiven Shun? I remember that. I also remember how you'd go on and on about how Dave was an idiot for not forgiving him. If you really, in actual reality, can't see how someone would have trouble forgiving a guy who saw all his memories (a thing that shouldn't have happened, you took advantage of Yue's lack of knowledge of how fusions work to further info mod her and say "Shun now has all of Dave's memories"), used it to try and push how he thinks he should be reacting, threaten his family, basically stalk him (something you had happen without Yue's permission), then holy shit I'm glad I don't know you IRL. I know I'm just touching the tip of the iceberg with how horrible you were towards her but I think this is pretty long already and you probably won't even reply to answer for any of this if Yue's unresponded to comment is anything to go by. But I hope you read this and reflect on it. Not for your own sake but for the sake of anyone unfortunate enough to deal with you now or in the future. You're disgusting and the way you treat people is disgusting. Stop sexually harassing people. Stop harassing people. Because I know after all this time you probably haven't changed a bit.

P.S, you probably never got a Bro at cosmos because the one time someone posted him to the TDM you had Davesprite immediately hit on him and scared the player away. Classy.

P.P.S, the one good thing about your attempted derailing is gary remained friends with Dave out of spite regardless of the fact that he was going to dump his friendship anyway if your entire gang of friends hadn't kept trying to derail their cr. In fact, they're a thing now, so thanks for that.

[ironicoolly]

dave and gary text each other 24/7 and do everything together. they even live together now. they're in love. a+ ship, a+ chemistry, would recommend over shun/dave or davecest any day of the week. five out of five doctors agree.

hey guess what i'm adding onto this because i keep remembering new reasons you suck. that's how bad you were. fuck you.

1. how fucking dare you follow me into every public and/or mutual's plurk i appeared in after i removed you in an attempt to force me to talk to you where you knew i wouldn't be able to tell you off. that's some sneaky bullshit, it's some stalkery bullshit, and frankly who the fuck were you to do that when they were mostly vent plurks about what happened at cosmos and you were... oh, wait! enabling the worst of it! a large part of why it happened to begin with, even!

2. thanks a lot for using me to immediately infomod the second dave cosmos got. what i wanted when i dropped from cosmos to get away from it - and you - was definitely to be dragged back into that shit by virtue of you starting up your bullshit the moment another dave replaced me. it was great. i loved it. given that the shit you and your friends pulled on me gave me serious anxiety issues for over a year afterwards (issues that a very manipulative asshole exploited to get their hooks into me, even!), i just enjoyed having to deal with that oh so much.

3. you and your friends' attitudes and treatment of gary was disgusting, and you all came off like ableist pieces of shit with the way you treated the fact that he needed medication to function. hope you know that. regardless of all your hemming and hawing about how shun was becoming a better person and ~he's not that bad~, gary was more sympathetic and harmless than shun could ever be. for starters, gary didn't kill people, and a lot of his actions were more attention ploys and the cries for help of a severely mistreated teenage boy if anything. oh, what? didn't know that? well, you do now; gary smith, canonically, had shit parents, a shit psychiatrist who openly told everyone his shit, a shit "friend" who made fun of him for being on meds and contributed to his decision to stop taking his meds, and untreated mental health issues due to all of the above. he was a boy that literally every figure around him, adult or influential, failed hideously. he wasn't a monster. he wasn't a murderer. he was a messed up teen who seriously needed help, so fuck you for the way you talked about him and for trying to use him as a prop to make your (infinitely shittier) character look better. do his issues absolve him of all of his actions? no, of course not; but the fact of the matter is, he was a kid who needed help. not a million death threats, attempts on his life, and machiavellian schemes aimed at degrading his mental health even more. sincerely, go fuck yourself for popcorning at the thought of gary's paranoia worsening to the point where his gem would crack. you're a massive piece of shit for that.

Don't have as much of a horse in this race, but I'm here to confirm that yeah, your Davesprite was the reason I decided against applying. You immediately injected Stridercest overtones into the thread, and that was difficult for me to respond to—and even when I tried to veer the thread away from that, you just brought it right back there again, so I figured, "Yeah, trying to play Bro like this isn't going to be feasible." It's incredibly bad form of you to let your own ships color your interpretation of a character like that, though I don't know if that explains everything that was off with him. Like a player above me mentioned, I didn't get the sense you had any grasp on his voice or personality at all, which is... very hard to crit, even, because I don't know what to say beyond "reread the comic and pay more attention to his canon dialogue and actions." It just didn't sound or act anything like Davesprite. From everything I've heard, though? You don't particularly seem like you'd accept crit or react well to it no matter how constructively or politely it's worded, let alone try to apply it to your playing, so I figure that's effort saved on my end in the end.

Anyway, it wasn't a huge deal to me at the time, and I figured, with how things ended up, you know what? Bullet dodged. But now that I have more of an understanding of the situation, I just wanted to stress that you really need to learn some social tact and awareness of your surroundings. For the record, even putting aside the matter of ship pushing being inappropriate, it's never, ever appropriate to spring an incest ship on somebody—let alone in a public setting. I'm not sure why I need to be telling you this when it should be common sense, but you apparently thought it was okay, so this is me officially telling you, publically where there's a record of it so that you can't do it to someone else later on in the future and use "I didn't know" as an excuse, that you can't spring sensitive subjects like incest on a stranger. On anybody, but least of all a stranger. You crossed major lines with that, and I'm not going to lie and pretend I wasn't unsettled when it happened. From the looks of things (the lack of any acknowledgment of wrongdoing or attempt to apologize), this is all probably going to fall on deaf ears, and I'm just going to say: this is not a good look on you. DWRP may have a short attention span when it comes to certain subjects, but if you don't shape up, you're inevitably going to come across a game far less forgiving than Cosmo, and it won't be pretty for you when you do.

[ironicoolly]

can confirm as someone who tried to crit her that yeah she was extremely aggressive and furious at the gentlest of crit so i essentially barely got three sentences in before i gave up. she kept tossing out bullshit excuses like "well it's not like they've ever been in this exact situation before christ" as an excuse for having davesprite immediately toss a bunch of stridercesty woe-is-me angst about not being able to save bro at dave, then having him try to choke dave the moment dave got annoyed. just for an idea of how bad it was. so yeah. not worth critting.

i'm really sorry you had to deal with that by the way. i knew she was a freak about davecest and ridiculously thirsty and ship pushy when it came to striders, but i didn't imagine she'd try to force stridercest onto you like that. saying i was distressed is uh. putting it lightly when she came into my plurk about you to brag that she had davesprite accuse bro of checking him out.
