Well the actual solution was to ignore those you don't like because it would cause trouble and ruin a good time for other members and ruin their con experience.

Once you at home BM is completely okay.

[choof]

which is admirable because at least you're not putting on a front
this shit happens every year and tbh it's really making me not want to go to anime north because I'll just meet everyone and think "I wonder how much shit they're gonna talk in skype chats while being friendly to my fucking face"

you can feel reassured knowing that all the shit I talk to you online is shit I would also talk to your face

lol, it sounds so much dickier without my tone of voice to let you know I'm joking but I'm not going to resort to winky face emoticons

Story of my online persona.

you could have been the bigger person and, you know, tried to confront her respectfully, in person. shit gets lost in translation over the internet.

For those who don't know the full story...
This person WAS confronted. Last year after AN about some of the problems people were having with said person.
I thought i'd do it since I was mutual with this person and didn't have much to lose and thought I would honestly get an apology, not just for me but for the others who had been upset...
Unfortunately instead of things being talked through and reasoned with it kind turned into a shit storm and has continued till this day.
I personally just ignored it this year with a lot of people asking me how come I haven't said anything but... idk.
This person didn't really do anything wrong this year. People were still being upset from the previous year which I can't really agree with sadly..
This person did a lot to make friends with old people who have been hurt plus some new people who they haven't met yet or first time comers to AN. Overall I think said person has been doing much better not just for us, but for themself. Which in my books... Earns my respect. It's a shame all of this is happening over 1 person but hopefully some people will take a second to sit and think why do they honestly dislike this person. Is it because someone else dislikes them? Or do you actually have a good reason. If so do they honestly deserve all this hatred even with them trying extremely hard to fix the shit storm?
I guess that's not for me to decide tho.

Maybe i'm 2 old for this.
in b4 yoooooooooo saaaaaaame

Oh well~

I guess lots of us like to hold grudges and not be like "Hey I dislike this person but I'm going to pretend I actually want to be around them".

i really don't want to sound like i'm defending sarah because the shit she did last year was pretty fucking caustic and, imo, it warranted a lot of the shit she got for it

but iirc she also stated, more than once, that she was going to be better this year (laying off drugs, etc etc)

so if she was fine this year idk why you're still bringing up shit from last year

She was nice to me and if nobody had mentioned anything I would have thought she was a typical person. I still do, but yea.

Also I didn't agree to anything as nobody even mentioned anything to me so there's that.

I'll try. I'm not a emotional or even a mean person, but I'll be as real with you as I can.

I haven't been to AN, so I don't have much context to go off of so I apologize if my understanding of the situation is over-simplified.

Not liking someone (even if based on a year-long grudge) is one thing though. However, publicly humiliating someone, especially in the matter that was done with that group photo, is another thing altogether.

Also, perhaps it may be the case that not everyone is fond of Sarah. It may even be the case that everyone would agree to edit the photo for their own entertainment. However, I don't think that everyone would agree to posting said edited photo in a public forum...that's a bit of a step too far.

[choof]

tl;dr you all should be fucking ashamed of yourselves for deriding a person who has gone to the site meetup for years now

[Zageron]

Anyone who was on the agreeing side of the discussion to edit that photo should be ashamed of themselves. Grow up.

Nope. Stop projecting.

I know it seems that way, but it's hard to get mad and speak out about it when you know you're surrounded by people who all seem to agree.

I can't believe you guys are deleting my comments for legitimately calling immature people out on their bullshit, but won't even delete the absolutely rude picture that it's in reference to. Why are you guys even mods, like seriously
