More often than not it's a manipulation tactic.

yea he deleted his tumblr account after talking about how he was gonna take a long break from the internet but almost immediately afterwards made a new tumblr account with a different name and claims that hes "not a cunt anymore" but also still defends his actions while pointing fingers at arr. lol. https://web.archive.org/web/20230709052132/https://www.tumblr.com/autistic-fuckwad/721268580299292672/didnt-you-make-fun-of-an-esl-person?source=share

lmao this sure is a post

"yes, i know i used to be a cunt named M3G4L4D0N. I'm not a cunt anymore. hate mail about that will cost you 200 bucks specifically, and I'll also dunk on you about it. I was a teenager, still am, teenagers are assholes and I'm getting better. Genuine, good faith questions are fine, accusatory or asks asking me to "atone" are ignored unless you pay the fee."

"the only reason everyone thinks they are ESL is due to a claim from a flight rising anon hate website, called Anon Re Rising"

Sorry thresher, but it's pretty clear that the reason you don't like arr is that people collected enough receipts here to finally solidify your horrible reputation. You're an adult that generally acts like shit towards other users, your take no accountability for your actions, and you have a pattern of using gross manipulation tactics to bully people.

oh so full post of being "yeah i was an asshole but i think they were a homophobic christian so actually i wasn't really wrong". also naming the account "autistic-fuckwad" is just lovely, very reminiscent of... past wankers...

not to say i agree with anyone in this situation, but if one has to leave a significant amount of details off of their hill, then maybe it isn't a good hill to be dying on. i sure hope this sort of "public ganging up on people with my discord buddies because i'm bored" doesn't happen again it's really lame

Yeah based on this 'I did nothing wrong' post I don't think he's sorry at all. Expect more of the same from him.

"They had used the slur ( this is a regional slur from the UK ) "les" to be shorthand for lesbian,"

ohh so les is a slur in the UK now? what happened to that damn wikipedia link about it being a slur in Vietnam? Sorry I keep on beating this damn horse but I still can't get over it and now this... this is something else! Keep your damn story straight brother.

oh so we’re calling it a uk slur now? does that sort of stink of “I’m going to change the country this is a slur in to a “more important-sounding” country so it seems worse and I seem more right” to anyone else

there's something deeply ironic about him calling ARR a "hate website" for discussing flight rising drama when he was literally one of the worst offenders for telling people to hurt themselves on SMR

Re: Suggestions for Arcane Dom (and other struggling teams)

(Anonymous) 2023-07-09 01:31 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm not in Arcane or the suggestions poster (great list btw). I do have an alternate perspective when it comes to newer members figuring out new paths. Most of the time it has nothing to do with older members wanting to hold onto power or having difficulty adapting to change. Trust me. They want new, enthusiastic, capable, motivated volunteers. Running dom is exhausting. That is why so many dom leaders get burned out.

The site is 10 years old now. Dom is not exactly complicated. When new people come in, they are passionate about their flight and they have a ton of ideas. If you have a fresh new idea, by all means, throw it out there. I guarantee that your dom team wants to hear it. Most dom teams love new ideas that will actually work. But there are multiple reasons why a lot of ideas are not implemented.

- 9 times out of 10, your idea is not new.
- Your flight has already tried it and it doesn't work.
- Another flight has already tried it and it doesn't work.
- It's a great idea, but is overly complicated to implement.
- It's a great idea, but your flight dom culture won't support it.
- There are not enough volunteers or participants to support it.
- Your idea makes things harder on flight members (i.e. excessive recording/cost)
- Your idea only benefits a handful of people or allows you to personally profit.

In all honestly though, it's usually that it's been tried and doesn't work or that you haven't realized that the logistics of your idea are far too complicated to implement. Your older dom team members have been around for a while. They have experience in knowing what your flight will and will not accept regarding change. Most likely they've lived through being dragged on a drama site for an unpopular decision or three and probably multiple discord dom shitshows. And you are right, they should be allowing newer members to establish themselves and create new paths forward. But newer members should also be willing to listen to the reasons why something may or may not work. Sometimes coming in and completely changing things is not the best course of action or won't work for your flight.

seemed relevant given the prevalent dom discussion going on lately. That's really tough, I'm not sure how Arcane wins at this point. Light isn't even that much smaller than them and wasn't putting in any active effort afaik?

"Short answer: I was an asshole to a homophobic Christian who defended "straight pride", but not to someone for having English as a second language."

This deflecting is disgusting. You and your friends dogpiled a bi person on a Discord server for making one misinformed comment (and ironically proving their point about LGBT infighting). When you apologize to someone for your misbehavior you don't attack their character, this is basic common decency. I'm not even in the server but I've seen this kind of behavior take place in big toxic servers and people who act like that are so so gross. Giving this advice is likely talking to a brick wall here but if you're truly sorry for your behavior, kindly take a break. Don't make a big scene about it, just go. And don't rope people into your BMT mess.

i think you might be mixing up your shark themed assholes, nonny. dakkokki is the one who BMT'd and is dragging spookypuptarts down because theyre storing dragons for dakk. while m3g4l4d0n and dakk are/were friends, AFAIK theres no proof or drama around m3g4l4d0n doing BMTs or helping dakk ban evade.

I would be willing to bet actual money that thresher lied through his teeth about 'someone else' posting the embarrassing, self-centered, oblivious write up of this that got blasted on the aita tumblr. The tone is exactly the same, the completely unapologetic, nasty twisting of the details are the same.

I don't see ayrt mentioning anything about dakk. They're describing the nasty little hole thresher dug for himself after people finally got tired enough of his bullshit and started pulling receipts about his behavior on discord and tumblr.

Are you speaking about odds the upcoming battle in the fall between Arcane and Light?

For Arcane to be in the running they need to bring their A game on all fronts - $$$$, IF power, and giving OOF lots of reasons to support them beyond just being the underdog. It's possible, but I'd bet on Light any day of the week in this matchup.
