AYRT and I'm genuinely sorry to disappoint you. The whole point of my minor salt was about the people who whine and moan about those morons in the first place. In my experience, the people who do the whining also tend to be the same people who don't get around to writing their lore.
While I find the whining about the people who write the fucked up, specific lore about other people's dragons to generally come from self-defeatist attitudes, I think it's been made amply clear from other anons that I'm in the minority opinion. That's fine.
AYRT I personally don't give a fuck what anyone writes but I'm just saying you sound like that type :p maybe a Luvia has hit ARR, you should stop caring so much about this anon
and our responses have been "your 'solutions' aren't solutions," not that we think that "the whining about the people who write the fucked up, specific lore about other people's dragons" doesn't "come from self-defeatist attitudes."
the REAL 'minority opinion' you have is that you're badly advising people on how to deal with a situation by suggesting ways that does nothing OR could worsen it, when all the situation calls for is to:
1. not sell/give away your dragons 2. ignore/block players you don't want to interact/buy your dragons 3. report if what they've done is rule-breaking
it takes less energy to do these three things than it does to do anything you suggested, and quite frankly is more ND friendly. you maintain total control over all your dragons if you don't sell/give them away, you maintain total control over who can interact with you or buy your dragons by blocking and if someone buys a dragon from you to give to a blocked user that's block evasion and reportable, and it's no longer your problem if you report to staff and let staff do their jobs to handle it for you. all of this results in less anxiety of things you own having things you don't like done to them, and lets staff handle situations for you so you don't have to talk to people doing things you don't like.
nayrt but you sound like somebody who needs more going on in their life if you have time to keep tabs on and make judgements about the lore of every dragon you sell.
begging all of you to go back to your smr echo chamber.
AYRT lol nah man I just think this person screams Luvia energy and had to point it out, simple as that. Someone can write fucked up shit about my clan, idgaf
Anon you...think screams Luvia energy?? Is that the one who blocks everyone in existence for existing? If I look this guy up I'm not gonna find gore, am I?
AYRT that's the one but they also would write lore about other people's clans in their dragon's bios. Pretty sure all that shit got reported and is gone though lol
AYRT Huh. And it was worse than the usual "exalting bad" shtick from the site's old days, I gather? Now you've got me curious. I'll see if I can find a backup of the lore in question later today.
AYRT yeah from what I recall yeah it was pretty bad/weird. Something about their dragon named Father caring for them and taking them in from a terrible home and it was copy and pasted into like all their dragon's bios. In Father's bio itself it was something about not forcing anyone to breed if they don't want to etc. I will do some digging to see if I can find any archives of it because god it was kind sad but also funny to read tbh
I think actually most of the complaining about someone loring a sold dragon debates have started that way on some level. Then a whole bunch of folks dogpile them with how dare you check out what is done with that dragon, you are harassing them and breaking dragon ownership rules, etc.
When the whole thing really was "This awful thing being written about my clan without permission makes me uncomfortable."
And the reality is, most of them should just be reported to staff as a form of harassment. Or as inappropriate for the site.
AYRT If you have any luck finding an archived version of this, lmk. I've backread almost a full year's worth of SMR wanker threads and still can't find anything. Having a better idea of how long ago this happened would be helpful.

stop overcomplicating the whole situation.
