since I’m tired of misinformation and people assuming things of this situation here’s what actually happened on Reddit which lead to gooseworx deleting her account
Censored to protect these guys identities, if you find them DO NOT HARASS THEM.
the deleted comment was a comment left by gooseworx, here’s what it said
This was a thread made by the first commenter being disappointed at the exclusion of ragatha in the narrative. It was not aggressive, it was not whining or bitching, it was simply constructive criticism and disappointment in a writing decision.
gooseworx replied to this thread in a way that can be read as passive aggressive (although I won’t say it was bad faith rather just annoyance). Both commenters (both the op and another commenter in the thread) did not harass her or anything of the sort, they didn’t even know it was gooseworx they were replying too. Soon after she deleted the comment and deleted her account.
gooseworx has even said that the problem was not criticism.
This was just the straw that broke the camels back which was a long time coming from the stress of handling a successful indie show and a berating fanbase.
criticism is not a issue, people have a right to criticize a piece of a media they enjoy, they have a right to be disappointed in the exclusion of ragatha as a main character. Ofc people should handle their criticism in a respectful way but these guys in the thread didn’t seem really disrespectful.
this isn’t to say that gooseworx wasn’t harassed or there were people who weren’t immature about their criticisms. What I’m trying to do is to set the facts straight. She wasn’t harassed off of Reddit. She left an admittedly immature response, realized she messed up and deleted her account out of panic.
People (both fan and creator) using this situation as a means to dismiss criticism, insult and harass people, spread misinformation about the situation, use it to demean ragatha fans or to hate on Ragatha or wanting her killed off (she’s a childhood abuse victim btw) to spite ragatha fans is seriously immature and not helping the situation. Frankly you guys are part of the problem.
i will say that I do feel bad for Gooseworx and I do hope she gets better and recovers from this. Heading a large successful indie show is not an easy feat and can absolutely cause a lot of mental strain. I wish her the best.
So yeah even goose says she wasn’t harassed 🫠
