Alright for those of you all bent up about Pyro's and Maddie's new boundaries. Think of it like this;
You are someone in a twitch chat, twitch has set rules that you need to follow to be in any chat as well as the streamer for their chat specifc rules.
Now time passes feelings and situations change, The Streamer has publicly let everyone know that the rules have changed slightly for the betterment of their mental health and general comfort in their space and have asked you follow them.
But then you go against those rules, and the mods get told that you've broken them or the mods/streamer see it themselves.
So you get banned or timed out. Because you have purposefully gone against the chat rules because you've decided that the rules they have set aren't to be followed because it impedes on your self expression.
Hmm, this feels really familiar. Oh wait, you know what? This reminds me of Philza! He established that he didnt want chat to call him Dadza anymore yet people still do.
If someone is purposefully breaking your boundaries, usually you block em. Why? Because you dont want to interact with them as they make you uncomfortable.
"Oh but thats not fair on them, you purposefully put yourself in this space its going to happen!"
"Youre a content creator you cant go micromanaging your community
"We have the freedom to express whatever we like!"
What are streamers not people too? Do you automatically lose your right to simple automomous boundries by becoming famous?
Yes, Pyro did enter this space, and yes its going to happen because its out of their control. But you know what they can do? Block the people who do it so they dont have to see it, so they dont have to interact with it.
So please think about it, that is another person like you and I and they have asked that you please do not do something. Its that simple.

"Hey! Yeah basically what the wording means is that if my community moderators (twitch and discord) find stuff that violates my boundaries, we will ban them from my communities. There won’t be witch hunts or targeted harassment - that’s stupid, unreasonable and ineffective.
Moderation is also something we’re not gonna clamp down on for a while anyway since news is still spreading and I think a loose grace period is necessary considering how sudden the decision was to the public. The reason I worded what I did so strongly was so that people who continuously violated myself and my partner knew that I wasn’t just gonna not moderate that in the spaces where I have power to.
I know I can’t stop people from doing stuff, that’s impossible and is also unreasonable. People have cracks in the walls that i’ll never know about where they produce works that violate my boundaries that I’m not okay with and that I don’t condone but that I can never find. I also won’t then create a blocked term tag for that sort of content. For the sake of my personal safety, i’m not going to just let stuff happen without enforcing boundaries in my space and in spaces that I share banlists with.
If anybody happens to come across people violating my boundaries or frankly, anyone’s boundaries, I strongly encourage folks to make an anonymous ticket in this discord as i’m committed to ensuring the safety of all of my friends in the space :)
All of that comes to also mean that my moderation won’t be harassment. I want to send this point home, the only action I will take is the removal from my spaces." - Pyrosythe's boundris clarification in his discord server.
Hello, very active pyrat, former majorscythe discord mod here!
I need everyone who is not an active pyrat to sit down, shut the fuck up and stop having an opinion. I need everyone who hasnt watched pyros stream about the situation to stop having an opinion.
It is so clear to me that yall have no idea what pyroscythe is actually like and are choosing the most poor taste reading of things taken out of context and blown out of proportion on purpose just to have something to fight about.
If you've been in pyros community you should know he is so lovely and has genuinely been so fucking supportive of all the artists in his community, including the ship ones, from day one. Me and my majorscyther friends have never felt any discomfort in how pyro interacts with us regarding our shipping. The only reason he is implementing this is for his girlfriends comfort.
There are some really lovely wonderful people in his community that he cares about who are genuinely struggling. Not with the boundary itself but with the loss of something that has had a great and wonderful impact on all our lives.
And in the middle of trying to grieve we have been faced with nothing but self righteous people on twitter who dont know what they're talking about but think they're superior for never having shipped, and also the most entitled people on here who think that what someone else doesnt consent to is a personal attack, who think that the rules dont apply to them because they dont see content creators as people.
The last couple days have been hard enough without people who genuinely dont actually know what or who they're talking about leaning in and thinking that they have to have an opinion on anything that happens. Its fucking exhausting.
with the update to boundaries im not gonna post any new ship art for pyro, however ill still make pyro art and wont take any of what ive made down. im proud of what ive made and i like it. peace out.
