A quick word from the cowboy anon 🤠: I appreciate ya calling out creators who either don't fix their errors or just flat out refuse to acknowledge them.
I read a bit of Lilac's work a while back but I never really keep up with their tumblr or their progress so it's a big surprise to me to see that they're so problematic -- though I suppose I shoulda expected it due to my low expectations of anyone on the internet. The same with Malin -- I was very supportive of them for a while after I read their apology but the other day when ya mentioned the blatant gaslighting that was present in their message I was like, "Oh, you're right, on God." I don't tend to pick up on things all that well so I immediately had to rework my whole mind-set around the ordeal despite my love for the Fallen Hero story.
I think, overall, it really disappoints me how fuckin' insensitive and plain, down right, asshole-ish so many content creators can be -- something I'm gradually starting to pick out in the IF community among others. I think if you're going to create something and distribute it to a community, you should at least listen to their criticisms (unless they're just being downright dickheads that can't tell the sharp end of a pencil from the eraser). If someone tells you something is offensive take it seriously, unless the complaint is completely unreasonable, and don't start fussin'.
What good is it to pitch a hissy fit about something when ya can literally apologize and fix your mistake. No one's going to blame ya if ya just get off your high horse and act like a decent fuckin' human.
Anyways, enough of my chatterin'. Again, thank ya and I hope y'all stay healthy and safe in the pandemic. Y'all the goat.
cowboy anon came back to drop some hot takes on everyone 😳
