I’m just gonna post this before bed
But I neeeeeed to talk about this. Obviously some things are kept secret for the sake of avoiding pointless drama, but here’s the thing.
On a lot of my other accounts, Psycho is a part of my username. It’s meant to describe a character of mine. Most of my users are like that. With the exception of this one and a few others.
Psychopath is not a god damn slur. It is a scientific term. It gets confused with Sociopathy all the damn time. It’s not the same. PSYCHO is not a god damn slur. It’s a god damn scientific term and an edgy term. Can it be used derogatorily? Yes, just like ANYTHING can.
Someone on Flight Rising(won’t say who and I’ll blot out avatar and name) decided that they wanted to trade artwork for specific items that other players may have. I had an item that would have given me 2 fully detailed headshots of my dragons on FR. I offered said item, they agreed.
And then privately messaged me THIS
Let me just show you what went down before. Because nothing went down before. It was pleasant prior to this infuriating message.
This was my first post on the thread. I have exactly one of those items and I was willing to part with it.
Person sends me this like 6 minutes later.(I want to point out that 2 hours later I would get that message at the top there)
I send her the images of the dragons I want drawn yada yada, and then this
is what I get in response.
My final message to her is telling her I want a simple color background and giving her my non-political tumblr. Literally 6 minutes later I get that top message.
IF YOU TOOK ONE DAMN SCIENCE CLASS-NO, YOU KNOW WHAT, IF YOU WATCHED ONE DAMN MURDER DOCUMENTARY YOU WOULD KNOW THAT SOCIOPATH AND PSYCHOPATH ARE DISORDERS. SCIENTIFIC TERMS. It’s stuff like this that PISSES ME OFF.
If we’re going by her logic, I believe I have nightmare disorder(haven’t been diagnosed but I tick like all the marks). Here’s something I COULD SAY.
“Well, because I have n*ghtmare d*isorder I don’t want people talking bot n*ghtmares or making users like that because its insensitive to my nightly struggles HURR DURR.
JFC, it’s not even a slur.
