Things that make you cringe?

Honestly, everyone, including those defending the guy, are making mountains out of molehills. His post was dumb but not brigade worthy, I doubt the other person who posted it on twitter thought it would be such a big post, they probably shouldn't have posted it honestly, but at the same time when did harassment come into play? He's made no mention of people bothering him in game or anything, the replies to the twitter posts being "nasty" basically amount to "what a bad take, look my character I don't care what he thinks, he has an ugly glam too" which is kind of what he also did in the first place?
Like if someone HAS tracked this guy down in game to give him shit that's a big nono and I wholly condemn that, but that hasn't seemed to be the case, not to mention people are straight up posting misinfo here like saying "4channers are planning to harass him", I looked through all the /xivg/ threads on /vg/, no one even posted the forum post until *after* it was pointed out no one did in here, which it got a few sarcastic replies agreeing with him and calling him "based", and was soon forgotten. I wouldn't doubt it was someone looking at this thread who did finally post it on /xivg/ hoping they would make a big deal out of it just to help drum up more drama.

This whole thing is really people on both sides of this argument really wanting to build up the drama, and then you wonder why twitter accounts that post stuff from these forums exist. If I feel bad for the guy it's not just because the twitter posts at this point. You're all really just helping perpetuate this guy staying in the conversation regardless if you're being critical of him or defending him at this point. Let it go, let it rest, people will forget in less than a day as long as people just leave it be, if anyone actually goes after him he's entirely in the right to report them.

It's not misinformation. It's there and a little of everywhere. See this comment:

Saw this thread posted on twitter, Reddit, and linked in like 6 different discords

As for tracking him out and harassment. We literally had a Lalafell openly admit two hours ago on this thread that they targetted him because it's fun. Willing and happy to get banned over it.

Can we stop pretending like things are being exaggerated when the information is right in front of us.
