That's like... literally not them. It is rather obvious they had no idea who is who, but they needed a story to post to satisfy their bizarre obsession with people who dislike their waifu Veness.

It is also very telling that reddit mods would choose to believe a literal 4chan troll with wrong information, and subsequently ban someone because they're "the head of the evil discord" (again, they're not, lol).

And yeah, we shared links on a subject relevant to our mutual interest, as literally everyone does. This resulted in reddit comments getting 3-5 upvotes at best, but because some psychopath on 4chan made it sound like we're some kind of dark shadowy army of 50-something people when in fact there are around 10 of us active at any time on the server, with a fraction of that even having reddit accounts and bothering to click on links, it becomes "Brigading". Absolutely incredible.

The fact is that this fandom has an awful toxicity problem, and this fabricated lunacy has resulted in some of us getting threats, because that is what losers on the internet do when you point them at a persona-non-grata.

Genuinely, do you realize how insane this all is? This is literally all because we're pushing back against the majority opinion along with their weird headcanon on the story of this game.

Touch grass, I beg you.

Oh, and come and say hello, why don't you?
You couldn't do a worse job at pleading your case. It's funny that you hide behind this sardonic "h-hehe we're that loathsome cabal your crystalmother warned us about :3" shtick while beseeching bystanders to not believe their lying eyes because that would be conspiratorial and stark raving mad, then turn around and say "Everything unpalatable shown about us is actually a complete conspiracy! All fabricated! I can tell from the pixels and the fact that my esteemed Shadow God personally Skype called me (he is really oldfashioned) to tell me that it was all a hoax!"

And why would I come to say hello? I've no stake in it. I've no intention to monitor or argue with you. I just think this concerted effort to astroturf a narrative is just kind of lame. Do with that what you will; I'll be out touching that grass you people proclaim the Convocation was planning to offer up to Zodiark in order to bring the souls of their brethren back.
