The fact that all of this irrationally got under someone's skin so much that they felt the need to spend disproportionate amounts of their own personal time making a MemeBro "I totally don't care at all, anyway, here's my obsessive diary about you, STACY" decorated with schizophrenically-shifting Font Sizes and Warrior Icon stickers like a middle-school class binder... and then hosted a website for it, too... is just such Himalayan-peak "FFXIV Community".

Forensically-profiling forum alts and assigning them the adult equivalent of my old primary school's "Sexy Rating"... there's just no point in satire when reality like this exists. In the world inside his head, he really thought that this was a super-great idea that was going to make him famous and respected by all the Real Gamers that he reveres.

And then throwing a pouty little-boy tantrum because he's forced to clean it up by, of all people, r/shitpostxiv mods. Somehow managing to actually scrape rock-bottom so hard that even r/shitpostxiv distanced itself from your ideas is really vicariously embarrassing.

The only upshot here is imagining Arthars sitting in his 2000 USD gaming chair, completely naked, stuck to the upholstery by sweat, taking a shot of FFXIV Branded Mountain Dew and screaming "YEAH!" at the ceiling as he quivers and shakes his fists and stares intensely at each new line.
