Long story short, I've managed to get kicked from two different FCs after people slandered me and made blatantly false claims of me saying hateful or derogatory things about the FC and/or its members, and on both occasions the "reputable" sources behind the claims were evidently so influential that literally nothing I said would get the FC leaders to reconsider, nor were they willing to even give me a chance to defend myself by offering specifics about when/where I was supposedly saying those things or who told them about it.

It's left me feeling rather distraught since I feel like there's someone just lurking in the background waiting for chances to make me miserable (And rather coincidentally, the second incident happened just a day after I had expressed joy over finally clearing ES4...).
I’ve been a victim of that kinda crap and I hate it. “Some people said you were causing issues” “who?” “I cant say they want to be anonymous”, “what did they say I did?” “You know what you did” No screenshots no nothing they just took the word of someone who said something about me and their friends apparently. It’s part of why I started my own FC and made rules against that sort of thing, if someone has an issue with someone else they need to talk to an FC leader and sit down with the person they have an issue with in addition to providing screenshots. The “he said she said” stuff doesn’t fly here
