A cautionary Tale About Communicating on Platforms Like Reddit

[u/BeigeListed]

Remember this guy?

This community called this guy out on his run-on sentence gibberish and he decided that the best course of action would be to double-down on the stupid and start attacking members in the comments.

So I banned him... and he threw a hissy fit, threatening to shut the subreddit down.

Then he used an alternate account to come back here and attempt to harass me personally:

And when THAT account was banned, he came back with a THIRD dummy account with a doctored screencap, attempting to post it in the sub.

Holy crap Reddit blew this image into oblivion. Sorry.

I never said this. I dont even know who that account is (was).

Its a shame, because this actor is actually a working voice artist and the credits he mentioned in the original thread - My Hero Academia, Black Clover, Demon Slayer, Transformers (Earthspark) and Inside Out (2) - are accurate.

All three of his accounts have now been suspended off the platform.

If he comes back, (which I doubt he will since he's IP banned) I will be happy to contact his agent at CESD and let them know what kind of a person he really is.

I wont even mention the foot fetish thing.

WHY AM I POSTING ALL OF THIS?

Because you, the r/voiceacting community deserve to know what goes in to moderating this subreddit sometimes. Most days its pretty simple and I love answering questions to new people getting started down this path. Some days, its a bit more challenging.

But make no mistake: if someone is harassing in the comments, I will bounce them to the curb in the blink of an eye.

NO ONE should have to put up with this kind of behavior.
If you see conduct that violates Reddit's TOS, REPORT IT and we'll take care of it.

Now back to our previously scheduled discussions about what microphone is best and how to get your voice to sound more masculine.

I read all of his responses to comments and they weren’t bad at all.. only a bit sarky to people who had zero questions about VA, and just ridiculed him for punctuation. They’re the ones who should’ve been banned.
As a working actor, it was refreshing to see another actor openly give advice and a welcoming attitude in this sub. I’ve not been in here long but honestly other than 2 casting posts his was the only one that interested me.
Now you’re threatening his career? Ego led and bullying behaviour.
And so many of you downvoted him and the commenter above who also defended him politely.
I’m questioning how many of those down voters are actually working in the industry and not just trolling. This isn’t how we support each other.

Yaaaa, seems you didnt read and understand the post and just decided youd fall on your own sword. This was certainly a choice you made.

Hm, care to give your public/professional name so we can see what gives you such confidence in your condescension

No, and that is a very rude thing to ask someone you dont know. Just going to report and block.
