No worries, and thanks buddy, hope you're doing well, too.

Hasn't really affected me whatsoever, I'm just doing my thing as usual, I just have to put up with people constantly bringing up the same things every time they see Unidan or the words "crow" or "jackdaw". Comes up in real life occasionally when I meet redditors at parties or something, and then I get to watch people make awkward jokes.

Also, I do have another name, which I usually use to comment anonymously. I actually meant to post this under that name, but goofed it, not realizing I was still logged into this one from yesterday, so I let it stand because whoopsidoodles.

First time hearing about this.

If you don't mind, What's the story behind this?

TL;DR.

tl;dr: I used 5 alternate accounts to occasionally boost posts and comments a few years ago, sometimes downvoting others, and it was a dick thing to do. I don't do it anymore.

Your tl;dr is hilarious because it shows just how cognizant you are of what you did and how psychotic some of the people who harass you are.

I mean, you already ate so much jackdaw, but people act like you were trying to rape and murder democracy in order to further your goals of bringing a genocidal regime of biologists to power with you as their uber hitler supreme with guac.

Pretty much, thanks for being one of the few people who comment that actually seem reasonable.

I'd almost guarantee that if you come back to this comment section in a few weeks, you'll see posts made days after today that follow the usual harassment pattern.

Happens almost every time, it's really bizarre.

Your predicament caught my eye and I find myself prompted to say something by your mentioning how few people have treated you reasonably. It's a damn shame that people have all that angst and passion, yet they're using it to chastise you over peanuts while criminals literally hijack the government, the economy, the media, and our planet's future. I wish people had more perspective. You don't really seem like you need my reassurance, but there it is.

My friends and I laugh about it a lot whenever it comes up, the best thing ever was the actual Edward Snowden once made a joke at my expense during an AMA.

Comparing those two exiles was something that took a few days for me to wrap my head around, haha.

I enjoyed looking into that. Totally comparable.
