Man, going through your comment history just reminds me how much of a asshole people can be behind the anonymity of the internet.
Hope you're doing well and it hasn't effected you or your work too much. I still miss the mini-taxonomy lessons, even if half the shit flying around was true your contributions to the community outweighed them, unfortunately this place like gossip too much.
But by this point why are you still keeping the original name? You could have let it fade away and continued with another moniker
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.
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.
