Hey I love me a harmless and good natured troll. Shit’s a lost art. Them and dragonfucker. As a bonus it helps weed out people who don’t know how to not feed trolls. Non-malignant trolls are part of a healthy online ecosystem.
I miss unexpectantly learning about how everything relates to that time undertaker threw mankind off a cage and the alternative uses for booster cables.
The thorn is so harmless, and honestly, sxan has been one of my favorite people to converse with here for a long time. I’ve never gotten anything trollish from them at all.
I enjoyed drag as well, though I can understand why drag was much harder for people to cope with. I always found it a fun challenge to try and speak drag-speak, and I always had fun with them otherwise just treating them as though there were nothing out of the ordinary with them. Drag talked to me about things I found interesting, and frankly there are too few regular commenters in general for me to just weed them out for harmless things. Conversation has felt a bit dead the last few weeks, and I’d love to have another quirky weirdo here to talk to most days. Way better than all the political extremists and accelerationists we never seem to fall short of.
Yeah, I don’t know if it was a bit, a troll, if they were really like that, or whatever, but other than the unorthodox pronouns, there was nothing different about talking to them. Always positive interactions with them. I hated seeing everyone here dogpile on them, as I thought a big upside of this place was supposed to be letting people just be who/what they want to be. Never saw them be rude to anyone, just asked to be called Dragonfucker/rider depending on the time period and to use drag in the place of any pronoun. With some phrasings it sounded odd, so I took it as a creative writing exercise to format my responses in a way the language flowed better. I just thought it was shitty how people couldn’t just ignore them if they didn’t want to humor drag. I don’t know if they took it serious or not, but I’d rather know I’m not being shitty to someone that is either having innocent fun, or may have some severe emotional or mental issues. We’re all real people on the other side of the screen.
Yeah. I find that my conversations with sxan are generally pleasant. If you don’t make your interactions with them centered around the thorn, they seem nice.
I used to apologize for people needlessly antagonizing them, but they said it didn’t bother them, so now I just roll my eyes people can’t get over it after so long now or just block them. That people just go around purposely doing petty shit like downvoting them in every comment is just a really sad look for those users.
I had not, no. If you’ve got specific examples I’m open to seeing them, but personally I’ve never really been the type to audit other people’s comment history.

Took me way too long trying to figure out how that has anything to do with the topic at hand.
It’s been a while since I’ve seen Drag. I wonder if Drag is okay.

Dragonfucker was not harmless. If you think they were, then you didn’t hear their opinions about suicide. Needlessly cruel and disgusting.
