So somebody downvoted every single one of my stories, · 2:39am Nov 25th, 2013
To my followers who were expecting something important, I apologize. I couldn't think of any other public way to post this, and I wanted there to be a record instead of just sticking it in a text box. As a consolation for wasting your time with internet drama, I will be trying to get a new chapter of Her Body Was Cold up next week.
So somebody downvoted every single one of my stories, or at least it looks that way from the time stamps. I have a habit of spewing questionably helpful advice on every piece of dull erotica I read, so there's a lot of potential culprits. It's also possible that a moral guardian did it based on the content.
I'm not mad; incensing petty people is nothing new on the internet (if anything, it means whatever I did fit in perfectly with my usual policy of not pulling punches). On the off-chance that the person sees this, I would encourage you to PM and confront me directly. This petty act of vandalism (can something so minor even count as vandalism?) is neither emotionally healthy nor terribly effective. If you have a problem with me then say so instead of using these pointlessly passive-aggressive techniques.
EDIT: someone else did it, so there's that
How mature of them.

Don't worry about it.
I just countered by making sure every story of yours was upvoted, then read the ones I haven't to make sure I wasn't doing something stupid.
It wasn't.
Now I need more necrophiliac ponies.
Fuck.
1545855 Lol, thanks
The downvotes don't really bother me; it's more the principle of the thing. If someone has a problem with me I'd rather deal with a direct confrontation than anonymous pettiness

Oh I know, I'd rather a downvote with a "This is where you fucked up" rather than just a downvote for no reason.
Or even petty reasons. "Well, this fic has a human in it, I'll downvote because that does nothing.", "Wow this fic has Twilicorn in it, better downvote that fast", "Shit nigga, this fic gots a letter Z in it, better downvote as quick as I can", "I can't read, but I sure as hell will poke that down-tumb, I think it looks cool."
1546926 I don't think there's anything in the rules forbidding downvoting someone's stories because of some misplaced vendetta. Mods have banned people for upvoting their own stories with alts, but that's much easier to track than someone being annoyed.
Okay, I admit it, I was the guy to downvoted your stories. Now, you may guess that I did this after your recent drama on my newest story, but I actually did this after your comment on Kaidan's story. It goes without saying that my intentions to remove these downvotes after seeing you behaving the same way on my story just further boosted my disgust.
However, in the end, as I've realized now, it was just a pathetic and immature excuse to vent out frustration because, god forbid, someone has a different opinion than me on the internet!
I'm still not entirely over this drama, but after you apologized for your mistake here I think it's only fair to say sorry for my mistake and remove these downvotes. I should've known better than to get back to you in such an immature way.
Sorry for this inconvenience. Truce?
1553639 I had already chosen to ignore you (I guess my comments weren't very clear about that), but if you want to make it official that's fine by me.
