On retaliation and raiding MSMG/other troll streaks back.
We do not stoop down to the levels of trolls in this stream.
-Attacking any other stream just means they will attack us right back, and guess who gets to ban all of them when I have others things I want to do? Me and other mods
-It’s against ToS. Harassment is against ToS, every time you break it you have a chance of getting sitewide mod repercussions. It is also stopping down to a trolls level, are we not better than them?
-If they raid us and we don’t raid them, then the situation is black and white. Site mods know exactly what is going on. The second someone raids them back, it’s now a war where both sides are wrong.
-It gives them attention. These people are trolls, they thrive from conflict. They WANT you to go and harass them so they can take screenshots and scream about how toxic LGBTQ is. They want you to go and harass them because it’s fun for them to ban you. They want you to go and harass them because that’s simply what they enjoy, conflict, and knowing they got your blood boiling.
-It hurts the safety of the stream. LGBTQ is supposed to be drama-free, a safe place with support and care. Not a war zone.
-It’s just pointless. They can’t do anything to LGBTQ if we don’t let them. Even if they somehow got some mole owner and did an Arkuum, it wouldn’t matter. LGBTQ has always followed ToS so we won’t have any trouble getting a site mod to recover the stream for us.
-It takes months getting even a mod into the stream, and the damage from the raid is gone in under two and a half hours. A counter attack would fuel more drama and more attackers during the initial attack from them.
Unfortunately they are not breaking ToS if they stay in their stream and do not come here. They are assholes, but they aren’t coming here to harass us specifically, so their stream lives on. Going to their stream and harassing them, even if you are in the right, IS breaking ToS. If you do that they have every right to ban you, and ask site mods to ban you. Don’t let trolls make you a troll, just avoid the stream.
