Now, I'm not trying to claim I'm infallible in any way; Had I found a better way to deal with this situation, I would've 100% taken it. It's just that nothing was getting to Trusti in a way that he'd understand my point of view. That, along with claiming these confrontations are my fault and calling me a r****d in another stream, is what solidified my choice in banning him.
I just wish people weren't this dense with me whenever conflict happens here...
If there's one thing that I've learned when using the internet, it's that I'm no better than the person who confronts me if I resort to confrontation, too. It's why I try to be mature whenever conflict happens on the stream.
So a little info for those who need context: I saw one of TrustiGoat's posts that, after looking closely at the comic, I assumed was an AI generated image. I noticed a few deformities that AI usually creates when generating images. I unfeatured it and told him it was an AI image. He proceeded to repost it onto the stream, which I then unfeatured again and said was AI, along with mentioning the deformities in the picture.
He then confronted me in today's thread of posts. I then saw that he posted the comic onto another stream while calling me the R word. See here: imgflip.com/i/ark88y
Trusti, I meant no harm in unfeaturing your post. If the comic wasn't AI generated, I apologize. This doesn't mean you get to call me slurs, though.
