Just like to post this here http://imgur.com/a/916lX9U
I'll be straight, I did NOT handle this correctly, and in no way should that be forgiven. HOWEVER, I was pushed to this point mostly due to how frustrating it is that things were allowed to escalate to this point.
Here's where it all started, about a month or less ago, I helped in reporting NoFace for targeting and metagame on BR. Immediately following his ban, I received DM's from Dorian, a friend of his I guess. He was upset I got NoFace banned, and complained about me being a "bitch" whenever possible. I blocked him, and hoped that was the end of it.
Later, Crimson got in on the mix, shown at the start of the Imgur Album. I didn't give it much attention when I saw it, and hoped it would end there.
Sadly, as shown in the Album, it didn't, eventually escalating into the showdowns on Discord yesterday and the episode just now.
Sure, you could say I should've just blocked him, and it would've likely ended there. But I dislike others being able to talk bad about me without me being able to defend myself. Blocking only allows them to speak their mind without direct confrontation.
My behavior was wrong, probably enough to nullify my member app, and it honestly should. But the fact that by helping out the community and doing the right thing and assisting in stopping a known metagamer resulted in being harassed and vilified without any help from staff is what annoys me more than anything Crimson or Dorian said.
