Oh, and for the people wondering what sort of ‘creepy’ things she sent him. Which, he obviously gave her his address willingly. I talked to her about it. It was a stuffed animal bat for his birthday because she felt bad when he felt like he was going to have a shitty birthday.
Wow, fuck that guy. I know nothing else about him and this alone is enough to make him the biggest piece of shit on the forum in my eyes.
Get shit on, @Cygnus . Just fucking peace out and never return.

I veto’d it because of the speshul snowflake behavior you exhibit. You are not a team player you are a ‘how does this benefit me and how can I be the brightest star in the sky’.
That’s not a bit consistent with @Cygnus as I’ve known him. It is consistent with the list of complaints that are so common that you can apply them to anybody and have a good chance of not getting questioned.

This is odd, but. As somebody who sends fellow MUers things in the mail from time to time, I have always supposed that anything at all might be creepy if unexpected. This is why, if I ask your address, I will tell you I plan to send something, and also tell you that I will throw your address away after. I keep that promise (until/unless we agree that snail-mail exchanges may become a regular part of our friendship) and will never send you something out of the blue. Because that’s creepy.

I can agree to disagree on the behavior. It is entirely possible for two people to have two completely different interactions with a person. It is the behavior I have seen and observed from this player. From my prospective, based on his actions on Liberation, Retro and here, that I made the right call.

We will say in a hypothetical situation that he just gave her his address on a mere whim that she wasn’t A. Planning to visit him or B. Not planning to send him something but simply for grins and giggles since I can’t think of any other reason off the top of my head someone would ask for my address. Then the responsible thing would have been to calmly and politely state ‘Hey, I’m appreciative that you thought of me on my birthday but I’m not comfortable with you sending me stuff. Could you please stop.’
If they didn’t, my first reaction would not be to go to the head of mush and expect them to stop it. That isn’t a rational thought process. I understand he’s your friend, and your trying to stick up and find a plausible reason for this reaction but it just doesn’t make any sense at all that he is a victim in this.
What does seem plausible is that they have had a falling out of their friendship and now he is slinging shit.

@MayorMccheez The ‘went to headstaff’ bit was news to me.
I’m just saying that getting a nice present in the post can be a creepy thing and pointing out that it was a nice and not creepy present doesn’t change this possibility.
Honestly, we’re more friendly than friends. We’re not close. I had fun RPing with him. I would play with him again. I’m not on Retro, and a major reason for that is that there are players and staff there where my experience has been that they do have habits of being manipulative, gatekeepy, mean, dishonest, and likely to smear-campaign others. So that happening here seems plausible to me.

OK full disclosure: that post was about how I laughed.
like a disgusted, “why is this community like this” laugh…but I kind of needed the laugh?
what a time to be alive.
