There was a flame-war created right after I was promoted to leadership, since RedQueen left. I was good and ready and on your side until I found out what the flame-war was about. Iverglas admitted to being trans-phobic to me, and indicated you along with her. I'm unsure if you're aware of that disservice to your character, but I took it seriously. At that very point I decided to take action to try and end the flame-war, I was beyond character assassinated, and you contributed along to that. And I took that bullet as gracefully as I could, and as you're already fully aware of, a lot of people got pissed about what happened to me. But I'm not the one who told them to be pissed. I did not tell them after the flame-war was over to continue the fight. I wanted it dead and gone and resolved. But wrongs haven't been righted in the least, and I can't blame them for being mad about it still.
No one on the opposing side messaged me to get to an understanding of my actions. I tried to stop iverglas from feeding the flames, and I got what I got in return. You have a determent to your character because you took my medical information, my stress relief valve in the Mental Health Group and tried to make me look too insane to have a position I was holding firm to because I did not want iverglas in a leadership position after what she said about transgendered people, and I had everyone saying the nastiest things I've ever had said about me, in my life, which didn't help their case in letting me hand over the group. I was open to that course of action! The problem was no one tried for an instant, to be nice.
You know as well as I do that I asked for an apology for you using my mental health as a weapon against me. You stuttered off at how bipolar isn't a disease and completely dismissed me. If you're mad at BeHereNow (RIP) for bringing any attention to you doing that, then talk to her in your prayers. Because believe it or not, I DIDN'T WANT it to become public. The only goddamn good thing that came out of it was the flame-war finally settling down and stopping. That was what I was aiming for in the first place!
Not being willing to hand over a group to people who were insulting me to the core of my very being? WOW! WHAT A MESS I MADE BY BEING A PERSON WITH FEELINGS! And whether or not they were a roller-coaster, was none of your goddamn business by a long-shot. I had proven that I could be calm in front of all that, and I only survived it because I had previous experience with insults. But never to that extent, ever.
