Earlier today, I sent the following note. I'm going to censor the name of the deviant, but you can probably guess who it was sent to.

"I’m going to be frank. I’m the kind of person you would probably classify as a “hater.” But I’m not contacting you to bash you. In fact, I’m going to try and remain as civil as possible.

I know a lot of the people you consider “haters” consider you a pedophile due to the ambiguous nature of the girls you draw, but some of us (people like me) couldn’t care less about the content of your pictures, save for those that violate dA’s policy. Some of us dislike you because, well, you have a massive ego.

I mean, I can see where it comes from. The veritable legion of fans hanging on your every word, and the equally impressive legion that takes every opportunity to point out where you’ve made your mistakes and tear you down for them. And then there’s the case about how you’ve been banned on multiple occasions and still managed to come back.

****, what I’m trying to make you understand is that one of the main reasons people dislike you is because you have a holier-than-thou attitude. And your fans aren’t helping that at all. You constantly play the victim when your work is taken down and your legion of fans call your “haters” and the admins of dA jealous.

Nobody is jealous of you, ****. None of your “haters” care about how many pageviews you have or how many favorites you get. We just wish you would stop with the whole victim act. Your art isn’t the only art that gets taken down. People have their art removed every day, and they complain about it too. The only difference is that you have your legion of fans to feed you the same ill-contrived reason every time it happens

So I implore you. Get yourself familiar with dA’s policies and keep your art within its boundaries. You have other artsites where you can post the stuff that you can’t post on dA, so use them instead. And try to tone down the ego.

Oh, and one more thing. Please try to refrain from the anti-America stuff, would you? No one country is better than everywhere else, they all have their ups and downs.

=SANE-INTOLERANT"

I just recently recieved this deviant's reply.

"get life gay!"

ಠ_ಠ

My first complaint is about why I'm surprised at this. I mean, given the person who I know everyone can guess we're talking about here, shouldn't I have expected this? I'd understand if maybe I had thrown words like "fuck" and "pedo" and "cuntwaffle" all over the place, but I didn't. I was calm and collected, strange for me when I'm dealing with such people, and I explained my points thoroughly and offered ways in which this deviant could better themselves.

My second complaint is that it seems like the deviant didn't even take the time to READ the damn thing. Probably took one look at it, said "TEA ELLE DEE ARE" and sent back a three-word reply that doesn't even tell me anything. I mean, "get life gay?" Sounds like a homosexual life insurance agency!

tl;dr GIRUGAMESH.
