Yeah, sadly it's not always appreciated. I've been insulted, especially mentally. Told to stay to my own buisness. People tell me "Others do it, so I can too!" or just block me right off the bat, or attempt to troll me. It's hard, and it makes it even harder to keep a level head with these people. I wish the report system wasnt bullshit too, it would make it so much easier to report stuff.

Yeah I know what you mean, I've tried telling people it's theft and then they start telling my art is theft with absolutely no logical reasoning at all. And the report system is bullshit

Yeah, they really make no sense and often act like little children, which makes me treat them as such. I did however at one point have the pleasure of being insulted by a "40" year old man, who had apparently found my tumblr blog(whatever he did there since the argument started here, I dont know) and insulted me for watching and drawing MLP stuff. Saying that not even his 10 y o daughter watched it and called me pathetic. Who's the pathetic one I wonder? A 20 y o female watching the revamp of a show she loved as a child, or a 40 y o grown man who insults young adults and throws hissy fits worse than his own child?

Haha, you're a lot like Rose. But yeah they do act like children and that is pretty pathetic. Like for example, a lot of people like Frozen and I say it's a good movie and the animation is amazing but it's just not for me, and suddenly this makes me a horrible person.

I havent seen Frozen either, but it's completely overrated. I think the only thing about it that I like, storywise, is the character of Hans, that he represents the magical mirror from the original story. That's it. The other characters are generic and plain, Olaf is nightmarefuel. Let it go is incredibly bad and poorly paced, and of course the lazy designs on Anna, Elsa and their mother. Helloooo recolors! They have time and money to spend on pointless hair animations, but not on designing similar, yet different and unique faces? Dreamworks can do it, Pixar can do it. Hell, anyone except Disney seems able to do it!

Oh and let's not forget the ridiculous fans who will love anything even if it's a complete ripoff of something else. Currently seeing that with a ponification of Elsa, only it isnt Elsa! Except it is..

Ah, hello! Pleasure to meet you. I was just mentioned over here, y'know. I'm actually currently dealing with some harassment stemming from those things.

Hi there. Sorry to hear about the harassment, I suggest you screenshot everything and report it to the staff. Dont bother sending them the screenshots though, they dont want those, just keep them as a reminder for yourself when they ask you where you were harassed, in case it was on someone else's work or such.

I have a number of times. Sadly, now I'm stuck with two people calling me out on their profiles.

You can report them for that. Call out journals are not allowed on da. Screencap both and then report them, the journals will be removed and they might actually get banned swiftly for it. 
CompassRoses's avatar
Thank you. Could you possibly report them as well? DA hasn't taken my ticket yet, and it's been two weeks.
CajesTheTabby's avatar
I dont believe I can, sorry. Da's report system is shit like that, the report has to be from the one the harassment is pointed towards. I suggest you spam them with reports until they reply.
