Callout Post On A Tumblr User

Callout Post on a Tumblr User

Hello.

Mod Ari here

With the expansion and traction that my blog receives, there are the case of people who aren't welcome here.

This is one of those users, who crossed the line and viewed it as an accomplishment.

I am talking about a user who was both in the Toxic Chain Server and who has sent asks to my account.

Their name is shovelthesaw (as of righting this blog, that's their name. I also do not know their pronouns but to be respectful I'm just going to be using they/them)

Trigger warning for mentions of s*icide. If this upsets you, please look away. The information will be under the cut

At first, their asks were alright. Simply asking some of the characters about certain Godzilla characters. While I know nothing about the franchise, I simply tried my best to answer and give a response In-character

Until, I recently got this ask:

And while I am fine with people not liking Dokutaro (He's an asshole and a jerk. It's fine to not like him).

However, I am VERY AGAINST telling characters or people to off themselves. Even if the character is fictional, suicide is a VERY HEAVY and troubling topic, especially to those who have had lost loved ones or almost lost ones to suicide. I do NOT stand for this kind of behavior on my blog.

Now, I responded to that ask out of character and let them know that this was okay. But here was their response (now deleted since I blocked them)

I'm sure you can see why this behavior is unacceptable.

Shovelthesaw, rather than learn from his mistakes and realize that IT IS HIM THAT IS THE PROBLEM, views his bans from server as nothing more than an accomplishment, a source of pride for him.

He treats me stating my boundaries and enforcing a new rule (that should've been common knowledge to begin with) as nothing more than a joke.

I am usually not one to make these kinds of posts, but I am doing this to simply spread awareness about their behaviors.

I am not encouraging any kind of harassment towards this person. All I ask is for you to simply block and not engage with him.

Thank you for your time. Stay safe out there, and do not interact with this person.

- Ari
