Shaper, I will try to explain this as clearly and publicly as possible.
First, I had you threadbanned from the SV thread, and then put you on "ignore", because you were causing problems to other players.
You consistently tried to push theories that made very little sense given the narrative of the quest, and you were frequently rude to other people.
And most egregiously of all, players who disagreed were being quietly temporarily-threadbanned. And that happened enough players, and "conveniently" right after they responded to one of your messages, to make it clear that you were reporting them for "personal attacks", and the more stringent moderators of the old site were happy to comply.
It came to the point that several other players,
separately and out of their own volition sent DMs to me asking me to do something about you.
A quest is a community effort. I am a story-seller who hopes clients will come for my update-kebabs, and who hopes they will like it enough to come again some other time. For free. And if you come into my small charity shop and start making everyone else's experience worse, my only reaction will be to ask you to leave.
Second, I didn't mind you participating in this thread because, to put it simply, there are no SV moderators here to "mysteriously" punish people who get into arguments with you.
However, one of the first things you did when you entered this thread was to-
It's a shame you lack the reading compression to
-be gratuitously rude to someone else.
And right now you felt the need to-
I had been a very loud voice saying that rape would be totally out of character
(I was wrong about the QM).
To prevent my anti rape stance from being disruptive when he introduced more rape Bird kicked me out of the thread.
-paint an image that I kicked you out because you were "vocally against rape". Which in turn -and pardon me if I
lack reading comprehension- would mean that I was trying to (1) push a story that was pro-rape, and (2) that I am in the habit of threadbanning readers who disagree with me.
I will be very clear. I do not mind criticism directed towards my writing. I do not mind people disagreeing with me. But I very much do not like it when people paint a false image of me... for no cognizable reason other than their own skewed interpretation of events.
SO.
Let me be very clear.
I have nothing against you personally. But if you keep derailing the thread conversation away from the story itself, I'll either put you on "ignore", ask a moderator if they can threadban you, or both.

; I don't want to be spending it all on (reading and replying on) forums. (Sidenote: There is a bit of self-selection as on every "social media" that people who like and have the time for a platform will be overrepresented, sometimes in a Pareto-like way.)
