All this harassment from a lot of people in the fandom thanks to the current drama really hit him hard to the point of saying good bye to the fandom.
Lesson learned: Never make a joke
He never went anywhere, he just made one tweet saying “maybe I should hang this up” and laid off Twitter for a couple of days to avoid morons yelling at him, and people who needed something to screech about went full Chicken Little Mode over it.

Rule 0 was supposed to get rule 5s artistic merit qualifier, but it got lost in the shuffle. That’s neither here nor there, of course; DB has always operated on that principle, black-letter rules notwithstanding.

None of which would have happened if you had obeyed the rules to begin with
None of the hyperventilating arglebargle over that image would have happened if the mods had obeyed their own rules and deleted it to begin with, so that’s not quite the CHECMATE, LIBS!!1! argument you think it is. My primary complaint about it all along is that it quantifiably violates the second and fourth bullet points of Rule #0 as written, and shouldn’t have lived past the first time it got reported for it; the very first post I made in regards to it was that it should either get deleted for violating Rule #0 or Rule #0 should be changed to reflect the fact that dumb racist shitposts are officially allowed, because as it stands now the only metric being applied to dumb racist shitposts is “is this dumb racist shitpost dumb enough, racist enough, or shitposty enough for whichever mod checks the report queue to dislike it”.
@mjangelvortex
yeah, sorry if I felt rude in my message before.
The point is, at the end of the day not that many people complained to Jargon directly on twitter, compared to his followers, and at this point it would just put more salt in the wound to mention it again and bring the spotlight to it.
If bexar wants to stand out then so be it.
@Beau Skunky
It’s alright. I was a little bit too tense earlier and I sometimes have trouble understanding people when talking with them.
@Background Pony #EF9B
I think some people can be reasoned with and are capable of making compromise and change (mostly based on my own experiences).
But you also make a good point. Sometimes the opposite happens too. Some people can be stubborn and set in their ways and no matter what you do, they won’t change or listen to you if you try to reason with them (again, this happened with my own personal experience as well).
I didn’t say that he’s required by the law to do so. I just think it would be a good idea. No more, no less.
No its not. Because it would just ranimate the debate on twitter, and you saw what TWO DAYS of twitter “debate” led to. Both side throwing stuff at eachother. He isn’t directly involved with this, if that’s not enough for you, you’re free to leave, but theres literally no point of arguing about this when both sides already have clear cut opinions like Bexar here, nothing he can do can change them because after a certain threshold you are iredeemable for those people, hence it’s not worth giving them attention.
It’s kinda the same for pewdiepie, no matter what he does he’ll be labelled as a far right nazi because of 3 fucks up in the literal thousands of videos he uploaded. With one of the fucks up being just a bad joke (the sign).
@Meanlucario @Background Pony #E043
I have my doubts too but I’ve had messy arguments/disagreements before with people and having a civil discussion would sometimes help. It’s not a perfect guarantee mind you, but it can help clear up the air sometimes.
@Beau Skunky

@JargonScott
Ignore the joke Gestapo. You never had to explain anything to those of us with a functioning frontal lobe.
We aren’t entitled to your time or your work. You can hang up your boots whenever you want if this hobby stops being fun to you and you owe no one an explanation.
But I’m really glad you’re staying a while longer. This would be a duller place without you.
Don’t poke Tex. He’s intolerable enough when he’s wrong. He’s absolutely insufferable when he’s right.
I said it was a weak reply. I never said I didn’t like you. I love you. Like more than just a friend. Just work on the comebacks.
I know you’re a duck but that was just weak
It’s okay, bro, this has been wrapped up for nearly a week, you don’t need to virtue signal anymore.
“people who needed something to screech about”
were the reason he said it in the first place

He came back.

Is that because of racist jokes of zebra and twiggie?

I’d say more, but we’ve been asked to stop:

Cadance sweeping the floor is really cute
She really does seem like the sort of person who’d do that, doesn’t she. Perfectly in character for her.
Things were calming down actually, before you said anything. Cool it, and take your own advice.
Didn’t you say you were going to unsub, or are you that obsessed like some kind of weird stalker?
I’m not on edge…

I understand. I think this situation has made a lot of us angry and on the edge lately and you make some good points.

Didn’t say you were, I was being facetious with that remark, not accusing you, sorry.
She really is.
