Fuck it.

[@ember-evergarden]

Buddy, you sure are late on this take. Humans literally can't along in real life, what makes you think hiding behind the anonymity of a screen will change that?

[@Garbagevideoplatform]

​​@@ember-evergarden Because modern social media tends to have the innate effect where producing outrage drives the most traffic, and incentivizing it in some cases generates the most revenue, with disregard to facts and other boundaries well-adjusted people set between each other irl. If you found it hard to understand why OP said they no longer found social media as worth it, you're being an "um acktually" 👆🏼🤓 while not even saying anything remotely smart. No shit humans fight with each other you clown, but with the way twitter is set up, it makes that environment worse for real discourse. You also answered your own question; anonymity plays a huge part in feigning responsibility of one's actions online. But idk why I'm explaining this to someone too dumb to figure this out themselves, assuming you're already familiar with creatures like Lionel or places like 4chan.

[@Xana_K]

Love ya Xeno but Spudz is correct. After almost 10 years I've just come forward and reported my own experience to the police. But I have very little, almost 0 evidence. I delayed reporting out of pure fear, thinking I'd never be believed, and also from the sheer impact of the trauma and having to relive it all over again. I agree we need evidence I'm not arguing on your points for a minute because I actually agree with you. But I just want to say that there are more victims out there with 0 evidence than you'd think. Especially when it comes to grape or SA. Grape and SA crimes are not always violent either. These are things that happen in a most intimate setting where there are no witnesses. It's incredibly hard. For me as a victim having everyone say "we don't believe you" is incredibly hard, and a reason I delayed reporting to the police. In fact whilst I was in a relationship with my abuser, when I tried to reach out and tell people what I was going through, people sided with him and acted like I was a crazy woman. It was heartbreaking and traumatising that some people can just dismiss it without even taking the time to see. If you know the person intimately, if it's your friend or family member or they've been in your life for a while, maybe they don't have evidence but you can have a deep conversation about it, see what their body language is, can they give you details, how do they act and react? You can sense a liar a mile off in a conversation like that because nothing adds up. People who invent abuse make me absolutely sick, and they absolutely do. Often the perpetrators of abuse do this To discredit the actual victim. It's disgusting so I understand the entire argument of needing evidence. An outsider, a stranger could never know who's honest and who's not :(

[@Second_UNIT]

I hope things can get better for you. As someone who also suffered an assault that had to go unreported due to lack of evidence, I still have to agree with Xeno's take simply because of the state of the internet at large. People making shit up for sympathy or clout have ruined things for people like us, but I can understand why it's there. We are not the problem; we suffer because of the actual problem.

[@Dylan-ko2dv]

[@Prism_Heavy]

I agree with you completely OUTSIDE OF THE GAME. Please don't mix up what people spewed at Xeems on Twatter and actual grape to harassment in ffxiv. The actual message has been turned into "well what if..." real life scenarios when the original message was about harassment in XIV. I'm a survivor myself. If you're uncomfortable in the game, leave that circle and block those people immediately. The initial comment was about in-game activities. I'm not sure how it got so convoluted, and THAT is why people are upset with Xeems. He's talking about online interactions, everyone else is talking about irl.

I've always been under the mindset of that I'll believe victims but I'd still like proof. I want to give people the benefit of the doubt and trust them but the truth of the matter is that people lie, not everyone can be trusted and evidence is needed. I'm a woman myself and I raid, I believe that a lot of my fellow women have suffered a lot of abuse and ignoring over things they can't control but there are vindictive people, there are people who just hate others and want them to suffer retribution for things in the past. What we should do is trust victims but not 100% unless they can provide evidence, some insane people do have platforms they use to manipulate the truth, especially during situations like these where public opinion can easily be swayed.

[@PieniPingviini]

imho in these types of situations stuff like arthars' comments about how "it takes two hands to clap" is not very productive because once again it puts the blame of being manipulated and led on by another person on the victim, not the perpetrator. I also don't know why two big content creators are hijacking the whole conversation, reducing it to "drama" and with that direct even more weirdos to also harass the people who are coming forward WITH evidence of mistreatment. Like this is not benefiting anyone except the people making bank on clickbait "drama" videos.

[@PriestEater]

as a trans person it's so frustrating when other trans people do this. being trans doesn't automatically put them on a pedestal of goodness and correctness. it shouldn't be career ending to disagree with a trans person's take and making it out to be a sexual issue on xenos's part is just fucking weird and extremely revealing on their part.

This is such a stupid hill to die on for twitter. If they knew anything about Xeno. They'd know he would be the most vocal advocate for this when evidence actually comes out. Which is more likely and common than people like to pretend. Especially if this happened over a long period of time. Xeno is the guy you want in your corner cause he will go the extra mile for you. Xeno doesn't play the accusation/allegation game and that's all they care about so he is now enemy number 1 I 100% knew this was going to get out of control after I saw the sfia drama. A lot of these people are from the biggest and most toxic FF14 discords. That's actually how the Sfia dogpill happened so quickly. They love this crap. They fester for so long inside their echo chambers that every time they poke their head out. They are even more extreme than the last time.

As a former raid lead in WoW, and an assault survivor... a LOT of people try to lie about people they don't like. One great example is when I was in a private call with a shot caller in my group. I was messaged and told he had been harassing a girl in the group. I asked them to take a screenshot of the convo, and it all looked pretty legit. I asked the guy to show me their dms on a discord stream... nothing. Not even her messages that were in the fake messages. Later I found out the girl was rejected by him and wanted to take his spot from him. She had made an alt to have a conversation with herself. You truly can't trust people at their word anymore. This isn't to say you shouldn't support the person making the claims... Just that you shouldn't ruin someone's life with no evidence. Hope this dies down soon tbh

The “believe all women” thing was such a haphazard phrase and poisoned so many people without critical thinking skills. The reason that phrase exists isn’t because women are always right and telling the truth, it’s because they’re victimized more often than men. The phrase people should have used is “take all potential victims seriously.” But that doesn’t fit in a hashtag nicely.

[@RiskOfBaer]

It's not because it didn't fit the hashtag or didn't sound as catchy. It's because the goal WAS to have people believe all women without question, so they could do exactly what they did to Johnny Depp or Pro Jared. That was the literal goal, they just wanted the power to do that. And, of course, now it has backfired and the pendulum has swung the other way. Now people don't just question a woman who makes accusations without proof, they are actively less prone to take any accusations seriously because of all the fake accusation scandals. And you know what, good! That's what you get for actively misusing the power you've been given.

Crazy to see it happen to the FFXIV content creators now, which are far more chill than the Destiny 2 content creators (excluding people like Byf and Aztecross. Datto I dislike because he comes off as an armchair game dev)

[@DeusGamez]

some of the hate is warranted though because from what i have seen most if not all the main ffxiv content creators are a bunch of hypocrites and liars and not to mention they are sell outs and flip on dime as long as the money keeps flowing in their bank account(s) SE says to jump and they will say "how high?" only real creators i've seen are sadly ones who were former WoW junkies (Zepla, Preach, etc) who had honest opinions with no pussy footing around the negative things or trying to dodge or deflect that something is bad etc. for fear of being "cancelled" by the "mobs"

[@crimsonshadow1477]

These people need to genuinely get offline and do something with their sad little lives...good lord, evidence for an accusation used to be the norm, least far as I remember

Man we need a big content patch soon cause everyone is going insane during this content draught.

[@Ruteru01]

Can people just recall the depp trials? please?

[@macho10101]

I have never really seen much of your content just saw it sometimes popping up. I always thought u were a pretty decent nice guy from what i saw, And after seeing all the stuff on twitter i still gave you some benefit of the doubt. Maybe you used your words wrong or something like that however seeing the most recent clips (which came directly from your streams) any of those doubts are completely gone. Idk laughing at victims seem pretty vile to me and defending those abusers as well doesnt seem right to me. And there is so much proof of them being terrible people like the amount of screenshots i see flying by. I am a guy and even i feel genuinely uncomfortable by them. I will probably never understand why you would rather defend these abusers instead of being against this sort of behavior and support the victims instead. even if you dont agree with the victims i think its really strange to cheer for the abusers in general.

[@gypsysol9902]

Reminds me of the whole "believe all women" thing. And since this is the FF14 community.... yeeeeah. Super wild they are going after Happy thoe. Bro is critical about hunt train, gets branded a threat to the hive mind, lol.

[@Xyrenos]

What does he not like about hunttrains?

[@chef416]

Not allowed to criticize archaic pieces of content that a certain community of brainlets seems to think they "own".

[@chelsthegameruiner8669]

​@@XyrenosMight have to do with how it works now. In ShB, people would wait for players before pulling the boss whereas now (at least on my DC), people rush the train and it often results in people missing on the rewards since the game can't load in everything at once. It's definitely more frustrating now because I'd love to get the mounts but people rushing the boss makes it difficult

[@Xyrenos]

100% approval of his criticism from me then. The peak hour bullettrains are horrible if 200+ people rush around and you get stuck at the aetherite to change instances for too long you always miss the first mark. At least some trains let everyone change instance before announcing next target but I guess having 36 marks per train somehow makes people feel the need to rush it.

man. i think xeno is really good at explaining himself. i know I don't. i have arguments on reddit and sometimes even on youtube over basically nothing. in some cases i am purposefully being a bit of a cunt, but just imagining i was a content creator and had to think about everything i say is frightening.

[@EdgeGilid]

some people on twiiter just get mad just for the sake of being mad.

[@ElienKerdan]

Here's a tip for the people on Twitter: If you want to get rid of content creators then DON'T harass them, because all they will do is take your actions and use it to generate yet more content. Content creators exist by the grace of their subscribers and viewers. So if you really want to get rid of these guys then the answer is simple - Don't subscribe to them, don't watch them and don't interact with them.

[@DeusGamez]

thats one way to go about it but if you really want to stir the pot and get a reaction out of them test their ego lol if they can't laugh at themselves or handle any criticism thats how you know you've succeeded in making them break.

[@RyuNoZero]

I hope he reads comments like yours. Like, Xenos, it's not about forcing you to believe people. It's about treating a horrible subject with the grace it deserves. All Xenos is doing is screaming EVIDENCE EVIDENCE EVIDENCE over and over.

[@FuraiAwayNao]

[@NatiiixLP]

Why is "lusting after trans people" being used in a derogatory way by a person who claims to be trans themselves? Also, is this referring to Xeno's futa jokes? Twitter is so deranged, I can't even tell what half the replies are trying to say.

did people forgot that you can disagree with someone just because you had different views? not every time must always because who you are (trans, religion, race, etc) Imagine having them at work join discussion on a meeting room, they must be always slamming the door each time their idea got rejected 🤣

[@ikeaira8701]

Classic Twitter, people need to stop going into XIV(or ANY MMO) like a Dating Sim and a complete replacement to their social life. There are so many mentally unwell people who *live* in these kinds of games and will almost never come out of it on a positive note with all parties involved. There's the 1% that do, but that's such a rare occasion that doesn't apply across the board. Funnily enough, I've noticed with my time in the game through both witnessing and experiencing it that a lot of these people are heavily involved with the RP community. That's all I have to say on that, and I'm sorry to anyone that is currently involved; or interested, with that side of the game. Again, finding that good RP group is a 1% turning out positive just like with Dating in-games. TL;DR: Please step away from the game(or social media for that matter) when you find yourself bored or wanting more in life via a Partner or a Social thing and get out there in the real world. This game especially (and Games in-general) just isn't the place for it unless you're lucky.

@@zedorian6547 eeehhh, I would of written more but this simplified version gets enough of the point across lol But if anyone does wish to elaborate on it further, please feel free to in the replies o7 I enjoy reading other experiences & thoughts, but I probably won't reply

[@Prism_Heavy]

Absolutely fucking facts. I quit RP'ing in the middle of Endwalker due to people being absolutely psychotic. I'm not sure how else to describe it, but that's what happened. I started in Stormblood, was a baby rp'er, then got big into it in ShB and I was having the time of my life. Then EW dropped and it's like everyone lost their damn minds. I remember once I got reported due to using the wrong pronouns on someone's character. Can't rp about anything, you're always in the wrong, everything triggers people, it's a clusterfuck. As you said, people need to actually go touch grass. XIV is NOT REAL LIFE. They need fucking help, badly. Now I just log on to do roulettes. Only do trusts in dungeons. Don't speak in chat. I am in nothing anymore in terms of the community. It's worse than any mmo I've ever been in. And for context, I've played wow and league for 10+ years. It's telling when I'd rather get called slurs by a couple of league players over the mental gymnastics xiv limsa afk'ers try to pull on you.
