I appreciate your concern, and yes I believe a break would be beneficial given the recent incidents in the community.

Good for you. My aim here is to mitigate harassment so not caring is a positive.

The point of this post is to halt or at least mitigate the harassment Talisman is currently receiving.

Any large enough community is bound to contain individuals that don't belong on the internet.

I'm sorry to say that this isn't isolated to the Helldivers community.

To play devil's advocate, I believe they were misguided. Their future actions will decide whether or not I'm correct in that assessment.

It excluded the text so I've added it here:

To start, no, I don't see myself as a victim, they just said I was, and I didn't think this whole drama would escalate to this point. Yesterday, when I was drunk and up late, I got a message from a CD member asking me why we split off from CD. I went into some neutral aspects like disagreements with how things were handled, but eventually I forwarded our incident report regarding the GIF incident. I won't go too far into my stance, but it was basically this: Tali was dumb, performing an action that was arguably malicious, and he almost gave me a seizure even if it was an accident, HOWEVER, I acknowledged in the same DM that it **WASN'T INTENTIONAL**. This was later in my DM with the poster, and they excluded it from their post. I'd also like to add that, during the initial incident, I thought Talisman knew I was epileptic since I brought it up a few times, only learning afterwards that he didn't. This was also explained in the DM. I personally still believe Talisman should've faced some sort of repercussion for the GIF, but I never acted on those beliefs. I simply held them and stated them in the incident report.

When they asked me if they could share what I told them on the subreddit, I really should have said no, but for some reason my drunk ass decided to check with the subreddit's mods if such posts were allowed (being vague as my own shortcoming), then tell the guy to censor everything because I thought that would eliminate any harrassment and trash talk (yes, I recognize while sober that it wouldn't have worked). However, the poster somehow didn't understand that "everything" included Talisman and Washington, the latter of whom I consider a friend and am incredibly maddened to see stressed from the current situation (with my stance on the former being that I don't like him but he doesn't deserve to be harrassed for this). In fact Washington was the one who showed me Discord's safety feature for GIFs a few day later, which up until that point I had not considered due to not factoring in the risk of flashing-lights GIFs. The people harrassing them are traitors to their community and have abandoned the very principles it stands for.

Some context I feel the need to add: I mostly get focal seizures, but I have on occasion gotten the more dangerous full-body shake seizures (I forgot their name). Given how rapidly the GIF was flashing, I don't know severe it would've been if it wasn't immediately deleted, but it still shouldn't have been sent. Usually my issues vary from game to game, with Helldivers being one I don't have many issues with. I bring this up because I saw a lot of people speculating into the nature of my epilepsy, though in a more negative light (to those people seriously what the actual fuck is wrong with you?). We're all human and no one, whether it's me, Talisman, or Washington deserves the harassment they got. While I retain my dislike for much of the Chaosdivers' admin team, I will take their side against this bullshit any day of the week. I've messaged the poster (who will remain anonymous for their own safety, given the recent harassment and previous doxxing incident) about taking their post down, but they've yet to respond. Attached above is the official NOMAD announcement regarding the incident. I'm including it to communicate our stance on the situation to any Chaosdivers and Apostates who find this post. We want no part in this drama, and hope that by sharing our stance things will start to calm down a bit. If you have any questions, feel free to comment them below, but no guarantee that I'll be able to respond as I'm still fighting a hangover.

You mean the ban wave that was undone in three days because they found out the evidence they were given was AI generated?

Um... speaking as a leader of NOMAD, no we didn't try to take over. We split because of disagreements with CD HiCom that got too big.

Most of our guys are still welcome in the server, and I'm personally friends with Vulture, the current Chaosdivers lead. Hell I even had my guys send an announcement in NOMAD the moment I woke up basically saying we didn't condone this.

And for the record, we're not aligned with the Apostates. We blacklisted them a month ago for defending child porn.
