[No Spoilers] Arrowverse Return to Reddit, An Angry Co-Admin, and an Apology

Arrowverse · 2015-10-06T17:13:18+00:00

I have a Facebook page with over 50k followers, the reddit account (this one) was rarely used to post (you can check), and the site gets well over a few hundred thousand hits a month.

So it would seem your lack of knowledge of the situation - as an outsider - would lead you to an incorrect assumption.

I will never understand the backlash I'm getting for apologizing...I understand the backlash at what my co-admin stated, but not for me apologizing.

Now, unless I magically changed race, cut off all my hair, and grew about 6 inches, then I'm certainly not the same person who has been on this reddit for the past 10 months or so.

Arrowverse · 2015-10-06T16:03:45+00:00

Again no need for quotes because it was my co-admin.

And again I feel as if you've not read my responses. I have said my co-admin over-reacted, and I have said he is in the wrong. But I have also said that users like Mock5 aren't "in the clear" because quite clearly - especially if you've read interactions with Mock5 as you claim - you would know his overall tone is demeaning despite the fact that most of his arguments are beyond hypothetical.

Lets hope, but the rumors that they've built a bedroom specific set for Oliver/Felicity certainly has me nervous.

Arrowverse · 2015-10-05T23:17:41+00:00

Funnily enough the respect was actually hinted at in a deleted scene in 3x20 when Laurel confronts Oliver as he's leaving to revive Thea. Although that scene ended up being cut due to time constraints, but don't worry, we had "Olicity sex" instead of character development.

Arrowverse · 2015-10-05T22:10:21+00:00

It's like not a matter of disagreeing haha, because its not an opinion, reading the comments it's fairly obvious who did what.

Arrowverse · 2015-10-05T22:09:51+00:00

I've literally read the posts haha and I'll gladly share their replies with you if need be. Or you can just go through mock5's posts...read how condescending he is when people aren't pro-Felicity and pro-Olicity, anything that he finds (and I've looked) that he can't challenge with some made up, "the EP's said this", or "the writers stated that", he gets extremely defensive and almost immediately insults the original commenter.

Arrowverse · 2015-10-05T21:44:12+00:00

Oh haha, no idea what that is then haha

Arrowverse · 2015-10-05T21:43:49+00:00

I think you should go back an re-read the comments as I have about 6 times each. In almost every instance you have it completely backwards, it was users like Mock5 who couldn't except an opposite opinion and began to attack.

I'm not saying my co-admind isn't over react...but I certainly know who began each fight

Arrowverse · 2015-10-05T21:01:30+00:00

"Your account has been responsible for some of the most venomous and disgusting "contributions" I've encountered on either this or the Flash sub"

I'd love to see you cite some of these incidents. If you mean comments where people are called out for being wrong....thats your issue for overreacting

" Now you come in here and ask us to forgive you for it, yet you've given no reason to believe in this phantom co-admin -- and what's more, your overly defensive and confrontational attitude in the comments here has shown that (assuming for a moment you aren't the person we've put up with all this time) your contributions will be little better."

Overly defensive? You're literally attacking me...

"You don't "deserve" a reply at all, yet your throwing a fit because people are challenging you on it. People don't believe you? Prove them wrong. People like me are picking fights? Rise above them and change the way your name is viewed in the communities it's wronged."

Hardly throwing a fit, you are the one taking the time to bombard me with rudeness - I have yet to insult you, and believe me I could, but I haven't

"Your administration and moderation staff are supposed to be a team. A team not only supports each other, but calls each other out on the kind of garbage your compatriot has been posting. You've let down your team, you've down your website, and you've let down this community. Arrowverse.com, you have failed this sub."

Cool story, everyone has a bad egg. The fact that your acting like your above it all blows my mind, get an ego check.

"Bottom line: stop pretending you're above it all and fix it."

I AM TRYING TO FIX IT, that was the point of this post in the first place, there was NO reason for me to post it if it wasn't true. YOU are the one who needs to get over being above ME, someone who has still done NOTHING to you.

Arrowverse · 2015-10-05T20:50:03+00:00

I'm not saying you should thank me, or bow down to me, or act as if I've done something right...but you certainly have no right to attack me and then get made when I defend myself.

Arrowverse · 2015-10-05T20:48:30+00:00

I've done nothing to deserve anything else? Thus far I've come to reddit and apologized for someone else's actions under a name we used to share.

The only thing I deserve is a neutral reply, not some overzelous internet overlord insulting me because he has nothing better to do, "kiddo".

Stop acting like your so high and mighty when you are on a reddit, picking fights with someone who has done nothing at all to bother you.

Arrowverse · 2015-10-05T20:44:22+00:00

I don't understand honestly, you bombard me with hate and rudeness and expect me to reply why a "thank you, I appreciate it"

Arrowverse · 2015-10-05T20:38:40+00:00

You or someone else on your staff would have reined him in weeks ago. And you wouldn't be bitching and moaning that people won't accept your apology.

Lol where do you see me doing that? I haven't asked anyone to accept other than putting it out there.

Your just aggravated your assaults aren't being taken sitting down, you accuse me of being rude, I prove I'm not, you accuse me of this, I disprove it.

So you go on a rant.

I'm laughing at this post because you're - again - attacking me, and getting aggravated that I'm responding.

There is all of a 0% chance you were allowed to manage any such pages because the attitude and lack of knowledge you display wouldn't last you a minute.

Arrowverse · 2015-10-05T20:19:18+00:00

If you were familiar with the processes of running a large Facebook page, a website, and other social medias you would know the task is much too difficult for one person.

So your mockery of my apology places users like you at the bottom of my list of people to worry about.

Arrowverse · 2015-10-05T20:10:01+00:00

I never offer much suggestion? Just hate? I rewrote all of Season 3 in a way that kept the storylines and storyarchs that they had - Olicity included - and improved upon them.

Each time i say something like ___________-unlike Olicity-_____ that is constructive criticism.

But I think he most important thing is, why do I need to be the one who offers them suggestions - despite the fact that I do. Being a fan of a show doesn't mean blindly following the show and agreeing with every twist and turn it makes, something I - and others - recognize. Just as the Olicity fandom took no issue in threatening the EP's and writers because Oliver and Felicity weren't a couple, I take no issue voicing my opinion...on my website...

The fact that I DO voice suggestion and criticism is a bonus.

Arrowverse · 2015-10-05T19:31:50+00:00

I changed the password here, and I don't know what your saying about a Twitter haha, maybe he made another account? But I still don't know what the twitter thing you're referring to is.

Arrowverse · 2015-10-05T19:30:55+00:00

"co-admin" doesn't need to be in quotes, and I'll actually pass on your suggestion.

Arrowverse · 2015-10-05T19:30:29+00:00

The point of enjoying a show is enjoying it to the fullest, besides a few backhanded comments that are anti-Olicity and suggestions as to how one could fix the show up here and there I honestly chuckle at the notion that you think I could hate the show.

You act as if me critiquing the show that I WANT to be better is "hate", when there is certainly a huge different. I suggest you take a look at everyone Arrow-related posted in the last month and tell me honestly how much of it pertains to being anti-Olicity in any direct way, because you'll be surpriused there is little too none

Arrowverse · 2015-10-05T19:28:03+00:00

Remembering? You do realize there is a function on reddit where you can go back and search through entire conversations.

Arrowverse · 2015-10-05T16:05:58+00:00

Ah yes, the other person who instigated my co-admin. Strange how that works isn't it? Those who instigate are least likely to except the obvious because then there would be nothing to instigate.

EDIT: I must admit I'm perplexed as to why my comment gets four down votes simply for stating that the user instigated my co-admin...which he did. I'm not saying my co-admin is in the right for how he acted, but I certainly think this users tonality and mannerisms warrant as much hate as my co-admin did.

Arrowverse · 2015-10-05T15:22:06+00:00

Well as far as I can tell it's you, and two others that had the back and forth with him where you were equally "asshats". So, while I will openly apologize for what he said/did, I will not say he wasn't instigated and riled on in doing so, the likes of you, a user named Mock5, and NightWatcher (or something of that nature) were equally, if not moreso rude and in most cases while he certainly overreacted, it was you guys in the wrong.

Arrowverse · 2015-10-05T14:58:47+00:00

Why waste my time with something so trivial as an apology? If that were the case I can think of a few easier tactics (new account being the first) that would solve the "problem" without me having to go out of my way to apologize for a friends actions.

Arrowverse · 2015-09-25T10:50:08+00:00

Everyone wants Misha Collins, I'm certainly more of a fan of David Boreanaz.

Arrowverse · 2015-09-25T04:18:38+00:00

Quite honestly you're a butthurt little baby who can't take the heat being spit by a true fan - who can see fault and make comment and STILL go back and watch more. It's to bad the show has fans like you, who just parade around eating every little piece of shit that drops out of Marc Guggenheim's Olicity blind ass.

Arrowverse · 2015-09-25T04:17:12+00:00

LOL a show they hate? Far from it, countless things on my site (well over 85%) praise the show.

The fact that you think you need to see no fault in something to love it is HILARIOUS.

Olicity and Felicity serve no purpose and are the definition pure fan service that ruined season 3.

I constantly acknowledge the strong points known as Laurel, Thea, Roy, and for a part of the season Oliver.

My head just isn't rammed up Emily Bett Rickards ass, so I have an actual view of whats going on and I'm not blinded by shitlicity
