stop with the "can you guys agree on something, can't you see you're both coming together for this?" shit, it's manipulative as shit, and you're trying to pull up a "bright side" of what you're doing, and it's disgusting.

you have no authority to try and play "I'm trying to bring people together" BY STEALING AND REPOSTING PEOPLES ART without permission to try and exploit a wack ass loophole that doesn't fucking exist because some of y'all have NO CONCEPT OF BOUNDARIES AND CAN'T TAKE "NO, LEAVE ME ALONE, DON'T INTERACT WITH ME" AS A FUCKING ANSWER.

In order to stop this from happening again, @lotus-and-sides had taken both the url @grapetakesyourshit and the parody blog @peartakesgrapesshit's url after they were deleted.

I understand that this was a stressful and frightening experience, and that a lot of people have left the fandom/stopped making u!sides content because of this.

Grape has asked for people to delete the reblogs of her posts, as she wants this whole ordeal to be forgotten. You obviously don't have to, but as a fandom I would appreciate if we tried to grow forward from this instead of remaining scared.

When I asked, she refused to apologize, so I'll apologize for her; I'm sorry. I'm sorry about the hurt this has caused and the vast negative impact this has had on people and the community.

My dms are always open to talk.

First...

It's only been like a day that I've been gone.

Two...

It's more than the grape copy cat, it's how people have been treating others who like to make Unsympathetic Sides content, it's my recent moving out, it's a lot of things that have just started to pile.

I won't be gone forever, but I do need a break from this.

I've been writing down my prompt ideas, so when I do come back I can post them and they won't be forgotten.

In fact don't send anything by anyone to them. Block them. Report them if they took your content.

Don't even waste your breath sending hate though. That will not help this already shitty situation.

I can't believe this shit is starting up again. So! Since this new piece of scum doesn't just repost u!sides content, they steal all sanders sides content, and because I'm paranoid that my stuff may be stolen in the future, all fics are currently on hold. Have fun with no sanders sides fics or art from me for a while!

I may not make my own unsymp content, but I know just how much it sucks to get your work stolen with no remorse. But for right now, I don’t think there’s really anything that can be done, they’re not going to stop until all 25 posts have been posted anyway, no matter what we do.

Here is a nice comprehensive list on why what you're doing is shitty and why you need to fucking stop.

1. You're disrespecting the boundaries set by other people. People set boundaries by blocking others. Its that simple. By reposting art, writing, or anything by a blog with the express purpose to send it to people the creators have blocked, you have violated their boundaries.

2. You are potentially putting the people creating the content in danger. By reposting things without permission and creditting you are potentially exposing dangerous people who have been blocked to the blog content, to the blog content. I personally have several people on my block list that are blocked because if they saw my posts I would be in danger, not to mention that without the block function I would have loads of anon hate to deal with.

3. You're disrespecting boundaries 2.0. A lot of us have blogs blocked because they are on out DNI lists and we do NOT want them to interact with our content. By giving people we do not want interacting with our blogs a platform to interact with out blogs, you're disrespecting boundaries.

4. You have not gotten permission. You have not attempted to gain permission from the content crestors in order to repost their work. This means that you are stealing our work. Furthermore, creditting us does not do much given that you created the blog to spread our content to people we do not want seeing our content.

5. You're being blatantly shitty to the creators. By actively disregzrding the creators wants, desires, and wishes, along with stealing our content and putting us in potential danger, you have been absolutely shitty to the creators. It is not your fucking job to ignore our boundaries, disregard our wants, and steal our content. You are not helping by adding credits, nor are you being kind. You are blatantly hurting the creators you ""like"" by creating a platform that is complete shit and harmful to the creators.

6. You are literally stealing our work. As previously explained before, since you have not gotten permission to repost our work you are stealing it. By showing our content to people we do not want seeing our content you are stealing our work. By reposting our work you are stealing our work. Your url literally implies that you are stealing our work. Everything about your blog is built on the premise that you are stealing our work. I'm under the assumption you've passed kindergarten and know why stealing is bad.
