IMPORTANT WARNING!!!!!!
Alright y'all, I REALLY wanted to keep this private, and stay classy, but...
The user known as DuckLover is officially banned from the CDF Wyrm game. Any and all breedings their Wyrm had are now null and void. I am being harassed and threatened by them and their parent, who is threatening to show up at my home, with the threat of violence to myself and my loved ones.
Formal police charges are being filed tomorrow, both in my own home state and the state they live in according to the shipped Wyrm package and payment information.
I just want to be 100% crystal clear. Making threats to myself or my family is something I take VERY seriously, and will take EVERY legal avenue available to me to protect those I care about. This is a GAME, for the love of Pete. If a player continues to not follow rules, and have their Wyrms refunded and put back up for adoption, then the proper reaction is not to lose control and start making threats.
Ranting that you are going to report me to the IRS and get me shut down because I refuse to give out my home phone number for you to rant at me in person is not only ridiculous, and a totally invalid threat, but it makes you look absurd. As a freelance artist I am well within my rights to refuse to work for anyone, for any reason.
Sorry, not meaning to clutter up the thread with negativity. I just wanted to make folks aware that there is some hostile stuff being directed my way, and that it does NOT reflect on all of you. 99.9999999% of my Wyrm Handlers and those who want to become Wyrm Handlers are AWESOME, nice, sweet, respectful, and kind to each other, and y'all follow the rules of the game. But every once and a while, a bad apple pops up. So this post is for a few reasons. One, to make everyone aware that this person is no longer allowed to participate in the game, so any breedings they arranged are no longer allowed. (Contact me if you need help arranging new breedings, I don't want anyone else left in the cold because of someone else's bad behavior) Two, to THANK you all for being amazing, and for building such a wonderful, giving community around this game. I appreciate all the support of my art, and am very grateful for all of the people enabling me to make a living doing something I enjoy. It is the greatest gift I can imagine, and one you all have my heartfelt appreciation for. <3
Cheers, and all the best wishes to you all,
