I'm just happy this is over

TRIGGER WARNING:  THIS GOING TO BE A CALL OUT JOURNAL  WITH LOTS OF CURSING SO IF YOU DON'T LIKE THAT THEN LEAVE
 

 
So it turns out those bitches were actually just one bitch, huh?
 
Firstly, fuck your apology because I don't accept it.
 
It's funny how even after you leave you still have to play victim, like you didn't mean for this to happen.  Like it wasn't your fault. And what "friends" exactly are you talking about because last time I checked everyone hated your ass.  People hated you so much that you literally talked to yourself in different personas like crazy person-
 
 
I am indeed a smart ass, but unlike you who is a dumb ass I am not 12.  I'm 16 and I was 14 when you first started harassing me. That doesn't make you look any better though lmao-
And exactly why do yo
 <da:thumb id="546780510"/>  Wowowow Grosssssss [ tw: swears ] // sorry I'll add them all later
it's eight thirty I'm so angry wow great job. At this point I'm not even afraid of this person anymore, they've harassed me and my friends and people I look up to and the worst part is, I used to worship the tainted fucking dirt they walked on. I used to suck up to them so hard before I was alerted to this the first time, by Kxnsas's and Alaskaaaa's callout journal. Breathe, Sam. It's over, finally.
Now I've only had contact with Katie as 'katie' (?????) I guess when she messaged me on her Florida calling me out for my Mideast OCs and how I should not be representing things like an older war they went through. See the things that were discussed were wars that occurred over 30 to 50 years ago, and she claimed that I was twisting her words around and being overall whiny. I was so upset by it I deleted the message, and even now when I think of Florida I think of her and i
  DisgustingYesterday (and today) was probably exactly what our parents warned us of when we all were 12 and getting into the internet lol
how people will lie about their identities to get on our good side and end up hurting us
but in this case its not pedophilia its an honest to god fraud in a community meant for fucking HETALIA and OCs and it's even more pathetic this way
and i'm partly at fault here for not standing up against it earlier.
YOU GUYS KNOW I HATE POSTING RANT JOURNALS OMG THATS WHY I NEVER DO IT
BUT THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT TO ME AND MY FRIENDS
BUT IT IS A RANT SO GO AHEAD AND TURN AWAY IF YOU DON'T WANT TO READ IT <33

  a very important PSA + update/tipsUPDATE 3; 12/3/2016
Yesterday, the man whose photos she used to pose as Colin finally saw the message I sent him over a year ago (he didn't get a notification for a message request on Facebook). He was understandably very upset once he had all the relevant information and proof, and through mutual friends and, I assume, former classmates of his and Katie's, the girl whose photo was used as "Macey" has also been contacted, as well as the real Colin, whose name she stole.
It makes me so, so happy to know that the two most relevant victims of this, victims of real, actual identity theft, now know what happened and can take action if they so choose.
UPDATE 2; Edited information to be more comprehensive, with archived links and fixed broken links. 
UPDATE 1; She's returned, so just be aware. Note me if you are truly concerned and want her new account, I will not be releasing it here. I just ask that you do not hara
 <da:thumb id="546740913"/> <da:thumb id="546788031"/> 

and there'll probably be more. Long story short: the person you know as Colin is actually someone named Katie, and is a huge fraud and if you go through the other journals, you may understand just how terrible this person has been. The funny thing is that from the very beginning I thought they were all the same person because their behaviour was so fucking in-sync that I struggled to distinguish Colin and Katie. I didn't even need to dig up all this proof that they were the same person, you could easily tell from the art with its very little differences and the typing style and the overall attitude. So cheers to the people who were able to confirm what I've suspected all along. Super nice.

I've been keeping it in for a long time, but 'Colin' was literally that person who was friends with some of my friends who couldn't see 'him' for the actual trash of a person he is. I'm actually pretty ecstatic that this subject is finally getting exposure.

I know there are lots of people who feel personally victimised by Colin/Katie/etc's actions and to tell the truth, I'd say I'm technically a minor victim, considering how much of a grudge she had against me for months. She threatened to call out Jones, but apparently she wanted to call me out too but she was 'too scared to'? lol ok sure. that's really cute. C:

But in all honesty, I am going to address this bullshit. Throughout all the issues I personally had in regards to all this, Jones was the only one who really stood by me and saw it all for what it really was. I've been disrespected, I've watched and experienced my friends getting disrespected by this person EVEN FRIENDS WHO WERE LOVELY TO KATIE, KATIE WAS STILL AWFUL BEHIND THEIR BACKS. I've watched as Katie will literally tear down people she claims to be friends with/support just to defend herself.

And you know what gets to me? I've watched my friends try to brush off all this toxic behaviour and still be friends and I just can't help but think:

LISTEN YOU LITTLE SHITS: IF YOU HAVE A GOOD FRIEND WHO IS CLEARLY UNCOMFORTABLE WITH YOU BEING FRIENDS WITH SOMEONE WHO OBVIOUSLY HAS A BACKGROUND OF BEING NASTY AND STILL CONTINUES TO BE NASTY, YOU'RE ACTUALLY BEING REALLY SHITTY TO THEM IN STILL BEING FRIENDS WITH THE NASTY ONE???
That's how it becomes so fucking common that everyone knows 'that person who is friends with your friends and you feel like the only one who can see just how shitty they are'. And that is an awful and isolating feeling.

And guess what? It's been exposed! The person me and so many others knew was awful is... 

PLOT TWIST! THEY ARE AWFUL! WOW! WHAT A CRAZY DEVELOPMENT! AWFUL PERSON WHO HAS BEEN AWFUL FOR YEARS, HAS A HISTORY OF BEING AWFUL IS STILL AWFUL!

It's not a fucking new thing. I'm all game for people changing their ways and actually acknowledging all of their wrongs, but this person hasn't done that. Katie likes to do half-ass apologies and then try to move accounts and escape those she's wronged ONLY TO FIND MORE NEW PEOPLE TO WRONG. I'm really waiting to see if Katie will ever actually learn, and actually show it through future interactions. Until then, all I can see is that she is downright terrible.

A fraud. A backstabber. Someone who plays the victim card everytime she's committed a wrong. Someone who literally keeps digging themselves further and further into a hole. Someone who will create fake identities just to form a clique and harass others. Someone who will hold grudges even against those they've had minimal interaction with. Someone who will try to claim all these different ethnic backgrounds and backstories in order to pretend they know what they're talking about. Someone who has offended actual people from those backgrounds in doing so. The list goes on. Nice.

The thing is - I'm actually a really chill person. I don't feel particularly bothered by what Katie thinks of me. I couldn't care less. Most of the time I have a really blank and tired expression, and even right now I'm sitting here and thinking I could do with a stack of waffles. It's really rare that I'm so against a person that I could say so much negativity about them. I prefer to look for the best in people. I tried to give Katie/Colin/Spongebob/whatever identity/fucking minions/Alex/Macey/Macen/IDEK the benefit of the doubt. Even when she was rude to me, I was always calm and even trying to understand her point of view.

It's a pretty sweet gig when I try to give someone the benefit of the doubt only to find that they talk shit about me and my friends. I love it when people do that! lmao.

That was exactly what I needed to confirm that what we have indeed is a giant fucking cunt of a person. It's not often that I find someone so despicable. It's kinda cute. This lil cutie decided to cross the line and victimise my friends, and friends of my friends and even people who I've seen around, who I do sympathise with. I don't tend to care when people talk shit about me, because I have no respect towards people who have a problem with me who can't take me aside and say it to my face. That's why I didn't care about threats of calling me out. Go on. Talk shit. Oh wait, that's right, too scared! //shrugs/ Well that was a life ruiner for me. OH THE HUMANITY THIS PERSON MIGHT TRY SAY SOMETHING ABOUT ME IN A PUBLIC SPACE. OH NO...

But what drives this journal ultimately is the notion of a person who wants to fuck around with my friends. NOBODY GETS TO FUCKING TOUCH MY FRIENDS AND MAKE THEM FEEL LIKE SHIT. NOT ON ANYONE'S GODDAMN TURF.

Seriously, you could say what you like about me. Think what you like about me. But I won't stand to see my friends get hurt. Don't you be that person who will sit around while venomous behaviour is going on and upsetting your friends. DON'T BE THAT PERSON.

UPDATE!!

My interpretation of my homeland NZ by melondramatics

to tell the truth I have more than one reason behind the eyes. Here we go, here we go, here we go.

this is kind of a response to Katie, who was absolutely livid that I disagreed with her reasoning behind giving her Venezuela blue eyes.

For one thing, I never forced her to change it because I disagree. I just made the suggestion that the feature didn't seem very accurate for a Venezuela OC and that her reasoning didn't seem hugely valid.

The reason I thought it wasn't valid to give a Latin American OC blue eyes because of positioning along the coastline and how the ocean plays an important factor into Venezuela's daily life is for the following:

- TONS OF NATIONS AROUND THE WORLD LIVE ALONG THE COASTLINE AND HAVE A CLOSE CONNECTION TO THE OCEAN.

By that logic, let's give my Philippines blue eyes! Never mind that blue eyes are super duper rare in the Philippines because hey, she's only made up of thousands of islands in the Pacific Ocean and well, she's super closely connected!

Let's give Indonesia and the rest of the ASEAN archipelago blue eyes!

LET'S GIVE EVERY COUNTRY WHO HAS A COASTLINE ALONG A MAJOR OCEAN BLUE EYES!

Brazil, you have tons of coastline, where are your blue eyes? Chile, Chile HEY BABE. WHERE'S YOUR BABY BLUES TO ACCOMPANY YOUR COASTLINE.

Mexico, where's your blue eyes? m8 m8 m8 YOU HAVE SO MUCH COASTLINE AND CONNECTION let's give raquel/alejandra/yessi/etc blue eyes

Never mind that it's far more common in most of those countries to have brown/black eyes. In Venezuela, I've heard that blue eyes are super rare and that in the region where it's 'most common', IT'S NOT EVEN THAT COMMON.

To be blunt, I disagreed with Katie because while the genetics argument comes into play, it was the explanation that was so piss-poor that it could be applied to almost every nation around the world. It wasn't special to Venezuela, it was just aesthetics fulfillment. Now, if the reason given was super thought out and oh so specific to Venezuela, I may have been more lenient.

But even then, I was never rude to Katie. Never in my critiques am I rude to people. I always try to make my critiques as balanced as possible. Nobody has ever felt personally victimised by me to the point of scrapping their OCs. But Katie took it upon herself to be rude and hostile to me even though I never bashed her OC, I never bashed her as a person. I was civil. And when you're civil, that doesn't always mean you have to agree or say you were wrong when someone disagrees with what you've said. I was civil in that despite all of Katie's hostility, I stood my ground. I never forced the critique, I merely said I stand by my point and it's OKAY if she wants to disagree and keep the feature. I EVEN TOLD HER SHE DIDN'T HAVE TO AGREE.

So here I thought that was that.

And a few months later, I actually forgot about the existence of that Venezuela OC because it was really insignificant to my life as a whole. I'm not the sort of person who takes every little thing to heart. I have a life of my own and honestly, there are better things for me to do than to continually think about people who get hostile at even the kindly worded critiques and then prepare to fetch their fraud army to bitch about you for implying that any character of theirs could use some improvement. Really.

But then came this attack on one of my OCs. Apparently it is unfair that I give my New Zealand OC gray eyes yet criticise a Venezuela OC for blue eyes.

BITCH, MATE. GUESS FUCKING WHAT.

1) Actual Venezuelans found your reasoning to be bullshit. They hate your OC as a representation for their country.

2) No New Zealanders have come over to diss my OC. No New Zealanders have come and told me that I was inaccurately representing their homeland WHICH IS ALSO MY HOMELAND.

3) DON'T YOU FUCKING COMPARE NEW ZEALAND, A COUNTRY WITH A STRONG NZ EUROPEAN POPULATION WITH VENEZUELA, A LATIN AMERICAN COUNTRY WITH A FAR LESS NOTABLE POPULATION OF PEOPLE WHO MAY POSSESS LIGHT EYES.

4) HAVE YOU EVER BEEN TO NEW ZEALAND? HAVE YOU SPENT 20+ YEARS OF YOUR LIFE IN MY HOMELAND? oh wait maybe you can fabricate an identity i'm sure you can add 'kiwi' to your greek/puerto rican/venezuelan/irish/pokemon/native american thing that you're rocking. That would be adorable!

5) Katie, Katie, Katie. I know brown eyes are hella prominent in New Zealand. Trust me, baby. I know. But here's the thing - gray eyes, often confused with blue - blue/gray eyes are actually pretty prominent. Throughout my entire schooling, we have done statistics with things like eye colour. Yes, brown eyes are common. But guess what? Blue/Gray throughout my entire life has been more common than green, which is the eye colour that Himaruya gave his NZ.

6) To follow up that point, I myself, a New Zealander, have green eyes. I am not a majority. My brother, my mother and my father all have green eyes. We are not a majority. I'm a special fucking snowflake with my green eyes and if I wanted, I could have given them to my New Zealand and said 'HEY! IT'S POSSIBLE FOR KIWIS TO HAVE GREEN EYES BECAUSE I HAVE GREEN EYES AND I AM KIWI'. Lol fucking no. I am NOT my country. I'm not going to self-insert onto my own goddamn OC. Gross. I could have thrown in some stuff about how New Zealand is known for its greenery and forestry. It plays an integral part of what makes New Zealand New Zealand.

7) But I decided that for the earthy side of New Zealand, I would represent the earthy tones and also the outfit choices to link to New Zealand's outdoors, to the agriculture. The paua shell earrings, the use of the jadestone pendant, the colours of the pants, the gloves and gumboots for the outdoors. Instead of representing the nature of NZ through an eye colour, I chose to link it into the outfit choices and ultimately the personality of what makes my Kiri, Kiri.

8) So back to the reasoning behind why I gave my OC gray eyes. I'll admit to this: hardly anyone ever considers gray eyes for their OC. It's not a colour commonly looked at as interesting, beautiful or anything. I was bored of seeing people using green to represent the European influences (but if others want to do that, that's fine! I just didn't want to apply it to my OC), so I wanted to consider other colours instead.

9) New Zealand does have a strong NZ European population. I myself qualify as a New Zealand European. Without a doubt there are a fuckton of NZ Europeans, often referred to as 'Pakeha'. In creating a personification for my homeland, I knew that I had to consider BOTH the Maori AND the Pakeha. And quite frankly, it's realistic that an NZ representation could have eyes that aren't brown.

10) But here's the thing: the rest of my reasoning that I will talk about is going to be even more specific to New Zealand as a country. The reasons I am giving couldn't possibly be used for any other country other than New Zealand. AND IF ANYONE WANTS TO CRITIQUE IT, BY ALL MEANS. UNLIKE KATIE, I AM NOT HOSTILE TOWARDS THOSE WHO CRITIQUE.

11) One of the reasons I considered the gray eyes was because of the Silver Fern. To those who argue that it's just a plant, bitch you are already ignorant. The Silver Fern, as pictured below:

it is a really rad plant, yes, but there's more to it than that. The Silver Fern is a NATIONAL ICON OF NEW ZEALAND. Not just to the Pakeha, but the Maori too:
 there are so many designs such as this done by the Maori as a representation of the silver fern.
 this is how the Silver Fern is most commonly presented - it's literally iconic to my country. Our national netball team is called the Silver Ferns (and for the record our team is really fucking good). But that picture can almost be considered one of our secondary flags.

THERE ARE SO MANY COMPANIES IN NEW ZEALAND THAT INCORPORATE THE SILVER FERN AS PART OF THEIR IDENTITY. WE HAVE SILVER FERN VISAS. WE HAVE SILVER FERN FARMS. WE HAVE SILVER FERN EVERYTHING YOU LIL BITCH.

What's more is that according to MAORI LEGEND (that's right I AM REFERRING TO THE MAORI, THE INDIGENOUS PEOPLE OF NEW ZEALAND), the silver fern once lived in the sea, but then it was asked to come and live in the forest to play with and guide the Maori people of New Zealand.

Yeah, it's a legend. We all know logically that plants don't really work like that. BUT HERE'S THE THING: THE SILVER FERN IS A NATIONAL ICON TO /EVERYONE/ IN NEW ZEALAND. DON'T YOU FUCKING SHIT ON A MAORI LEGEND. DON'T YOU FUCKING DARE.

12) New Zealand's Maori name is Aotearoa, which translates to 'Land of the Long White Cloud'. White eyes would be unrealistic, but gray eyes? Nah, they actually fucking exist. And clouds are often associated with the colour gray. The eyes are also in reference to the name Aotearoa which is the Maori name for New Zealand. Even before the Pakeha, the Maori still had a fucking affinity with those colours.

OR ARE YOU PREPARED TO SHIT ON THE NAME AOTEAROA? THE FUCKING MEANING OF THE NAME IS JUST AS IMPORTANT AS THE NAME ITSELF. AND AOTEAROA IS A BEAUTIFUL COUNTRY NAME. BEAUTIFUL. STUNNING. ICONIC.

13) Let's not fucking forget also about the CREATION MYTH of New Zealand. The story of Ranginui and Papatuanuku is the legend of how New Zealand / Aotearoa was created. If you want to know more, here:
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rangi_an…
www.teara.govt.nz/en/artwork/2…
maaori.com/whakapapa/creation.…

Now if you can't be bothered reading the links, know this: this tale talks about the Sky Father Ranginui and the Earth Mother Papatuanuku. They are like the symbolic parents of Aotearoa according to the Maori essentially. And guess what? Kiri actually contains representation of BOTH Ranginui AND Papatuanuku.

One thing to remember about New Zealand is that we are not a super colourful country. The way we look, the way we dress, the most vibrant colour significant to us is red. I know that in order to capture the true essence of New Zealand, I wasn't going to use bright blues or bright greens THAT IS NOT RAW REAL KIWI.

Part of making New Zealand female was due to the Earth Mother Papatuanuku. Most of her genetic make-up is very Maori, her hair colours, most of her palette is very much Earth inspired. The blues are for the ocean, the brownish greens for the earth. BUT WAIT! The Sky Father! Ranginui. Now when you think of the sky, the element of air, you often think of colours such as blue, white, silver, gray... but you know what you should also think about?

AOTEAROA: LAND OF THE LONG WHITE CLOUD. AOTEAROA CREATED THROUGH THE STORY OF RANGINUI AND PAPATUANUKU.
Ranginui and Papatuanuku are the Sky Father and the Earth Mother. Earth Mother obviously links to the land. Sky Father links to the Long White Cloud.

To not represent that sky, to not represent those clouds TO NOT REPRESENT WHAT IS A LEGEND OF THE MAORI, TO NOT CONSIDER THE VERY CREATION OF AOTEAROA/NEW ZEALAND that seems like a joke to me tbh.

So fuck, to even imply that not once was I thinking of the Maori when giving my New Zealand gray eyes is a goddamn shitty assumption. Kiri is Aotearoa. She will think back often to Ranginui and Papatuanuku. Aotearoa is a goddamn beautiful country and not for a single moment is Kiri not representing something that is purely New Zealand.

14) BUT BABY. I'M NOT STOPPING THERE. New Zealand has a very important industry in regards to silver itself. Sterling silver products are absolutely everywhere and many of it made using symbolism directly from our country, the Maori, etc.

A lot of mining goes on in New Zealand, I'll just place this here:

New Zealand has abundant resources of coalsilveriron orelimestone and gold. It ranked 22 in the world in terms of iron ore production and 29th in gold production. The total value of mineral production in New Zealand was $1.5 billion in 2006 (excluding oil and gas). The most important metallic minerals produced are gold (10.62 tonnes), silver (27.2 tonnes) and titanomagnetite ironsand (2.15 million tonnes). A 2008 report estimated that the unexploited resources of just seven core minerals (including gold, copper, iron and molybdenum) totalled around $140 billion in worth.

The mining sector makes a significant contribution to the New Zealand economy. In 2004 the value of production from mining (excluding oil and gas) was $1,142 million, or just under 1% of gross domestic product. In 2009 there were 6,800 people employed directly in mining, and 8,000 people, indirectly, flowing from the economic activity of the 6,800. The median wage for a mining employee was $57,320 in 2008, compared to the New Zealand median of $33,530.

Even the Maori did mining, they discovered lots of argillite prior to the European Colonisation. And this is what the argillite looks like:

mmmm yeah check out that colour. WHAT A NICE GRAY. DELICIOUS.

ah yes, but even with the colonisation... check out the coal:

IT'S LIKE FIFTY SHADES OF GRAY MAN.

AND HEY, DIDN'T NEW ZEALAND HAVE UP TO 27.2 TONNES OF SILVER BACK IN 2006? HEY ISN'T THAT JUST FURTHER PROOF LINKING TOWARDS NEW ZEALAND'S IMPORTANCE WITH SILVER?
www.apmex.com/category/27300/s…
www.nzsilver.com/

AND THEN THEN THEN THERE'S 2.1 MILLION TONNES OF IRONSAND.

MMM YEAH LOOK AT THE COLOUR OF THAT. NEW ZEALAND GATHERED UP 2.1 MILLION TONNES OF THAT IN 2006. I WONDER HOW MUCH IRONSAND THEY'VE HAD SINCE BEFORE ALL THAT MINING. THAT'S HOT YO. SUPER HOT.

15) SO LET'S SEE. MY REASONINGS CONSIDERED GENETICS. THEY CONSIDERED THE MAORI IN MORE WAYS THAN ONE. THEY CONSIDERED ONE OF THE MOST SIGNIFICANT NATIONAL ICONS OF NEW ZEALAND. THEY CONSIDERED ONE OF NEW ZEALAND'S MAJOR INDUSTRIES.

IF YOU WANT TO SHIT ON THOSE REASONINGS, BY ALL MEANS. SHIT ON IMPORTANT THINGS RELATED TO MY HOMELAND. SEE WHERE THAT GETS YOU.

You can disagree with me deciding to give my New Zealand OC gray eyes. You can think that. But don't think for a single minute that this decision of mine was thoughtless. Don't think for a minute that my reasonings were not New Zealand specific, because they damn well are.

You can't apply all these reasonings I gave to any other country in the world. These are special to my country alone.

16) So yeah. Think again before criticising my OCs. I put my heart and soul into my research and I don't plan out my characters thoughtlessly. AND QUITE FRANKLY I DON'T CARE FOR CRITIQUES WHERE PEOPLE LIKE KATIE TURN THE CONVERSATION INTO MAKING IT ALL ABOUT THEMSELVES. KATIE CRITICISED MY OC ONLY TO CRY ABOUT HOW I OFFERED A SMALL CRITIQUE TO HER OC THAT SHE ALREADY ELECTED TO DISREGARD MONTHS AGO. SHE HAS BEEN HOLDING THIS GRUDGE, THIS SALTY GRUDGE OVER A SMALL CRITIQUE FOR MONTHS.

SHE THEN PROCEEDED TO CRY TO HER TUMBLR ABOUT HOW 'AWFUL' I AM AND APPARENTLY THREATENED TO CALL ME OUT. over what, bitch, what?

I'm not the one who polices OCs to the point of making people give up, scrap the OCs and leave the fandom.

I'm not the one who made people feel shitty about themselves, some almost killing themselves.

I've consistently been kind and helpful to my friends. I make journals to advertise my friends' works and bring light to those who have felt ignored. I advertise groups for people. I advertise projects. I love learning more about those around me. I actually give a damn for the community. Many people like me for being approachable and that I am straight-forward and honest.

I never once lied about my identity. I have always been very real with people. I am honest about my flaws. I know I'm far from perfect. I don't think I'm the best creator in the world. I know I don't know everything. I love learning from others and I love being able to help others learn in return.

People have often asked for my help with critiques. Most people never got offended by my critiques, many even took my words into consideration. When you look around the APH OC community, especially here on deviantArt, I can acknowledge that my stance here is significant.

I don't have a bad reputation and I often express that if anyone ever has a problem with me, TAKE ME ASIDE. I will actually talk things through with people. I know I am not perfect and I always have things to work on in regards to my character. But no, Katie didn't want to note me around the time of her problems with me. Instead she's been salty for months and talked behind my back... but that's just the sort of person she is. Immature and cowardly.

So Katie, what did you have to call me out on again? I have tons of people who can play testimony to the sort of person I am. I don't have to fake identities in order to defend myself. Most of my work, most of my behaviour speaks for itself. I may not be perfect, but I will always be a better person than you. That's why I am not threatened by you or anyone like you. Your words don't mean shit to me.

And everyone who you harassed, everyone who felt worthless because you... THEY ARE MORE WONDERFUL THAN YOU CAN EVEN BEGIN TO IMAGINE. They will learn so much because of you. Thank you for enlightening them of the terrible people in the world. Congrats, you are one of the terrible people in the world.

And for the fucking record...

The reason I pointed out that law is because IT IS A GODDAMN LAW. Just over one year ago when you submitted that OC, a whole ton of my Filipino friends were left HELLA uncomfortable because of the way you incorporated the Philippine Flag into your OC design.

Why the fuck would a Philippines OC breach their own nation's law? Yes, Philippines have their Pinoy Pride, but a nation representation would also consider the Philippine Law.

And if you can look at the interactions, you'll see how Katie used multiple identities to try and argue something that is PROHIBITED. And not once did I bash them for it. I just felt it wasn't a good way to show Pinoy Pride ESPECIALLY SINCE MY FILIPINO FRIENDS WERE REALLY OFFENDED AT THE TIME. Also let's note that a common thing in PH OC community is that many Filipinos will get excited at PH OCs and talk about being Filipino. DID YOU EVER THINK AND WONDER WHY THEY DIDN'T SWARM TO YOUR OC?

MAYBE BECAUSE YOU MADE 'EM UNCOMFORTABLE AS FUCK.

And for the record I could have critiqued that entire bio. Referring to Malaysia as a close friend is bullshit if you consider their political issues. But I didn't get into that because it was obvious the picture was just beginning grounds for the OC. Hell, I could have gotten into the fact that Filipinos in PH may have their hot weather, but there's still reservations on females showing a lot of skin. The super short shorts and the singlet top weren't the most appropriate either?

But no, I just wanted to get to the important issue - which was in consideration of the law.

And then Katie supposedly went and bitched about my critique on other accounts and that's what started her hostility and grudge towards me. It wasn't the Venezuela OC critique: it was this one.

But let me make it clear:

KATIE'S VENEZUELA HAS MADE ACTUAL VENEZUELANS UNCOMFORTABLE. ALSO KATIE'S PHILIPPINES HAS MADE ACTUAL FILIPINOS UNCOMFORTABLE.


And yet how dare I stand up for them in pointing out what could possibly be fixed in order to NOT FUCKING OFFEND THE PEOPLE FROM THOSE ACTUAL RACES?? I was always civil and fair in my wording when I did those critiques. The first time I got multiple Katie identities ganging up on me. The second time I got met with hostility which is cried about months later solely because Katie is salty as fuck.

But of course Katie is so perfect! She can tell people how horrible they are BUT SHE'S NOT HORRIBLE, SHE'S A SPECIAL SNOWFLAKE WITH LITERAL IMAGINARY FRIENDS! <3 HOW DARE ANYONE THINK SHE IS LESS THAN PERFECT! SUPER DUPER DONE.

Ok wait wat.
Malaysia as a CLOSE FRIEND?
FILIPINA (I'm a Malaysian I'm sorry. That's how we call it)'S FLAG BE WORN LIKE THAT. Like, that's seriously wrong.

That asshole need both of her eyes open.

In most of the Hetalia OC community, Malaysia is depicted as Filipina's //ahem// SISTER/BROTHER. But, after a certain incident, Filipina stoped to see Malaysia that way, until the MaPhilIndo was born.
(Correct me if I'm wrong)

2. The flag.

In ALMOST country law, you cannot make the flag that way. I myself have read about Filipina's rules. YOU CANNOT WEAR THE FLAG THAT WAY, KATIE.
Try it at Filipina. They will surely gave you looks (right?)

Even a Malaysian like me if uncomfortable for seeing Filipina, the beautiful land of Filipina, is designed like that.

I would like to see you, Katie, design a Malaysia. I dare you. The whole Malaysia dares you.

(I'm sorry if I called Philippines Filipina. I'm not used to type Philippines yet and often get it wrong. Btw, I like your NZ oc! She looked very nice with grey eyes. Made me feel that NZ is...beautiful)
