Toxic Fandom Behavior - Tumblr Posts

2 years ago

I can't add anything else to this post but please, can people for once in fandom history use common sense. There's a reason we have brains in our heads and not empty space. I really hope you learn to use them. I understand that some meant no harm, simply saw fanart they enjoyed and wanted to share with the VA without thinking, but that still doesn't change the fact that not everyone will be comfortable seeing lewd content, and it's important that even if boundaries aren't explicitly stated we be mindful of what could be unwanted.

Genshin Fandom Leave The VAs The Fuck Alone Challenge.

Elliot’s been part of the community for barely a week. Y’all didn’t even give the poor man time to breathe before pulling some bullshittery on him. Yes, a lot of the English Genshin VAs are active in the community (some a bit too much so), but they’re not your buddies.

Who the fuck in their right mind sees lewd fanart of a character and goes “You know who would really like this? Their voice actor!” The only VA I can think of who might be fine with that is Griffin, and even then it’s just common fucking decency to not do that. He’s a grown man. If he wants to see R34 of Childe he can look for it himself. He doesn’t need some Twitter rando tagging him.

Randomly tagging VAs in shit is not normal behavior, and if you think it is, you need to get off of social media for a while. I’m being completely serious about that. That kind of attention seeking is a sign of someone who’s not getting enough offline social interaction.

I am literally begging at this point, leave the VAs alone. This is why the rest of the internet fucking hates us.
