((My internet connection is quite poor, so if this has already gone through, let me know and I'll delete any doubles, but I doubt there will be any.))
I don't know if I'm posting this in the right place, but I think this would be funny to share with people.
Correct me if I'm wrong in posting this here, and enjoy the story.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I'm going to tell you all about one of the most hilariously cringe-worthy people I've ever met.
The English 17 year old in question is called Harry, but he goes by a variety of internet aliases, most of which are Japanese. I first encountered Harry when I joined a discord server for the patreon supporters to a Youtube channel, I myself am Irish and I usually create playful rivalries with my English friends, I tried to initiate the same with Harry. This wasn't unlike the other users, nothing more than the casual actions in asterisks or /me posts. In return he unfriended me on discord and stopped responding to me, at first I took this a bit personally. But now I wish I could go back and stop myself from ever becoming chummy with him to begin with. Shortly after, he unblocked me and acted as if nothing had ever happened. I just let it go as well. Although I eventually left said discord server because I didn't get along with some of the cast members from the channel, it wasn't before Harry had invited me to join a Dungeons & Dragons server hosted by some of our mutual friends. This, is where it all truly began.
Since the beginning of the campaign and even before it's initiation, Harry's attitude was apparent. Another user in our DnD server, a girl called Magic, was constantly berated and insulted by Harry for her lack of experience with TableTop RPGs. Harry even went as far as to criticize her for playing a generic Ninja-esque monk. But his abuse of Magic went far beyond criticism. Harry often shut her down, or silenced her when she'd bring up her interests or opinions on a conversation topic. Usually saying no one cared to hear them. Magic laments her difficulties about knowing when to speak or how not to be annoying in general, and Harry did absolutely nothing to help this. Harry was often warned by the DM(s) about his behavior, but his attitude never changed. After his first character was killed by a falling bookshelf, Harry created a new one. The long-coat clad, one-eyed Tabaxi known as Reina, wielded a musket. Harry often expressed his fondness for furry characters. (A Tabaxi is basically a furry in DnD.) It was also stated by Harry, that Reina was a 'futa'. He often shared details about his characters that nobody cared to hear, like this one. Once, while the PCs were interrogating a vampire, Harry asked if he could sexually assault her with his crossbow, to extract the information. This was one of many red flags for the DMs and I, who had been made a moderator. Harry spent most of his time on the server and expressing his delight in being in the community, we took pity on him and only slapped his wrist when he acted up. Harry often created poorly-drawn references for other people's characters, trying to force them to use them as their main visual reference. Although most of us had drawn our own, it didn't stop him from referencing his own illustrations rather than those created by the owners of characters. Another famous quote from Harry in one of the sessions, was that "Age is just a number in Dungeons & Dragons." when speaking about an NPC that was not above the age of consent. Through our first campaign, I was often absent due to problems behind the screen. In my absence, Harry would often try to take control of my character.
Our first campaign ended with a dramatic battle where two of the PCs had turned on the others, in which Harry's habit of voicing other people's characters was at it's peak. After this, the other mods and I discussed his behavior. We let him off with yet another warning, as we still considered him a friend first and a nuisance after, but this was another mistake on our part.
For the second campaign, Harry played a kobald named Paisley. Harry pressured me to draw a reference, guilt-tripping me by exclaiming that I had drawn one for most of the others and that he'd felt left out. He demanded that his character be drawn dressed as a character from Jojo's Bizarre Adventure, which he'd developed an obsession over. Harry referenced the anime constantly.
He still constantly berated Magic, as well as the other players. He always complained about his own campaign having no players, blaming them for having no interest in any other DM(s) other than those from our server. Reina had been an annoying PC, but Paisley was even worse. Paisley was uncomfortably sexual towards other PCs, even going as far as to ask to roll to rape my own when I was incapacitated. (Helpless to defend myself.) My character had only recently turned 18, as well.
Paisley also urinated on his comrades when they were rolling for deaths-saves. Most of his characteristics were taken from Anime he had watched. Harry's actions were finally boiling over, and with more spats with the other PCs each day, the big boss had grown very tired of giving him chances. Our second campaign was ended abruptly because the DMs were busy.
The straw that broke the camel's back, was when our friend Isaac was in VC with a YouTuber we liked, and Harry drew attention to Isaac's recently deceased father. Isaac, a 14 year old, repeatedly asked him not to mention it. Harry ignored Isaac, slighting the YouTuber for jokingly referring to himself as Isaac's father, unknowing of the recent passing. Although I had always defended Harry out of pity, suggesting he be sternly warned rather than kicked or boycotted, I immediately reported this to our server owner. Finally, Harry's trial was scheduled.
Some time passed and the day came, all of the mods and Harry along with one friend to defend him so he didn't feel alone, got into a voice channel and read out our list of his offenses. He did not take the criticism whatsoever, always deflecting or blaming other users. ( I'll never forget when he tried to blame me, only for the big boss to tell him I was his biggest advocate.) Eventually, Harry muted himself, only for his MOTHER to speak from his Microphone. Chelle, Harry's mother, caught all of us off guard. Out of common-decency, we did not tell his mother of his actions in the campaign, and only of how he treated the other users. After a long discussion, it was agreed that his mother would make a discord account to be contacted if he were to act up, and Harry was kept around. This was not to last.
If you remember, I mentioned my grievances with YouTubers. One in particular, I didn't get along with at all. When I had eventually developed a consistent art style and created a new persona, my friends suggested I draw said persona attacking that of said YouTuber. Admittedly, this was a stupid idea. However said artwork was never supposed to be seen by anyone outside of our friend circle, and it was only homage to the running joke of our undying hatred for one-another. Harry has always been and is still an obsessive fan of said YouTubers, and he wasted no time in outing me by sending said picture to them. This caused a lot of trouble, I had almost lost mod status to make an example of poor conduct and Harry had boasted that his actions were justified. As a result of this, Harry was finally kicked from our server and most of us unfriended him. The YouTubers cared little for any meaning behind the art, and only worried that I was harboring hatred. That however, is all in the past. This is about Harry, who's story goes on.
Harry didn't take his removal well, playing the victim and insulting us all in chats he believed secure. In one of said chats, I joined shortly after he spoke poorly about me, just to spook him. Some time later, someone asked me a question about one of my characters, and Harry answered with what he thought fitted them. This annoyed me, as I'd already told him not to speak to/about me, but when I told him not to answer for me-- guess who made her return? Chelle!
Chelle opened a private conversation with me by ordering me not to treat Harry so poorly, and that she had screenshots of my messages that could get me into a lot of trouble, especially with my political views. (referring to my Irish Republicanism and jokes about such) Nobody, not even I, could process the situation at first. Her asinine claims didn't end here, however. Chelle demanded I leave Harry alone, exclaiming that it'd be a shame to lose my friends, and that she had nothing to lose. I told her that my friend thought she was hilarious, and that I didn't bully Harry whatsoever. Chelle thanked me for my response and told me that my abuse towards other artists was unacceptable and would be shared. I reminded her that her son had been the issue in the whole situation, to which she replied with a legendary "lol". I said that she couldn't threaten me and leave so quickly, and she said she would return after showing the conversation to her "colleague". I asked why a 16 year old would need her assistance if his word was so trustworthy, and she again said she had my images, screenshots and that she had full control. She denied that she was threatening me, and I told her that she had no power over us and that if she wanted to sort anyone out she could begin with parenting her son.
After this, Harry was kicked from a few other servers to avoid drama. He remains in only one. And that's the patreon server, which he was very nearly kicked from after writing his infamous document and posting it wherever he could. Said document was full of wrongful accusations towards my friends and I, playing the victim of our abuse and cruelty. Harry was without a soul on his side, and since then he's been without many companions, as it should be.
So that's the story of Harry, I'd altered names slightly so not to out him entirely. hopefully you found the situation as amusing as we did. And, as they say in the Dungeons & Dragons community...
Don't be like Harry.
Don't be that guy.
