I was surprised that someone started this, but I am glad someone had the guts to do it!
I've never got close enough to know the two personally myself. I even read through everyone's experiences and I am shocked they hurt so many before everyone finally stood up.
You all know me pretty well, someone they absolutely hate, some of you may have even defended them against me. Note, I hold no grudge against you. You were blinded by them.
I've had experiences with
and 
for years. Granted, I admit I was never the best person. I made my mistakes. What they failed to realize is that I was just a kid then. I was traumatized from the things they've done to me to the point hearing their names, talking about them, anything involving them makes me shake in rage and pain. I can't excuse the things I have done, but neither can they.I'm sure you all know what happened between me and them, but I'll give you the ones that hurt me the most.

I remember joining their server, I was mortified. But a friend came with me and she helped me get through it. I was on there for only but a week before I was banned.
I had done very minor self harm rp, they had no rule against it so I thought it was okay. Again, my better judgement put me at fault. I hear they added a rule because of me and I told my friend to tell them I was informed of the rule and it won't happen again.
When i logged on I was almost immediately teleported to the rules, the person who was the site announcer, or whatever, FORCED me to read it over and over. I ended up having a panic attack, I was petrified. I managed to log off and end the call with my friends and I stayed in my room for 1-2 hours just crying before I managed to calm down even to go back to my computer for my friend to comfort me.

The most recent experience you all know very well. It was over me using their character without permission. I actually did get permission through a friend, DI knew I was using their character. Granted, they may have forgotten but they never gave that as a possible option. Just completely disregarded it. I just removed everything to the drama would stop, because I knew it would get no where.
Hell, Carify even was ready to go through with SUING ME over the damn thing. She found out who my aunt was, knew her by name. Although, she thought she was my mother. I had NO CHOICE but to do as they asked because I can't afford that possibly happening.
I literally live in a damn trailer and have no job (That isn't for food stamps) as of current. I was backed into a corner. But, I still have all the messages she sent to me.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
After so long, I figured once the stuff was removed that they'd leave me alone. Oh boy, was I wrong. About a week or a month passed before I made a video that was of the meme Copycat. I had made a skin that, unfortunately, I failed to realize looked like their skin for Brineary. The skin being made for a character named Brandon, now Gerome.
My sister made the design choices and I drew him was we went, she even picked out the pallet which was based of the colors of the walls at our work place. He was going to be a character we were to share.
I posted the video and a couple hours later they found out and I was under fire once more. They claimed I 'copied' Brineary, stole his design, ect. A wave of people came in defending them, not bothering to hear our side of the story. Although, a very small few did. Ultimately, I had to ask a friend for help on redesigning the character. Of course, DI and Carify, as well as their followers, were commenting on my sisters post on how to change him.Which is pretty insulting to an artist especially when what they were describing was some edgy character when Gerome is dapper and fancy.
Brandon is now Gerome and he is one of my most beloved OCs, same for his brother Digit. DI has insulted Digit before. Saying I copied the ones and zero design from them. Digit had the ones and zeros because he is a being derived from coding and virus that no longer serves a purpose.
Eventually this was all settle and you think it'd be over but no, they took one more jab:
<da:embed id="F8i4r9PJBAo" profile="youtube" width="560" height="315">
They claim this video was being made around the time this discourse above went down. Then why post it? Everything was settled, it was done and you still went through with it. The man who posted it is not innocent either.
I still have people coming to me after they found this video, insulting and harassing me. When you look at the description of the video on Youtube they state to not witch hunt the user in question. People still do it.
They made this video like it was some sort of joke, like it had no effect on the person on the other end. I had a panic attack after this video was posted. I couldn't and still can't understand why they posted it. Probably just to hurt my reputation more.
I even messaged the video creator on Twitter and politely asked him to take it down. I even discussed it with a friend to make sure I didn't sound too pushy. He refused. I've reported the video and so have other people and it's still up.
I just found out they even added my new username on it, too. Not surprised honestly.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I've never tried apologizing to Di before, big mistake. I tried being nice, I tried being calm and rational. Nothing worked.
I can tell you one thing, they never got to know the real me. They demonized me and even got people to join in. People I never interacted with and admired have blocked me. It is hurtful and upsetting when you see artist you like, that you've always wanted to interact with just block you because of what someone said.
But now, it all ends and I'm glad to add my experiences. If anyone who ever defended them reads this and realizes how bad those two actually are, well, I don't blame you. I'm not mad at you. I'm just glad to finally saw who they truly are.
Sorry this was so long, thanks for reading it all!
