I never expected my post to gain the traction it did and I understand it did because Red Mage has a long history of unpleasent interaction with MANY people. Still, a few things need to set straight. (1/3)

The first is that I didn't set out to intentionally cancel him. I wrote a tweet venting my frustrations with him and the fact that he abused the confidence of a charity run in his name Basically, taking the money, then stonewalling and kicking out the dude who made the charity

Additonally the post went viral because it turns out a LOT of people had problems with him. This includes 3 writters who previously collaborated with him and basically stated corroborated that his attitude is general is terrible or that he uses people

With that said, do I agree with removing his book revenue permanently? I think the response is disproportionate. Honestly, I never even needed an apology to begin with. The post was just for the people who followed me. The fact it gained so much traction surprised me

@St1ka I saw this late last night and saw the tweets and oh there you are But we've been mutuals for a while and I know that malfeasance nor cancel culture nonsense aren't things you engage in, either. I'm surprised you've remained as polite as you have with all the braindead shit you

@11975MHz Either way, I took part of it.

@St1ka 1) Nobody needed this weaselly, rumormongering attempt from you to pour gas on the fire in secret. Your screenshot doesn't prove anything you asserted in your second post, beyond him not liking the game your gimmick account was named after. 2) The word is spelled "unpleasant".

@kinetizen Unphasent

@St1ka Nothing should be set straight, you should have kept your mouth shut from the start.

@Nobleshield Unfortunately, it's too late for that. All I can do is ask him what I can do.

@St1ka "...because Red Mage has a long history of unpleasent interaction with MANY people." That's a REALLY suspicious statement to make without backing it up. He seems like a decent - but not perfect - guy. As a random guy on Twitter, your description is more apt for yourself. (1/2)

@KamisamanoOtaku this is the original thread. You can see the number of people in the replies and quote replies with previous interactions with him: https://bsky.app/profile/st1ka...

@St1ka I know you’ve said some borderline things too. Imagine if you tried to write a book, get it published, then everyone you’ve had cross arguments with on the internet over the many years you’ve been active, decided to crawl out the woodwork and get you shut down. Thats what

@Hey_Hedgehog I didn't set out to cancel him, but I did want my followers to know who wrote the book. Regardless, i let if spiral out of my control.

@St1ka Why do you feel the need to destroy other peoples life because of some ancient Twitter posts?

@St1ka Respect for this post. Now we are all waiting to hear from @bitmap_books

@St1ka I’ve never had an unpleasant interaction with him. It’s cool you are both retro gamers so I follow both. Don’t care about twitter drama. Just keep posting cool shit!

@St1ka Dont like whole retro gamer clique over contant "narrative shattering", and this whole conflict seems like a bunch a dudes mild shittalking each other and it escalated into crime accusation because its internet.

@St1ka Interesting read. It really sounds like you're navigating a minefield to avoid a few fragile personalities. Been there. Hope it gets lighter soon.

@St1ka I was going to angrily assault you with swear words for hurting my friend, but I’m going to calmly explain what you have done. You have taken income from a man trying to provide for his family, you have taken the spirit of a man by crushing a dream, whatever you say your

@St1ka His half-portuguese side matched the very worst stereotype of xenophobic, anti Brazilian moron. If he had apologized sincerely before, he could've defused the situation by linking the apology. He couldn't because he didn't. And there's also the charity/backstabbing drama...

@St1ka Should’ve known better than to go after his source of income, but I’m sure you know that now. Considering how the blowback against Bitmap Books is practically unanimous, they’ll reprobably reverse their decision and give Red Mage his money. Hope this doesn’t delay the FPS video.

@St1ka The ironic thing is you are 10x scummier than he could ever be

@St1ka No, to be honest he's just an insufferable ass. He and I have never interacted, but his takes on things have always left a bad taste in my mouth...

@St1ka That was seriously not cool St1ka. Not cool at all. Not even I would do something like this and I like the guy

@St1ka It's a shame, I've had nothing but normal interactions with you both.
