It wasn't even an allegation. It was "this man writes YA, so I think he's a creeper, because why else would a man write YA with romance except to fuck little girls??? Obviously he's hung up on some girl he never got to fuck!" That and say he's evil because of things his book characters say. The sad thing is he's actually really active in social justice, works on education and works a lot for charity.

And they'll defend their actor crushes who are accused of abuse, or whatever horrible thing they're saying, but somehow John Green is now awful despite...not actually doing anything other than some foot in mouth moments which were instantly apologized for.

http://fail-fandomanon.dreamwidth.org/144221.html?thread=761004893#cmt76100 explains a lot

There's also been several other threads on tumblr debunking things like that the author of that post got called off tumblr (she didn't) that she was a "brave teen speaking up" (she's an adult)

Tumblr kept on passing around stuff like that, until finally an answered ask went viral and he had to close down. He hasn't left the net, he's still pretty active on twitter. He just doesn't really interact on tumblr anymore like he used to. He closed the ask box last I heard, and generally only posts original content on his tumblr or interacts with larger blogs.

But he's on tour for Paper Towns right now, so I would've be surprised if his presence is less. He had to skip out on his podcast.

There was one accusation via yourfaveisproblematic, however I can honestly believe it was someone trolling. There are many sources that John has severe anxiety and OCD, and that he hates being touched by people he doesn't know very well. and while he may be affectionate with people he knows well, that doesn't make him so with strangers.

It's such an integral part of him that it made it into one of the Crash Course videos, and he actually made a post apologizing for how anti-social he can come across and by people being disappointed at how distant he is at cons.

SA. Re: the accusation. It was posted in the first FFA link, but to quote for anyone who didn't check there:

In fact, there was an issue with YFIP and trying to accuse him of being a creep with no proof. http://fishingboatproceeds.tumblr.com/post/48314459140/thoughts-on-the-yourfaveisproblematic-tumblr talks about it. He talks more here: http://fishingboatproceeds.tumblr.com/post/48319003709/you-didnt-really-respond-to-a-lot-of-the-concerns#notes Eventually there was enough backlash to YFIP that they took it down, but yeah. People have been going "John Green is a pedophile because [unrelated reasons which have nothing to do with pedophilia such as writing genres]" for a while. It's kind of become a meme in some places.
