/holding up my hand cautiously, here

hey OP! i was actually once on the receiving end of this kind of concrit. it was a long time ago and i wasn't really a bnf, so it didn't really matter that much. regardless, i spazzed the fuck out after getting criticized, and i was dogpiled by a lot of people in the fandom for coming across as a passive-aggressive bitch.

it was a horrible experience, and every single day i regret having turned on my concrit reviewer like that. i was just so young and angry at the time, and i felt terrible about it afterwards.

i changed names and started writing under a sock. i won back support and then, slowly, i eased back into my old username and told everybody it was me all this time. no shocking revelations. no dramatic finger-pointing. i apologized to the reviewer, and i told my new friends what had happened to me, admitted how stupid i was back then. and it was ok. some of them judged me a little, but most of them were mature and understanding. my reviewer told me that she'd forgotten all about this event, so i think it just goes to show how stuff like this can really haunt you.

all of this occurred roughly within the span of three years. i guess what i'm trying to say is that people can change, and there's still hope to be found. and coming from the other end, i can kind of maybe understand why the bnf flipped a shit. it wasn't the right thing to do, but maybe they can change.

good luck.
