Stop the witch hunts.
I think "witch hunt" is a bit over the top. I was vocal about my reservations about @msgivings even before the definitive proof of plagiarism. I think the distinct lack of any attempt to save face or respond to the criticisms confirms that the operator of the account was consciously trying to get away with something. As soon as the gig was up, they recognized it and moved on... almost certainly to attempt to recreate their smashing success. I don't think it's fair of you to demonize people who speak out about obvious destructive behavior, while ignoring or even justifying the initial abuse.
I think the flags on this post are wildly inappropriate.
But she turned me into a newt!
Respectfully disagree, especially about this post which not only made hyperbolic. unproven, and very likely untrue claims about @msgivings being an AI, but more importantly made similarly flimsy accusations and inappropriate demands against another user who, at least up to the point of this confrontation, is still active.
I will not condone this form of bullying and harassment. It is absolutely appropriate to flag it and I will continue to do so if I see it happening again.
I agree.
