RE: Write Club, Fight Club, All Right Club!

in #writing7 years ago

There was no communication between us between my observation of some very disturbing things that occurred at The Writers' Block, and Negativer sending me that direct message about that logos. I'm sorry if you felt my silence was antagonistic, but I felt if was best if I left quietly. We probably wouldn't even be having this conversation right now had Negativer not come to me about the logo on behalf of The Writers' Block.

I know this. Which is what makes the whole thing seem so hostile. You hadn't even thought about it. Odd. We were actually referring to the letter block logo you had just designed (which we have some screenshots of you granting us license to use without conditions.) Not the old clip art logo. Then after we tried to reach out about that, you continued to DM GMuxx and push Negativer, even sending specific links we should tend to. So basically, you took what was an effort to be kind and used it as a hammer. You refused to address this with me at all. So it wasn't "silence" that became antagonistic. It was the response overall to what could have been a nice gesture that we were under no compunction to offer in the first place.

I had thought about it, a lot, but I was afraid to approach any of you about it. I was worried I would be treated less than kindly for telling you that I didn't want me or my work to be associated with you any more. Seems my worries weren't entirely unfounded. But I still appreciate Negativer contacting me, which pushed me to make the right decision for me. If your desire is to continue using graphics you don't want to use as some sort of punishment on me, so be it. Just, do me a favour and carry on with not crediting me if that's what you decide to do, yea? Peace.

“You refused to address this with me at all.”

You mean by responding to the representative you sent instead of contacting her yourself to ask?
