I wanted to provide you with my side of the story in the fight you read about and demonstrate that BadlyBruisedMuse is not the innocent victim he tries to make himself out to be.

The conflict between us began over a disagreement over what words should be used in certain articles. It initially came to an end when I refuted all of his arguments and his response was to claim I was wrong just because he said so. After I pointed out his inability to directly contest my arguments, he stopped replying.

Weeks later, BadlyBruisedMuse resurrected the conflict by asking Collector1 for his opinion on our word choices. Problem was, he misled Collector1 into taking his side by claiming his word choice was “more accurate” and “ literally what happened. ” He then came to my message wall to force me to accept his debunked point of view, continually lied about refuting me, and refused to leave me alone. Following at least two days of fighting, John Alfred Hammond, CEO got involved and ordered us to stop.

I thought the conflict was now reaching its conclusion, but that was just wishful thinking. When I asked JAH if it was acceptable to use my word choices in the articles, BadlyBruisedMuse interjected himself into our conversation to continue the argument, blame me for the fight that happened, and insult me for my request. He then made a thread on his own message wall to “debate” our word choices. However, his mind was already made up and he wasn’t interested in partaking in a constructive debate. He refused to listen to my arguments, flat-out stated he wasn’t reading my posts, and continued to insult and demean me for having a different opinion.

In an attempt to prevent another fight from breaking out, I contacted the admins about the problems I was having with BadlyBruisedMuse and asked for their assistance. Unfortunately, they were unresponsive to my messages. It would have been one thing if they said nothing could be done about him, but they weren’t even telling me that. They were simply ignoring and putting off my efforts at receiving help from them.

This was incredibly frustrating to me for a number of reasons. I was frustrated that even though I proved my word choice was superior, I couldn’t use it in articles because BadlyBruisedMuse would just keep undoing my edits and lying about refuting me. I was frustrated that the admins were doing virtually nothing about this matter, even after I informed them about what was going on. And I was frustrated that BadlyBruisedMuse was facing no consequences for his dishonest, disrespectful, and bullying attitude. Fed up and feeling like I was out of options, I reached out to others who could discipline BadlyBruisedMuse for his actions.

<span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family:"TimesNewRoman","serif"">At the end of the day, there’s a lot of blame to go around. BadlyBruisedMuse is at fault for not admitting he was wrong and trying to force me to accept his viewpoint. The admins are at fault for not monitoring this situation and ignoring my requests for interference. And I am at fault for taking extreme measures to see BadlyBruisedMuse disciplined and not moving on from a conflict that was getting ugly real fast.

<p style="margin:0in0in0pt;"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family:"TimesNewRoman","serif"">BadlyBruisedMuse can come on here to vilify me all he wants, but his allegations are greatly exaggerated. Contrary to what he claims, I contacted a grand total of two people. That “friend” he’s referring to is not somebody he’s met in person. He is another Wikia user (FishTank) and the head administrator of the American Horror Story Wikia, where BadlyBruisedMuse also holds an admin position. Since admins should be ideal users across the network, I was hoping he would inform BadlyBruisedMuse that his conduct is unacceptable and harmful to a Wikia. There is no evidence that I used a picture of him as my avatar. He likes to claim he has a screencapture of me admitting it, but is consistently unable to prove how I’m admitting it.

<p style="margin:0in0in0pt;"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family:"TimesNewRoman","serif"">According to the staff, the real reason I was banned was for “harassing American Horror Story Wikia admins on other sites.” No details were provided, but this tells me that anything that happened here had nothing to do with the ban, and whichever AHS admin reported me – I can’t confirm if it was BadlyBruisedMuse or FishTank – made it sound like I was harassing the both of them.

<span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family:"TimesNewRoman","serif"">That’s my side of the story, take it for what it is. <ac_metadata title="My side of the story"> </ac_metadata>
