[19:42:00] +Iron Manatee: starline i'm ok with being ignored, but could i just ask why? If I did something that offended you, I'm sorry, but I'd like to know what it is that I did
[19:42:02] +Iron Manatee: That's all
[19:42:09] +Iron Manatee: If you can see this...
[19:42:53] +Starline: If I were still on the other computer, I wouldn't have gotten these messages.
[19:42:55] +Starline: Anyway,
[19:45:21] +Iron Manatee: If you could, please explain why it is that you've chosen to ignore me, if you don't mind saying
[19:49:20] +Starline: I know you're 16 but immaturity is only an excuse for inexperience, not being obnoxious. At first I actually thought you were funny; I didn't mind being called a "whore" or whatever.
[19:49:27] +Starline: But accusing someone of being transgendered with the same tone that homophobes say "gay", well, I shouldn't have to explain why that is wrong. Feel free to PM me again when you grow up and realize how obnoxious you were when you were a teenager.
[20:02:55] +Iron Manatee: I appreciate you telling me what I did to make you feel uncomfortable, Starline. Several things, however. First, when did I say anything somewhat similar to "accusing someone of being transgendered in the same tone that homophobes say gay"?
[20:03:12] +Iron Manatee: I don't recall saying anything similar to that. Second, even if I did say that, it was not meant in anything close to a derogatory sense. I'm an advocate for rights, I find it ridiculous that you would compare me to a homophobe.
[20:03:25] +Iron Manatee: Third, on the topic of the whole “whore” thing, that was entirely a joke, what I do not understand is why, if you felt uncomfortable with me saying that, why you didn’t speak out about it. If you’d told me to stop, I would have stopped.
[20:03:53] +Iron Manatee: Instead, you encouraged it, saying things such as “Starline used protect”, etc. Even if that’s not true, I even told you that I was going to stop.
[20:04:04] +Iron Manatee: You realize that you encouraged me to continue, correct? You realize that, even after I had said that I felt bad about doing it, that I was sorry, you had told me that you enjoyed it, that you wanted me to continue?
[20:04:15] +Iron Manatee: If what I was doing was making you feel uncomfortable, why on earth didn’t you say anything? It may seem that I’m blaming you, perhaps, or that I’m denying these accusations. Allow me to clarify: I do not recall saying these statements at all.
[20:04:32] +Iron Manatee: Second, If I did, there was a clear lack of communication between us. Third, there was no action taken by you to discourage me from saying the things I did say.
[20:04:46] +Iron Manatee: When you’ve read this message, if you would like to take it further, and have a larger discussion about it, feel free to PM me back.
[20:04:52] +Starline: I definitely did not feel uncomfortable with you punching me in the whore mouth. It was actually funny the first few times you said it. Really stale joke though
[20:05:05] +Iron Manatee: If not, if you’ve made up your mind and decided that I’m “immature”, a word you use to have a negative connotation, and you choose not to respond to this, I’ll understand that, and although you’ll continue to regard me as immature, that’s something irrelevant to me.
[20:05:14] +Iron Manatee: I appreciate you telling me how you felt, and for hopefully reading this, instead of blindly disregarding me.
[20:05:39] +Iron Manatee: That's my message. Feel free to respond.
[20:08:19] +Starline: skimmed it
[20:08:26] +Starline: you sure type a lot for a 16-year old
[20:08:50] +Iron Manatee: You made the mistake of assuming I'm immature. I do debate. I write 10 pages essays in my sleep.
[20:08:59] +Iron Manatee: Which is why I sent you that message.
[20:09:10] +Starline: Well, if you're sorry I will leave you un-/ignore-ed then. Nice chatting with you, Manatee.
[20:09:18] +Iron Manatee: That's not sufficent.
[20:09:21] +Iron Manatee: Sufficient.
[20:09:23] +Iron Manatee: Whatsoever
[20:09:29] +Iron Manatee: In fact, that's somewhat insulting
[20:09:42] +Starline: "+Iron Manatee: You made the mistake of assuming I'm immature. I do debate. I write 10 pages essays in my sleep." <- eh, it's a fair assumption from some of the stuff you've said.
[20:09:58] +Starline: Anyway, if you'd like to continue this conversation I'd be happy to after I finish this tournament I'm in
[20:10:04] +Iron Manatee: You tell me that I did these things, and I send you a message, appealing to you
[20:10:11] +Iron Manatee: asking you to expand on what you say I did
[20:10:20] +Iron Manatee: And yet you act rude, snidely, and spite my message
[20:10:32] +Iron Manatee: I'm not particularly surprised, to be honest.
[20:10:42] +Iron Manatee: Correction
[20:11:10] +Iron Manatee: I'm somewhat surprised, considering that I sent you a message containing what I had hoped you would enjoy, since you thought i was immature
[20:11:13] +Iron Manatee: But clearly, I was wrong
[20:11:17] +Iron Manatee: Have fun in your tournament.
[20:12:03] +Iron Manatee: If you'd like to expand on what you said, when you said I used transgender in a derogatory way, feel free to explain. I would appreciate that.
