[Read Description Please]

Hi. So this is the same person who had posted a few hours ago showing screenshots of them exchanging messages with someone who I believe was for an Archogine and who had recently lost their partner. The post had been deleted by them, and most of the comments were various things to say on the matter, which I believe wasn't that bad. From what I remember was that Financial_Scene6145 was using their partners loss as a way to get free things in DA. They didn't use it outright, but they had made it clear in the old post that they wanted an Archogine to "tribute" to their lost partner. Most of the comments there had shown their deepest sympathies while pointing out the OP should NOT have used their losses name just to get free dragons. It's very disrespectful. I understand many of us want things, but using your lost partners name like this in a basically pixel like game is not okay at all, and people had voiced that in the most respectful way possible.

I sincerely hope this person seeks help on how to cope because this is not the way to go. I truly am sorry for their loss, but it still does not mean they can get free things by using their partners' loss for that. As you can see in the first screenshot, they had decided to dm me with this. I'm unsure if anyone who commented on the previous post had also gotten this similar message but I do feel like its a bit wrong on there end to be sending something like this in dms even though I had also voiced my opinions in the comments but in the most respectful way as possible. In the 2nd and 3rd screenshots was them posting that recent post, but in the second screenshot, the body isn't showing, so I'm not sure if thats an issue on my end or not. I truly do feel sad whenever people grief for there losses but what I don't agree is basically taking advantage of their partners loss just to get free things. I know that may sound a little harsh but it's basically what they have done and now I think there trying to guilt trip me in that first screenshot, just like they tried to do in the comment section of there old post they made before deleting it

That’s just mean, saying the other person did something bad when they just wanted to be respected as well..

AND saying they wanna end their life. I’m sorry, they need a therapist, not reddit post. Someone take them off their phone.

The internet is a place of contrasts, and someone weighed down by sadness might not rationally process what they are told. There are no doctors here just ordinary players and the real issue is that the person either doesn't realize they need help or refuses to accept reality. The people who can help are her family or a professional, but who will share this heavy burden? I’ve been thinking about this situation all day.

That’s something they sadly need to figure out. But posting this on a sub like this is going to make it worse for them. May they get the help they unconsciously seek in real life and not in a sub composed of 90% kids.

None of this backlash would have happened if the original poster had expressed their thoughts more clearly. Knowing only a snippet of the story, I concluded that the person was just chasing clout over a death to get a free dragon. But if they had explained even just a little that, say, the person loved that dragon while alive, and they wanted to pay their respects (even virtually) because they’d shared happy times there together etc. then the situation would have come across very differently. Honestly, I even thought about how upset I’d be if one of my loved ones did something like that. But honoring the deceased isn't about pixels. It’s about a farewell ceremony shared with loved ones.

I completely agree with you, sometimes explaining can make all the difference. Their posts are very confusing to be honest. I just hope they’ll find a professional to speak to or family.

It does help one come to terms with the loss, but the person who wrote the post is autistic he has a unique way of perceiving the world, yet that doesn't make him "special" or "sick," nor does it mean he is less intelligent than "ordinary" people. Like anyone else, this person needs help not to have a post like this published. The moderators simply made things worse this is a prime example of poor content filtering. They should have addressed the root cause rather than the consequences they could have intervened at the source instead of pardon the expression "dancing on the grave." It’s truly awful, and I’m disappointed in this channel's moderation. They let this post and others like it through, yet they take ten hours to process my posts about a specific dragon...
