ariadnemToday I had to make a decision and because of that, I closed ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
stseiya_daily. It just bothers me that after two months of that infamous incident, things are still happening and worse of all, people are still getting hurt.
Just the fact that annonymous people contact Aurea to tell her that she's an art thief because she "re-posts" arts in another place is not my idea of respect.
In the community we posted fanart we considered was worth sharing. We gave credit and links for people to go and visit. It was for everyone to enjoy and we were spreading the love towards StS fanarts. I kept the community alive since Aurea decided to step aside from the fandom for the time being.
I find it the most disrespectful act, to do things and not saying them straight forward.
Of one thing I'm sure, one person alone cannot have the final word over a matter. Just because someone doesn't agree with the vox populi and has their own way of thinking, doesn't necesarily make it God's spell. And I'm feeling terribly irate against such acts.
Speaking in private wouldn't do me any good and that's why I'm speaking openly.
Having deleted the community saddens me profoundly, however, I won't make Aurea go through any of this anymore because the place exists or existed in this case. If you go and visit her website, you will find her pieces of art, both original and fanarts and once again, it will be proven that she's not what this person has called her. Aurea is an incredible artist. She owns her own comic, and trust me when I say it, she's got no need of claiming other people's arts as her own. Aurea's amazing works stand alone and give her the credit she deserves.
I had truly believed this matter was over. It hasn't and now, I'm sure it will never be finished.
I just keep learning to be more cautious when it shouldn't be like that. As a good friend of mine has adviced me before, it is better to take it all with a pinch of salt.
Too bad for me, I guess. I really used to enjoy this fandom.
To the person who wrote the mail, and FYI, Aurea is not South American, but North American, I, Margarita, am from South America. Colombian to be more precise. Contrary to what you may think, people from my side of the world, doesn't need to go on stealing for a living. That's not a career we have here. Most of us have pretty decent lives, and since one can only speak from experience, I'm wondering what kind of person you are. So go ahead and keep getting us into your stereotypes. As if we could care any less.
I truly hope this incident ends here. For good.

Esta no será la primera y única vez que suceda, pero uno aprende ciertas mañas con estas experiencias. No te desanimes, que no todo el fandom es así ^^. Todavía tienes a tus amigos cerca y Aurea tambien. Que no se desanimen por las palabras de alguien que no tiene idea de quienes son ustedes =).
Saluditos ^^!

¿Qué la gente no se cansa de joder?
Ahora, lo que más me molesta es que se vengan citando palabras de otras personas a molestar a Aurea!!! Digo, que no puede ir a joder a alguien más desocupado y que en verdad pueda y quiera pelear?
Como dices, siempre vienen cosas buenas y eso será en lo que nos concentremos. Desafortunadamente, esto tuvo que pasar, de nuevo, para darnos cuenta de que el fandom ya no es lo que fue (en el caso de Aurea) y de que la intolerancia y las ganas de pelea no faltan en ningún lado (en el mío).
Y yo que pensaba que el fandom en inglés era más "tranquilo" y sin Doñas, buff
Me han cogido en un mal día y espero que dejen de joder.
Saludos nena, y gracias por postear.
