#seattlehqrpg

[vagabcnds]

i have tossed around making this post for months now, gone back and forth with myself and my friends about if it would even be worth posting this. honestly, i don’t know if telling my side of this is going to do any good, but i think it’s time that i added some more information to this whole situation so that even more people can see that our friends (and i use that term with as much sarcasm as possible) @seattlehqrpg​ , as well as her other rp @canterlotislandhq​​ , have not changed, and will not change. this is indeed another psa about this woman, but with some more information and one on one conversations with the woman. 

hey hi, hello, so, my name is maig, i’ve been around the rpc for over a decade, and right now you might recognize my multifandom : @hiddenwashington​ . we’re an appless multifandom that i started up two years ago. and over those two years, we have dealt with jasmine, jazzy, jackie, jacqueline, whatever j name she wants to call herself this time, on and off, for that duration. 

and just to clear up some information from other psas, i do not believe this is the same nova/jazzy that was terrorizing groups last year with attacking and fighting admins. we’ve spoken with j multiple times, as well as jazzy/nova, and honestly i can tell for sure these are not the same people. unfortunately, there is more than one bad egg in the rpc.

i have a ton of screenshots, so forgive me for not using them all. a link to a google drive will be at the end of this, for all of the screenshots i have of stolen asks, interactions, etc. but i’ll just be using key information for this specific post. or else we’ll be here all day.

when we first encountered j (we’ll just use “j” for now since she focuses on whatever name we call her more than the content of the psas. and all her aliases start with it idk), we thought she was just another person who wanted to join but sort of went about it the wrong way. we first got an anon on the main, asking if our current ginny (that being me) would be willing to give her up. because j wanted to play her. 

we had gotten an anon asking about if we were welcoming towards people with social anxiety (or something like that. it’s been two years now since this all happened so specifics are a little fuzzy. like i said we’ve been dealing with her for so long.) i pretty much hit her with “i’m not willing to drop her because i still want to play her but hmu on my character account and we can chat about other characters for you to play”. i had no idea that answering it would lead us down this rabbit hole i’m writing about today. we sorta chatted, she kinda just rambled to me about how she wanted to write someone not like her so she could have a challenge. valid. i tried helping out, i didn’t really know what fandoms she was into so i said what i could and then went onto the main. when i got back onto my account, she had taken it upon herself to critique my portrayal of ginny, asking if she would ever say ‘dick’. she kept messaging me, sandwiching that comment between other questions. i told her i didn’t appreciate unsolicited critiques. i tried to move past it but she kept at me about it. telling me she hadn’t read the books in 10 years. and only read one. the last one, in 3 hours. idk overall it was a weird conversation and i sort of thought that was the end of it. 

honestly, i’m not gonna spend a TON of time on this already too long psa going on about every interaction we had with her, every crazy thing she said. most importantly, we accepted her in, thinking she was just a little wild but us talking to her covered it. she ended up going in active over easter or spring break or something, wanted to take up another character, we told her to wait to pick her activity up. ya know, standard admin business. and then she started attacking us. telling us we didn’t care about her, about what she went through not having a computer or whatever. she started sending us anons about how her friend stole her money and we don’t care about her and we all hate her so why should she stay. it was kinda insane. again, check the google doc for all that. she ended up leaving, we got some anons about how she never joined other rps because of admins like us. just random things here and there, some anons about how dare we talk to people like we did. just random shit that really only she could come up with. but we had an rp to run, lives to get on with, tv shows to binge, idk fam. life goes on. 

honestly, we sort of forgot about this whole mess for like close to a year? that was when we started getting ims. from her. we knew bc it was the same accounts as before. she uses the same ones over and over, it’s easy to keep track of her. it’s sort of why we never felt the need to bring anything up, we always thought she was just stealing from us and we knew when it was her and when to refuse to accept the questions. this is where we enter phase two of hidden’s journey with “j” : the thief. 

this is one of our earliest encounters. before she started sending them on anon. 

(for some quick context, she would send us questions for fcs, ask if a character was open and then go around trying to poach our members for her group)

tw suicidal thoughts for this next picture 

honestly this goes on for like 10 more pictures, so instead of spamming here, the full conversation is in the google drive under the folder : a fight that almost was

she eventually goes on to call me out as the admin talking to her, i tell her again to message me off the main so that we could get back to actually admining our group. she hits me up, calls me “a cute ginny mun”, and then proceeds to ask me to help her fill out Her Own Application for ginny for her own group!! 

the tiktok video of “did a full one eightyyy” is all that is going through my head from this specific encounter. 

anyways. this is when the stealing really amped up, for not just us, but for the entire rpc. around this time, we had stupidly let her back into the group, i had wanted to keep my eye on her personally. see what she was stealing from the inside. idk i was dumb. this is also around the time the first psa about her came around. 

enter, phase three. it’s similar to phase two, but this time, “j” must tell everyone she is in fact Not A Thief™

so, during this time, it was around may of last year? while she was in the group, she started stealing more, we were catching her in the act, and we eventually had to kick her out of hidden. it’s not really a shock but ya know. gotta do what you gotta do. 

she was going by jasmine at the time. anyways. this is also before her current group @seattlehqrpg​ , when she still had @manilahq and @forgottenfriendshiphq or whatever she changed that too. she was getting a ton of “hate” over there. mainly anons telling her to stop stealing from other creators. valid. 

anyways, she would blame us for all of the stealing, that we were the true thieves. idk we were her scapegoats for a long time. i can confirm to you all now, i have never, nor have any of my admins, sent her any messages to steal fcs or anything to “attack” her. honestly we try to forget she exists but she just makes it so hard to ignore her with all of this. 

anyways, this has been our song and dance with “j” for a while now. we get an anon, we answer, she steals from us in a matter of hours. i’m sure everyone can attest to that similar situation. i mean, here’s just like a couple instances. i have hundreds in the google docs, dating back years. this behavior doesn’t change.

i mean, she has even gone as far as to steal our plot. sure, it’s not exactly original. every multifandom somehow brings all these characters to a city by magic or something. but the mention of the witch, the alternate universe city, the memories. it just all around reads plagiarism. 

so, check the google doc for more evidence i guess if you really need to! 

but, some things we’ve noticed, beyond her just stealing asks and plots and EVENTS ??? AND NOW TASKS ??? check out this post for the tasks, and this other psa for the event. because that shit is so fucked. 

she has also straight up stolen replies and claimed them as her own. my friend and fellow admin, was in her rp for a hot minute, and played pacifica northwest. (some information is crossed out for privacy) this was from us talking about the plagiarism, of her stealing from my friend while “j” was in hidden, which we both admin.

this is her post

and this is "j”’s, while she was in hidden.

i mean, same gif and everything friends. 

she constantly goes on about how she doesn’t look at other rps, how she doesn’t have time, that she’s running five other groups, but honey, we’re running those groups for you with all the stealing!! i mean, just as further proof that she is constantly looking at other groups, including hidden, to an obsessive amount. a member left her group (who then went and joined us we believe), and this was her unfollow for them. (i feel so sorry for that member to be called out like this?? how uncomfortable do you have to make your former and current members???)

and hidden’s character count that same day ??? coincidence, i think not.

listen, this isn’t meant to stir up more drama, i know it will and that’s kinda why i put this off. everyone had sort of said what needed to be said? it didn’t feel necessary to repeat the same shit we all knew. but with more of this happening, with her stealing plots, tasks and events. it felt like this was the time to strike, to get this awareness back up. she needs to stop, and if we all ban together, maybe we can stop it? i don’t know. but i have hope that this can all change if we have each other’s backs. 

this has been hiddenwashington’s side of the story, i’m sure there are still more groups out there with stories or stolen asks. and i am sorry to anyone who has had to deal with her. but just, do yourselves a favor and look out for anyone with a j alias, 21+. she/her, from pst. who also uses “RPG” a lot. 

a lot of this stuff is old, but she’s still doing this in @seattlehqrpg​​ i just grabbed these screenshots because it’s what i had on hand. but anyways. here is the link to the google drive with all of our screenshots we have complied.

if you have any questions, comments, concerns, what have you: my inbox (including anons), ims and everything are open and i am more than happy to chat!! please come talk with me about anything!!!

stay safe, and thanks for joining me on this season of To Catch a Plagiarizer.

TW: idek how to go about this or what to tag it but i guess tw autism speaks. anyway you know who is back. and she can’t spell anti right. seattlehqrpg blocked me but shes been harassing us again. at this point i dont even give a shit about all the stealing i just want her to STOP

[daydreamingresources]

just a lil bit of a psa !!

hello friends, I know it has been so long since I’ve actually been active on here, but hello! hope everyone is doing good!! but I have a question, has anyone ever had any problems with the main admin from forgottenfriendshiprpg / manilarpg and previously canterlotislandhq & seattlehqrpg​ - she goes by alex now, but has gone by different alias’ such as J, Jacqueline and Jasmine if there are anymore pls lemme know so i can add it to our admin sever and to this post!!

this is an individual that we have been dealing with for almost three years in our rp, her favourite thing to do is to steal our asks, basically word for word and send anons into our inbox and then copy the answer that we post. She has also copied several replies from different admins and members and stolen an event from another rp before, and there is probably a plethora of other things that she has done in the past as well.

I want to know if anyone else has had problems with her, because we’ve been dealing with this for a good while after we removed her from our rp for a number of reasons, which is a whole other long story, check out this post if you wanna see some of the reason why! if anyone has had any problems with her in the past and has successfully gotten rid of her, please dm me! myself and the other admins are getting sick of the constant anons that direct from the messages from actual potential members and not someone who wants to steal answers.

I really didn’t want to make this post.  I tried to put it off for as long as I could, but I’m tired of my rp being stalked and harassed.  The admin of seattlehqrpg has been harassing and copying not only my rp, but @yourmuseco​ and several others.  It’s been happening much longer for yourmuseco, so if you haven’t read their multiple psa’s yet then I’ll link them right here, and there are many other psa’s out there, but I’m going to put mine under the cut as a warning to other rpers out there.  Thank you for taking the time to read it!  TRIGGER WARNING: Autism Speaks.

So it all started last month when my rp got an app for Audrey from Descendants.  Nothing suspicious yet, until she was added to our discord.  Several of the psa’s have mentioned her bombarding ooc chats and complaining that she felt ignored as she proceeded to try and interrupt other conversations, which you can see below. (all other rpers other than her have been concealed for privacy).

and she also tagged many members, bombarded the admins, etc. which is also listed in psa’s.  Then, I discovered her new rp, @seattlehqrpg​ and saw that some of the anons she’d been getting looked a bit familiar, because they were copied word for word from anons I had gotten on my rp.  Below are some examples, the responses with a Meg Donnelly or Sofia Carson mascot are from my rp and the rest are hers.

And those are only a few of the examples.  This next one isn’t a verbatim copy, but note the use of the phrase, “Pardon the sudden mascot change.”  I could be wrong, but I don’t think that’s a common phrase, and the fact that she used it after I had was a little suspicious.

So, it got to the point where I made an account on statcounter and was able to track an IP address, and I thought I blocked it, but upon looking back over the account it looked as though she was able to bypass the block by going on mobile, and she’s been on my rp’s main at least three times a day since I removed her from the rp.  There was a point where I had to remove anon from my blog for a while because I was so paranoid, to which I got this response:

She also criticized one of my fc suggestions, both in our ooc discord and on the main when she mistook one character for another, and when several of our members corrected her she didn’t apologize or anything.

And now, the straw that broke the camel’s back.  We’d gotten an app for Mal from Descendants weeks ago, and knowing it was her I didn’t accept it.  I also didn’t reply to the anon asking if we’d gotten it.  And now tonight, I come home to see this in the inbox.

And what do you know, it’s from the same IP!  This isn’t meant as hate of any kind, I just don’t know what else to do at this point.  So all I have to say is, @seattlehqrpg​, you have your own rp, and I sincerely hope it goes well for you, but I’m kindly asking you to please leave ours alone.  We’ve removed you from the rp once and you’re making our admin team very uncomfortable.  Thank you all so much!

***UPDATE:  A few minutes after I initially posted this, this conversation took place.  tw: autism speaks.

My response was cut off slightly in the screenshot but I made it clear that I don’t hate people with Autism, I have a family member with Autism that I love very much, and the topic has never been brought up until this point.  I then blocked this account and hoped it would be the end of it, but then:

Asking if Tumblr ate your message is not harassment, I agree with that.  But constantly stalking our page after we politely removed you from the rp for activity related reasons, copying anons from our page word for word, then saying that I hate an entire group of people while comparing me to a terrible organization simply because I asked to be left alone, and then bullying me repeatedly over IM.  THAT is harassment.  I really am sorry it had to end this way, but I’m at the end of my rope.

so i really didn’t want to have to post a psa, but seeing as i got blocked, i guess i’m going to !

this is a psa for @manillahq / @fofrhq / @seattlehqrpg​ ! 

i’m an admin for @requiemhqs​, & one of fofrhq’s admins ( mia, specifically ) stole my gif icons that i use as my admin mascot, kathryn bernardo. 

let me preface this by saying, i have gif icons for kathryn. i have open resources that people can use. the gif icons i made for requiemhqs ( the ones they blatantly stole from the rp main ) were gif icons i made for requiemhqs. these are not open resources that people can freely use.

i really don’t want to start shit, but seeing as the admins have a history of stealing things, please spread this.

now, for the proof. please note that this psa was written at 1 am pst, 9/18/19. i was blocked around 1am which is what prompted this. please note that all links work as of 3 am pst, 9/8/19.

as you can see, a day ago (9/7/19), mia was using lisa manoban as her admin mascot.

however, as you can also see, they switched faceclaims to kathryn bernardo & started using MY resources. 

(exhibit 1.)

on requiemhqs:

(link.)

versus when they posted:

(link.)

(exhibit 2.)

the requiemhqs main.

(link.) 

versus, when they posted:

(link.)

(exhibit 3.)

on the requiemhqs main,

(link.)

then of course when they took my gif icon.

(link.)

(exhibit 4.)

the requiemhqs main,

(link.)

then when they took my gif icon, again.

(link.)

(exhibit 5.) *

* so this is repeated use of the same gif as exhibit 1, but i wanted to add it in here because it’s still stealing my gif. as you can see, again, i use my gif icon here on requiemhqs.

(link.)

when they use my gif icon again on fofrhq.

(link.)

(exhibit 6.) *

* again, this is repeated use of the same gif, but this time of exhibit 3. as you can see again, me on requiemhqs.

(link.)

then, of course, when they steal my gif icon. again.

(link.)

now, let me make something clear !

i did not just immediately decide to make this post out of nowhere. i tried to speak civilly with the admins regarding the situation as can be seen here.

as you can see, all i wanted was for them to take down my gif icons. instead, they blocked me. i noticed they blocked me right around 1am which is what prompted me to make this post as i said before.

upon doing further research, i noticed that they have had a history of stealing things from another rp groups, so i please caution any multifandom groups to stay vigilant because the admins for fofrhq / seattlerpghq clearly have no respect for other people.

here is a google slides i made of all of the screenshots for better viewing.

[seattlehqrp]

hi everyone! i’ll be going by admin doofenshmirtz and i’m really really tired for @seattlehqrpg​ copying and pasting a bunch of the appless rps, so i created this one! don’t worry, i won’t copy and steal from your group! just from the thief herself! so feel free to join me and make this group your new home xoxo 

( p.s. i’m not quite done with my copying of @seattlehqrpg​‘s pages yet so i apologize for the mess! )
