This is kind of an odd request, but its important to me so I figured I'd try my hand at it anyway. For the past six months or so, a friend and I (but mostly my friend) have been victim to pretty pathetic harassment as a result of drama that happened last year, despite the two of us not reciprocating said harassment at all. I won't get into it, but there's primarily one person, who wasn't even involved in said drama (is friends with a person we were at ends with), who has been publicly badmouthing us and going out of her way to harass us. She's even been turning people against us, but primarily my friend, who has noticed quite a few people stopped talking to him as a result.

I'm not asking for any white-knighting, as I generally feel like that does more harm than good, but I am asking, that if you have an account on deviantART, to go watch Retiquis if you like his (fabulous) work, and let him know just how talented he is on his page! Any kind of positive, friendly, and supportive message on his profile would be awesome, not only to let him know how talented and special he is, but to let this certain bully know that no one gives a shit about her immaturity and that you aren't going to shun my friend just because she wants you to. I'd like to make a point of showing that this juvenile, middle-school cyber-bullying shit isn't going to work and shouldn't be tolerated.

Most importantly, please don't mention that I sent you! In fact, if you aren't fond of Retiquis' artwork, don't bother watching him. But I'm pretty sure you ]will like it! If you do watch him, or comment on his page, just go as a random observer who likes what they see. It would mean a lot to Ret, and also mean a lot to me.

Thanks guys! <3
