AHAHAAHAHA NOOOOOO

Not this guy.

 

[Mister Wolf]

How can he "groom" an adult?

 

[h00ters]

Whoa.

These tweets read like one of those viral marketing campaigns Microsoft ran for the Halo 2 and Xbox 360 unveils. ilovebees.com and thecolony.net

 

[Gravemind]

I'm having a hard time deciphering what this person is trying to say. Is she accusing Frank O'Connor of sexually "grooming" her? Not sure how you "groom" a 19/20 year old. Might be the wrong word for it.

 

[OutRun88]

Can someone explain what "groomed sexually by him at the age of 19/20" means? It sounds like something most people experience when coming of age.

 

[Grandmaster Hash]

How can he "groom" an adult?

she's autistic so it's not that hard to imagine

 

[Batiman]

Here we go again. I’m not sure if speaking up is even the right thing to do anymore when being accused. He might be better off calling lawyers. Men are gonna be scared to interact with women the way things are going whether frank is guilty or not.

 

[TaySan]

Heartbreaking and disappointing. I talked to him on Era and he seemed nice, but off from his postings. Taking advantage of someone autistic is disgusting even if she was of age. I hope for Stinkles sake this isn't true.

 

[kruis]

"Don't blame others for your own mistakes" is advice few take on Twitter.

 

[M1chl]

Cancel cancel culture!

I mean, fuck him, if he did something like, this however, why the fuck you would step in with this, with mob, if it was true...

 

[aerts1js]

Yeah I’m gonna wait on this one.

[LisaMariaMartin]

She was 19/20, hardly a teenager. She doesn't present a single shred of evidence either. People from the Halo community also blocked her a while ago. There is more to this.

 

[jts]

It's always the self-righteous ones.

 

[MasterCornholio]

sexually "grooming" her?

Is this what she means?

 

[brap]

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA FUCK YOU STINKLES YOU STINKY ASS MOTHERFUCKER

 

[Gravemind]

Here's some more. Sounds like she worked there? Idk.

 

[ManaByte]

So how is THIS Era thread going?

 

[dDoc]

Is it "metoo" day today or is it like this every day on Twitter? effffff

 

[Pallas]

Huh... she is autistic apparently, still groomimg is typically a term used for underage/minors., which might apply to her mentally.

 

[LisaMariaMartin]

Sounds like a totally stable person

 

[geordiemp]

So how is THIS Era thread going?

I thought exactly the same thing.

Grooming a 20 year old is called asking someone out on a date ?

 

[Mossybrew]

She's been living in fear for over a decade.

I just wonder about these kind of statements.

 

[Entroyp]

What the hell is going on?

 

[Mr Moose]

How can he "groom" an adult?

With a brush.

 

[Optimistic Gamer]

Cancel cancel culture!

It's kind of understandable. The group dynamic makes them feel not "alone" for the first time. It's like people at AA meetings finally finding the courage to deal with their issues... just way more public.

It's a complicated topic =\

 

[Starfield]

lmao

i tell you what. Todd Howard touched my peepee. Cancel him pls

 

[mortal]

Wait how do you sexually groom an adult?

 

[Cravis]

GO TO THE POLICE

Dumbass.

 

[Captain Zyrain]

 

[Optimistic Gamer]

lmao

I won't believe he touched it unless it runs skyrim now. SHOW ME THE PROOF!

Yeah sure, while we do not do AA in our country, so that's not what I have experience with. But my story, was inside me for 17 years and whatever. I guess, I need to take back my approach, because I guess, when someone attack you at very basic level, you feel envy, about twitter and "the easy way out of that". I hate to admit...

 

[cormack12]

This her?

 

[TheWisp]

I don't really understand what these tweets are saying

 

[Chiggs]

Watching him tear my dreams asunder.

That terrible line reminds me of this (yellow highlights).

 

[Batiman]

lmao

i tell you what. Todd Howard touched my peepee. Cancel him pls

He licked my balls! Someone have the courage to tell Twitter pls.

 

[EviLore]

Wait how do you sexually groom an adult?

Autistic adults can have the mental age of children.

 

[mortal]

lmao

i tell you what. Todd Howard touched my peepee. Cancel him pls

He kept whispering "it just works" over and over again

 

[iNvid02]

Seems like twitter send the mob week

On a related note, everything Jordan Peterson said about the sexual revolution's effects being only felt today are blatantly clear, there is no room for the required and nuanced shades of grey in romantic interactions so it's just shouting rape some time later

 

[kruis]

GO TO THE POLICE

Dumbass.

No need to go to the police, it's much much easier to destroy someone's career on Twitter than in a courtroom.

 

[Daffy Duck]

I have no words....oh lord.

 

[Greatest Of All Time]

She sounds insane. She was already blocked by a lot of employees at 343 for being a psycho before this even came out.

I feel sorry for the victim, because the victim in this case is Stinkles.

Fuck this Twitter thot.

 

[Birdo]

I thought this was a parody thread about the actual janitor at 343 Industries

 

[Optimistic Gamer]

Yeah I think a lot of people forget that this is not only about whether it's justified legally but how much of a relief it is to the person who was suffering from it for years. It must be massively liberating to finally get it off your chest; no matter whether you're just oversensitive or actual harm has been done to you.

(Best wishes go out to you.)

 

[Deleted member 740922]

Honestly no fucking idea what's going on here

 

[DeaDPo0L84]

Heartbreaking and disappointing. I talked to him on Era and he seemed nice, but off from his postings. Taking advantage of someone autistic is disgusting even if she was of age. I hope for Stinkles sake this isn't true.

What do you mean you hope it isn't true? Fuck that noise, he's being accused, he's guilty right?

Reee when someone they dont like gets accused: "I always knew something was off with him, good riddance"

Also Reee when someone gets accused but it's someone they like "shame this happened but I'll wait for more facts to come out and hope it isn't true"

Fucking el oh el

Oh yeah, I guess, I don't have to wait till second life, I was re-born in this one, so I guess that's something:

Oh this one I believe without a doubt.

Dumbass.

Can't go to the police if theres no case...but you can destroy someone's career effectively destroying this person life/and maybe his kids or wife's life too.
