creepy DMs 

A few years ago I got this creepy DM from someone. They said "he will learn", followed up by a "hi" a few seconds later. I immediately muted them without a reply because they misgendered me in a vaguely threatening message.

As for what happened, I think he were talking to a popular girl who I had a disagreement with a day or two prior, and he accidentally sent the first message to me instead of the other person? And I guess he was trying to impress her by going after me or something?

re: even creepier DMs 

Now remembering another very creepy DM I got from some dude who was definitely an r/niceguy. He sent me a DM starting off with "hey there sweetie!" and said that he saw me on a forum and sought me out, and wanted to do a commission of my character. I told him I have no money, but then he insisted on instead talking, getting to know me, and roleplaying.

I told him he was making me uncomfortable because of what he was asking and because he, by his own admission, decided it would be a good idea to track down a stranger and ask them to pay him to make art.

He then said that he does this on a regular basis, and said "If that makes you uncomfortable, I can't really help you"

So yeah, mega creepy >,<
