Back on the CWCki, I spent months with a Pinkie Pie version of the Repo! avatar I currently use. It started with a spate of changes to MLP avatars as part of a forum-wide running gag regarding the brony population, and I maintained it afterward purely because it made people irrationally, enormously mad to see it.
When some people at /cwc/ doxxed me, they legit thought I was a brony.
Not surprising. As a former lurker on /cwc/, I remember they would insta-ban and spew vitriol at anyone and everyone that even thought of posting MLP-anything. It was one of their better policies.
There was actually a small "faction" on /cwc/ that hated the CWCki and everyone on it with a blind passion. They constantly sent in trolls and tried to dox as many people as they could, with the staff being the top targets.
Fun story: I was one of the people they doxxed back in 2012, when I was a moderator. The only trolling I got (despite my phone number, email, Tumblr, etc. being plastered around) was a pair of phone calls (only one of which even left a "JULAY" voicemail) and a pair of barely spammy messages on Tumblr.
To make things even better, they started fighting
because I was too attractive. They thought I was some basement-dwelling fat brony virgin with Asperger's, a neckbeard, and a fedora. And.....well, you can see my pictures in the Member Pictures Thread. Some of them insisted that they must have been wrong about me, because nobody as attractive and normal as myself could ever be a CWCki moderator. A few of them stopped trolling altogether because of the infighting over my prettiness.
