Give it another year before referring to it like this will be seen as anything other than seeking asspats.

If you're reading their comment now as seeking asspats, several years after the fact, I really doubt one more year is going ot change your mind.

The person in question admitted to getting off on being repeatedly scolded on meme and keptcoming back for more. The fact that they've identified themselves tells me they're not looking for asspats, they're looking for more scolding and spanking. Unless (general) you enjoy being used for this person's embarrassment/punishment kink, considering ignoring them not giving them that.

I have no interest in that. Not only is it unhealthy to ask people to say, “You poor widdle baby!” in the context of harassment, the further that exchange retreats into the past, the more pointless such behaviour becomes. (Also, obtaining validation from the Internet, especially a site whose users are grumpy at best, is a silly idea.)

Genuinely, thank you for the feedback. I’m curious how you think I should refer to the harassment and flagellation, not to restart the wank, but as a helpful reference.

You shouldn't refer to it at all. Call it a past exchange fuck up if you must. Your need to bring it up in detail and identify yourself as that specific wanker makes it sound like you think it's part of your identity and you're proud of your notoriety. That is messed up.

I think "That is messed up" is too dramatic, but the advice is sound. If you must refer to it, be vague enough that people can't immediately guess you and don't confirm if they do.

I am glad it wasn't a completely devastating event that meant you could never have fun in exchanges again, though.

They described it in an honestly relatively vague way in a relevant thread, somebody guessed and they didn't deny it. Unless you're theorizing half this thread is self-reply, that's a pretty big stretch to describe what happened

Thanks, and that’s fair of you to say.
