I personally, I just block like, um, and you know, I I'm someone I will literally spend
00:05
like 30 minutes just blocking like all the people I really don't care. I know it's like
00:09
a little small thing on Twitter about because I was blocking so many people and they're
00:13
like, you say anything she walks. Yes, I do. Like, like, like, I don't want to see it.
00:18
So bye. Um, so yeah, it was a thing people got mad, but I was like, I don't really care.
00:24
Like, I'm not entitled to read negative things about myself. Um, and just as you're entitled
00:30
to write that I'm entitled to block it and it is unfortunate. Obviously the block can
00:34
only do so much people make new accounts. Um, but you know, I just, for players, I don't
00:40
know that I just try not to read it as much or take it too personal, but it is getting
00:44
to the point where like, you know, I know that a lot of tournaments are trying to step
00:48
in and have different AI things. So I hope, you know, tech as technology increases that
00:52
can help. Um, but it is, it is tough and you know, you could be having like a good day
00:56
and then somebody will literally like tell you, Oh, go kill yourself. And you're like,
00:59
okay, thanks. Like, you know, so I really hope that players just continue to not look
01:04
at it and especially Caroline, she's a super nice girl and, and it sucks. But, um, I hope
01:09
people, I mean, I always say people can be more mindful and be kinder, but you know,
01:13
I've millions of people have said that and only few listen. So hopefully the AI stuff
01:18
can help, um, in the future. Okay.
