Hi, it was proven a while back that apparently this was actually an attack article. I happen to have regular contact with the person this article pokes fun at, and he has changed a lot. Prior to the article being made he was just a generic GoAnimator who later left after some of the essential features were removed, but people trolled him for no reason. Later on people used this article to dox him and all that, and that pretty much made things worse. So yeah, I'm 100% positive this was originally an attack article. --Professional1337h4xx0r (talk) 13:08, 8 August 2021 (EDT)

- the page is probably going to stay similarly to SammyClassicSonicFan's situation, but the redeemed template always exists since the main sperg here is keegan salisbury, especially when that fag admitted to editing the article. apparently that User:FlynnR13 person knows garrett so we may get more input from him- thought he was a white-knight or tricked at first but now i'd like to hear his input.TwisterTesticles (talk) 01:18, 15 December 2021 (EST)

Flynn Here
The edits I reinstated were taken from way back in 2017, when Garrett was still considered lolcow material. Basically, Dax and I are good friends, and he's been open enough to tell me his side of the story when we first started talking. Seeing as though some of y'all have made it clear that Garrett long since changed his ways, I've got enough reason to make no further edits to this page.
