Do you have proof of such slanderous and serious allegations?

??? I'm not trying to be slanderous, the fast vibrating and flashing image gave my friend a mild seizure so i was just trying to be polite and let you know... cause flashing images can give people with photosensitivity or epilepsy seizures and migraines. Sorry?

There's nothing slanderous about that lmao. It's a fact. He's just trying to help people who have seizures. Just place a pop-up warning and it's over lol

I'd rather delete my entire site than place a trigger warning on it. Neocities is all about self-expression, and you visit the website of your own free will. Take some responsibility and stop trying to police other peoples work.

lmao don't bother, he acts like a pissbaby any time someone tells him his page is seizure inducing, instead of maybe fixing the backgrounds so they don't constantly flash

fauux you are melodramatic as fuck. it's one thing to refuse to change your website to be more accessible but telling people to essentially "take responsibility" for having epilepsy (something outside of their control) is indefensible. grow the fuck up dawg!

like i'm sure it wouldn't kill you to add a toggle somewhere to disable the flashing instead of coming on here and whining about "self-expression" like a nine year old.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paradox_of_tolerance - fauux you can't have your "free expression" to be intolerant of others' medical conditions. It would be nice if you put a warning an/or had a button to opt-into the animated background

@niconiconova, I was aiming more at the people who complain about flashing images but don't have epilepsy themselves. It's always the arrogant people who speak for 'their friend' and other hypotheticals. I've never had someone who claims they themselves have epilepsy complain to me. It's always the people who claim they want to help but just want to control other people to stroke their own ego. Y'all be pathetic.

@justanotherinternetguy, phobias for example are also considered medical conditions, artists can't be told to sterilize and modify their art to cater to every single person coming across it. This web project consists solely of animated gifs, so having a button disabling all gifs would be silly. The website would be pointless then. If you want you can copy my website and make it epilepsy friendly 😂

Anyone actually suffering from photosensitive triggered epilepsy will take safety precautions when using the computer for anything. For example, you can buy glasses that protect you or install browser plugins to disable gifs. When you buy a computer or monitor, it always comes with an epilepsy warning. These people are not dumb and they don't need your virtue signalling masked as "help".
