I know some of you have your own deviantART profiles, so perhaps you could help me figure out how to deal with a little problem I'm having.

Basically, I joined (or rather, I was asked) to join a group that I really wasn't that interested in.  Everything of mine that was in the group was because I was asked to put it there, not because I submitted it myself.

Anyways, the founder of this group replied to my latest journal entry there by basically telling me to start joining some of their projects.  I wasn't really interested, so I simply hid his reply.  It was full of broken english and hard to read anyways.  He replies to that by continuing to tell me to join their projects.  Finally I told him I just wasn't interested.  He then basically insults everything I've done so far.  I'd had it then, so I asked him to remove me and all my works from his group.  He proceeds to insult me again and then calls me an asshole.  I've since told him to remove me and my works from his group ASAP and to NOT contact me again.

My question is this: If he continues to harrass me, is there anything the deviantART staff can do to help me?

Hmm... I've never had this problem on deviantART, but I'm pretty sure if you contact them they should be able to do something.  If they don't do something, that would make it a pretty irresponsible site for not defusing this type of situation.

you can join groups; but just watch out for the 90% of groups ran by 14 year olds/retards, unfortunately, deviantart is filled with them.

add 'elitists' to your list, that's what I'm dealing with here.  I managed to remove myself from the group, but that still leaves all my deviations to be removed.

So far this is the only problem I've had with a group, all the rest have been worth joining :)
