anghraineI kind of love whoever it is on f_fa who keeps periodically bringing up Kormir and how gamer bro assholes whined about her ascension (and still do), but actually she's really cool. The anon isn't me, but I a) agree and b) appreciate that there's some random GW1 player out there going out of their way to bring up Kormir on f_fa and defend her in 2023, even though I'm pretty sure most of meme has no idea who they're talking about.

And I'd just checked meme for the first time in months and seen someone bringing up Kormir again, so ... <3
