First and foremost, this was a prank. I came up with the awkward situation of what it would be like if someone on the internet randomly took a picture you shared and used it as a background. I wanted to see how that person would take it, as well as other people around them.
Second, I didn't have any bad intent. Nor did I want to harass or make icephoenix21 feel uncomfortable. I actually like icephoenix21 as a person and even if I didn't, I wouldn't deal with people I dislike in such a manner. I thought that she was the type of person to take it in jest.
Third, I planned on ending this prank once anyone started getting upset. In retrospect I should have accounted that the prank could be fundamentally seen as victimization. That is the last thing I want anyone to feel on this site.
I can take a joke fine, but as I said, it wouldn't be the first time I've had stalker problems.
I am relieved it was all in jest, though
