i'm gay

 

[Kitter Bitters]

This is getting old. Just elect a new MFO or make it go minor already and be done with it.

 

[Silas Westgard]

The milking of this drama is diabolical xD

 

[Acier Moonbound]

iDubbbz, that you?

Always fun to stumble into these things and watch the mayhem.

Why are you bending over backwards to keep the GA around? Are they actually providing the website with the level of activity (within the last 90 days) that warrants this kind of melodramatic focus? Just wind them down to minor and put this stuff to rest, new members that see these shenanigans are going to think a) this is normal or b) this isn't a stable forum for RP.

The rest of us are just watching this like the dumpster fire in the middle of the trailer park that it is and it was only really entertaining for the first day.

Why are you bending over backwards to keep the GA around?

The same reason I helped the previous Mando faction when they voted in a permabanned Nazi as their MFO (unknown to them).

Short Answer: I don't enjoy a single person ruining RP for everyone (MFO abandoning faction.)

Long answer:

I thought I was helping save the vibes. And I was, for a bit. I'd wager more people joined than in the past month, based on the amount of complaints I recieved OOC that I was facilitating "shitposters joining GA" (with no concern that some of those people might actually be interested in joining now that Ghost was gone and I was involved.) I am human and fallible. I have made a mistake, one that was learned very fast, thankfully. I will not apologize for it, and would likely make the same mistake again. You live and you learn. It has become even messier as a result, and I am at fault for that - partially. But I am not the only one holding fault today.

And if I am treated a certain way, my mind drifts to "If they'll treat me like this, how will they treat normies. How will they treat CJs, FJs, RPJs, other Admins." I have preached against gatekeeping, second lifeing, self-inserted, for as long as I have ran SWRP. I have continued to do this, and will continue to do this, until I am dead. Because this community, and all RP communities, are jam packed with introverts who just wanna RP but get overran by the Discord DMs and OOC drama I faced today.

These people will never speak up, they will just leave. But I just have this itch man. Something I can't stop and I know none of you can stop either, unfortunately for all of us. When I see it, firsthand, I have to shine a light on it. Everytime. I have a pretty big fucking light, too.

I totally understand the initial reaction and your actions you took based on how they behaved, it was the over-the-top putting the faction on blast that I was mostly confused about (because it seemed like the end result was treating the GA like old yeller but only after a long game of beating a dead horse) but you explained everything else well enough that I get it.

I'm shocked at how much that song actually pops, Tefka

Like, it has no right to be as good as it actually is...

 

[Wedge Draav]

wow

It does doesn't it?

To be honest as new user, to me this means Tefka cares, and doesn't want to let problems fester long than necessary. Honestly I am not 100% sure what is going on, nor I am 100% sure if it could have been dealt in a better way. As said new hear so, those facts are beyond my experience here, but the fact he acted is sign he cares about what happens. Also banning the forum owner, from your chat room, is never going to end well.

Yeah, I wasn't talking about the things done on day one, I was referring to the meme posts and ai songs about members that aren't actually involved with the guy who crashed out.

Honestly missed all that, but I am a sarcy brit, so I might appreciate it.
