In June 2020, I got put into mini games timeout for “using a base” despite the fact that I had drawn every single piece from scratch. I tried to explain this to the mod that timeouted me, I even layered my art in procreate to prove they didn’t line up the way something with a base would have, but they wouldn’t have it. They said unless I had video recording of me drawing each of them, which I didn’t, bc why would I, I needed to redo every single 30+ drawings I’d done over the past year or so. I was completely distraught, I didn’t even do actual artfight that year. The mod treated me really rudely, insinuating that I was lying in a very nasty passive aggressive tone. I quit mini games and just resigned to never doing them again. Even if I redid them, what was to stop them from accusing me of using bases again?? And I just didn’t have the energy to do a years worth of art again. The mod did tell me “due to how much there is you can just DM me with the redos instead of using the channel” (paraphrased since this was 2 and a half years ago I don’t remember the exact wording)

Now with the forgiveness thing that started I finally DMed a mod and asked if anything could be done about this, since a lot of mine were from 2019 and prior.

And that’s when I found out that apparently, this was never something official. This was not recorded in their records, in ANY capacity, apparently the only things I’d been dinged on was the 3 outstanding claims I’d never completed after the mod talked to me, one in each channel. I was really shocked. Idk if they never told anyone else or what happened, but the mod I talked to this time said they could clearly see none of the art was on base and was surprised to hear this at all.

Unfortunately this old mod is someone who I think the wider community still looks upon with fond memories so I’m not going to name names especially since I don’t know their discord anymore so I can’t get proof screenshots (and tbh I’d be hesitant to share them anyways just BECAUSE they seem to be pretty popular, and I’ve been doxxed in the past for speaking against a popular artist) but I want to ask if anyone else had a similar experience

The behind the scenes are so disorganized from what staff has told us, that I would not be surprised if you're being lied to now, and that it WAS in some capacity recorded, but they're looking to shift the blame to older mods (as they have been proven to do of late) rather than confess that they were pulling the puppet strings on that call. It's easier for the higherups to blame their former mods for not doing xyz since said mods have no means of proving otherwise (that they were instructed to do these things by the higherups, who were often not obligated to record things), than to take any form of responsibility. (We cannot provide you screenshot evidence of past occurrences in order to respect the privacy of all of the staff members that have come forward to us, we apologize!) If you would like to privately send us the screenshots you allude to, you are more than welcome to! We can keep these screenshots private between you and us, merely reference them without showing them to protect your (and said mod's) identity!

the funniest meltdown ive ever had was in college when i got so overstimulated that i could Not speak, including over text. one of my friends was trying to talk me through it but i was solely using emojis because they were easier than trying to come up with words so he started using primarily emojis as well just to make things feel balanced. this was not the Most effective strategy... until. he tried to ask me "you okay?" but the way he chose to do that was by sending "👉🏼👌🏼❓" and i was so shocked by suddenly being asked if i was dtf that i was like WHAT???? WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY TO ME?????????? and thus was verbal again

I don't know who needs to hear this, but as a creator -

I am fine with "the audience" -

downloading my fics

printing my fics

copy/pasting or screenshotting my fics

sharing your saved copy of my fics with anyone else who might want them in the unlikely but never impossible case that my fics are no longer available on ao3

making a book of my fic(s) and running your fingers across the pages while lovingly whispering my precioussss

doing these things with anything I create for fandom, such as meta, headcanons, au nonsense like 'texts from the brodinsons,' etc

I am not fine with "the audience"

doing any of the above with the purpose/intent of plagiarizing my work or passing it off as their own in any capacity

feeding my work into ai for any reason whatsoever

Save the fandom things. Preserve the fandom things. Respect the fandom things.

Enjoy the fandom things.

i'm one hundred percent certain that after percy and annabeth made out underwater. and he wanted to make their relationship official. the question was not "will you be my girlfriend?" but "can i be your boyfriend?" i don't care what the canon says. percy gave annabeth the space to take the lead in the relationship. because after a lifetime of being abandoned by everyone she dared to care for. and then watching her on the brink of a panic attack at the thought of losing him the last four years. he wanted to honor a new beginning between them by follow her lead and moving at her pace.

The world needs more Yue and Zuko friendship, I squeal just thinking abt the parallels. They deserve a life changing field trip together and if u have abt ideas I’m all ears 👀

Hiii anon this ask fermented in my inbox and in my brain for so long,, so take this??? Post canon yue lives/no war au arts?? Anyway aside from the Parallels and their political position & their duty before hoes grindset I think they could learn a lot from each other. With zuko learning the gift of patience & diplomacy from yue & Yue learning that allowing yourself to feel anger and speaking up can actually be Good.

anyway hypothetical life changing trip outcome: zuko takes an intro gender studies class and yue says fuck

(oh and also must not forget the crush on sokka)
