the events of april 13, 2024

so as some of you already know, i actually got to speak to tycho today and have some really productive conversation on things that terras has been falling short in. i was excited to show you guys our chats since i think it shows a good explanation and forward movement for certain things (but as we all know now its pretty useless now lmao)

he did give me proof it was him by giving me a screenshot of his discord status, showing the edit button below, the following are some snippets of our convo (posted in a sta.sh link because there are a few)

towards the end of our interaction is when the big announcement happened, and afterwards the two of us discussed some of the things mods had planned for the species, including another subtype that would allow members to use limited traits

after this, while watching the server implode and having our lovely terras is over party, i received screenshots from someone on the mod team who wants to stay anonymous (note that in these screenshots, there are various yellow flagged messages indicating the screenshotter was replied to. the person i got the screenshots from is NOT temul. just for clarity and anonymity's sake)

CW for animal abuse

(while some of these may not be entirely relevant, im still posting every screenshot i received for full transparency)

so thats where we are right now!! its been a crazy ride soldiers, truly an honor hating with you all. time to wait and see what comes out in the next few days

as someone not in terraliens, what happened?

i’m going to be honest i’m not entirely sure anymore! something about coy lying to their staff about giving up ownership which made lots of them plan to leave. it became a whole mess due to people voiding terra’s immediately along with free limited myos that were given out i think.

right now the remaining staff explained that the issue was resolved but the whole server is still a mess. im not into terra’s very much though so anyone please correct me if i get things wrong ! 🍋

wtf is going on in tera? im 100% out of the loop lol

species called architecals pops up that are the same face-less anthro thing that terraliens are known for. as of right now architecals are about 5 days old so it's brand new.

terralien staff begin to prove they know what architecals are by staff member Kinah/Vernie putting it on their preference list in the dislike section

staff then proceed to make designs too similar to an architecal design for it to be coincidence, most notably the iron-gate pattern and ribbon-like limbs

bugbox's that has iron gate pattern

fishpert's that also has iron gate pattern

bear's that takes the ribbon-like limbs

bear had even offered on the architecal

architecal owner (AO) confronts them with the fact they made similar designs

proof that bear absolutely knew of the architecal before they made their similar design and that even the other staff were aware

bugbox then comments admitting they did indeed make the design out of spite for architecals looking too similar to terraliens for their liking, even though the architecal design guide explicitly limits designs so they will not be confused for terraliens, which bugbox admits they never even read

as well as saying they 'see no reason the species cannot coexist as long as there's that boundary' despite as shown above the terralien staff were the ones to cross said boundary

which is also hypocritical even if it was based off terraliens since terraliens were only made because they were originally a rejected cham myo

AO did not accept bugbox's 'apology' since all it did was confirm their actions were hurtful

bugbox proceeds to edit their apology

that's the beginning and end of it. even if you argue they aren't 1:1 the fact of the matter is they were made to intentionally spite both architecals and AO.

this shows terralien staff and bugbox in particular to be vindictive and petty, going out of their way to make their designs public and have other staff members aware that then proceeded to join in

Edit: Jan 11 2024 update

A PSA thread for Terraliens was made. It really, really sucked and was remade in the same day. That one's publicly available in the toyhouse service review forum. AO lost their toyhouse account from terra brown-nosers mass reporting them. Terraliens made their own response to it which was lukewarm at best, and then a better one after things had calmed down.

AO was helped by Terra's financially as their toyhouse acct was their main form of income and they'd like for their username to no longer be associated with the drama so they can regrow their audience. If you'd like to donate to them then please do so here. The issue's been considered resolved by both parties

You know, as much as I very much dislike Gin/Shark and think that they seriously need to get the hell off of the internet, this whole document really just feels like you’re exposing a heavy conversation that was told to you in confidence. It also has absolutely nothing to do with Terraliens other than the screenshots at the start of the document (which have no relation to the main points being made in the body of the doc).

Yes, it’s a lot to unload onto a 16-year-old, but OP reached out to Gin/Shark first to ask them if they were okay. And then continued the conversation / showed no signs of asking Gin/Shark to stop or let them know they were uncomfortable with the topics at hand. Which would give Gin/Shark the impression that it was fine to vent to you. If you truly didn’t want them dumping all of those things onto you, you should’ve told them that! Or nicely let them know that they should be telling this to a professional and not you: a 16-year-old stranger on the internet.

Also, Gin/Shark is only 19 iirc. As someone who’s in their late 20s, you don’t just automatically mature and become a grown ass adult once you turn 18. Y’all are pretty close in age, so trying to pull the “uuuuuh uh I’m a minor they shouldn’t be talking to me about this” card doesn’t quite work here. You just look like an asshole “friend” for betraying their trust and publicly airing out all the dirty laundry of their relationship with Coy that they vented to you privately. I sincerely hope Gin/Shark doesn’t find out that you posted this online because this is the last thing they need if they really are going to get better mentally.

If you’re gonna make a Google doc exposing them for something, this isn’t it. This just looks shitty on both OP and the mod of this blog’s part for not thinking that through.

in MY opinion, 16 and 19 is a weird gap to be dropping all your incredibly heavy baggage on, at worst this is like a high school sophomore talking to someone who graduated 2 years ago.

also i find it weird you say "OP reached out first," especially since the ORIGINAL screenshots in the doc (and assumedly the first of these "vent" convos) is them reaching out and saying "are you ok? do you wanna talk about it?" and civ immediately jumping to "i stopped taking my meds and im coping with alcohol." thats an insane leap to make. i also find it weird that veal had to manage the emotions of civ, checking their college schedule and making sure they do their morning routine and whatnot, and the spam in dms when they were in class and away for an hour. these are weird behaviors between two people of any age.

im also gonna add this reply i grabbed from the snugzi blog (who also posted the doc):

its weird youre putting responsibility on the younger person to manage the emotions of the older person while also saying "if they didnt want to talk they should have said so," instead of saying it was incredibly irresponsible of civ to traumadump onto them, and its THEIR responsibility as the older person to check themself.

and as an additional note, from this screen you can infer that civ would primarily talk to veal to vent. you can see a prior conversation form a week before where veal is reassuring them again. im not saying this is rock solid proof, but from this you can ASSUME that civ might have just been using veal as a vent dump. again, assume, so take it with a grain of salt.

my conclusion is that its not the responsibility of the younger person who is being traumadumped on to say "you should see a professional about this instead of a 16 year old on the internet!!" that should be the responsibility of the 19 year old who is dropping incredibly sensitive info on them and spamming them every 10 minutes when they dont respond for an hour. and thats not even mentioning the power dynamic possibility.

when a friendship causes one of the members to reach out to a completely anonymous blog saying "I don't know how to get out of this relationship now just realizing what the extent of their actions is, I don't know what to do and it's scaring the fuck out of me," maybe that's not really a good friendship
