As for the rest of what you wrote, I'm not sure what will happen. We will see. Who is this place for? Whoever remains, I suppose. The people who've in the past come to me with complaints about stalkers or abusers visiting this site know my position on people who do that and how I deal with them.
You make them admins.

Let me make this clear: none of this was ever mietze's fault. I have taken and will take full responsibility for the choices I made and the actions I took. Don't put words in my mouth.

You have, time and time and again, said outright that some things were decided on by all three of you and very knowingly implied that everything else was decided on in the same manner, except for the paroxysm of bans you issued to essentially every active female poster for justly criticized you over giving power to a rape apologist, and then insisted that nothing could be done about any of it until she was back. The only person who thinks any of this is Mietze’s fault is Mietze, and that’s because of you. Because you put all of this on her.
No one is putting words in your mouth. You are not dumb. You knew what you were doing.

Okay.
Legit question, who is this for now? You made a rape apologist an admin and then banned everyone who had a problem with it, almost all of them women, and then blamed everything else on a third party who, alongside everyone else on staff, has since quit.
What do you think is going to happen here? Do you think anyone is coming back? Do you think anyone who’s been victimized somewhere is going to trust you enough to ever actually bring anything here, knowing you ruined 20 years worth of reputation rather than admit you made a mistake by elevating your misogynist friend?
You’ve been around long enough that you should realize what happens every time a sequence like that plays out.
And it’s never, not even once, been, “everything gets better because everyone calmed down, quit being such uppity bitches, and understood what they THOUGHT was reality was actually just their feminine delusions.”
if a bunch of different women who have no connection to one another say someone is a misogynist with such conviction they’re willing to abandon a community they’ve been part of for years it usually means it’s not a baseless attack
you sound like every game owner who’s ever showed up here to defend some creep they were enabling on a game
it’s gross and it’s why this place is going to end up you, him, and the three people who upvote your posts
@misadventure said in Question: Code of Conduct:
@prototart Then you haven't been paying attention. What you just declared is that you, and everyone upvoting this, literally think nothing else here has ever been someone skating the edge of the rules and violating the spirit of them.
No one, ever.
yes, correct, the only person I have ever seen go to lengths to violate every spirit of a rule and then spit it back in someone’s face because they allegedly remained within the exact wording is him
@derp said in Question: Code of Conduct:
certain persons have gone to great lengths to skate right along the very border of what a written, explicit rule will let them get away with, and then choose to cite that rule back in the face of the mods when told to knock it off
literally the only person I have ever seen do this is you
@ganymede said in Something Completely Different:
The recent changes to moderation levels across the board were the result of extensive discussion between mietze, Derp, and I. I am cognizant of their appearance, but it was the product of agreement between the three of us.
so why did you lie and tell people via DM that Derp would be removed
auspice was not bullied off

when she joined
https://musoapbox.net/topic/2504/i-owe-a-lot-of-people-some-apologies?_=1652884563698&lang=en-US
and the post that she very coincidentally quit as staff after
it’s super funny because multiple people were told in DMs that Derp would be removed as an admin and that was just a lie and now he’s functionally running everything and crafted a rule that is basically just “don’t be mean to Derp, he’s just a little guy, c’mon”
and, like
for who? like who is this for anymore
this place is dead
everybody who actually posted is banned or said “wow, this is gross, bye” and even if those bans are retracted why would anybody come back when they’ve seen firsthand an admin policy based on narcissistic injury and gaslighting
none of this silent majority apparently intimidated by the mean girls appears interested in doing anything
so congratulations i guess I’m sure three admins and four posters will definitely make a vibrant community
lol lmao what a total fuckin mess
later, sluts

is there a section on spending like 20 years in a community where basically every single main character and surge of drama and Wikileaks style drop happened because an abusive weirdo was given power and his enabling friends refused to see why everyone had a huge problem with it and not at all learning from any of that
totally unrelated to anything going on just a totally random question
