I mean they’re doing a great job of representing their source material.

Yeah, they also demonstrate that Star Wars is only really good when an unsung woman (and presumably a team under her direction) did a bunch of work in editing because the men weren’t that great at writing.

@SpilledBeanz
It’s worth noting that ONLY the people who were on the noms list had their noms wiped. They aren’t even hiding it well lol

Before:

After:

ALSO the guy that they were so proud of banning was still on the noms board until this. So, this “banning policy that has always been there” (which magically was enacted to ban everyone suspected of involvement or guilty of checks notes being angry that this harassment occurred) didn’t apply to David Ironsides - who was sending people sexual images a YEAR AGO - until they pulled this.

They were quicker to take action against the staffer who moved against predators than they were the actual predators. They were quicker to take action against people who said “uhhhh this seriously happened and y’all didn’t care???” or who were simply ASSOCIATED with the people who moved against predators than they were the predators.

So much for “Standard procedure”.

@Drowsy That this is called “Cujo’s Cup” – the jokes are writing themselves.

@BloodAngel

This is more the angle I was thinking about ‘cup’. But, you know, that’s the angle I’m always thinking.

[BloodAngel]

@Pavel Well done.

[Jax]

Wow 2805 is a lot of +noms. It’s not 3089 +nom impressive.

[Bessarion]

@mietze I was not implying that he wasn’t capable of being sexually inappropriate, but rather that given my own experience with him, it felt out of character and the commentary felt like punching down. I have since been corrected in my understanding.

[IoleRae]

Perhaps the default assumption, in relation to instances of sexual abuse, should not be “bitches be lying” or “bitches be mistaken” when it’s brought up, even if an individual personally did not experience it. Can we perhaps not do that? Fucking please?

[Pax]

[Bessarion]

@IoleRae Yeah, that was my bad and it’s not cool. I genuinely thought they were mixing people up, and even if that was the case, I shouldn’t have said anything unless I knew for sure that they weren’t.

You’re not the only one that did it, but I REALLY appreciate the self-awareness and acknowledgment. Even I pull this shit sometimes, it’s really damn engrained.

You’re not wrong. Each nom level had a description, and Cujo’s Cup said something like “Think about it” as its description.

[Bessarion]

Seeing the name Adhar reminds me that he was a creep, but I can’t remember why.

[bear_necessities]

@IoleRae wanting a conversation about someone being pitiful/pathetic and potentially mentally disabled to end is not the same as dismissing someone’s complaint about sexual harassment. @Wizz provided a link to the complaint (which, thank you, because I can’t search MSB) and if the conversation wants to focus there then that is fine.

[Testament]

Can we just go back to talking about the ‘Do Not Arx’ image?

That was a bit more fun less uncomfortable.

[Wizz]

I wasn’t aware before this thread that he was cognitively impaired. That explains quite a lot about his other behaviors, and in that light my laughing at them was in pretty poor taste, and I’m sorry. @bear_necessities and @Bessarion were right to come to his defense and point that out. I said what I felt like I needed to say about where his inappropriate behavior crosses a line and @mietze explained how that isn’t excused by disability and that you shouldn’t hesitate to maintain boundaries just because someone is disabled, and that’s probably just a good place to leave it imo.
