Also the lack of self awareness is just insulting.
My ban came specifically because I shouted out ‘These other bans are unjust, if you believe them to be, you should ban me too’
… at least, that was the intent, they banned me pretty quick so I didn’t have a chance to fix the phrasing.

This whole thing just makes me feel generally kind of crappy and anxious.
-
Honestly? Good for them, I guess.
They’ve taken a pretty lively community that was interesting to read even without actively participating and turned it into smoking wreckage that they now seem laser-focused on pretending is some sort of triumph. As someone completely uninvolved who always kept a vague eye on MSB after self-banning, I honestly think that petty, immature ‘hookers and blow’ comment over there today pretty much says everything needing saying about what’s left over there for those who choose to continue dropping by.
I’ll be over here.

Same thing here as I said there. It just makes me tired. Although, probably a little sad too.
-
I was fine being a lurker and sharing my normal stuff cuz I couldn’t ever find over here - but someone posted the link and now I have and now I will come, and today’s stuff was just the last straw.
So, can I hang with y’all now please?

WELCOME TO THE CLIQUE.

I’m sorry, folks. This is a lot of heartache for a lot of people, and I’d fix all of it if I could. I agree that we really should stop talking about it. Stop talking about it, stop reading it, stop engaging with it – if you’re gonna be on both places just let it go, let it be both places. Stop trying to engage with them about this, it’s not going to do anything but oil on the fire.
I do want to say not just to @RightMeow but to anyone in the peanut gallery, NOBODY here is going to be mad at you for hanging out in both arenas, okay? I hope you’re not feeling too put in the middle by things, and if you are, I’m sorry, and if anybody can do anything please let us know.
Hello and welcome.

NGL, I’m really happy to have the name I use EVERYWHERE ELSE on the internet as my name here. I just realized I could have changed it over there too, but didn’t connect it option //I// could take so just stuck with a name I never really liked. >.>

Emphasizing this for mod voice boost.

It’s okay. I’m pretty sure I was nicely just invited to leave the board by Derp or he didn’t get I meant them.
It’s fine. Everything is fine.

I’m not sure I believe you but I’m not gonna poke at you any more, either. Instead:
This is my 7yo’s FAVORITE joke. It cracks me up every time.

Alls I’m saying is, since so much attention is being given to DMs over public statements, and everyone hand-wringing about how they are scared of bullies on the interwebs, if the lurkers who are bailing could also DM and/or post public notices about voting with their feet, that would just be neat.
… especially since they so rudely won’t remove my ban so I can edit that last post I made, rabble rabble.
-
I’ve never really wanted to bring that kind of attention down on myself, so I just DMed the most reasonable sounding person, erased my browser history, and hope they process the request ban.
-
@junipersky Fair. I’m sure anyone who actually does something like that will get a ‘wow, can you believe Rob Bobbertson was part of the Clique, too? They hid it so well!’… just casually put into the ‘problem person’ category while they continue to willfully deny even the chance that they could be wrong.
Still, the small part of me that embraces CHAOS would love to see it happen. I desperately need someone to quote them being bullies back at them whenever a thing happens.
