Also, this has been a really fun day. I haven't done one single thing of work while sitting here all day. I did drink coffee and got to tell one of my clients I don't work on their staff (I get to say that a lot actually), but other than that it's been researching my fantasy football line up for the playoffs and reading internet drama bombs.

Yeah, it’s weird how we’ve ended up with a solution that she is unhappy with given that she is pulling the strings of this whole website and all the admins dance to her tune.

I think the two admins stepping down spells bad tidings for the people who they generally supported. This is a shame and Bird was my favorite admin.

People who make ultimatums and get their way aren't usually 100% content with the result and feel they could've gotten more. I don't know anything about KM other then a few FYADs were super furious over a Patreon she runs calling it "theft"

Who really knows but this forums has a storied history of mods growing more and more powerful, lashing out for petty reasons, and eventually causing an issue to blatant and severe they are forcibly removed and/or the admin team apologizes. EPW, Hondarider, BobbieWickam, Aatrek(special case but was a TVIV petty tyrant), the chicken AC/DC hadoken, the YLLS atkins cult, radium, loosechanj, grover, probably at least a half dozen others I can't remember.

The more active, the more emotionally involved the mod is the more likely it becomes they rule with absolute contempt for anyone ever disagreeing with them or their house rules.

KM said they stepped down, and it seems to be a result of the others on the team taking the side of the transphobes.

Edit: Also FYAD is pissed at KM all the time because she calls bigots out on being bigots and has a patreon.

A) This is a weird post.

B) I’m pretty sure EPW stepped down because she got doxxed and weirdos were calling the place where she worked.

I thought they already knew where she worked, she had told her boss about it and he laughed it off and said don't worry, and she stepped down when they outed her on SA for her self published werewolf pesudo incest erotica. I know regular mods have been doxxed for just trying to enforce basic rules, I'm not aware of who they were.

Not all those mods were forced out, some just gave up and left after getting called out for lovely behavior. I'm only remembering the dramatic extis as retold every few months as part of the "remember when X happened"
