Goons if I could ask you to read an effort post I'd like to suggest what I feel is one of the best things we could do in this situation. First off I would like to humbly request that we hold off on the discussion where to assign blame for this communities enabling of Lowtax's abuse for the moment- it's an important discussion to have, but I don't feel this exact moment is the best time to have it because there are more pressing issues to address that should come first. The one thing comment I have on the matter is: irrespective of individual levels of guilt that can be rationally (or irrationally) assigned to various members of this community; the fact of the matter is that the community (as a whole) bears a very significant level of responsibility for enabling Lowtax's abuse. We cannot wash this stain or undo what has been done, but what we can do is (as a community) focus first and foremost on helping Logan get into a better and safer space. I think when you view Logan's video and her recent actions it's important to keep in mind what exactly the context is and how astonishingly difficult it is for an individual in her situation to psychologically overcome the conditioning they have experienced and recognize that they are an abuse victim. At this point in her life Logan's entire self-identity, professional career, and source of revenue, are all tied up in Lowtax via this website. This is a very common situation for abuse victims to be placed in by their abusers and one of the reasons why it is often so hard for abuse victims to recognize the situation and extract themselves from it- so let's do what we can to make that (impossibly difficult) internal journey easier for Logan. Logan, sweetie, if you happen to read this I want you to know that you are a worthy human being who deserves love and compassion. Yes, even being an alcoholic bipolar mess in a terrible situation- you are still worthy of love and compassion. Your safety, and your future happiness, are more important than this community. So your level of responsibility for the current situation doesn't matter, what matters is getting you out of this situation and into a safe one where you have the time and resources you need to focus on your recovery. To that end goons I would like to propose that we open a GoFundMe of some sort to support Logan, get her away from Lowtax and help her afford the help she is going to need to restart/rebuild her life after this. I would also like to suggest that we open a simular GoFundMe for Lowtax's other victims, and in particular his children, who are definitely going to need support in the coming months/years. In my view these are the least we can do to acknowledge that no matter which individuals Among Us shoulder the blame, we as a community have a clear-cut responsibility to do whatever we can to help Lowtax's victims recover from the abuse that our community has enabled.

Where are people finding the police report? I checked around and couldn't find it besides random imgur links. The Lee's Summit police blotter also doesn't have anything for January 21st besides a lot of stealing.

HamsterPolice posted:The mods needs to step down. Yeah, mods are people too and they're not perfect. But this is a pretty egregious gently caress up. Just lol if none of the mods/admins leave because of this. I think getting lowtax to leave should be priority #1. Burt can leave later.

I'm pretty grossed out that he was mining his forums for women so much. That's not a good move, and a weak approach.

Should ask lowtax if he's innocent and keeps getting involved with these WaCkY wOmEn, why would the forums want to stay involved with someone who is such a chronically poor judge of character and can't stay away from people who threaten the stability and long-term survival of his sole source of income I mean this isn't the case but I want to see what the xan'd up response is.

i think lowtax will keep the forum around because he needs money and he is a rational and smart human being who definitely isn't prone to doing things out of anger like for instance hitting women and lowtax is really funny

He really thinks he still has all the power here, doesn't he? His patreon's been cut by over half and is probably going to be banned alltogether, he knows jack poo poo about how the website actually works, and his codetoucher and most of the other staff has spoken out one way or another against him. He's not getting out of this one untarnished. The man thinks he's made of teflon, but he's actually just full of poo poo.
