This isn't even relevant so I'm just screaming into the void lol
But it always struck me as stupid Fable ClownLover would tell people not to use ""their ideas"" when it was just a general prompt. Two cakes and all that isn't part of their world view I guess
I wrote a little for a prompt someone else brought up, only for Fable to throw a tantrum because ""It's theirs"" and ""If someone else writes it I won't"" -_- Making everyone wait for theirs first and everyone ended up comforting them because it hurt them so much. Reeeeeally killed my hype for writing anything there lmao
You're not alone.
I've known other authors who felt similarly stifled, like they couldn't write something because it was an "already claimed idea," but everyone is entitled to their variation. At the very least, I've known some who asked other members for permission before pursuing a similar idea, and others who explicitly asked Fable not to take their idea and felt summarily ignored. I've heard at least three different instances involving Fable directly. There's no way to copyright an idea, but it does feel insulting to be told one thing and witness the opposite by the same person.
For what it's worth, you're allowed to complain here. I can't guarantee anything will come of it, but even screaming into the void, it's nice to feel heard.
so what i'm extrapolating from this is that the ex mod probably wouldn't have been harrassed half to death if not for you using that screenshot
That's correct. This is something I already accepted accountability for and mentioned two weeks ago, so I'll quote it here for you:
I have to confess that I did use one screenshot without permission from the ex-mod. They complained about issues in confidence and I lifted the modlog screenshot to use as evidence that the Underage thread even existed. I realized after that the server assumed the ex-mod wrote my post and sent harassing messages to them in response. I do apologize for the misunderstanding and the unintentional harm it caused. However, as the hostility has ramped up against the ex-mod, I no longer have reservations about using the rest of their screenshots. I feel the server deserves the truth, and the ex-mod deserves to have their story brought to light. As they cared about the server members, I will continue censoring all names except Fable’s. The colors and acronyms will remain as consistent as possible.
I never wanted to get innocent people targeted, because that is exactly the kind of behavior I observe in iSluts. Everyone’s names are also censored for that reason. I made an anonymous account to avoid retaliation, something I expected in iSluts.
While I didn't expect Fable to work up their server with such vitriol, I didn't want to believe people I considered my friends would be the type to send death threats to someone without confirmation that they were in the wrong at all. Instead, they just took Fable at their word and assumed it was the ex-mod.
Even after the first post went up, Fable kicked someone else from the server and publicly implied they had a hunch who it was and already took care of it, again, without evidence. My screenshots dated for April 2 were taken after that person was kicked, more proof that they act on impulse rather than with proof.
And despite my post on April 23 explicitly stating I used the screenshot without permission, the harassment on the ex-mod escalated. Which tells me either they didn't read the post, or they didn't care.
It's much easier to discredit someone who isn't present to defend themself, and even when the truth is laid out in detail, people still won't read it. They'll believe what they want to, what's convenient for them, and never consider they are wrong until things implode.
So, to your point, if what you're trying to imply is:
I should not have expected people I once respected to not send death threats and racial slurs to someone for any reason, or
That I had too much faith that they'd get both sides of a story before condemning and dehumanizing someone based solely on the word of the one who mistreated them,
There's this wonderful post from creatingblackcharacters, listing the assumptions about racism from Robin diAngelo's White Fragility.
Point 3 states: "I will be the judge of whether racism has occurred."
A lot of people try to gatekeep the hurt of POC by judging whether they look POC enough. (Also an easy way to discredit white-passing POC if they haven't experienced racism "enough.")
As if this would somehow erase and invalidate the impact of Fable's behavior and treatment when they knew the ex-mod is POC.
This is an incredibly racist thing to do, to discredit someone, because they don't act or sound the way you think a POC should sound.
Like calling out poor treatment, being called emotional and unable to make judgements, and being ordered to go hands-off when addressing another POC in the server, all while having no actual mod authority and power, is somehow "entitled" behavior.
That's the accusation of someone who wants to harass you, troll you, exhaust you, and silence you. Racists really will do anything to discredit and demoralize someone they don't like or respect.
I frequently feel like whenever Fable "tries to do better" and "encourages reaching out to them"...that it's all lip service. I feel like they don't actually care. They just care about being a micro micro celebrity or whatever.
This does feel like the general consensus from the current and ex-members I've interviewed.
Although Fable previous encouraged people to reach out to them, there was a reason why they didn't and went to mods instead.
To me, it feels like damage control, preserving their image, but I don't get the impression of empathy from the way they act in their own server.
I don't think that apprehension will go away overnight. Fable will have to show they can be trusted and will actually do something substantial beyond empty assurances and platitudes. If you still feel this way now, others do, too.

For clarity and in case there’s any confusion from people who might have seen me in the server, apos is the name I went by for most of my time in there and what everyone knew me as, troue is a display name I started using after getting my art and writing leaked out of said server multiple times.
I joined the server on December 13, 2024; I was promoted to moderator on October 23rd, 2025 and left the server on January 27th, 2026.
Important points, or tl;dr:
I did not write the document being shared around.
I do not hold Anti/Fandom Cop beliefs.
I did not harass or target anyone.
Charlie misrepresented my character to protect themselves.
More below the cut.
I did not write the document being shared around.
The ‘evidence’ of me doing so (the modlog) was something I sent to the person who initially wanted to report the server for the content in the underage thread. I sent it in as proof it was gone in hopes they wouldn’t compromise the entire server and everyone in it by reporting.
(In case anyone reading this isn’t aware, when TOS breaking material is shared on a server, everyone in it can get their accounts banned and even if unbanned, they are ‘marked’ for a couple years, regardless of involvement.)
It was also sent to a couple people who were concerned with the presence of the content, or even left because of it once Charlie sent a message in the thread and alerted everyone of its existence by pushing it to the top of the list, as well as drawing attention to what was in it by telling the members to stop sending images in there.
(I remember when a member inquired about the rule change, Charlie said it was just a general statement, that nothing had happened.)
I do not hold Anti/Fandom Cop beliefs.
(It is worth pointing out though, a user who had been kicked for racist AUs and talks was re-invited to the server after I left).
I do not engage in anti or proship discourse, yet everyone was so quick to call me a hypocrite because the underage thread was brought up and I happen to dabble in gore and heavy angst. I simply do not engage with things that I don’t want to see, and I mentioned this multiple times in the server in regards to content that’d trigger my PTSD. I also explained to the other mods that I couldn’t personally moderate the underage thread when I found out about it, and I don’t think I need to explain why this is.
I didn’t know of the thread’s existence until it was brought up to me in regards to a report due to the TOS breaking images in it, and Charlie had not been moderating it for their own reasons.
My angle was never one of censorship. Every time I brought up the thread it was through the context of how it could jeopardize the server and the members if a report came in, never under Anti mentality like how people have been accusing me of. Or it was to point out raceplay discussions and art that were in the thread, despite Charlie being vocally against it and previously kicking members who engaged in racist rhetoric.
I did not harass or target anyone.
All my interactions with the black member Charlie accuses me of targeting (Named A for anonymity) were cordial and I only talked to them a total of three times in DMs.
(These will be paraphrased for the sake of keeping their anonymity).
Once because I, as a mod, asked A to take a breather because they had been having a public meltdown for hours and people were feeding into it rather than worrying for their wellbeing. Their friend B called me names, accused me of racism (despite me being a brown person who faces racism on the daily and was looking out for another person of colour, while they are white) for it, and refused to let me speak. B only calmed down after Charlie, their friend and a white person, told them to stop.
As far as I know, no action was ever taken about B’s outburst other than a talk where they excused it as being off their meds and never apologized to me, only to Charlie. Meanwhile, I talked things through with A and made sure to clarify I never meant any harm by asking them to take a breather. It was my impression they understood, they explicitly agreed with me they needed a break, and the conversation ended with me encouraging them to voice their thoughts more because I’d always support them in calling out racism in fandom.
Another time, simply to let them know they could make a thread to compile their ideas since they had been discussing a topic at length and it’d be easier to archive and look back on that way.
The last time was when I asked them to please be respectful and stop bashing a popular Isat AU. I let them know they were justified in criticizing and disliking it, but that it was making people who enjoyed the content very uncomfortable, as it was less constructive criticism and more airing out every grievance with the AU and its characterization. I also explained why this particular topic was extra sensitive in the server, I let them know the discussion for that AU had previously gotten so toxic and intense it reached the writer and the thread on it had to be deleted.
They expressed regret and asked if they should delete their messages. I said no, please just keep it in mind for the future and the best apology they could give was changing their behaviour.
For extra context, by this point I had gotten multiple reports of them doing this in the past with multiple topics.
As a sidenote, if you want a couple examples of what A and their group were up to and the kind of reports I received; a couple of them were:
Shit-talking Isabeau and anyone who liked him constantly and cutting off conversations about him, on grounds of him being white.
Accusing everyone who liked Isafrin of racism.
Insisting a fic writer must be racist because they didn’t write enough Mirabelle, or her as the protagonist, in an Isafrin fic another member was promoting for fun and lighthearted discussion.
Despite seemingly accepting they simply messed up, and me comforting them as best as I could, letting them know no one was angry at them, A went to Charlie saying I had been targeting and harassing them. Charlie acted without any evidence and forbade me from talking to them, then later admitted nothing I said was bad, that they had been too harsh on me and that nothing I said to A was even rude.
I’ve been told they continued this behaviour after I left, arguing with server members, bashing people’s fanfiction recommendations and fic writers in the process; causing a fandom critique channel to get deleted after a particularly nasty fight with other members.
Charlie misrepresented my character to protect themselves.
When I left and people inquired about me, they told everyone that I was petty, had poor judgement, that I leaked private matters and that I had been unfairly harassing a black user. Any message asking about me or arguing with them was deleted, the announcement about me becoming mod was deleted. Most if not all of the conversation directly after I left is completely gone.
(I'm using the screenshots shared in the doc, as I’m not in the server anymore, and I only know about these conversations because people informed me of them).
Despite what Charlie claims here, I continued to get multiple reports on this group’s behaviour. And, again, continued to be told it wasn’t a problem.
In fact, the reports continued even after I left.
This next image was my last message before leaving, right after I sent in my resignation letter and Charlie refused to read it. I watched them immediately start typing after I sent it in without doing as much as glancing it over and got pissed.
How would you feel if you tried your best to advocate for people who felt they had no voice in the server, got repeatedly dismissed and told these issues weren’t a problem, and, as a person of colour, were told to take a more hands off approach when it came to racial issues like race based preferential treatment, racial biases and racist writing; and to instead leave it to the white people?
And again, the behaviour persisted. Not once was there any known reprimand for this group’s frankly nasty and abusive behaviour. While all their venom and spite was public, any talk and promise of improvement was kept between them and Charlie and not once did I see any sort of change. If anything, they got more comfortable with their bully behaviour and saying whatever they wanted without consequence.
Now, this had been going on for a while, it was not a one off thing. Many times I’d inform Charlie of a report I received, or question a situation as it was happening and be met with the answer that it’s not a problem, that the issue had already been resolved and didn’t need moderating. Yet the behaviour persisted.
Multiple times I received reports of either A, B or their third friend I will refer to as C; and got chastised by Charlie for simply asking them to keep things civil. I consistently got told things would be fixed and they’d have a talk with them. Charlie was the only one who participated in these talks and could even confirm they happened. I was not informed of them or told what happened other than ‘Yeah they’ll tone it down’ to no change. The other mod didn’t participate in any discussion in mod-chat, so I doubt they were involved either.
If you want to see a clear example of this, this doc has done a wonderful job compiling one of the biggest incidents.
There were many, many more but I feel the dogpile of a new member and Charlie’s involvement is more than enough proof things were never right in regards to racial conversations.
Anyone who has access to the server can see many other instances of this group’s doing, as their words were never censored or deleted. Anyone who spoke publicly against them, even in good faith was labelled a racist or bullied into silence.
Yet, I was the one blamed for the issues in the server.
Charlie says that I am unable to handle this conflict fairly because of loyalty to my friends (Despite them showing it’s them who has this bias). I take this to imply that I am too emotionally invested to be able to make decisions regarding this situation, that I am too emotional to make choices for the safety of the community.
Charlie, a white person, is telling a person of color that they are too emotional about the topic of racism to make fair calls about it.
There is a known history of white people calling POC too emotional or irrational to be in positions of power or responsibility, a pattern that Charlie is continuing. Instead, they have decided that only the white people (as I was the only mod who was a POC) are rational enough to make the calls on handling racism in their community.
Despite my best efforts to address these issues calmly and professionally, I was still labelled emotional, unfair, and unfit to have any sort of power in the server.
To give some more context, by the time Charlie sent me this dm, I had already written a resignation letter outlining my issues with the server and resigning from my position if that’s how they wished their server to be run. I know it has been shared around, but I’ll add it here for anyone who wishes to re-read it.
I'm leaving my position and the server because I truly do not agree with how this server is being currently run. There's been so much inaction against bad actors, and inaction in general, because why am I the only one bringing up these issues, modding the chat and debating you into acting? You letting them hide behind righteous morals and supporting their actions and baseless accusations has created a space of hostility and fear that is no longer the welcoming space I joined about a year ago.Â
I understand the majority of the server is white and needs to hear about these topics, and it's one thing to give room for debate and discussions of inequality and biases, but you've allowed these to become fear tactics. The server has turned into one where people can't engage with media they enjoy or join discussions with an entire group because they might be attacked like I was. Or like [1], who used to be their friend, but got dropped as soon as she dared to disagree with them. Or like [2] was, over what was frankly a stupid, minor misunderstanding and miscommunication. You've let people get away with hostility and frankly bully behaviour because you don't want to cause them distress or think it's witch hunty.Â
But you need to ask yourself, are these people being targeted or are they simply behaving in ways that deserve to be called out frequently? What you've been doing with putting these people on an untouchable pedestal is no different than the racism you're allegedly fighting against, you're still dehumanizing them by not treating them like people who can make mistakes and need to called out when they do. It's not witch hunty nor is it any sort of anti black tactic (as you, for some reason, think) to keep order in your server. Giving them preferential treatment based on race is very shitty of you.
Just because [A] is black doesn't mean he's excused for his racist and misogynistic writing, projection or not. And even if he was, he's still writing asian stereotypes with Odile. It's an insane double standard to let [A] talk about whatever he wants but saying we need to keep an eye on [3] for participating in racist conversations despite both of them being black. You're taking the word of this group over the one of so many other POC who don't agree with the way they conduct themselves or have these conversations (including me, [1], [4] and [3]) and none of them feel safe in the server anymore. We never asked them to be kicked or silenced, but rather to have their frankly unacceptable behaviour checked.Â
You can argue you've talked to them and done your part, but if I'm getting messaged about how 'x and y are doing it again' so often by people who tell me they can't trust you to interfere, either because you're on their side or because you're their friend, then that's beyond anything I can do or manage myself. I shouldn't have to defend you, this space, and how kind and friendly most members are to people who have been intimidated or had their view of the entire server soured by this group.Â
I truly wish this server well, but I can no longer say I'm happy to be part of it. And I'm not gonna stress over its wellbeing when it's become so unwelcoming.
For clarity, A is the black member previously discussed, and the group mentioned is their friend group consisting of B (White person) and C (Another POC), who had previously targeted many users, caused trouble, were generally unpleasant to be around and only relented when Charlie stepped in (if they did).
A couple other users who had been sending in reports on this group’s behaviour or had been targeted by them are also named, but will be censored as 1, 2, 3 and 4.
That was meant to be the end of it. Agree to disagree. And you could argue I was petty for sending that last message. But it also led to people bringing up their grievances with the server, so I can’t say I regret it. I will admit I was angry that I felt so dismissed, that a white person was blaming me for all conflict and stress when I was bringing up issues with racism.
What I could not imagine was that the narrative Charlie would spread was one of me being biased, a petty liar, and that I was engaging in anti-black tactics.
Nor did I expect 90% of the server would buy into it without a second thought and very easily decide that I was now their enemy.
Again, I ask, how would you feel if you tried your best to advocate for people who felt they had no voice in the server, got repeatedly dismissed and told these issues weren’t a problem, and, as a person of colour, were told to take a more hands off approach when it came to racial issues like race based preferential treatment, racial biases, and racist writing; and to instead leave it to the white people? And then everyone hated you for it, on a white person’s word alone.
A server that you had previously considered a welcoming space, where you thought you had friends, had suddenly turned on you, a minority, for pointing out issues with racism and biases from the owner. Said owner, a white person in total power and privilege, didn’t even have to give a shred of evidence for their accusations. Everyone blindly believed them and refused to hear any reason.
On their word alone you were labelled a piece of shit, a hypocrite, told you deserved to die, that you only bring drama, that you are a liar who cannot be trusted.
And at no point did Charlie, the owner of the server, stop them.
In fact, when the server publicly bashed me because they thought I was the writer of a document discussing the underage thread, Charlie didn’t stop them either. In fact, they encouraged it and even said themselves that they thought it was me.
At no point were any of the users reprimanded for the way they spoke of me.
The server, in fact, the fucking echo chamber of yes men it is, turned this into praising Charlie for the space they had created.
Again, no one was penalized. Charlie never cleared the air or admitted their mistakes. As far as I’m aware, they never admitted to lying about me, they never publicly admitted any fault or missteps in their handling of anything.
Not once have they admitted that as a white person, they turned an entire server and some of its biggest fandom creators against a brown person to make themselves look better.
I have been blocked and shit-talked by fandom creators I looked up to, artists whose work I enjoyed, writers whose work I admired. Most of this god forsaken fandom has turned against me. All on a white person’s word.
A second document dropped with even more evidence of Charlie’s mistakes and lies, but judging by how the server reacted to The Bitter Ocean situation (instantly dismissing it as nothingburger drama and Not Even Fucking Reading what the situation was about), I genuinely doubt anyone bothered to read it either. I doubt anyone in that server of 99% white people cares, they’d rather get back to writing their porn and jacking off than give a minute of their lives to thinking about racial issues.
They don’t care about unjust treatment and lies, they don’t care about the racism Charlie is displaying and instilling. No one bothered to get my side, and if I tried to speak on it they quickly dismissed me and blocked me. They’re happy to cause as much harm as they want, just as long as they get to keep their ‘freak’ community and bond over dismissing minorities.
It’s sadly common, white queers often think their minority status in regards to sexuality or gender negates any racial bias. Add on that they are ‘freaks’ for what porn they enjoy and they somehow think they’re exempt from anything.
And I’m not calling anyone who instantly took their side a bad person, I understand it’s easier to blame everything on someone who isn’t there anymore. It’s much easier to say that apos was a piece of shit and everything is just and right now in the land of the freaks.
But I’d like people to consider why they were so quick to cast judgement on me, someone they know is not white. Why were they so quick to believe Charlie, a white person with all the power and privilege in the server?
Is it because Charlie writes? I write too, in fact, Charlie has praised my work before.
Is it because Charlie draws? I draw too, and frequently took requests from the server.
Is it perhaps because Charlie is white and I’m not?
Is it because Charlie holds all the power here, and can easily rewrite the narrative?
Is it because they cared about the situation and the harm they caused me so little, that during their apology to me they were chatting and playing games with other people?
I’m genuinely on my hands and knees begging everyone to use their brains and the best most of them could come up with is ‘nuh uh’.
People have contacted me just to tell me that even after more evidence has come out, they don’t regret what they said.
I’ve even had to close my askbox because of the amount of hate I was receiving.
As a conclusion, I will leave you with this screenshot from Charlie. Cut to preserve the anonymity of everyone else mentioned in the rest of the message.
It is scary! Although to you, it’s scary when it happens to your friends and it’d make you look better to fight against it. You’ve shown it's totally okay when you’re the one leading the charge against someone you don’t like.
And congratulations, because it worked. No one in this echo chamber of a server thought to use their brain for more than five seconds and consider ‘Hey, maybe apos isn’t all those things?’ Or ‘I’ve talked to apos before, that doesn’t sound like him!’ You’ve surrounded yourself with so many bigots who value their own comfort and interests over the safety of minorities, that launching a hate campaign against a brown man is seen as okay.
You publicly used a black person as a shield to protect yourself from criticism, while privately denouncing their actions too.
You claim to be outspoken against racism in your server, but it’s okay when it benefits you and your narrative to be the poor victim who did nothing wrong, and it was in fact all on ‘that nasty monkey’ that got kicked for being (allegedly) a piece of shit.
You should consider why the server is mostly white and many of the people of colour have left. You should consider why they all felt so comfortable dogpiling a brown man that they were previously friendly with, on your word alone. You should consider why they felt comfortable calling me racial slurs in your defense.
And congratulations, the anti-black tactics you spoke of worked, because I’m not setting foot in this fandom ever again.
Any writing I’ve done for this god forsaken fandom will be deleted, as well as any art.
After this post, my askbox will be open for anyone to call me whatever they want, as I don’t particularly care anymore. I’d rather they vent their racism and venom against my deaf ears rather than the many other POC struggling to fit into this fandom.
I genuinely hope all of you are happy. Both Charlie and their entourage.
The Ex-Mod decided to speak of their personal experience.
I invite everyone to read in his own words what happened, especially in regards to more of the racism that I was not personally aware of and could not cover in depth.
I do ask that if you are not POC, and these topics make you uncomfortable, please consider the reason for that and how the ex-mod, a POC, has struggled to be heard while many disregarded his words in the past.
I implore you, do not let POC fans be run out of fandoms. Listen to them and do not let white people make decisions on their behalf, or silence them for their own comfort. POC deserve to share the space without being attacked and harassed this way until they can't feel safe anymore.
I've had a lot to say on the subject that the In Sluts and Time Server is not a safe place to be. It turned out to be much more than a post or two could cover, so I've had to lay out a lot more of it this way.

A big thank you to those who contributed their personal stories and anecdotes. That was part of the reason I started this blog, to give people a platform and voice to speak up. I've received an outpouring of kindness and care towards others members, and people have been brave and vulnerable enough to share their experiences and insights.
It shows just how many people really do care about the community and the members who still don't feel they belong in the server.
I especially appreciate those who've sent in well wishes for those affected, insights to better illustrate the issues that persisted, and some of the positives that have come from this.
If others can hold their admins and mods accountable for their actions and decisions, then people can feel confident in advocating for better treatment or knowing what they should put up with.
If at least one person can feel closure or support from these anons and the words I've written, then this was more than worth it.
We won't go into detail on this as qe don't want to implicate anyone involved in this but the way that server talks about DID and kinhood is a festering wound of encouraging each other to be incredibly mentally ill or adopt medical terms as a fashionable label. They talk about kin/alter memories without source separation, medical conditions like blindness without actual physical symptoms; or even claim disability because ""Siffrin has it and they are Siffrin""— We wanted to talk to CircusFable about it but they joined in at some point— The server administrator, claiming to have a disorder along with people who spread bad faith and falsehood on a disorder that's ruining our lives, we left shortly after.
I'm so sorry for the pain they caused. I've heard about these events from others in the server, including others living with DID. It's incredibly upsetting to witness and to know the harm that has caused you all, and none of them see a problem with it.
I've also seen firsthand how terrible people can be about characters with disabilities and how they treat them as a quirk or adorable trait without being mindful of how a person might be affected by that representation.
that black person you're talking about is now too scared to post in the isat fandom (or anywhere at the moment) bc of what one of your "anonymous authors" did to them, does that not bother you in the slightest bit?
Considering that person left the server and Fable said they were reluctant to give them an invite back because they suspected that person was using the server as a form of self-harm, I'm not sure either of us knows all the details.
While I am sympathetic to them and what they are feeling, I also am acutely aware how that person and their friends made others wary of engaging in the server because they were scared of being dogpiled and ridiculed. I suspect Fable was uncomfortable and even intimidated by them as well, which also contributed to why the behaviors persisted and why more members disengaged.
No one deserves to have to walk on eggshells in their community, I agree, and I feel that extends to everyone, not just for the favored few. The ex mod shouldn't be getting death threats, and the only one openly named for their actions was Fable.
That person's identity is still hidden in the transcripts and screenshots. Only those in the server know who they are, unless they decide to openly name them in public. Considering most discord and tumblr names don't exactly match, that would have to be a very deliberate decision.
Maybe I shouldn't be bringing up really old stuff that happened before the stuff this server talked about. But I just remembered when Isluts was made, fable actually left a few weeks in. Ownership was given to an active member of the server so it wouldn't be deleted. Fable then decided to come back like. A month later or something and pretty much instantly started pressuring the new owner for admin back. The ex- new owner was allowed to stay as a mod I think, but I think they left shortly afterwards cuz the place lost the identity they were sticking around for. And isat hyperfixation wore off lol
I can empathize with losing the hyperfixation once the community loses its identity. This does give extra context I wasn't around for, and honestly sounds more plausible than not. Fable had mentioned, at least once since I joined, that they were thinking of giving up the server because they, too, were losing the interest in it.
Considering their lack of moderation and frequent mentions of fatigue, one would think this is beneficial for them. One could still be present without the responsibility and stress of having to manage things and make impulsive decisions that have lasting effects on people's perception of them.

So How Long Will You Stalk Them? You Didn't Answer That Question. This Will Only Cause More Problems For You As You Cling To Situations That Should Have Remained Private. No Person Is Perfect. You Have Your Own Part In Harassing And Targeting A Black Person In The Server, A Detail Of Which You Conveniently Leave Out.
Quite a few assumptions here to unpack, as you likely still didn't read the posts at all and have only taken someone else's word as to what is in them or what happened. I can guarantee you that your questions have already been answered.
I provided screenshots and evidence to back up everything, including disproving your claim that the ex-mod harassed someone, and showing that Fable privately recanted their mistake while they publicly did not. You claim it was all private matters, but it was actually much more serious and had repercussions in the community.
Fable assumed the ex-mod was trying to harass a black member out of the community and accused them of retaliating on behalf of their own friend by concocting fake complaints against that member.
In reality, the ex-mod had multiple people come to them because they were too intimidated and afraid of retaliation from Fable and their friends. Because of this, the ex-mod kept the members' identities in confidence, trying not to reveal any details that would immediately have them targeted if Fable decided to do so.
Because of this bias and the lack of info, Fable decided the complaints were illegitimate and demoted the ex-mod, whose resignation letter clearly points out Fable's racist and ableist treatment of that same black member you mentioned. Being uncomfortable to treat them like an adult in an 18+ server because they're black, or implying they are incapable of changing their ways and insulating them from criticism because they're autistic, or shifting the majority of blame to their hostile white friend is irresponsible behavior for a server admin. Fable did that member a disservice and caused them distress, just as their inaction and dismissal caused fear, distrust, and demoralization in their community.
So, as I already extensively wrote and documented, by Fable's own hand, the responsibility for moderating and taking action in the server was solely in Fable's hands. Having moderators who can only talk to people isn't really moderating. They are just the eyes and ears who can do nothing about the situation but report back to Fable.
And when the only one with power used poor judgment to handle conflict, the issues persisted. In fact, it made more issues than they ever realized, because once again, no one felt comfortable or safe enough to tell Fable the truth. Since people now can plainly read and see how Fable mishandles and lies about things, they can be aware of their failings and hold Fable accountable in the future.
So, to answer your prior question, what is the goal of these posts?
To warn members what kind of environment and authority they are dealing with. To point out the flaws without being pressured into silence. My words are not influenced by the threat of being dogpiled, deleted, harassed, ridiculed, belittled, dehumanized, or ostracized. I can give you the most honest answer, because I'm not afraid to say what needs to be said and what you need to hear.
If it gives voice to those who didn't have it before, or courage to those who wanted to leave, or even insight to those who want to be better and separate from such hostility, then I truly consider that a resounding success. Even reaching one person made this all worth it.
fable and the new mods have condemned the death threats and other horrific messages that were sent to the ex-mod and have asked for it to stop. not sure if anything will actually come of that, but i feel it prudent to point out that they were not affiliated with that particular incident.
I appreciate the confirmation. If anything, that's a step in the right direction. Perhaps acknowledging the hostility they foster or left unchecked in their server will bring about good change in the future.
Why Keep Airing This Out By Stalking Fable? Who Does This Help? How Is This Productive For You? What Does Your Goal Look Like, And When That Goal Is Reached Will You Continue To Stalk This Person For Crumbs To Add To Your Petty Hunt? Get Over It And Let This Go. Make Better Use Of Your Time.
I would engage more with people on this subject if they bothered to read the posts. As I see they don't bother to read all the evidence to get answers to their questions, I'll just summarize it once here.
If you think it's petty to warn current or new members about how Fable treats people, is negligent in handling important issues, dismissive of the harm they cause, and (inadvertently or intentionally) runs multiple POC from the community while claiming to care about racial issues, then I don't know what to tell you.
A good leader would've admitted what they did wrong. They wouldn't have lied about their ex-mod, encouraged the animosity in a server they are responsible for, or have so many people readily attacking someone because they believed the narrative they were told.
If you think it's petty to call out the unjust treatment and the people who intend to get away with it, then I think that's more a reflection on your own perception and lack of knowledge. Please do not belittle the harm a well-known name in the community has caused to people who trusted them.
These are more of the harassing messengers the ex-mod is receiving since the doc dropped this week.
These are just a taste of the hatred and hostility fostered in Circusfable's In Sluts and Time server. The doc explained more thoroughly, but this is exactly why people don't feel safe in the server. If you aren't popular, aren't liked, aren't favorable, then you get targeted. Nothing has proven that more than this.
Their messages are racist, wishing for their death or disappearance, demeaning and dehumanizing them because they feel it justified in calling out Fable's behavior and putting their space at risk for telling the truth. It's clear none of them bothered to read the doc for all the behaviors outlined in it. They've already made up their minds about who is "correct" or "right" in this narrative, and they didn't bother to read or reflect before sending these messages.
If you've ever considered being part of that server, I sincerely urge you to stay away. They will not treat you kindly there.
For those who don't know, this is the ex-mod who has been receiving threats and harassment from Circusfable's server after they quit. People assumed they quit and left due to being demoted, that it was solely because their feelings were hurt, but per their resignation letter, it was because of the hostility, racism, and favoritism that Fable failed to acknowledge or control, and then they didn't support the mods in handling it. This was just one such person harassing after the first post, assuming that the ex-mod was the author of this blog. Behavior like this was a major contributor to why I started the doc in the first place.

Honestly after leaving that server the only thing I have to say about it is that its a huge echo chamber. I was constantly told that my presence was enjoyed but the moment I ever opened my mouth I was either ignored or argued for my headcanons. ... Mostly ignored. It really does feel like you need to already have a presence in the fandom so people go "HOLY SHIT YOU!!!" when you join or you're just sorta. Sitting in the background. All of the people with the "cool" opinions are never argued against because they just sorta slam anyone with a new idea for the table.
I'm so sorry that happened to you, anon. I promise you aren't alone. I heard many people talk about similar experiences and witnessed a few in real time. If your idea isn't popular, then it dies on deaf ears. If you don't have the social weight or name online, you feel alone in a sea of people. Not included as more than a body.
I hope you're doing better now that you've left. Having your creavity and joy squashed like that is deeply demoralizing.
Personally? I left a while back because I was so appaled the owner of a server with ""slut"" in the name would slut-shame their friends for doing ""sexy"" cosplay in front of /everyone/. Demonic to think it went /that/ deep -_-
Oh, the multiple slut-shaming discussions in general. I'll admit, I don't know all the ins and outs of sexy cosplays online. I know they can be lucrative, and there is stigma for it. But it does feel hypocritical for someone running "In Sluts and Time" to make fun of IRL people for their own sexual expressions in the cosplay community. Odd for someone who keep insisting people need to "get comfortable with sex and kink."
