My representative character is one that i received when i received the initial invitation, kazuha from le sserafim. she is me i am she. i love the fimmies your honour.

i’d like to preface by saying that individual situations that have taken place on here, have also directly been solved— clearly, there are very few individuals who are unaware of this. i do believe that speaking up is something everyone should do if there’s a serious issue that needs to be discussed, though curating something into more than what it truly was originally does not— nor will ever— sit right with me.

and now, all of this has been insanely blown out of proportion.

if you feel the need to drag all of katsblr into something, i’m not sure why victim cards are being played. you cannot come onto a huge platform, have a decent following, and expect nobody to respond to your comments in the manner they have been.

to counter every single reply back without the acknowledgement of your own actions tells me— and a lot of others— where you stand with maturity. accountability is what was needed and you seem to not recogize you’re in the wrong here— as harsh as you may think it sounds— you aren’t doing katsblr a favour.

i find it hard to believe that the entirety of katsblr needed to be targetted into a post that clearly regarded a situation that you lacked inclusion in majorly— like at all— and so i think it’s fair, and just, for others to comment back as it was— indeed— a threat.

there seems to have been a clear line crossed, and you need to understand that it is disrespectful to blame a whole community based on a recent situation that had nothing to do with you.

offering commentary on issues that do not involve you is not approaching anything in a good way. if you didnt want things to get out of hand, or get as big as they already have, the post should’ve never left from your drafts— and that’s the honest truth.

i also think speaking out about situations that don’t involve you takes away from the people who were actively involved and their own statements.

it’s gone beyond way more and at this point, what is planned to be released seems absolutely unnecessary. unfortunately, something made to bring a community together seems to only be tearing it apart. and i don’t agree with the way things are being done, nor with what you have chosen to do.

i cannot fall in line with your persepctvie as personally, there’s nothing this intense that needs to be addressed by someone who has made it very clear that they are underage— a minor— unless it directly has something to do with them.

so please, do think twice about releasing something extremely heavy and unnecessarily disrespectful, as it doesn’t lead to anything beneficial on your end— from what we all have clearly seen.

if you’re going to take anything from this, i hope it’s a lesson learned and that we need to think twice before overreaching and overexterting to address a whole community rather than the initial situation that seemed to spark it all— which again, you had no involvement in.

i wasn’t going to say anything but the responses i’ve seen did not sit well with me at all, take care, and much love.

i need to make it very clear that the people who are making statements rn do not make statements often. we only do when it's serious and right now, boundaries are being crossed, accusations are being thrown around casually, and none of us feel okay about it. you can have your opinion but there's a time and place to share it and WE are also entitled to our own opinions as well.

I feel like I haven’t really addressed these serious topics that’s happened all over the Big Blr of KATSEYE, and I apologize for doing so. This is my message to most events that’s happened to this community to today because…let’s be real; there is a lot to unpack, unfortunately.

I wanna start this message off by addressing the Jorlando situation, especially with former admins Gecko and Eyeball. I myself have heard from three people who knew them the closest, Von, Eli, and Dak, and recently heard BC’s public announcement on the two. As we should all know, the two admins of JF have been publicly noticed as minors. Now, this was a huge problem around the community because, for one; they were minors talking to MDNI blogs. They crossed a boundary that was set for almost every KATSEYE blog made. Not to mention, they were talking sexually to adults and about idols and the two men. Again, as minors. This isn’t ideal for their state of mind as they are still children. This type of situation needs to be handled “professionally.” The norm for teens to talk sexually about and to adults shouldn’t be normalized at all. It ruins them horribly. Now, I do want to mention the things that Gecko and Eyeball have done to themselves because of the situation that they had put themselves in. They did this to themselves. I hate to say it, but it is the truth and it is their consequences.

To add on, they are not just the only victims, but the people they had lied to. The adults that thought they were of age–the adults that they spoke sexually to. The people that they hurt have been torn by the situation. It’s made them sick for days. For me, I still feel sick about the situation. They lied under a facade and come back to pretend everything is okay. Even after countless apologises, I want to say that they should not connect with Katsblr or even try to indulge into their little community of what JorlandoForever once was. I do not want any of you guys to encourage this behaviour as well–even if the two have apologized for their actions. This is not good for them or for others on the app. As much as JF was fun, it has to come to an end for their own well beings and yours as well.

Secondly, the FriendshipGames Tumblr post–specifically this one. Under the comments, Riri, @riris-heart, had asked if this was “too much” to which the “host” of this account replied with “no” (read the paragraph sent if wanted for more information). First and foremost, I want to address the comment they left: “..But there are far too many suicidal people, and far too many people having experienced real life issues as a direct result of this Fandom incompetence.”

Addressing this, yes; there have been moments where suicide has been a topic for most people of the Katsblr community. Although, I hate to say this, but you cannot save everyone. As much as you want to, you can’t. Almost nothing can change a suicidal person’s mind if they plan to follow through with this self-destruction. Now, I’ve been in situations where I’ve almost lost and did lose a few friends due to this situation. It is luck that saves them, not a long paragraph that addresses this situation. I understand that you want to help, but some people do not want help at all, and you need to accept that. It took me a while to accept the truth, but I knew I needed to.

People will end up leaving and you need to learn to accept these things, even if it is hard to. It is difficult to deal with the loss of someone close to you or someone you knew for months, personally or not, but know that they wouldn’t have wanted you to think it was because of you. As mentioned, authors and people of the Katsblr community have their own lives and own problems. It will never be your fault that they are gone. It sucks to accept death, I know it is, but it’s something that you cannot avoid forever.

To the host of FriendshipGames, I deeply appreciate your concern for everyone and coming out with this announcement, but I fear that this long plethora of nothing will lead into a bigger problem than it already is. There is no need to have someone who wasn’t as deeply involved as others to involve themselves in this.

To address other ongoing issues, if you don’t like a preference that the author writes, you have a finger to scroll past it and a finger to click “not interested in.” There is no need to bash what an author writes just because you don’t like it. Your opinion does not threaten them; it is only you who is threatened by what they, indirectly, do to you.

And, just stop lying about your age, guys. You’re affecting yourself more and more the more you cry wolf for others to hear. It’s doing more harm to you than you would think. Respect and follow boundaries made–that is the best you can do as a former apology. And to anyone who fell under their lies; it is not your fault. You did not know. Do not blame yourselves for their actions afterhand and what they plan to do next. They did that to themselves.

For the most part, as a writer from Katsblr summer of ‘25, I’ve watched this community thrive and fall. The amount of authors leaving due to these problems and the amount of hate that many get is absurd. As much as I would love it to stop, I know there will be no end to it. Hate lives, and I can’t ignore that. As a community, I ask to stay strong together and stick up for one another. Don’t be afraid to have your own voice. Your hot take might be someone else’s agreement! Then again, situations like these won’t go away, so I ask everyone in the community of KATSEYE to not let your guard down.

You’re worth more than those hate anons. You deserve to rest. You’re not obligated to follow through with all of your requests. You’re allowed to take breaks. You’re allowed to be human. Don’t let yourself forget that behind your Tumblr account is a person who wants to have fun. A creative, lovely, amazing person who has this spark to them; even if you don’t think you do, you have one. You just need to find it yourself to understand that.

To everyone who actually made it to the end, I appreciate your patience reading this long message. I’m usually scared to speak up about these situations as I’m afraid if I say something, it’ll come out wrong. I want everyone to know that your voice deserves to be heard. Speak out about something that made you uncomfortable. Confront someone about something that you know is bad. You don’t have a voice to just stay silent.

To actually end this message, I hope everyone can do something out of this. Whether it is something small or big–as long as it is something. I’m not demanding you to–only if you want. But, I do need everyone to care for themselves. Eat something good and drink water. Get a good night's rest or take a nap that you’ve been needing. Take breaks from school, writing, or work, and give yourself time. Watch your favourite movie or show again. Listen to that song on repeat for a thousand times–do something that makes you happy. Only you–not someone else. I know you can do it.

Saying more, I do want to add that I, and other people alike, make sure that I have my own life outside of Tumblr. My life does not revolve around this app or the KATSEYE fandom. Someone stated that having friends outside of Katsblr felt like a breath of fresh air—and it does. As someone who has a few friends not associated around the KATSEYE community and Katsblr, I’m reminded that I don’t always have to engage in something that isn’t as relevant to me.

“Like I know not everyone would be able to go out to like a park or a beach or even outside home be it for strict parents, societal pressures or, in the case of the recent issues; being a child, but if you're in tumblr you can be in better places within it, don't fan the flames of hell and then complain about your scars and burns. You might think you don't have a choice or an option, and when you feel that I want you to put your phone down, drink some water and walk around the house or your room a bit. "What's stopping me from being better?" The answer should be nothing, if there is an answer, work to resolve it, ask for help, or just post it out and someone will help. That's what humans are afteral, humane,” one had said—stating their view on this topic.

You know when your limit is to stop—you don’t always have to stay just because a few people ask. Focus on what makes you happy and better.

I love this community with all my heart, and I love the journey that I’ve made to find the most amazing people ever. The people that understand, make me laugh, and love. I’m thankful for all of the friends I’ve made; you all mean so much to me than you could ever imagine. And to those who have been gone for months, you never leave my mind. You’ve made an impact on the community itself.

I hope that the Katsblr summer of ‘26 can be something better to make up for the past few months. I want everyone to be able to feel the sort of love that was once here before and can be here once again.

To actually end this message, never forget what the world lives in and where I stand. Fuck ICE, fuck Trump. Stand with the people of Palestine and the people of Ukraine and the people of Iran. No one is illegal on stolen land.

Love you lots,

this really really needed to be addressed. while i will admit the situation with manon has been a large part of the reason i have not yet come back to writing on katzblr, these situations have solidified my stance. i will forever be an ot6 stan so to see how she has been treated within the group has been extremely upsetting and understandably, took away motivation to write for katseye from me and so many other writers.

whilst i did not interact with jorlandoforever, i am part of the server they entered and where they lied about their age. i saw how torn people were by the fact that they had unknowingly interacted with minors in such a way. this isn't a matter of simply making a mistake and apologising for it. real people had real boundaries crossed which created real harm. it is not a situation that can be swept under the rug. real harm = real consequences. they made comments of a violent nature that made a number of us uncomfortable but none of us ever wanted to harass the two who were part of the server and i'm sure none of us ever did. because we knew the two were young and no matter how much damage they caused, no one deserves to receive that kind of hate. we've been on the receiving end of harmful messages and i don't think anyone was willing to send them, let alone to people we now knew to be minors.

in regards to the friendshipgames, i appreciate the sentiment, but as ven said, there is only so much we can do. and respectfully, no one has any idea what is happening outside of the tumblr dashboard. we don't only interact with each other through posts, reblogs, and asks. we talk to each other individually as well. and if there is an issue, such as suicidal ideation, that is something that so many of us, including myself, choose to address outside of the spotlight. because someone's mental health should not be aired in front of everyone, especially given the topic's sensitivity.

and in regards to the anon hate. it's bad. it's been bad for as long/longer than i've been on katzblr. i've received quite a bit of it myself and have even received hate about other writers on my own blog. i would never give these people the recognition they clearly wished to see because quite frankly, if you have the time to be sending that kind of hate, you have the time to get a job or do something useful and productive with your time that doesn't include going out of your way to harm other people.
