chained - untamed

          OKAY MISS PISSY PANTS, if you have an issue with me addressing my anger with mods not doing shit correctly, go ahead. Just know that because they couldn’t be arsed to properly mod a group, they lost 2 fated people and 2 WHOLE fated pairs.

           Its funny how you think I care what bullshit you have to sprout. Claire isn’t getting a pity party from me any day soon, because she knows what she signed up for, and she isn’t doing what she should be for her signing up for this role.

            You want my two cents? 

1) Claire was rude to people who asked for a hiatus. Sadly, I could not get screenshots, but me and another being saw it, and I sent in an ask about it. Regardless of whether or not she or another mod was the one who edited the hiatus responses, there was nothing said either publicly OR privately about how she dealt with it. She can’t handle being a mod, LET ALONE THREE MUSES AT ONE TIME.

2) “No one was saying anything other than “it’s stupid to complain over such a little thing” and that it was “childish” to complain.” TAYO IS THE ALL SEEING EYE, 2K15

I have to say that no, its not childish to complain about it, because the person who sent in the ask is triggered by Maf for reasons I cannot say, because they like to keep it on the down low.

They literally said “I don’t want to be a busybody by saying this, but…”

So yeah, I’m a little pissed off that someone dear to me tried to make the message as polite as they could and it was still twisted and turned to be a bigger deal than it actually is.

Not to mention people in there said, “A few select pricks are getting their way.” Amongst other things.

1. I saw the messages too. Were they rude? Absolutely. That could have been handled a lot better. Though she did realize her mistakes, and I don’t know what conversation went on with you two, but she did change them. I think she’s doing a damn good job at handling her muses and the mod blog all at once. I really really do. There are people who can’t even handle one muse, let alone four and being a mod. It’s gets tolling. Especially when this happens. You gotta let her breathe. 

2. It is childish to keep complaining. You want to know why? Because it’s not right to say “I don’t like it therefore, no one else can.” We get that it’s triggering. And we all said we would tag everything accordingly and try to make it as easy as possible. Though if we stopped EVERYTHING that triggered SOMEONE. There would be no group. It’s that simple. All we can do is try our best to make it easier. Though it isn’t right to completely take everything away. That IS childish. 

I’m pissed off that someone I thought was a friend to me is doing this. I’m pissed off that someone can sit here and say such awful fucking things about people that try so hard to keep things running smoothly. There was no need for this retaliation. There was no fucking need to say things like this about our mods, or say things like this about me, or Sylvia like that. And it’s not fair to Claire that you keep targeting her. 

I don’t know what your deal is, or anyone else’s who is unhappy here. No one is making you stay, and no one is forcing you to do something you aren’t comfortable with. 

          I wasn’t going to say anything at first but I have to say there’s no reason to keep quiet anymore.  the fact that the mods brought a mod discussion into a general chat is disgusting.  not only did they completely disregard that the anonymous ask was meant to be kept in confidence between the asker and the mods, but you proceeded to spend quite literally hours complaining about the anonymous requester having the audacity to say something.  either you misunderstood the ask, or you just completely blew everything they said out of proportion.  all they asked was that you kept the games off of the dashboard.  They didn’t say to stop playing them, They didn’t say it was wrong to play them. Claire completely took everything the ask said out of context.  

          As a mod, your job is to mediate and keep things running smoothly.  by leaving the group chat after causing a literal shit storm and saying ‘mods should keep out of it’ is literally doing the exact opposite of what a mod should do.  a good mod would’ve taken both sides into consideration; whoever decided to make a side blog did the most logical thing, even after you proceeded to scold them for doing it without a mods permission (Didn’t you say mods had no say about the games? Wow.)

          also I didn’t appreciate Claire’s comment in the mod post that said ‘mods don’t make the games’ considering you’re one of the biggest proponents for the cah/mafia games.  only recently did slaine start making then. Claire acted childish and only took her own feelings into consideration which is very unprofessional; especially when she said the asker was acting like a four year old for bringing up a valid point. Something I have proof of, since I am in the group chat for Maf Memers.  putting non-rp related things on the dashboard is obnoxious and clutters everything up and not everyone is interested in playing the games.  

          not only that, but Claire LEFT the group saying it was stressing you out.  you don’t have to be a mod!  no one is paying you!  if it stresses you out so much then stop modding!  there’s no point in doing something that stresses you out so much.

I would first like to point out that it was ME who was the first to bring games into DD. I was the FIRST PERSON to suggest an IC game of Cards Against Humanity. It was not Claire. It was not Slaine-mun. It was not any other mod or any other member. As far as I can remember, Claire started ONE IC game of CAH, and ONE IC game of Mafia. And that’s it. The mods never made the games. It was never run by the mods and no one ever asked for permission. The mods literally had no say in when/if games were created. And honestly, Claire is a player here too. It would have been 100% different had she posted on the main about the games she created. 

But she didn’t. 

Moving on. No one in the maf group chat knew who sent that ask. Absolutely no one. No one was saying anything other than “it’s stupid to complain over such a little thing” and that it was “childish” to complain. It that’s what you consider shit talking then….I’m not entirely sure what to think. 

Modding is stressful regardless. For a long time, it was just Claire and Melon and there’s a ton of people in this group?? It can get taxing on anyone. I know Claire was doing what she thought was best and sometimes you can’t just pretend to be happy and nice all the time. Being a mod does not mean you have to make everyone happy. Being a mod does not mean you have to be nice all the time. That’s the thing about it. The mods don’t owe us SHIT. They have to do what’s best for their group. They thought that was best. Doesn’t mean we have to be happy about it. It doesn’t mean we even have to pretend to be happy. 

Those of us in the Maf chat are ALLOWED to be pissed off about a select handful of people complaining that they weren’t included because we did all that we could to make sure that they were included! If they didn’t/couldn’t play, there’s absolutely nothing WE could have done. We can’t make them play. All we can do is put the invitation out there. 

There is no right way or wrong way to mod a group. And if you don’t like the way a mod is running their group, tell them in a respectful fucking manner. Because everyone deserves that. Call out posts aren’t necessary. They’re immature and they just make the matters worse. 

Our mods are doing a great fucking job especially with all of this shit happening. 

          OKAY MISS PISSY PANTS, if you have an issue with me addressing my anger with mods not doing shit correctly, go ahead. Just know that because they couldn’t be arsed to properly mod a group, they lost 2 fated people and 2 WHOLE fated pairs.

We do want this to be a family. And for many, it is. If people choose to leave, that’s fine and understandable, but please understand that there is two sides to every story and we hope to improve. If you have any concerns, please contact my skype at shotabuns and we’ll talk! 

          We did. Claire took the whole thing out of proportion and went into a NON-MOD group chat about it, and everyone started shit talking the asker because, again, Claire took it OUT OF CONTEXT. It should not have even been taken into a non-mod group because it is a mods job to address it seperately. At least Slaine mun was on the side of still playing, but jumped to make sure both parties were happy with a good solution. You, Claire, and many others only wanted what was good for YOU.

IF YOU CAN DROP CAH BECAUSE ONE PERSON SPEAKS FOR ALL MINORS, YOU CAN DROP MAF FOR MANY PEOPLE CALLING OUT ISSUES WITH IT!!!

“Small problems can turn into big problems if you try to fix it through rude means“

EXACTLY!!! Which is why you, the mods, should have been able to fix this without being rude. We were rude literally starting five minutes ago. Sorry, bro, you don’t get to be full of shit about everything and then twist is around on us. 

         There was nothing good about today. It was Rosedale in          sweltering, agonizing heat with loud cicadas all buzzing          in an irritatingly loud harmony all around. Rima could          feel sweat forming under her bangs and the beginning          trails of it sliding down her temples and under her shirt.          It was getting harder and harder to haul her grocery bags          up the dirt path because her palms were starting to sweat          as well.

         And then the local.

           When she opened her eyes, she saw a girl looking at her with what seemed to be a glare, which confused her. Was she doing something wrong to the girl? Did she know the girl already, and forget she did something to make her mad?

                                               She didn’t know.

                                               And she may never know.

Normally whenever Velour decided she wanted to have someone over, Flannel managed to scoot out of the house and drag Leon with him.  Unfortunately, he had some business to attend to at home so he had mostly been spending time upstairs trying to get work done.  Eventually his hunger got the best of him and he ended up wandering into the kitchen, only to find Velour’s friend digging through the fridge.

“Amazing genetics?”

“Well I have to agree, but technically little red isn’t truly the fruit of my loins.  I appreciate the compliment regardless.”  Flannel turned to the cabinets and flung one of them open to grab a bag of chips.  “What have you two been doing anyway?”  He popped open the bag and shuffled around for a bowl, dumping the snacks into it.

          Morgiana was utterly embarrassed at the situation she had gotten herself into, really. It was one thing to be awkward with your best friend’s father, but it was another to compliment their genetics without them even being genetically related.

                                 Wow.

                                 Talk about screw ups, huh.

          When Flannel asked about what they had been doing, she sighed, clenching her fists as she glared into nothingness, responding bitterly, “She has been beating me at Mario Kart nonstop, and I don’t like it one bit. I wanted to be the supreme.”

Eli gave her a nod and smile in return, maybe this whole time off thing wasn’t too bad after all. She did bump into a cute stranger– or well, was it acquaintance now? She wasn’t very good at the whole social thing.

As the blonde picked up a piece and took a bite, a small hum of approval left her lips. Comfort food was great. Comfort friend was great. Sure, it was no chocolate but she did enjoy food to a certain degree. Desserts had to be her favorites though.

She was curious though, how or why Morgiana had exactly came to the area or why she decided to approach her earlier. Eli was always trapped with the need for curiosity.

“So tell me, Morgiana, how exactly did you end up in the same location earlier?”

          Morgiana took a bite of her pizza tentatively, savoring the tender flavor on her tongue as pizza came into contact with taste buds, making a spectacular feeling in her mouth. She swallowed the bite slowly, dabbing at her face as she responded with a closed-eyed smile.

          “Well, I was searching for clothes that were cheap. For my siblings, because they’re going through growth-spurts recently, and they need new clothes, but we can’t afford a lot, so cheap ones would help, if only a little.”

                         She paused, thinking about how she would word the next sentence.

                         Hopefully she didn’t sound rude.
