CASE ONE: Ashley Nichols and Michael Kovach

Situation 1: Around 7 years ago, Michael and Ashley were doing a game stream, when they saw a username that sounded like a racial slur. They thought it would be funny to put it in an in-game shirt as a joke. Right now, they apologized, but people aren't buying it.

My opinion: I'm on the neutral side here, sure, what they did was bad. It wasn't right. Of course people would get offended. But the VAs apologized and swore to be better people. Not only that, the stream was almost 7 years ago which disturbs me the most. Why are you mad about it now, instead of before? That doesn't make sense. Again, it's understandable people got offended, but I just feel like, with the due date and the timing, it feels like it was to ruin TADC's reputation with its already bad state.

CASE TWO, THREE, AND FOUR: Amanda Hufford and Marissa Lenti (Edited after some extensive research)

Situation 2: Amanda (and possibly Marissa) was getting cancelled for shipping RibBun (Gangle x Jax) as it was "Abuser x victim", a darkshipping trope

My opinion: This one. I'm fully on the VAs side for this situation, not because of Amanda being there, but because the reason is so lame, it's not even up for debate, yet here we are. Let me clear things up for shipping. Darkships are ok, just not Minor x Adult. Also, Jax x Gangle is NOT ABUSER X VICTIM. It is obviously bully x nerd, which is a normal shipping trope. Marissa ships it, thinking it's cute, but Amanda only respects it. Not only that, it's THEIR opinion.

Extra: So, someone told me it IS Abuser x Victim, because of how Jax takes out his anger on others and hurts others as a coping mechanism. But, if he hurts everyone, doesn't that mean all ships with Jax are somewhat Abuser x Victim? (Excluding Kinger) He literally threw Pomni from his back, and still FunnyBunny is fine? Ragatha and Jax are already in boiling hot water, to the point it can't make even a stable friendship, no matter how hard Ragatha tries, because Jax pushes everyone away, and Bunnydoll is still fine? He's literally enemies with Zooble and some Jax x Zooble fans say "Oh, but it's enemies to lovers". If you are gonna be a hypocrite and cancel RibBun, have some shame. Not only that, I believe Gooseworx said all ships are canon to prevent this exact situation.

Situation 3: Amanda and Marissa were friends with BlackGryph0n, who was an accused groomer and possible sex offender

My opinion: This isn't- Oh my God. That is absolute BULLSHIT. Gryph didn't groom his wife, and even his wife said it himself, but that maybe just be me. Now, I'm not too keen about this, but Amanda and Marissa had already blocked him.

My opinion (rewritten) : I made a severe lack of judgement here. I should've researched before making this, but now I know. But we still can't blame Amanda and Marissa. They didn't know, I mean, not a lot of people know about what BlackGryph0n did. How could you expect someone to know every single internet drama? Again, I'm still not too keen on this. But Amanda and Marissa reassured us that they blocked and reported him

Situation 4 (rewritten) : Sean had pedophile allegations, other than the minor case (in which where he was proven innocent), called minor/child characters attractive.

My opinion (Rewritten): After some more digging, I feel like Sean is the only one who deserves to be somewhat cancelled. I mean, he called fictional children cute, and as disgusted as I feel, I'm still glad he didn't act upon it. He should still at least get some help and hopefully not act upon it.

FINAL CASE: Gooseworx

Situation 5 (Added details): Gooseworx makes a joke about supporting incest and from what I heard, she made a racist joke as well in stream about it?

My opinion (Extra details): That's an old Twitter post, and was part of Gooseworx's humor (from what I heard) This was wrong, but Gooseworx most likely doesn't support incest, and only said that for fun. As for the racist part umm... I really do not have a clear view about it, however, as someone once told me "𝙰 𝚛𝚊𝚌𝚒𝚜𝚝 𝚓𝚘𝚔𝚎 𝚒𝚜 𝚜𝚝𝚒𝚕𝚕 𝚛𝚊𝚌𝚒𝚜𝚝"

A list of the VAs and do they deserve to be cancelled?:

Ashley Nichols: No.

Michael Kovach: No.

Amanda Hufford: No

Marissa Lenti: no.

Sean Chiplock: At least can we give him some restrictions? Or maybe just cancel half of his privileges.
