TRIGGER WARNING: mentions of cancer/chemo, R*x controversy, Qwel controversy, grooming and manipulation, mentions of suicidal ideation.

If you're in the Dandy's World fandom, you've probably heard about the current controversy surrounding Qwel.

A few days ago, I made a post sharing my thoughts on the situation. At the time, I felt that Adam's video was misleading, and while I believed Qwel should have removed R*x sooner, I thought she had apologized and that the situation was being brought up again without much reason.

Since then, more information has come out.

This morning, I read Joji’s document. The allegations described in it were honestly disturbing to read. According to Joji, Qwel allegedly mocked victims, pressured developers to stay on the team, underpaid developers, dismissed people's concerns, and continued supporting R*x. Joji also described being guilt-tripped into staying on the team during chemotherapy, being told to stop complaining about being doxxed, and having personal struggles laughed about behind their back. As a result to all of this stress WHILE fighting cancer, Joji was hospitalized multiple times and struggled with suicidal thoughts.

If these claims are accurate, I find them deeply upsetting. My heart goes out to everyone who was hurt by R*x or by the environment described in the document.

That being said, I am still confused about some parts of the situation. A lot of information seems contradictory, and there are many claims that either lack evidence or directly conflict with other claims. Some people say Qwel didn't know what R*x was doing and removed him once she found out. Others say she knew, but was manipulated herself. Others claim she knew everything, didn't care, and remained friends with him privately.

At this point, I don't feel confident enough to say which version is completely true. There are too many contradictions, too many interpretations, and too much misinformation being spread around.

As for my current stance, I am remaining neutral.

This does NOT mean I don't believe victims. I believe the victims who have come forward about their experiences. What I'm uncertain about are some of the disputed details regarding Qwel's knowledge, intentions, and actions.

For now, I will not be purchasing merchandise or cosmetics from Blushcrunch Studios. At the same time, I will not be spending my time constantly attacking or defending Qwel. Instead, I plan to step away from the discourse until more reliable information becomes available.

Dandy's World has been my comfort fandom for nearly two years, and I don't want to spend all my time surrounded by negativity and arguments while the full situation is still unclear. For now, I'd rather focus on Art Fight, my personal projects, and the things that make me happy.

If you want to learn more, please do genuine research. Do not listen to what your told from others, get information directly from documents and files made by victims.

We have stopped playing the game and left the blushcrunch server as soon as we saw it. We support only the victims. Cosmo is, however, an integral part of our identity, being fictionkin and all. We love him and other characters from the game very much, and are still fixated on the characters. Can't be helped tbh.

Basically, just a little PSA. Enjoying a piece of media made by bad people does not mean you are a bad person or support those bad people. Enjoying a piece of media is not the same as supporting the creator, unless you choose to continue giving them money (in this case, by playing their games). Remember it is not a moral failing to still like the media or franchise in question. 🫶
