I donât really understand the âclout chasingâ angle that so many Chillcourse members are pushing on us. First of all, you can just dislike what people are doing and feel the need to point it out without wanting anything. Itâs possible to try and do something to help others without personal gain. Just because you might only care about people when it helps you doesnât mean everyone else is like that.
Plus, if any of us really wanted clout, we could just go to the almost 150 followers on our main, or nearly 200 followers on one of our side blogs, or over 300 on another, or nearly 100 followers on one of our discourse blog, or over 100 on one of our incorrect quotes blog.
Incase you didnât get the point, we donât need clout and we donât want clout. And even if we were, for some reason, clout starved, this isnât how we would get it. The majority of the people who know that the server or server members exist are pro-Dirk and pro-Chillcourse. The only thing that we could get in mass from doing this is hate asks and anons.
And I know that some of you might say that weâre expecting attention or acceptance from tucutes, but I doubt thatâs gonna happen. You know why? Because weâre transmeds. Every mod at this blog is a transmed and thatâs part of why it pisses us off so much that the main server and one of the most well known Tumblr transmeds are not a good place or a good person.
Weâre getting nothing out of this but possibly helping keep others from going into the same toxic environment that some of us were in with that server. There is nothing else that we want or could possibly gain from doing this.
Stop pushing off legitimate criticism with accusing us of clout chasing. Because even if we were, weâre still making good points. We still have proof that the server is not a good place and a number of members and/or mods arenât great people. Thatâs not cancelled out by make believe clout chasing, despite what some of you think.
Come up with real arguments if youâre genuinely the good guys or just admit that you canât defend yourselves against any of this.
