hello! we know you were probably expecting this message, but it’s one we send with heavy hearts. we’ve decided to give you your third and final strike, and as such, you’ll be removed from the roleplay. this was not an easy decision for us, nor how we wanted things to end, but we feel it’s necessary because of the toll the this situation has taken on the roleplay as a whole since thursday. this is not because you were bullied, and we promise we are taking action against that as well. this is not just to get rid of you, because we’ve appreciated everything you’ve put into rookies. this is because you choosing to publicly post the thread you did has gotten nearly everyone in rookies involved in this situation in one way or another, and has caused some of the most drama we’ve ever seen. we understand bullying drove you to this point, but you received multiple warnings before this where others might have received a strike because we wanted to keep you with us that much. the community as a whole wants us to do more to protect them, and we believe that starts here with your removal. it won’t end here, and we hope you can find peace knowing you’ve helped us become better, more proactive mods. we don’t expect you to forgive us for this decision, but we hope you find new happiness and fulfillment in your life, and we hope being out of rookies is healthier for you than staying in it in the end, too. we never wanted you to suffer so much here, and we’re sorry that you did.
honestly, you don’t have heavy hearts. if you actually cared about anyone in this rp, you would have taken the time to deal with nic and ani years ago. even you guys admit, you weren’t proactive and didn’t do enough. but you decided to blame me, because i wouldn’t take it. you kicked me, because i wouldn’t shut up and let people bully me or my friends. you allowed that behaviour to grow and you even excused it as “personality”, you can reason “ani is an asshole” but only on incidence of bullying. you dont even excuse nic’s behaviour, all you do is coddle her and her mental issues tbh.
she can write a whole letter, calling everyone out and what did you do?
gave her what she wanted.
when ani threatens not to debut her muse if she’s not leader, what do you do?
give her the leadership position despite knowing she has a history of intimidation and causing discord.
i was never the source of the rumour that the mods do nothing. that was already in place when i arrived. there were already numerous people who said not to bother, just ignore it, that it isn’t worth it.
it isn’t worth being degraded as a person, it isn’t worth being labelled as the villain and the toxic one, and to have the mods throw me under the bus when it’s not even a secret that ani and nic are the two most manipulative people here. just because you mods are scared. you’ve admitted it to me, you’ve admitted it to my friends. you don’t even want to go tell them and scold them, you tell my friends to go do it bc they’re not “talking” to you right now. how can you call yourself mods?
i’m not a warning not to cause drama. i’m a warning to take the bullying and to shut up about it, or you’ll be kicked. that’s what the mods have made me into. as if i want to be some bullshit martyr. you let people lie for five years, and think its a funny joke. you let them bully you and other muns, you let them destroy and scare people off. YOU let them. and you kicked me, for not wanting to. you wanted to hide this was going on, pretend it wasn’t happening, because it’s easier for you to pretend rookies is a “welcoming” community.
it’s not. it’s never been. it was tolerable.
it’s the people like me, who made this a welcoming community, who helped out anyone, who offered to plot with everyone, who went out of their way when it looked like someone was struggling. and you leave us to suffer at the hands of two bullies. if you’d done your job before, this wouldn’t have been how it went – but you all failed. you can carry that around. because i’m not carrying around that i was some bad guy here. i wasn’t.
no matter how many times you tried to tell me i was, especially at the end.
