i think as adults it’s our responsibility to be nice to kids and treat them with the respect we wish we got at that age and im not kidding or exaggerating in the least
no idea whats happening with artfight (kind of? i know a bit but… its given me a headache so im ignoring it) but i am just
going to go back to animating this revenge
something is up with artfight?
tl;dr staff mass quit bc they were not paid
what the fuck?
QUICK CORRECTION-
the mods are volunteers, they weren’t paid nor did they ask for pay
what they’re upset about is that Takaia is pocketing all the donation money rather than using it to update and improve the site, plus a lack of communication on getting things done yet refusing to let more mods/staff pitch in, so they’re quitting as protest.
the moderators want the event to keep going for the sake of the participants, but ArtFight’s future is dubious unless Takaia cleans up their act.
This does not mean to not continue using the site
Put stress on the servers, continue to report suspicious behavior. We need to make it clear that they need moderation teams and to treat them better with respect. We need to make it clear that the servers need to be better and paid for else the site will go down with the sheer number of users.
Do not donate until the owner stops taking money
Do not put direct pressure on their mod team, if you want to ask questions specify that it should be answered by the admin team.
I wish the leaving mods the best, I hope the remaining team members the best. ( Except for the owner. )
This was not the only piece of information that was brought up but was the largest. This comment by ELGURITCH on Toyhouse goes into depth on the suspicious actions of Takaia made in September of last year. The forum post it was commented on goes into depth with the other things.
I have my own god awful experiences with the admin team. I’m glad people are coming out about the groomers that were reported on the site. I hope people will be finally safe and well.
I’m really glad I got the opportunity to make the Punk and Goth gals I’d imagined when the lines first came out. I love midnight dance Jade it’s just I feel like Jade would have gone all out instead of adding some blue streaks to her hair.
Vox named after Vox Militia is styled London + Caribbean 80s with her hair bleached and loud but the big afro to take up space, she’s enjoys ska along with punk and added a nod to 90s punk babydoll. I hope to make her some stainless steel belts and spike accessories.
Galaxy’s outfit is temporary until i can find the right cream and white or deep red sweet gosurori pieces to make her look like a chantilly covered cake / victorian vampire (tough of red around the eyes), probably ringlets or braided bun to match.
