Okay but can we have a civilized conservation about this rather than resulting to irresponsible measures?
I'm honestly tired of being afraid to respond to topics like these because I always get the impression that people might hold a grudge against me for as long as I live just because of my opinion. I'm tired of seeing people get put down for genuinely trying to make this game a better place and finding ways to improve the game as well as enhance everyone's experience. I'm tired of seeing GOOD PEOPLE get punished for doing something that's right, which is standing up for the community and facing against these relevant problems when no one else would.
Censorship is a real issue on this game and it's really disappointing that it hasn't been talked about often. Most conversations that are brought up in regards to censorship get brushed off by the higher-ups from what I've seen. Heck, I'm not even sure if any action was taken to reduce to amount of censorship. At this point, we can't even open up and voice our own opinions because we'll end up in a bad spot. Even if we say it politely.
We're just talking to a brick wall.
Everything we say or do that relates to bringing up alarming and important issues get shot down.
It is severely disappointing.
I don't understand why Spirit's topic was deleted when it obviously benefitted a large amount of individuals who needed it. He was helping the community by sharing the hotlines and showing that he cares about everyone's mental health. The least you could do was edit it to your liking and pin it instead of scrapping his topic and recreating your own.
It's also quite upsetting that Birdie's role in former MOTS was used against her.
These kind of conversations deserve to be brought into light. I don't see why keeping them under the dirt for so long would be a better alternative. Imo, it'll only make the situation worse. There are wounds deep in the FH community that need to be tended to instead of ignored.

Why is this even happening? What's the point? Is this all really worth it? To keep coming back here and stirring up things that have been long gone for god knows how long? You think this is going to fix anything at all?
