Seeing how the mods and admins on Era are literally shitting on all users that were, in-fairness, trying to look out for them being taken advantage of, and then snapping back at them "But you were treating us like the bad guys moments ago, so why you care?" attitude and continuing to taunt them up until the recent pages, is beyond infuriating. Like, I've been really critical of the modding since how they not only pushed back against us trying to discuss ableism and accessibility, but also banning people who reported ableism on the board.
But not wanting to see people being taken advantage of and also being critical of how they handled everything can both co-exist in the same conversation. And yet, they even blew any possible good will with that, with how they chose to act in the announcement thread.
They're even linking and now asking people to donate to their paypal, ko-fi, and the like, if they want to see them paid instead of, you know, REASONABLY demanding being properly paid from the newer ownership and, arguably, Cerium.
If there was ANY possibility of me ever coming back, it's gone after how the Admin and Mods are just shitting on all users. They're also actively completely ignoring the exodus of users which, by the way, they caused, and continue to not really acknowledge, other than saying that "we were mean to them and called them cops" and crap. They literally made a community unsafe for minorities, the disabled, and among others and continue to do so by ignoring issues and antagonize users in that thread.
Beyond infuriating.
I'm just done.
