Feedbackers: Thank you, again. :)
Prompters: This Round is now closed. A new Round will open within a few hours of the UTC stamp on this comment on Monday, September 12th. Please hold on to your ideas and post them in the new Round when it opens.
I don't know why you're outright ignoring me. It's fine if you dislike me, but like it or not, we run a community together, and we need to have communication going to keep this place on its feet. I'd appreciate it if you would email me so we can go over plans for the community's operation. If you're trying to run me off modship, it's not going to work. I can't think of another reason why several weeks of emails have gone unanswered. This is getting ridiculous.
I have not had an e-mail from you since you changed your screenname. I STILL have not had any e-mails from you! There's no 'proof' of anything other than I HAVE NOT HAD ANY E-MAILS FROM YOU. You have hardly been online and when you have your chatname has given me a 'unavailable' message.
I have e-mailed, PMed, and tried not to disturb your RL commitments (because I know you are busy). So what the hell is this about?
First off, my screen-name change won't do a thing. I linked my old screen-name to my new one, so my account, any links, any PMs, and any settings are all exactly the same.
Second, we had a conversation on my old email (starshipbadass) during which I added you as a chat buddy to my new email (stardustcities) and we figured out how to make the chat work. On 26 August, you jumped online and IM'd me a few times while I was making dinner, then vanished again, so I fail to see how you've been given error messages -- you did manage to send me messages on the 26th
( ... )
oh you guys, this is no way to run a comm. you know theres PMs on lj? do you guys have each others twitter? are you using hotmail? coz that shit tends to eat your emails if youre not watching closely.
i wonder if you have IP logging. going anon, just in case.
and i recommend you delete this entire thread as soon as you can. hell will break loose if people realise the mods arent watching.
We've both been using Gmail ever since I came onboard. It's worked pretty well. (I hear you about Hotmail; I had one for about a month and then quit out of frustration.)
I'm not quite sure what you mean by the mods "not watching," but I can assure you that I keep a constant eye on things, and I know oakenshields13 tracks everything.
cool, this anon is assured. i just figured people would assume that if you cant discuss/agree on things with each other then things wont get done as efficiently as they should be (as things this busy can get out of hand real fast)
but if you both have an eye out then thats cool. id hate for the place to go down, its my favourite place for the fandom.
Don't worry -- things are still running very smoothly, because oakenshields13 and I previously set up certain things we would each be handling. The reason I made the public comment is so I would definitely get a response, because I don't want a lack of communication to hurt the community.
I'm really glad to hear that you like this place. :3 There's still a definite mod presence here, and the comm won't be going down. <3
That is true. I did send you those e-mails, but I have received nothing back from you. There is obviously a fault with gmail. I have checked my spam folder and there is nothing from you in there, or in a search of my inbox, from the last 3 weeks.
But that does not resolve the fact you that are claiming I am deliberately avoiding you and dislike you - and this is why I asked if you are crazy - IN PUBLIC when you could LJ PM any of my accounts and get hold of me through Twitter and Tumblr. You have everything but my home phone number and cell, stardustcities. I am not avoiding you, and I certainly do not know where you got this idea that I do not like you from, but all I see right now is YOU trying to create drama where there is none, and blaming me for it
( ... )
The only reason I did this in public was because I knew it was the only thing that would get a response from you. I don't know how that many emails can just not go through.
I love being here. I love working on the meme. I have never "done this" to anyone else, because I've never had this issue with anyone else. As for falling back on my own opinion, I remember numerous times when I emailed you going, "Is this all right? Am I doing this right? What should I do?" The only times that I've spoken up against something you did is when you did something that you clearly shouldn't have done. re: "trolling" and expecting everyone to know something without a mod announcement.
I don't have a lot of RL stuff. I told you several times that I'm actually pretty free nowadays. I don't know where this self-sacrificing "but I'm covering for you" attitude is coming from. I appreciate that you're apparently trying to take weight off my shoulders, and I would do the same for you, but it's not necessary, and I could in fact take on a lot more
( ... )
No offense meant here because you seem like a chill person and a good mod, but surely you saw the wank that happened here at the start of the community and oakenshields13's horrible behavior and attitude. So the way she's acting now shouldn't be surprising to you.
I gave you 24 hours to calm down. I has not worked.
What I am trying to tell you is it is NOT JUST E-MAILS. Whenever I see you on gchat, which has not been a lot recently, your username goes offline or I get an unavailable message. I can't get through to you on gmail or gchat and you have not gone through LJ PM, twitter or tumblr.
tl;dr Pick communication back up with me and we will carry on running the comm.There goes the benefit of the doubt - nice try at blackmail. I am communicating. You. Are. Not. Answering. Now is all this because I started the last two Rounds to give you a break, and you have decided to perceive it as something else? You are the only person who is benefitting from this situation. I am not. I can only lose by not communicating with you. But if you do not communicate with me, and blame me for it, you can drag up and make up whatever you feel like, and play the victim. That is exactly what is happening now. You are creating drama, you have been for three days at the very least
( ... )
Actually, I've been calm the whole time. I'm not upset, or angry, or freaking out. I just wanted to know what was going on. I'm not sure why you don't think I'm calm -- I haven't done anything since my last comment.
I'm not going to restart the issue about chat. I was on gtalk constantly. I would like to know why, if you weren't receiving any communication whatsoever from me, as you said you weren't, why you didn't PM or email me to ask what was going on

I have not had an e-mail or PM from you in weeks. And I do not dislike anyone!
What are you doing?
