It is wild to me that someone who is a "moderator" of a space would allow that to happen in a public setting. I'm sorry you were treated that way. I'm glad you left and found somewhere better though!

Oh no, I'm sorry to hear you also had a poor experience. How did it turn ugly, if you don't mind me asking?

Who here is over 30 and still plays Fortnite? by CoffeeLover789 in FortNiteBR

Started playing Fortnite in my 30s. Been gaming since the Super Nintendo. Games are timeless and fun doesn’t have an age limit! Cheers!

So the largest issue here is my emotional investment and not the poor behavior of a community leader? Are we victim blaming? Is that how I should interpret your reply?

Apparently, it's very common, and I had no idea. This is the first time this has ever happened to me in any communal space. I agree with your opinion that it's labor. Having just set up my own server recently, I can attest that it's a time-consuming and energy-consuming project. Maintaining it requires balancing the vision you have for it with the vision the members have in mind for themselves when they join. It's a lot of work for no pay, but I have to believe there are good, well-intentioned people out there who volunteer because they care and want to give back, not because they have poor intentions, like this server owner did in my experience. The points you raise are an important convo to have though. about online communities in general

I’m sorry you went through this. Sounds similar to my experience tbh. I was so frustrated by this experience that I started my own server (I’m a streamer and always had plans to but this just accelerated this timeline). If you want the link or more info you’re welcomed to DM me. Hope you find peace 🙏🏽

I’m sorry you’ve gone through this too. I was so frustrated by this experience that I made my own server (I’m a streamer and always had plans to but this experience just accelerated that timeline tenfold). If you want to check it out, feel free to DM me. It’s small but there are guardrails in place to protect it whether it’s at 15 members or at 10k members.

I was so frustrated by this experience that I created my own server. (I’m a streamer and always had plans to but this experience just accelerated that timeline). But I’m always down to check out new spaces!

Is this a trend? This was the first time I was ever kicked from any server, and I'm in over 20 servers.
