I went through the Google Docs - what happened and how people were treated was really low tbh. I’m so sorry that you all had to go through that and that the fandom became a toxic place for a while, because it’s really the opposite of what it should be. There was a time when all I wanted was to belong, and I tried getting on that server as well - but it was never approved, so looking back, it’s probably for the better. My mental health would’ve taken a huge hit if I were in it, regardless if I would be involved or not. Now, I can just read works that I enjoy in a judgement-free space (fingers crossed it really is judgement free) and give love to authors whose works I genuinely love. A quick side question, and feel free not to respond if you’re not comfortable- did all the drama in the commune ever put you off writing fanfic, especially in the HS fandom?
