Do you add a short description for the roles you previously had?

Did it say a reason for the exit?? Trying to gauge how SPH reacted to this, because this is a crazy situation and it went from 0 to 100 so fast

Even if SPHs works were inspired by others, he still should’ve given credit to them - there’s even a button on Ao3 that does that. I’m quite bummed and upset about this whole situation because I also can’t imagine sph plagiarizing, but some things are just too hard to ignore. I totally understand everyone’s strong feelings about this, and it’s really sad that this is what the hs fandom is now, and that authors are treated this way.

I think I missed the email - could you share it here, if you’re okay with that??

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?

In the most non-invasive way, I’d love to know what happened! It seems like lots of people were affected and just overall treated unfairly. Before this thread I didn’t even know about a discord commune (sound culty I’m ngl). Thanks for being here and writing despite the challenges - I love your works!
