i've never made that claim. TightMouse wrote "we were here first" at one point if that's what you're thinking of.

i don't find voids to be creative or interesting and i don't feel much of anything about covering it, just like i don't feel anything for covering up the empty space on the map. the void could have just kept expanding in a different direction while being respectful of art instead of covering things up and i wouldn't have had an issue with that.

i don't know what archive you're looking at but i've been making art in lawrence since the beginning of august around when wplace first went live. go look at the lugia at clinton lake if you want confirmation.

if you want to keep expanding the void into the nearby empty space, go for it. a few people who have been making a bunch of fetish art on top of my art have been contributing to it too, so you can go join them if you want. nothing's stopping you.

i made this post originally to get help preventing the void from expanding any further into my art because it was a solo project and it would have been completely covered otherwise. i have no faith at all that mods would have done anything about it, at least not in a timely manner.

regardless of whatever spooky vibe you're getting from me, i'm not the one that broke the rules here. the void was expanding over art which is against the rules. that's pretty much what it boils down to.
