tired of the mods getting namedrops while we tiptoe around the actual problem: jade. it's jade. the mods can do absolutely nothing right in her eyes. she has spent the entire year complaining to her close cr and friends that she invited in, and then those people are the ones who carry her complaints forward to the mod team, or who repeat them in their plurks.

not to say people can't have their own criticisms or that the game is perfect, but we've all seen before how having little pockets of space for disgruntled venting can turn a few normal problems into a group of players who feel actively angry and persecuted.

jade continually gets rapped on the knuckles publicly by the mods (eg her plot submissions around wanda's powers, her event questions, her plot coin submissions). jade has actively removed mods and canonmates because she wanted to be able to vent about the game without them seeing it. she has grudges against multiple people brought up here. jade has also been bitter about nikolai because he wouldn't ship with her zoya, and complained she can't get traction with the npcs in this game the way he does. a whole lot of this thread feels like jade or people who have been lovebombed by jade into taking her constant discontent as the gospel truth.
