even if it were the current mod team who allowed art to be a helper mod, it might have just been because no one warned them not to. all three are covid era joiners of dwrp (not the site in general, but specifically public panfandom dwrp, before someone reminds me kit was in alternity with denise again, yes, they've all been around dw but that doesn't mean shit, we aren't the only users or the only rpers here) and art was remarkably mild for the first year of folkmore being open with more of their dramatics being pre-pandemic. there's no central database of "these are the bad people to always ban immediately and never give another chance as they don't change" that new mods are pointed to. no one newer looks at anon comms, don't even delude yourselves into thinking wg/rpa are resources for that kind of info, half the shit on here is made up in the moment and lacks credibility. which is fine because everyone knows wg has no credibility, but be real about it.

my point is we can only jokingly blame mods for not being psychic about problem players, not seriously expect it.

this was probably way too constructive.

you're deluding yourself if you think the head mods of fm don't live on wg. epi and kit are easily the most obvious. every time.

ehhhh i assume no mods of any games go here, because it's way easier on their sanity not to. all i really know about these mods besides the game is that they have actual careers so they likely have better things to do than live on anon comms. but less about them in particular, you walked into MY internet pet peeve: if you've decided you recognize someone because of ~*~ tYpInG StYlE ~*~ you most likely don't. every comment here looks the same. it's a mystery what country someone is posting from unless you can see IPs, you're not IDing individuals. and if a reply looks like a total pastiche of someone in particular or is absurdly defensive it's more likely bait.

obviously i could be wrong since i don't know any better than you do. but we'll never know.

everything you wrote is more or less correct, except for the extremely laughable "no mods go here"

ok tbf i assumed this for mods' sanity because wg is 99.9% negative about everything. if they want to be insane and look here they are welcome to do so. it's just another thing in a thankless job.

as a former mod (who went here then too), modding is something you have to enjoy for your own sake tbh. no mod whose outlook on it is "thankless job" is going to last more than a few months. if your outlook is more like "this is our sandbox that we were going to play in anyway, but we have this number of spots open for other people" you can come here and be unaffected

the only exception imo would be something like a gonsai persistent concern trolling situation, but that's one of the good things about attitudes changing in recent years regarding player entitlement

yeah, that's why i am glad for fm they just gave art the boot - if art was bothering players and the mods, why should they have to continue to provide fun for this person?

ten years ago people would've said that was terrible and everyone was entitled to a slot in a game if they wanted it.

i've modded in the past and whenever i'm modding i just don't come to anon comms. but i have friends who have modded and go to anon comms during that and they usually have a less great time?

I went here when I modded but my game never had huge wg threads. It didn't really do much other than giving me an idea of what people might be grumbling about that hadn't made it into namespace yet.
