server standing/activity - as we all know the server has been dead for about a month. my activity on gametracker shows no activity in the past month due to this. i understand that one of the checkmarks for trusted is consistent activity for a month, but i thought that maybe all the drama making the server dead would be an extenuating circumstance. i hoped that my consistent activity on the forums and in the discord will prove that i was still involved in the community while the server was dead, and if not and this gets denied due to no recent activity i completely understand. edit: oops, i was looking at my old username, coco?? for my play time. when looking at my new username, coco, it shows that i played consistently up until 04/10/2024, so its only been the past 17 days that I haven't been playing (around when all the drama started and the server began to die).
recent warns - i was warned a little over a month ago i believe for slur baiting. the situation, to be completely transparent, was as follows: i said to a friend "im going to call you a bad word... it starts with an f...... fart". i received a 4 point warn for this. then, about two weeks later, while drunk (being drunk is not an excuse, just partly an explanation) i kicked an individual who was harassing me and other women from the server, and for the reason I put a slur. I have no defense for this, I should not have taken matters into my own hands. As a result I was warned with 6 points for a slur and 4 points for donor abuse, which put me at 14 points for a three day ban. Its been about a month and I am still very sorry to everyone who had to see that side of me, and can guarantee it wont happen again!
other - I don't know how to put into words how much it hurts me to see this community so fragmented and divisive. I don't have all the answers on how to fix it, I just hope that as trusted I can be a part of the staff discussions about the current issues and voice my unbiased opinion. As a word of advice to everyone - your friends aren't always right. its okay to admit when your friends are wrong- its not a negative reflection of your character when your friend is wrong, but rather a positive reflection, as it shows that you are unbiased and can accept when someone you associate with is not in the right. All in all, we all have one thing in common - we come to this community to escape the troubles of the real world and have fun. We all need to do our part to keep this community fun, accepting, and enjoyable for us now and those to come, just as those before us worked so hard to keep it so.

Rank Desired: trusted
Current Rank: donor
What can you do to help the community: Obviously the community is in a bit of a rough spot right now. Server has been dead for several weeks, accusations flying around like crazy. What I can do to help the community is not only server-side, issuing slays and warns as well as gags and mutes, but also community-side. I hope that my very limited participation in all the drama shows that I don't engage in unnecessary attacks on people's character, and if I have something useful to add to the situation I bring it to an admin. I hope I have proved myself to be an unbiased figure in the community, as there have been times that my good friends have posted things that either are objectively wrong or I don't agree with them but I have stuck up for the side that I believe in rather than the side that my friends have taken.
Why you want to help the community: This community is obviously in shambles right now, and that breaks my heart because in the past the community has been a place for me and many others to escape reality and just have fun. I want to continue to nurture the fun part of the community while eliminating the drama as much as possible. Dinks has provided me with some of my very best friends and for that I owe it to the community to make it a fun and safe place where others can nurture friendships the same way I was allowed to.
