As of July 26th, 2020, I am resigning from BZPower staff and voluntarily requesting to be banned. I can no longer trust or vouch for this site as a safe place for users in light of the admins' failure to meaningfully condemn or punish multiple instances of abuse or harassment perpetrated by staff members against fellow BZPower members.

I will not elaborate at present, seeing as these are not my stories to tell and I do not want to give staff members who disagree with my decision any motivation to censor this message. But rest assured that this is a decision I've been contemplating for weeks, even as I naively held out hope that BZPower staff might actually take meaningful action on this matter.

I would like to extend my condolences to those who have been victims of abuse or harassment by members of this site, and forced to endure the trauma of seeing them maintain good standing within the community, even among those who knew of their actions.

Goodbye, BZPower. I'm grateful for the experiences I've had here, but it's clear to me that my continued involvement in the community will never be enough to make it the kind of safe, healthy, and supportive community that I used to believe it was.

Thanks, everyone! =D

Heh-heh. Apparently not. >8D

@Sirius: If I could say all I had on my mind in one sentence, I would.

@Tarik: I don't remember if I got that one... let me go check. Might have been some time I didn't have time to reply.

@Bitil: Yes, it was a very good topic. I ought to consider making topics about some of my gripes; lately not even blogs have had much exciting debate.

Pretty good. Happy 4th of July, everyone!

No, I was never informed of that! I really need to check the member spotlight more often. And yes, it would be nice to have a screenshot. Thank you very much for putting forth the effort of getting one!

Actually, it's one of Lyichir's shoes! Don't worry; I cut up (i.e,mutilated) a pair of socks so they wouldn't be seen.

Never mind; just the block on the school server. And I was worried for a second...

What happened to your blog? O.o

Thanks! Happy New Year to you, too!

Hi! Thanks for checking in to see if I have any new art. Fact is, I haven't updated much since my art topic died and I began working with a new style, but I have a lot of art stored up that I have yet to put on Brickshelf. Rest assured that I will try to post it as soon as I get more caught up with schoolwork and stuff.

Thanks!

Ask the member Lyichir: Rachira of Influence. He's my brother, and the one responsible for developing the Rachira. They are also characters in his epic, "Surreality," but that has been long cancelled and you are likely to get more answers by asking him.

Surprise!

My doing.

Sure.
