Please come back, macabre

[JumpyCat]

Jinx,
WTF happened?!

Why did macabre suddenly leave?

Did we neglect her?
Was she just bored?

If you have her contact details (social media),
   then please ask her to come back.

She was a fine mod, and I enjoyed reading her posts.
(I didn't read ALL of them. She had like 2,000+ lol)

I downloaded a few of her games.
So, at least I have something to remember her by.

Dear macabre,
            if you're reading this:
            please consider returning.

I feel like we've lost an important crew member.
You were like an “OP” character in an MMO, and now you've suddenly “left the faction”.

I promise I will reply to your posts, so that you're less bored. xD

In case you've been wondering what the hell Jinx and I have been up to:
I've been honing my software modeling skills (important for game design).

Jinx has drawn some sprite animations, created music,
      moved into a new house,
      and is getting his PC repaired.

Jinx and I came up with a few awesome, 'Sunfishy' game ideas.

If you come back,
I promise to model some of your ideas.

I just wasn't into the conspiracy theory posts, macabre was posting. I felt like they detracted from the forums. Maybe I wasn't too polite in explaining my point of view, but that's just me. Now it seems Macabre has quit. If they want to come back then they will if not, then they won't.
I'm pragmatic about these things.

Thank  you  for  the  answer, Jinx.

I am relieved to know that her reason for leaving wasn't
   because she grew 'bored'.

Instead, she made the mistake of
               'showing her power level'!

Showing your power level means
revealing your knowledge about topics
which are deemed taboo, naughty, or
              just plain uncomfortable.

Normally, you only do this with people (or forums) that
             you trust.

macabre,
you can still trust us.
If you leave, who will look after our bunny witch?🐰🔮

Hi JumpyCat, I have a message from Macabre about their departure as we keep in contact outside the forum via e-mail (though I'd like to visit here more often, school and life in general just gets in the way .) I hope it clears up some of your concerns.

Hi Jan, in case you don't know there's been a terrible turmoil going on

Sunfish recently. Basically, it involves me and Jinx disagreeing on

certain points - he calls me (still does) a "right winger" and

"conspiracy theorist", he attacked the "truth" thread in spam subforum

despite me not breaking a single rule (well, it was me who has written

its rules, but I always make it sure that the other mods agree with

me). Apparently what pissed him off was me posting a picture of

Rothschild and Rockefeller overlaid on top of the ridiculous "fighting

c--id disinformaion" warning that proboards pesters every moderator and

admin with on the admin panel. All I wanted is to show people the

truth (and making a little prank, yes).

I don't beleive that mentioning

and discussing said "theories" must be prohibited at all costs. The idea

that "conspiracy theories" are tied to the far-right crowd is in itself

a hollow conspiracy theory, devoid of any logical basis. There is no

left and right. People from both camps can be quite toxic and bad, and

they can also be good and not notice how similar their interests are at

times. Also, contrary to what Jinx thinks about me - I do not believe

that life will not "go on".

I believe that it can go on, and it should

go on, but for that to happen people should take part in their lives

and realize what they are dealing with here. Otherwise it will not be

Life, but Existence. And no, it doesn't mean that we should do nothing

but talk about these things and amplify the poisons in our souls like

some previous members did. But such conversations should at least be

allowed to happen, and that is something I stand by.



Now, my favor is this - please tell the new members who miss me

(JumpyCat already created a thread) on my behalf, that I still love

them and wish the forums well, and for their creativity to flourish and

bring more color this grey world. However I myself can't go against my

nature by following Jinx's accusations that are so thinly veiled with

ridiculous arguments.



To jinx, I'd say this - if he believes he's pragmatic on the matter

whether I come back or not, let me be even more pragmatic - if he

believes that any mention of "conspiracy theories" is so tasteless that

it doesn't deserve even the spam section, let it be added to the

Sunfish Forum rules. Because otherwise it is just a whim, even if it's

coming from the creator. I stressed the importance of coordinating the

work between the moderators several times, but my voice was never

answered for one reason or another. Let this change.



I may come back, but if the situation is left as is, the answer is a

solid "No".

[JumpyCat]

Thank you for the info, Jan.

Luckily,
there's no hostility between herself and Jinx,
which means there's a good chance of her returning.

If she DOES return,
it's gonna suck to see her post count reduced to FUCKING 0.
She was like a god(dess) with her 2000+ post count LOLOLOL

I CAN'T EVEN THINK OF 2,000 THINGS TO SAY! ├┤a├┤A Ha

I never called Macabre a right winger. Some of the conspiracy theories, they were posting about, fed directly into the narrative of the alt right, and I don't want that on my forums.

I've seen people get ensnared by conspiracy theories, and It's my firmly held belief that it is a sad, waste of a persons mind, that almost always leads to a complete loss of perspective. I was trying to spare Macabre from such a dull fate, but at the end of a day it's a persons choice what they decide to focus their time on.

Anyway I think I've made my point clear enough. I don't bear any Ill will towards Macabre.
I do think this seems quite egotistical on their part, and that they are being more than a bit dogmatic to call upon the "truth".

One of the most dangerous and FALSE beliefs, is to believe that there is only one truth. From talking to just a few different people you can see that this is clearly not the case, as all people believe in separate truths and realities. Truth has an element of subjectivity and is part of a scale that goes towards greater degrees of falsehood or greater degrees of truth, but truth itself is not an absolute.
Well Truth, as a concept, as in the idea of Maat, is an absolute, but the "truths" that most people refer to, tend to be of the relative variety.
I would be highly suspicious of any individual who claim to know "the truth".
To me that smacks of egotism and sounds like some kind of power reassurance tactic, ahah that's just my bad sense of humor kicking in.

Maybe I could ask my friend KR to join the forums and then there can be a whole topic revolving around bad slime art.
Perhaps that would fix the forums.
