I understand we have moderators again. But...how do reports work now? Are we private messaging the moderators themselves? Or is there a new T_Mod account? Or is there a report page feature I've missed? 馃槙
Firstly, Tengaged looks very strange and this is a lot. But hi.
I'm not saying I'm permanently back but I have some things I feel I need to say. Here are why I have avoided this website.
- Blogging
Blogging was my main motivation for using Tengaged. Expressing my thoughts, feelings and dumb ideas was a highlight for me. But for a while, I'd log into Tengaged, stare at the blogs and have nothing to say. This kept going and until recently, I've not felt motivated to write anything.
- Tengaged Drama
I had an argument with an old Tengaged friend last year. I'm not going into it now but we are no longer friends and I have no intention to speak to them again. This was someone who I had known for years and it did hurt when that happened. But honestly, I'm glad it happened. It was a learning experience and I shouldn't keep people in my life who feel like it's okay to say the things they said to me.
- Being Doxxed
Not long after the drama, I was doxxed. And it was personal. I am not accusing anyone here (it may not have been someone in the Tengaged Community). But it hurt. I was dealing with other personal things at the time and being doxxed in that way was the cherry on top. I had a breakdown at work. It sucked.
What hit me hardest is this is what people on Tengaged do with drama. If you trusted someone with your personal details, they can use that to hurt you if you evicted them in a game.
I will reiterate, I'm not blaming anyone here. But that was the nail on me no longer wanting to be on this website.
I'm sorry for this rant. These past 2 years have been a rollercoaster. I have mixed feelings about officially coming back to this website. I've been a member of this website for almost 12 years, which is insane.
I'm sorry I have missed the anniversary this year. Hope it was worthwhile. 馃槉
Logged in because I heard about the upsetting news regarding Capguy1.
Hope you all are coping well during this pandemic.
Happy Ramadan to all the Tengaged Muslims.
I might log in again for the Tengaged Anniversary next month, will see.
