So uh... Jul 19, 2019
I am a mess and a disaster.
Like everyone here, hi.
   
I was meant to do a charity game to get the karma for TV star but keep forgetting. I'm starting a new job soon so I'm gonna struggle with being active in a game on here.
   
But besides that, my life is such a mess. I'm in a relationship for the first time, it's been 2 months and I don't know why they're still with me...but I really like being with them.

Heyo ๐Ÿ˜… Jun 15, 2019
I'm thinking to do a karma-for-TV Star charity on Monday. I'll be working from home next week so should be able to play a Crookies.

Would anyone be up for helping? ๐Ÿ˜…

Life Update Jun 7, 2019
I dunno why I logged in, but hey, lot's has happened since I was last on.
- Tengaged hit its 11 year anniversary and I was not here, did anyone do anything for it? ๐Ÿ˜…
- I turned 28
- I no longer have stomach ulcers
- I don't have tuberculosis
- I had surgery yesterday, I no longer have metal in my leg
- I tried a bit of wine ๐Ÿค
   
So that's my life update. Honestly, I'm pretty content not being on this website.
   
I think I'll do a Crookies charity to get to TV Star someday then I think that would be it for me.

Drained (health stuff, tmi blog) Mar 23, 2019
I have been coughing up blood. It started on my birthday last year.
Since then, it's randomly happened at least a dozen times, twice this past week.
   
I have/had stomach ulcers and don't have a why yet. But everytime I'm really stressed, blood comes out.
   
My GP pretty much said, "Just don't be stressed."
Gosh I wish it was that easy.
   
From an endoscopy last October, they deduced it wasn't a bacterial infection but at that point, the ulcers were almost healed.
   
So I guess they came back with vengeance? ๐Ÿคท๐Ÿฝโ€โ™€๏ธ
   
But that's why I've barely been on these past few weeks and why I didn't start my charity, sorry if people were waiting for me ๐Ÿ˜–

With the Moderation Drama... Mar 5, 2019
Just gonna point out that I'm not and never was on the Moderation team, wasn't offered a spot on the team either.
Which is fine, I've been quoted saying I don't want the role.
   
No one should -want- that role, it's an awful role and on top of that, it's unpaid work.
   
At my current job, they've decided to lump me with more responsibility; I'm an "expert" or a point of contact for a particular section of the product.
How awesome, that's something expected of a level 3 tech!
   
Except I'm a level 1 tech. So they're lumping me with the work of a level 3 tech with the pay of a level 1.
Yeah it's bull-poop.
   
The amount of work you have to do as a moderator to be able to monitor everything, spot the unreported things and to look into the reported things to make a fair judgement is time consuming. It's time consuming and draining because no matter what decision you make - even if it's fair - you'll get hated.
   
However no matter what people say, we NEED some form of moderation. Whether it's Randomize putting in some form of an automated moderation system, or people doing the role themselves, we need something.
   
As long as the site is 13+, we need something.
   
And even though I don't want the role (and don't understand why anyone would want it), if I was offered, I'd say yes. But part-time.
   
I don't care if I'm hated, I barely matter here anyway. If it breaks a rule, it breaks a rule, and that's how I'd view it. ๐Ÿคท๐Ÿฝโ€โ™€๏ธ
   
If possible, if it is a subjective issue or something which is not so clear cut, would try and give the accused a chance to defend themselves...but it is difficult...not had that perspective to see how that would go....
   
EDIT: I guess if we had like a pre-ban like Quarantine Area where someone who would get banned has 24 hours to log into their account and plead their case to Moderation before being officially banned, would be interesting.
   
That's my rant.
Tl:dr I don't wanna be a mod, it's a hard role, but would take the role if offered.
   
Don't think I ever will be offered though. ๐Ÿคฃ
