Glaive was deadmined today when I decided I no longer trusted him enough to have that position of power. This caps off The Bloodletting. My goal was to flush out perceived admin abuse into the open and heal that wound, but he considered it a deeply personal affront that he allowed to taint our interactions for months. It became obvious this month that he had no desire to be on good terms with me, and as such I did not feel comfortable having him as staff.

About an hour after he was deadmined, still a part of the community and in chat, he began talking about forming a splinter site. I told him that he was basically forcing me to ban him, and he said it was the other way around and that I had forced him to make a splinter site and advertise it. I obviously disagree with this and have banned him. When people began asking for his Skype name, I asked him if it was alright to disseminate it. He took this time to brag about his eagerness to build a competing forum.

[7:42:32 AM] Glaive: Uhhhh, sorta kinda, how are you organizing it
[7:42:35 AM] Glaive: Like a post
[7:42:37 AM] K. K. Slider: whoever asks
[7:42:58 AM] Glaive: Ye that's fine, or in a post is good too
[7:43:13 AM] K. K. Slider: not making a post about it. looking forward to your post on /cow/.
[7:43:36 AM] Glaive: Nah, I'm just hyped to start some ground work
[7:43:47 AM] K. K. Slider: have fun
[7:43:50 AM] *** K. K. Slider blocked Glaive ***

Skype: trollsonaplane

I changed my mind about making a thread on this because people are already bothering me with gossip. Here's a thread for the drama. I could go more into depth about why Glaive became less trustworthy but I'm pretty sure if I talked at length about his drama he'd become a Trumpatron and I don't have the energy to deal with that shit.

I don't know or have any opinions, since I'm fairly new and am not sure that I agree with or know the reasons behind his de-instatement, since he seemed like a good admin, but I do accept and acknowledge that as the owner of Kiwifarms, you have the right to demote or ban people for any reason, or even no reason at all.

I'm sorry, but why bother posting to say "I have nothing to say here"?

There's still time for that to be undone, but I don't know if I can stomach his presence in chat and around me. I doubt he'll want to come back though so it is what it is.

Time heals all wounds, so I guess we'll see.

Glaive's problem is passivity. He dealt with his ire for you in such petty passive-aggressive ways that by the time it came to boil and he got confrontational there was already so much bad blood it was basically unfixable. But that's what anyone who knows him would expect of Glaive. Your problem is denial. You're denying that the loss of Glaive's friendship hurt your feelings to the extent it did and you're trying to play this off like a sensible decision made with logic and reason, instead of what is essentially a personal falling-out that hurt you in your feels. But that's what anyone who knows you would expect of you.

You're both wrong, to some extent. Hopefully down the track this will all be smoothed over. I hate it when friends fight.
