Wew been a while since I was last in the thread and been catching up
@confused guest and
@MRfive
A true friend wouldn't treat you like this, while it can suck when friends are in awkward situations - you have *every* right to seek understanding when things are not adding up a good, friend might hurt from that - but not punish or "stick you on probation" for it (at least in a professional way, they might need time to get over the hurt personally but still!)
Joop didn't say a bad word about PK or Eevee. They came into the thread I assume, to counter some of the recent fresh stories, not out of anger - but because the person they saw wasn't the one others were seeing (this is actually pretty normal in an abuse situation - the ones being "groomed" see the nice side, those who are not see something else). They noted this was weird, but they they wanted to believe in their friends. That's natural and understandable. The way PK is treating you is abusive - she wants to spook you and make an example of you. That's not friendship, that's dictatorship.
I also assume Joop is a bit young because the typing style suggests so, and PK and her buddies seem to really like delegating moderation of their sites and discord to young starry-eyed fans that are too excited to be given responsibility to question anything. The discord mod who relayed Marl's "smoking gun" confession that the logs were real was also a non-binary questioning young person too as I recall (not Joop but someone else) and they got gulaged too despite batting for the team up to that point. Of course we can't and shouldn't pressure you to stay just because PK doesn't like it - your safety and well being comes first. But I just want you to know It's not your fault - no matter what she says to you.
It's also clear that these people are coming here not because they suddenly hate PK, but rather out of concern for them and what's going on.
@Needle Fletcher also doesn't come across disliking PK but I imagine there's a lot of complicated feelings going on with them too.
