In this case (I write having calmed down a *lot*) I humbly request for the moderators in the thread I linked, as well as NorCal and General Chat Admin, and Chatmaster, and everyone involved to come together and figure this out. For almost 2 years there has been reports of Lewis in various Chat-Avenue sites. Whether JR is Lewis or not, I feel like we can all come together and collectively help figure out the truth. Publicly and openly.That is pretty much the sum of it. We may be mods and admins, but we are also human just like ********. It is unrealistic to put mods and admin on a pedestal above ********. We all have the tools to make this place and the world in general a happier and safer place. We merely volunteer our time as mods and admins to work with you, the chatter, to do what is the right thing.
I'll always advocate for the victim, and in this case I firmly believe Astro is the victim- having gone through sexual solicitation, potential sexual harassment, and God knows what else at the hands of Lewis. We kinda owe it to him to make sure the person he believes is Lewis isn't. If it were me, it'd sure as heck help my sanity and mental recovery.
I've said it a few times before but I feel that message was distorted behind my blind anger. I truly do appreciate the admins and mods that run this site, I understand y'all are human and are doing your best... but I also feel more can be done in this specific case. As Sophie pointed out, many threads have been made about this... so why not take this opportunity to do a deep-dive? What takes more time, going through all these threads and closing them, or doing a deep-dive?
Again, I appreciate y'all and I am truly sorry for my anger, it was misplaced. Much love.
