A Final Thought
Added 2019-02-08 23:12:55 +0000 UTCDear Patrons,
The earlier scenario I addressed has continued to unfold and I felt it was necessary to address it one last time. I stand by my decision to enforce a community guideline of no debates. This isn’t a forum for debates. My time is better spent creating content than it would be mediating arguments. That said, some Patrons have reached out to me and expressed that the way I dealt with the situation caused them to feel unheard, misunderstood, and even attacked or unwelcome. This couldn’t be further from what I wanted to accomplish. While it is within my rights as the host of this page to decide what types of conversations I want to allow or prohibit here, I now realize that the way I went about asserting that right wasn’t as fair and impartial as this community deserves. Every single supporter of mine deserves to feel safe, even when I’m making executive decisions. I’ve taken this as a learning experience for the future, and I look forward to all of us working together to create a fun, healthy atmosphere.
Respectfully, Hank

2019-02-09 02:26:38 +0000 UTCI'm a simple girl. I get angry. I hold it in. I masturbate. I climax. Anger comes out in a happier, healthier way. (tmi;dr: If someone rubs you the wrong way, rub yourself the 𝘳𝘪𝘨𝘩𝘵 way ~ ♡)

2019-02-09 02:25:14 +0000 UTCI think it’s really admirable that your goal is to find a way to learn from the situation and be as fair as possible. It takes so much maturity and mindfulness to look at an obviously emotional, volatile situation and identify ways in which you can grow and better yourself from it instead of focusing on anger or self-justification - which is tempting but ultimately just leads to making the same mistakes over and over. I respect you so much for that, it can be tough to do. I’m also in awe of how many sweet people you’ve got in this community and how supportive they are. They make it easy to extend the benefit of the doubt and assume that we have the best of intentions in the way we treat others. Seems like we’re all here to have fun and enjoy your talent - pretty simple at the end of the day. Much love and respect to everyone here. 💛💛💛

2019-02-09 00:05:13 +0000 UTCI agree with Jade, in that I saw no problem with your last statement. It was firm, but fair. It can be difficult to get along with strangers when you can't always tell intent or tone from a comment. People make assumptions that aren't justified and feelings get hurt. It happens all the time. What really resonated with me, though, from your last message was when you asked everyone to assume that all comments are made with the best intentions. That's what I've tried to do. I believe we're all here to show our love and appreciation for you and your talent. Our comments reflect that and it's all in good fun. I truly believe that no one here has any intention to upset or offend anyone. We all just need to learn to step back sometimes and not be too quick to react...myself included. Thank you again Hank for the obvious consideration you have for ALL of your patrons. You're a good person! 🤗💖

2019-02-08 23:17:25 +0000 UTCI have no idea what happened at all but I support your decision as, at the end of the day, it’s your page and you want to make sure that stuff is controlled at risk of offending other patrons. You can’t please everybody. I’m glad you see this as a learning moment though, and we can all get along as best as we can! I personally see no issue with your last statement and you acted within your right. Be safe Hank and thank you for continuing to be a thoughtful listener and mediator.
