just out of curiosity, i checked out to see how Lilymud has been since i decided to not post there anymore... and would it be a stretch to say that things have gotten a lot worse since then? i browsed through about 7 threads there today and in each one, there was some pretty bad flaming between people :/ lots of insults to people and ideas... more snarky and rude comments than all of the other forums i go to combined... meanwhile, the mods dont really seem to care...
what has the TLK community become anyways? youd think a fandom based around a G-rated animated Disney film would be a lot more friendly than that >.< no wonder i mostly hang around so many anime people these days... theyre actually on the same wavelength as me. at least in any of the anime forums im on, you can get away with disagreeing without being called a jerk or any other of the assorted insults that exist out there that i dont really have to mention.
why is it this way with the TLK fandom? ive abandoned 2 other TLK forums and got banned from another over dumb stuff. is there just too much estrogen in the TLK community?

I have no idea. I've posted a few times there in the past few days, but havent really looked at many threads, just a couple. My guess is, a few of the 'popular' tlk artists acted that way, and then everyone else followed. People seem to not want their own opinions and actions these days =/
It seems though, that lilymud is no longer there? Now when I go to it, I just get 'register.com'

whoa, youre right. it is register.com o.O must be a recent thing because yesterday it was still normal.
i agree it has something to do with the "popular" artists since a lot of them are pretty annoying and snarky :/ though i did have a few other people blocked there as well... poor tlk fandom .-. just isnt the same now.

Meh, I check there sometimes, never join though. It seems a lot of the people there are gay, and there are children there that are like, 9 and 10! And they seem so proud of it they post about it in nearly every single thread they enter! Now what does THAT have to do with the lion king??? and what about the juniors out there? As for the flaming, yes, it is a big problem. I've even seen a mod flame someone else, though it was minor. A friend of mine is on there and she was flamed by, like, half the people on the board because she didn't like that members posted gay pride and gay quizes and gay crap. I don't entirely like gay people, all the gays and lesbians I've run into gloat all the time about it, and it's just so annoying!!! The lion king universe has gone whack. Ok, sorry, rant's over.

the youngest person ive seen there was only 7 years old .-. and she didnt really seem to have an understanding for anything!! most of her posts were just really useless and self-centered :/ very annoying. the people who mod are around 20 years old, i believe, but they obviously dont really know how to run a board. they favor their points of view and their friends the most, regardless of what happens.
i know what you mean about gay people... i couldnt care less if someone is gay or not, but do they really have to tell the world about it 24/7?? i had a friend who was gay in high school, but i didnt even know until 2 years after meeting him and it was just a little mention >_> maybe spent 2 minutes on it, tops. thats really how gay people should be >.< not make a huge racket about it, jeez. i just want to slap most of them around a bit and say "I GET THE POINT ALREADY!!" =_=

It used to be a lot nicer... I was recently talking with Evana, one of the first TLK fanartists, and she has completely stopped uploading her wonderful art on account of the way she's been treated.

Yeah Brian made an announcement about the Lilymud change on the main page of TLKFAA. I just saw it before I came here.
Lilymud has pretty much gone to pot. I wouldn't know firsthand if it used to be better because I wasn't there for very long. But there's definitely a lot of gay agenda pushing and severely intolerant attitudes toward anyone who doesn't fit within that mold. That's mostly what turned me off to it. Things are all backwards and upside down there - it's ok to rub your sexuality all over everyone but it's not ok to say "Hey man, Jesus loves you". That's just wrong, how dare anyone say that.. How offensive.. You can slap horrible names on people and spit venom all over their faces and you fit right in, but mention the G-word and they'll ban you for life. I say let them wallow in what they've created, and let's have ourselves a decent community here.

you didnt get banned for saying "God". you were banned for excessive trolling... this board needs some work to become a really decent community. more people and more debates would be nice because im getting bored here i even left for like 2 days and didnt miss a thing...

They can call it purple dinosaurs if they want, that's still not what it was.
Why do you like to debate so much? Not that there's anything wrong with a good debate, but sometimes people just don't want to and you seem to jump into it anyway. I saw how you attacked Flexico out of the blue without right or reason in my Moving thread. Sheesh. I didn't say anything then but maybe it's time someone does. That was wrong.

I agree with that Biddy person, whoever they are. Can someone go get her and bring her here? I want to throw her a party!! (Or "him" if it's a him.)
