“But fang you’re not being held at gunpoint forced to describe it again and again” but unfortunately it feels like that because there are a solid of three people in the world that u trust to correct the misinformation about this fucking website sorry. I have to be a bitch no matter how exhausting that is for me

do you guys think that if i have to discuss this same stupid topic one more time I’ll be given legal compensation orrrr

NaNoWriMo is dead and I'm glad for it.

I get that it's a tradition, I get that lots of people have found community and support (and sometimes even life partners!) through the events and organization, but it was not a good organization, especially over the last several years.

It wasn't good to it's staff or volunteers, it wasn't good to the users of it's site or forums, and it sure as hell wasn't good for the kids in the Youth Writer's Program.

NaNoWriMo is dead, and you can write literally anywhere. Let's get writing.

source as another user has said. I was there. I would appreciate it if you didn’t demean dozens of children’s trauma to a shit post. Thanks

here is a copy pasted explanation from this reblog of a post from a year ago because I have to keep doing this bullshit. It’s as many websites and resources and evidence that I can currently compile with my energy level and the fact as earlier stated. The website would get wiped every year it was a big event to the user base. After that you had no access to prior information. Many grooming victims were as they most often are, entirely unaware of what was really happening. 14 year olds don’t really think to document every time something scary or disturbing happens on that website because quite frankly there was always a new issue every month.

for starters there are two branches of nanowrimo, the ywp [young writers program, with forums for ages 13-18] and the main forums [with forums for ages 13+ but majorly had an adult audience with smaller side age locked teen spaces if they wanted spaces just for them].

there was rampant grooming, bigotry, everything under the sun on both platforms, i was part of the ywp, as was nightmare, and many of my friends. we were majorly victims of abuse, and the moderators would neglect the forums for days on end, sometimes we wouldn't hear back for weeks. known predators were allowed to roam freely. many of us struggled with our mental health, especially from the added weight of having to take care of younger users and moderate the site. some users would harass us for weeks on end and we were told to kill ourselves at least a few times.

i watched mods do nothing as a 13 year old middle schooler was being groomed into a relationship with a 17 year old high schooler. we would report people who were putting users in danger, and the mods wouldn't get back to us until three or more days, which sent a lot of people into a spiral in fear for themselves and others. many of us didn't have anywhere else to go. known groomers and abusers were allowed to roam the site however they liked and if you attempted to run them off the mods would remove you because the way you handled it was too harsh or not kindly worded. they were more concerned about how nice things looked rather then child safety. mods abused their powers over us again and again and any time we tried to say that it wasn't okay they claimed we were being cruel and abusing them. as if they weren't the adults with powers over the majority of the site.

on the main site grooming was rampant as well. a mod Allegedly faked their death, pretended to be multiple people, sent kids towards fetish websites. i have heard there were attempted fbi reports in the works, but that was last november and i have no idea what happened since then. i cannot speak much on this specifically as i was rarely ever apart of the main site, but i've talked to many people who were.

we've been attempting to raise awareness on the topic for over a year now but nobody listened and it all dwindled out. the ai discussion ended up creating a very big and popular anti nanowrimo stance but honestly forgets the most horrific and important parts of nanowrimo, not the ai. ai is not the issue lmao

i'm gonna link everything i can below

i've done my best to sort through everything important and file it under my blog as #anti nanowrimo

here are tiktoks part 1 and 2 on the topic

the original twitter awareness thread (which includes both my friend's and my own testimonies on it. and the website my friends made to try and host their stories) and it also features the discussion of the alleged fbi case

reddit posts on the topic with direct quotes, testimonies, and experiences

tumblr post 1 2 3 4 5 6 7

this post specifically has a lot of testimonies and first hand accounts from many teens on the site i would recommend reading through the reblogs and notes if you wanted firsthand accounts

two youtube videos on the topic

if anyone has anything else they would like to add, any errors noted, or any questions please let me know, and other ywp or nano users are free to add on as they please! this is just my best brief overview on the topic that i can give off the top of my head

but yeah ai is the least of nanowrimo's problems lol

Can't believe NaNoWriMo just did this, but literally.

goodbye and good fucking riddance to that website that I hate. Nanowrimo can rot in hell. Not for the ai issues but for the child abuse, grooming, and predation. For the dangerous environment and the rampant racism. For the incompetence and constant abuse of power. Get your facts and reasoning straight please and thank you

Prosecutors argued that Mangione was carrying about $10,000 in cash and that his bag was a Faraday bag that blocks cellphone signals—all proof that he was a sophisticated criminal who should be held without bail. “‘I’d like to correct two things,’” Mangione said after the prosecutor finished speaking, according to CNN’s Danny Freeman, “‘I don’t know where any of that money came from—I’m not sure if it was planted. And also, that bag was waterproof, so I don’t know about criminal sophistication.’”

something I’ve noticed with all this polyamory “discourse” (bigotry) is that 90% of tumblr can’t even actually identify what the the actual problem with cheating is.

Wild Robot is an incredible movie, and I would definitely recommend it, but for the first 5 minutes, there is strobing. There is heavy-duty flashing. If you are epileptic or have light sensitivity and want to see this movie, please close your eyes for the first 5 minutes (10, if you want to be sure) of the film. Please be safe
