Zola doesn't need any justifications for defending this community in anyway she sees fit. You're speaking about her as if she was some kind of tyrant, the truth is she's been more initially receptive of new people than I personally would have been. HP ZolaLuckyStar wants to see this community grow, everyone can see that, so in that way our interests align enough to trust that she'll do what is necessary when it's necessary. She's doing a very good job, unlike you who left to make some crap discord server that doesn't even make sense?
Also, your server has like 6 members who aren't even active, so how exactly are you going to collaborate with a forum with about 40? This place gets significantly more traffic than toxic waste ever will, because we have specified standards in this community and it has become somewhat controversial to ex jos members. There's nothing you or your server really has to offer anyone that values this community, because frankly there's too much contradiction regarding community ethics.
You also seem to have this "do whatever I want" attitude as well, where you also obviously feel entitled to post here. Well, clearly Zola disagrees. Kind of seems like you waited for her to sleep like any other troll seems to do. You should have spoken to Zola directly and made sure whatever deal you made was still valid, instead of returning to a place you abandoned and expect some kind of status and privilege?
I wanted to write a more thoughtful response explaining my situation. I will respond to your other concerns shortly. Please understand that I was not asking Zola to justify her actions in defending the community. Instead, I was asking another user to justify their baseless accusations. It is important to remember that everyone is entitled to their own opinions and beliefs, but it is also important to ensure that these opinions and beliefs are based on facts and evidence. Unfounded accusations can be harmful and hurtful, and it is important to address them in a respectful and thoughtful manner. I was encouraging the other user to consider the impact of their words and to consider the evidence before making accusations.
You expressed some concerns about my server. As the creator of Toxic Waste Project, I want to take a moment to acknowledge that our community is small in comparison to other communities like T4S. While T4S serves as a platform for individuals to connect and share information with one another, our community serves a completely different purpose.
We understand that some members of T4S may view our community as a potential threat, but we want to assure you that this is not the case. Our community is not here to compete with T4S or to steal its members. Instead, we serve a unique niche and have a specific mission that is different from that of T4S.
In fact, we believe that having multiple communities with different focuses can be beneficial for everyone. It allows individuals to find the community that best fits their interests and needs. We encourage members of T4S to check out our community and see if it aligns with their interests. But if it doesn't, we still wish the best for the T4S community and hope that it continues to thrive and grow.
You asked what I can offer in terms of collaboration. Although it's true that I am starting from humble begginings, it's important to rememeber that T4S was a small community too not to long ago.
I am proud to say that I have been an active member of the T4S community since its early days. When I first joined, the community was small and relatively unknown. But through hard work and dedication, I helped to grow the community and turn it into the thriving platform it is today.
I began by reaching out to my own network and encouraging them to join T4S. I also spent countless hours on the platform, engaging with other members and contributing valuable content. I helped to moderate the community, ensuring that it remained a positive and welcoming place for all members.
As the community grew, I also worked closely with the T4S team to provide feedback and suggestions for improving the platform. Thanks to the efforts of the team and the community, T4S now boasts an active user base and a wide range of features and resources for members.
Regarding your statements about my attitude. I have only been respectful since my initial return to your message boards.
As much as I would love to spend all my waking hours chatting with my dear friend Zola, unfortunately, our schedules don't always align. I live in a different time zone than her, and I also have a full-time job that keeps me busy during the day.
This means that there are times when Zola is asleep and I am wide awake, and vice versa. However, that doesn't mean that we can't still keep in touch. I make sure to log on to our messaging platform at a time that is appropriate for my country and schedule. This way, I can still have meaningful conversations with Zola and catch up on what's been going on in her life, even if she's asleep when I am online.
I understand that this might not be the most ideal situation, but it's important to remember that we are living in different parts of the world, and our schedules are not going to be perfectly aligned all the time. It's all about finding a balance that works for both of us. And I'm happy to say that we have managed to do just that in the past.
So, if you ever see me online during the wee hours of the morning, don't be surprised. I'm just making the most of the time difference and catching up with my dear friend Zola.
