Do you intend to make a statement about the situation with AvidMC, given that you have worked with him in Vampires and Bannerfalls?
(This is not in any way meant to pressure you to make a statement, this ask can be deleted or never responded to! I am simply curious of your stance on the situation, but it's a complicated and messy situation for sure, and I think I speak for all of us in saying it is justified to move on without speaking about it, and I don't believe any of us will judge you for doing so. Hope you and the family are doing well! <3)
I spoke about it briefly on stream today but it's worth re-iterating here too
I was only aware of one situation between Avid and another creator(s), which I was learned about pretty much after the dust had already settled. Both sides had laid it to rest and were steering clear of one another.
This sudden revelation that it wasn't an isolated incident and happening to most people in their orbit was a shock.
I seem to have avoided all of this scenario as I was never close with Avid/Marm. I've literally only interfaced with them during content and any team meeting calls for Misadventures, Vampires and Flight SMP. In Flight specifically I was never seeking them out for chit-chats or roleplay, but if I stumbled upon them I would engage because it'd be strange in character to just u-turn ya know. So you've all seen the vast majority of my interactions with them.
I'm obviously still pissed off that my friends and collaborators have been hurt (some incredibly deeply) and they all know I'm here for them as an ear should they need it, but hopefully this chapter is behind all of us swiftly. I'm hopeful that the healing process will be helped along by the fact that they've ejected themselves from the MCYT space. It means there isn't a constant reminder or injustice being thrust on their FYP or timeline constantly.
Last note, I've seen way too many people have been kicking themselves for not knowing any of this from a viewer perspective, btu how would you? I'm behind the scenes and it was mostly obscured from me too. Your standing with creators is often just 'i make silly thing, you enjoy watching silly thing' - you've no other evidence to understand their motives or movements off camera. You can only judge and inform yourself with what you're presented. So go easy on yourselves mkay?
