Elaborating on (SRFR's) Mod Fig's racism and lies against Suri.
Shortly before Suri was kicked from Station Rally for RAINN, Mod Fig reached out to Suri to tell them to stop reblogging from @this-is-orientalism (@/checkyourasianbias, these two blogs are run by the same person) because they were "okay with proshipping/incest." Fig provided NO evidence for this, NO link, NO screenshot, just heresay. Suri, being Fig's friend at the time, believed this, and stopped reblogging these posts speaking out against racism. In retrospect, this blog has been searched. There are NO results for this blog making ANY statements on incest/proshipping, indicating Fig MADE THIS UP to get Suri to stop speaking on racism. That is incredibly fucked up and it's difficult to see this and NOT believe Suri's removal was racially motivated.
Even further, Fig LIED about WHO and HOW Suri was reported.
This is what Fig told ME during my conversation in the ticket:
"someone" reached out with discomfort. Someone, implying one person. So, I asked if they were ever shown who this "someone" is, as Fig's friends have mentioned history with Fig saying "multiple people came to me with concerns" when justifying their smear campaigns against someone before cutting them off. Fig replied that this "someone," this ONE PERSON, "made the choice to reach out through DMs, they did not want to be in a ticket with other mods." Trout also mentioned they were never shown who it was that "reached out." Funny. Their story changed. They lied. Here's what Fig said to Suri the day they were kicked.
Not only is it EXTREMELY unprofessional that this was Fig's OPENING MESSAGE to "discuss" this issue with Suri, but they claimed "I've gotten multiple tickets." In short, Fig lied about "multiple people" having issues, AND we have seen NO evidence that this "someone else who notified Fig" EVEN EXISTS. This, in addition with everything shown above, is absolutely fucking disgusting behavior.
apparently station-rally-for-rainn exposed THEMSELVES by posting the full screenshots showcasing their hypocritical behavior, even further hypocritical as they continue to censor the identity of one of the people I reported. But mostly, I want to address this:
Shima was kicked FOR HER OWN SAFETY?! So. You see no issue with her proshipping. You see no issue with her talking about engaging with smut for a series with loli. You.. kicked her "so she wouldn't have to deal with criticism," essentially. Wow.
"Downplaying grooming." I am a grooming victim. Mod Fig knows this. I am not "downplaying grooming" whatsoever. If you read my post, it is VERY clear I am not implying Shima is a groomer for posting about BMC, but specifically for THE WAY THEY INTERACTED WITH A MINOR ASKING FOR NSFW.
(I should note, I didn't notice the typo here, I meant to say your blog is NOT "sfw for the kiddies.")
This is, once again, incredibly hypocritical, as (at least fig, but potentially more of) mods behind this fundraiser have agreed with criticizing Gooseworx for similar interactions with fans.

(The post originally had grooming in the title and accused Gooseworx of grooming, but was rephrased after receiving criticism.) I would also like to clarify, I never made any public posts about this situation UNTIL AFTER they closed the ticket while I was eating and away from my computer. 3. If you lack context, I highly encourage reading these posts. Though SRFR would not want you to, as they have directly said "don't believe anyone criticizing us, only believe us defending and excusing our behavior."
None of my posts have EVER "accused without context." Every single post I have made about this situation has provided evidence and screenshots for my claims.

I also honestly admit I just.. generally think that even having a "pitch hitter" role is inherently disrespectful towards artists. Like. You're admitting they're adjacent to the "bottom of the barrel" for you, that you would prefer to have the "artists" participate in the project, but you'll "accept" one of the "backups" if you can't get who you want. In my opinion, this could've been kind of easily fixed. Just have everyone be an artist, have a goal of how many pieces of merch you want to get out, make sure enough artists are doing each type of merch, and that way, if something goes wrong, you don't have to say "can you draw something last-minute to fill in for this person" because they will have already drawn it! If this is a FUNDRAISER, why is there even a LIMIT on merch items in the first place when you HAVE artists ("pitch hitters") sitting on the sidelines not being asked to do ANYTHING unless last-minute someone else fails you? Wouldn't you want to have.. every artist create as much merch as they are up for doing. So that you have MORE art pieces to sell for the FUNDRAISER??
If being a pinch hitter was so disrespectful to artists why did you sign up as one
Because I was naive and was just happy to be included without recognizing the massive issues behind this structure until re-examining everything after the fact, asshole. Also, I saw you leaving that comment abt "cropping fig's response." I never did that. I will show the screenshot again for context:
I had to scroll in this position to get all the messages in 1 screenshot, you can see the purple scroll bar on the side of the screen, so I assumed people would've noticed that and recognized from the context of my post that I am specifically talking about the issue that Fig DID NOT REACH OUT TO ME, and I was not notified on the status of this potential promotion UNTIL I REACHED OUT TO ASK. My point was about how I was not told if I was going to replace an artist or not and Fig NEVER told me that. I had to reach out to ask. Yes, Fig answered AFTER I ASKED, but that is not the point, which is why I did not think it warranted taking a 2nd screenshot. It should NEVER have been my responsibility to reach out when you say "maybe we'll promote you." Imagine if this wasn't a "pitch hitter" thing, and I received an email saying "hey, your application is pending, but we think you'd be a good fit for the fundraiser! do you have the time/energy to commit to working for us?" and I said "yes," and NEVER GOT A REPLY. They should be confirming this. They should be reaching out to me to say "yes, this person was not available, you are now chosen as an artist," or "no, this person did join in time, updating to let you know unfortunately you will not be given the promotion we offered you." That was my issue. I should've made that clear, but that does not justify leaving these angry and petty comments, and it's getting to the point where I think you might just be Fig's alt.
I also honestly admit I just.. generally think that even having a "pitch hitter" role is inherently disrespectful towards artists. Like. You're admitting they're adjacent to the "bottom of the barrel" for you, that you would prefer to have the "artists" participate in the project, but you'll "accept" one of the "backups" if you can't get who you want.

Wouldn't you want to have.. every artist create as much merch as they are up for doing. So that you have MORE art pieces to sell for the FUNDRAISER??
Also while this situation is ongoing, I would not be surprised if they have. issues. with pitch hitters, considering how I was treated:
I was literally left on read and had to fucking reach out to ask if I was officially part of the team or not. I would not be surprised if other pitch hitters experience(d) something similar. Another example of this team being VERY unprofessional.
At the time of making this post, Shima is still on the list as part of and working on the Station Rally for RAINN fundraiser. It has been well over 24 hours now. What the fuck.
It has now been over 48 hours since they were notified of Shima's behavior and she is still on the list as part of the project.
The claims against Shima are way bigger and would take way more time to verify afaik
And yet after 24 hours the mod team couldn’t even say if they were gonna remove her from what was shown to them. Because Rox did show them stuff and was able to find more during that timeframe.
Mind you, Suri was kicked rather quickly for something they fixed as soon as they were asked too (not having a proper tw tag on a post).
Rox’s concerns were not taken seriously, again, despite proof being shown that Shima had a history of proshipping, and Rox himself was talked down too.
also it would take like 5 minutes to verify because I literally posted the links to these posts publicly, so. you can verify a link in one second by clicking on it and seeing that the post exists. it's really not that hard or time-consuming like they pretend it is.

Did you read any of these posts before shit-talking me and my friends?
I should also address part of the reason I was/am angry and upset over Shima not being kicked is because the moderation team has been VERY flip-floppy about whether or not Shima will be kicked at all or will remain part of the project as a popular white artist, while Suri (not white) was kicked within a day. This message was in my initial report, 2 days ago now:
(2nd screenshot is a post I found very suspicious from a different user, not Shima. Mods have ignored my concerns over it because it's "just satire.")
Note how they never actually respond to my concerns about the possibility of them not wanting to kick Shima at all. They simply say "well yeah we're not going to kick her without 'due process.'"
hi, i’m suri! the SRFR mods kicked me for reblogging this post. read it carefully, don’t jump at the words used, and you’ll realize this post is discussing a character’s desire for recognition and companionship by looking at it through the framework of intimacy and sex, which are, actually, ideas that are present in the source material (ex. “you don’t even have a dog”.)
outside of this post, i’m a grooming and adoptive incest victim with very strong personal reasons for not wanting to see rape, incest and pedophilia normalized or glamorized in fiction. the mods, particularly mod fig, knew this about me, and yet have spread lies about me being a proshipper or having deleting posts about being anti proship.
(please note: i do not keep a tag for proship, i keep specific tags for incest, rape, csa, pedophilia and lolisho.)
roxtron above me has been very busy compiling evidence of shima’s gross behavior, including inappropriate conduct with a minor. i was kicked in about 10-12 hours, under half the time it took for them to even address complaints about her.
i am a person of color and not well known for my art. shima is an established white woman. the difference in standards i was held to and chances (or lack thereof) i was given is, in fact, a form of racism. this has not even been acknowledged by the mods, nor have i recieved any sort of apology from any of them.
this is the reason we want attention brought to these issues.
YEP. God they are really sticking to the rumors they're spreading about you.
+ no matter how much the fundraiser's mods want to twist my words and intentions, they know very well what my intentions were:

Why is Shima still part of the Station Rally for RAINN fundraiser 24 hours after I reported them and sent these screenshots to mods? Prefacing this with the fundraiser's stance on proshipping:

Shima would've been 20 at this time. Immediately seeing a minor asking for NSFW and saying "I dunno if you should read it, you're underage," then IMMEDIATELY following that with this CREEPY AS HELL "I didn't know you were 17! When's your birthday? You're close to my age haha."

The post promoting them for RAINN's fundraiser is still up at time of posting: https://www.tumblr.com/rainn-station-rally/822312113354752001/meet-the-artists It is likely the comment will be deleted, but they were also warned of this and gave a very dismissive response on the post itself.
Essentially, they accused anyone saying Shima was proship of lying, directly accused me of faking the screenshots, and more. Not only was it a disgusting oversight for Shima to ever be approved and make it past initial screenings, but it is further disgusting she has not been removed 24 hours after being informed, despite days before removing a member for "making an anon uncomfortable" showing a non-proship post as proof, and accusing that person of being proship.
oh, so they KNEW but hired them anyway. good god
can someone make an actual fundraiser where they actually commit to not having predatory people like shima??
+ twitter so people can block them
Merch Project fundraising for RAINNStation Rally for RAINN is a new Submas merch fundraiser project. STATUS: APPLICATION RESULTS
They were informed, yes, and to my knowledge Shima still has not been removed and they are protecting her by referring to her as an "unnamed potential proshipper."
💬 1 🔁 0 ❤️ 1 · Hello everyone! Mod Scythe here. Unfortunately, this is not an artist post you were expecting, nor is it a fun update. r
hi there station rally! would you like to explain why literally no action was taken here until this was made public? this ticket was opened over 24 hours ago. it took you half that time to kick someone literally days prior.
Really "classy" to censor these to avoid taking accountability for what actually happened, too.
Along with gaslighting me, and saying I must not be calm and must be hysterical triggered.
it should be noted that this ticket was closed while prev had taken a break to eat, which was incredibly disingenuous.
Sorry for the late response but yes I can confirm this. I took a break not because I was told to, not because I was "triggered" as they put it, but because I hadn't had any meals yet that day and figured I'd take that opportunity to get a break from the drama and go eat.
The messages shown above were the final messages in that chat before mods closed the ticket and shut down the conversation, all without addressing my main concern, whether or not shima would be banned bc they "don't trust" that my evidence I showed them wasn't "fabricated."
Shit going down the way it did sucks because.. Fucking obviously I wanted to support RAINN and the fundraiser's goals. Hell, I'd already decided that even if I got picked to be an artist (if i remember right artists would recieve some of the merch free for participating?) that I would still spend some of my own money to purchase some of the merch and support the fundraiser. So, yeah, I am really disappointed, because I do care a lot about that cause and that's why I wanted to support it despite having no association with the characters the fundraiser was for. I never played the games the characters are from or really knew they existed until I saw the fundraiser. My investment was almost entirely because I cared about the cause, which makes me all the more angered to see Mod Fig say shit like this:
Both mods were shown this. When Scythe was shown, blame was shifted onto me for trying to be transparent about how Fig talked behind their backs.
Hello everyone! Mod Scythe here. Unfortunately, this is not an artist post you were expecting, nor is it a fun update.
recently, it has been brought to our attention that someone on our team is potentially proship. we have, unfortunately, already had to deal with this before, but this time the investigation could not be carried out as quickly (and is still ongoing) due to most mods being unavailable, and we do not make important decisions like this without the whole team, nor is there an automatic removal upon being alerted. We need to look into each claim, and check ourselves, as well as consider many factors such as dates, growth, and of course the actual wording and tone. Since i had been out for a few days, i was not able to tend to this issue and by proxy our other mods could not come to a conclusion as the full team is needed for situations like this.
it was not something that came politely, and i had returned early after seeing clear signs of stress from a mod which inclined me to believe it was from the fundraiser. i had opened my account to dms of personal conversations from a mod being sent to me unconsentually by someone after an argument with them in a ticket, describing the behavior as ‘talking about the mods behind our backs, and using me as a scapegoat’. All of the conversation sent was sensitive in nature, and did not reflect what i was being told at all. this pattern followed when i opened a ticket made in the SRFR server, where the same person had borderline harassed our staff in order to prove a point, bringing up a possible proshipper and giving them (the other mods) less than a few hours to even get a hold of themselves as they were both going through something stressful on their own. The word hypocritical was thrown around quite a lot, and dms from other people not involved were sent with name calling.
we take every case seriously, and i will continue to talk the case of a possible proshipper and giving member over with our mods, HOWEVER, what i do not condone under any circumstances, is blackmailing, defacing, and harassment with clear intent on unfair grounds. Since this ticket was opened, our words have been twisted to fit a clear narrative and every response has been tailored to mark us as ablest or otherwise. We do not entertain this behavior and try to move past it in a professional way, but with multiple tumblr posts of those part of the harassment retracting their support and smearing our names without any context, we felt the need to make this.
We obviously wont post the conversation, since it shows a lot of distress from both sides, but there was clear reaching in many cases that left most of us baffled while trying to do our job of sorting it out. The explanation of what the person in question was saying being not "really reflective of reality" was met with "so you are calling me delusional?"
Similar word twistings were used in almost every message, and what im imagining is being used to call me ablest is the most recent situation. This i WILL show, censored, since its the most prevelant accusation here.
I believe i worded myself clearly here, but I will reiterate it in a clearer way here. I myself grew up with autism along with other mental disorders that had made me rude to others on purpose because I had believed it was my right. How that is, is not anyone's business, but it is important here because throughout the years I had learned to heal from that harmful coping mechanism, and I actively improve myself especially upon critique and limit myself when I notice I am getting out of hand, to the point i am considered a safe person to many. I cannot expect anyone to immediately calm down or shove their emotions away like I can to talk with someone, but I can expect them to at the very least try, and not go to the extent they are at now. Harassing mods for not looking into an all hands on deck case is not something I will ever appreciate, especially when it is targeted and manipulative. The other mods are also autistic, and while some of their messages may have came off as rude this was mediated by talking eachother through responses while I was not there to help since I'm usually the one to do responses the most. This message was brought up out of no where, and while we are deeply sorry for the trauma they went through our mods were simply asking for more time only to be met by more backlash for needing it.
Along with this, since things did get mutually heated, mods NEED to discuss things before sending out messages, including users brought up in tickets, and the one who opened it is aware of this. We do apologize for how the moderation was handled after the mods were pushed, but we do have to remain professional despite that and it is not something that should have happened.
If you do not feel comfortable interacting with us after this, I absolutely understand and that is in your right, but I implore a lot of you to think about where your sources are coming from and ask more questions, at least if you aren't already. Our team has always found the safety of our community to be the top priority, and anything that could shatter that or cause distrust is not something we want.
We care about all of you, even if its not on a personal level because we created this fundraiser to help a charity and bring together two intersecting communities. If we ever slip up, we will take accountability and earn back that trust tenfold because thats the kind of people we are.
We only brought this up due to the number of increasing posts on this situation (one was posted as I was writing this, another was posted prompting me to post ahead of schedule, its only getting worse) and we wouldn't have done this if this was something that could be handled privately. This was something made public against our will, so we have to respond to it.
Have a wonderful day if you're reading this, and please stick around for our continued usual updates after this.
