“What The Hell Happened To urfaveisunfuckable?”
as compiled, and experienced, by me, who you might better remember as mod sunny (or brickell)
-Rhys, head admin and creator of the blog, started an NFT solo project at some point. I am unsure of when
-After cycling through a few mods, friends and friends of friends, Rhys opens applications for becoming a mod. I apply, and am accepted.
-Shortly into working on the blog, Rhys brings up his interest in NFTs in our private discord server. Generally, they are supportive. I am not involved in this conversations, but I am aware of them
-Eventually, citing peer pressure and environmental impact, Rhys abandons his NFT project, but not before, according to him, selling one of these NFTs for $300
-Months later, we get an ask on the blog asking “was rhys going to do NFTs or did i dream that”, I respond “definately dreamt it. what the hell”. This is just a summary, so I’m not going to fight for my stance here. But I am glad the lie got caught
-A second ask comes in “rhys you have to promise us you’ll never do NFTs” which I also answer, since possible drama usually fell on me to clear up. This was the spark to the powder keg.
-The post is reblogged with insider screenshots, later found out to be sourced from mod Ruby who adds more screenshots.
-After sending the callout to the mod server, I realise nothing is going to get done about all this and I quit
-The callout is reblogged to the blog multiple times, by who is unknown
-Events spiral from here, more comprehensive documentation of Rhys’ with NFTs is revealed, as is an old instagram of his (I have receieved conflicting accounts of what happened here so I’m going to leave it out)
-Rhys handles the callout poorly on the blog, fuelling the flames before logging off.
-The blog continues to struggle on in a perpetual state of collapse, Ruby fucking around while the other mods (poorly) attempt to perform damage control.
-Finally things reach a standstill and it’s decided the blog will be deleted once and for all
-This takes a while, since tumblr’s group blog system is weird, but as of writing this it has been done
and that’s what happened.
