I live for Flight Rising Drama

Tumblr for beautiful drama shit that happens on Flight Rising. Here's hoping no one ever finds out who I am lol.He/Hims please.

I can't believe Arcane is trying to dom at all with how huge the flight is. I'm in Arcane for the aesthetic and don't give a fuck abt dom I'm just astonished that there are people actually TRYING when the odds of us winning are so low bc so many of us are either casuals or inactive or just don't care. They're making a mountain out of an anthill but that's usually how it goes with fr drama anyways lol

Lol good bait.

Catvrix has always seemed unwelcoming to me, kinda aggressive towards newbies. Which, I will say, is perhaps just their writing style, I understand that. And then they are just another part of the clique who gets angry if you ever disagree with “those in charge”. about a month ago the “we did this in ice” was real bad.

You should come off anon or DM because I want to be able to give you some good juicy talk because boy do I have some deets about the clique they’re a part of.

[thatgoodfrdramashit]

I’m the anon, don’t want to go off anon and post on the DR post. The C I’m speaking of is Catvrix. I only know two ‘Cs’ in Arcane so now I’m confused and thinking there’s a ton @.@ What’s the dirt on all the Cs?

There’s Cerys who is a lead, versus Catvrix, who just retired. I know Catvrix made stink about trying to turn Arcane into Ice 2.0, but what else have they done?

Arcane Dom Drama

Broke: Arcane bad at Dom, Arcane doesn’t try, Arcane has shitty raffles and events

Woke: Arcane struggles with dominance because the leaders force the players(the ones who actually are doing the heavy lifting) into situations they don’t want to be, therefore Arcane users don’t care because why would they want to help the shitty people in charge?

(Some of the leads are good, but DQ and their spouse, N (although not sure if lead) and C (not to be confused with another Arcane C who does art related Dom stuff) are NOT)

Also I’m the woke, I don’t do dom anymore since we got our new leads

[thatgoodfrdramashit]

I’m curious about you dragging C into this, since there’s two of them. Name drop which C op.

Re: Arcane Dom Drama

I’m replying to some of the messages: I want to make clear that it isn’t just about the polling. It’s: 1. Push Schedule dates and themes 2. The pinglist polling 3. New Dom lead appointments 4. New dominance programs and dominance program revisions

The new Dom team is NOT less cliquey, I’m sorry. If you aren’t a Dom lead, you are automatically wrong or looked down upon. And again maybe I’m letting my dislike of a particular lead blind me.

However this particular Dom lead: 1. Chased someone out of Arcane dominance when they were just trying to help gather materials during a large push of ours 2. Gets angry if you ever disagree with them 3. Was very rude to someone who offered to do art for a dominance push, saying that their help wasn’t needed and any art decisions “would be discussed with the artist only” (when the offerer just wanted to help propose ideas). Anyways I got off topic.

This new Dom team doesn’t seem to care about the people ACTUALLY participating. I understand that they are people too, but they are in an important (cough cough unelected) position and need to listen to the concerns of everyone without immediately taking offense and getting defensive. It’s upsetting that our Dom leads are getting mad at those of us who express their concerns over their decisions that they force upon us.

[dramarising-replacement]

Arcane dom is becoming a shit show.

Yeah, yeah, I’m ready for the “Arcane dom was already a shit show. They are bad at everything, Arcane can’t dom blah blah blah." 

Now, I still disagree with that statement, but now I just don’t think I care anymore. Our dom leads are dictating everything to us without giving us any opportunity for input. Then when we voice being upset about it, one very particular user (who actually chased a friend of mine out of Arcane Dom because of their attitude, which is a whole different post), gets very defensive and angry. Honestly, I’ve never liked them in the first place and when I found out they were a dom lead I became very uncomfortable. IDK, I feel like since some of our old dom leads stepped down it’s become very cliquey and "we are dom leads so we are better than you and we tell you what to do, if you don’t like it leave.”

I’ve never ever wanted to leave Arcane, but recent activities are making me really want to go somewhere that I think I can actually have my voice heard in dominance. Which sucks because I’m FINALLY starting to find myself a place here. 

Anyways, I wouldn’t recommend moving to Arcane anymore. I’d normally defend Arcane and encourage people to join to get into Dominance, but there’s no way to “get into” dominance with our current dom leads. Excuse me, current Dom Lead and their following (yes, same person as before). 

Maybe I’m being petty and letting my emotions cloud my judgement, but the simple facts are a lot of major changes have been happening lately and people on the forums (because a lot of this is happening in our off-site chat) aren’t being pinged or being allowed to have input. OR decisions are being made without TELLING anyone beforehand.

tldr; Arcane Dom leads aren’t letting users have input on dominance decisions such as new programs, changes and new leaders and are getting angry when people voice they are upset.

i hate tumblr

sending this on a throwaway blog so some of yall freaks don’t harass me for being an “anti anti.” but… being an actual MAP/pedo whatever you call it is 100% different than making fictional content. like if that person is ACTUALLY a pedophile, then fine. call them out, idc. but if all they did was draw fictional “problematique” shit, then shut up.. like.. i don’t like seeing my real life trauma being compared to some people fucking around and drawing fake characters who can’t feel pain/be abused. anyways rant over. tired of immature people calling out people for being “”“irl pedos!1!”“” come to find out they just made a Bad™ fanfic.

[thatgoodfrdramashit]

I mean OP literally posted content on their blog saying “Incest ships are valid” so if you’re gonna tell me you claim you don’t support cp but have that content? You’re still in the fucking wrong? Also please choke.

Plague Discord Chat call out

So a friend in plague had a bad night about 6+months ago on their discord chat. She left BEFORE she got banned/kicked to calm down. Requested another invite a day or two later. The chat mod at the time was like “we cant offer a reinvite but if you have any questions ask me.” So she did. She asked if it was a permanent ban or if she could earn a reinvite through penance. Cut to about a week later with no reply and plague going through losing multiple members through a ban wave. She notices that apparently the chat owner has changed. So she goes into the new thread…thats why she wasnt getting a reply. The chat mod who contacted her was no longer a chat mod. She lets the dust settle even more. Cut to just a couple of weeks ago. A frieend moves to plague and gets into the chat. She wants to rejoin. She sends the new chat owner a message and asks the SAME question she asked the old chat mod. Gets ignored. The mod she freaked out on? She sends an apology. She can woman up and knows when she done wrong. Also ignored. She then pings the entire discord chat staff on the thread. She publicly asks her question and publicly apologizes for that night. Again ignored. 

Plague..the flight that thinks it can ignore problems and they’ll go away? This is a call out on behalf of my friend. It will NOT go away. People have bad days and nights and sometimes react badly to given situations. My friend has apologized even though others feel SHE was the wronged party. She has more than atoned for the wrong she did. Give her another chance. 

Highly doubt this will work for my friend. But seriously, ometimes only smacking someone in the face will get them to realize they need to stop acting like an immature brat and instead handle things like an adult. Such as my friend has been trying to do.

I also call on any non plague who is reading this to poke your plague friends who are in the discord and have them voice their concerns about this. As the mods there for sure know which person is being talked about here.

As to Arcane? The flight who has allowed her to remain in their Discord even though shes had a few issues? My friend and I would like to say thank you. You are an exemplary flight and your chat mods are amazing. 

[saltybogsneak]

Vermontvampyre has the same fr name. Does the arcane discord know how this grown ass adult operates? I’m not on any discord so idk

[thatgoodfrdramashit]

Pretty sure they do, considering I talk with a few of the Arcane Discord mods and have heard mentions of their behavior being deemed inappropriate.

[dramarising-replacement]

Newsflash: you’re allowed to be a good person when someone makes a mistake, and you don’t need to be a dick about it either. This is 500% directed at the person who snatched my XXX starmap dragon off the AH when I posted it for t instead of g on accident, and is having a grand old time being petty about me not knowing the general etiquette for buy backs considering that i’ve never done it before. Chill.

[thatgoodfrdramashit]

Newsflash: No one is obligated to actually give you back your dragon just because you fucked up.

I’ve never had people return items or dragons I mispriced, and I’m sure everyone else has had similar situations as well. You can always just breed another dragon, and make your money then? Plus if it was snagged for 500T, I’m sure they’re leveling it for fodder, so try paying the fodder price back to get it back.

Long story short: whining about it isn’t going to make the situation any better, so you just need to suck it up and get over it.

Dear Lightning Dom:

Or, well, the non-JT people in Lightning Dom.

Please consider talking to JT because holy shit, yikes, especially when people are already irritated with JT’s fundraising.

[thatgoodfrdramashit]

What a train wreck. Lightning doesn’t deserve this.

I’ve been in the official Arcane slack for a pretty long time now and mostly it has been really nice. But. Recently a person came back from Wind (having previously been in arcane) and they are so annoying. “in wind we do things like this” “in wind discord we say things like this” “i think wind is better at this” and on and on and on. Please stop already, i don’t fucking care that you were in wind before *rolls eyes*

[thatgoodfrdramashit]

I find it funny that people feel like attacking formerly oof people all of a sudden in Arcane Slack? First GZ gets called out for “In Ice we did things like this” and now N for saying the same thing but with Wind?

It’s as if no one considers the fact that Arcane admits they got their dom ideas from Plague in the first place, and that people do take the ideas that people from oof propose and use them for their own?

[splatoonkirbymain]

But OP never said they where talking about dom? one of their examples implies about the Discord server itself? I’m assuming wind returning to arcane user is complaining about some part of how its run.

[thatgoodfrdramashit]

“I’ve been in the official Arcane slack for a pretty long time now“

For starters you seem to be unable to distinguish that it’s in the Arcane Slack that the Wind person is talking about it, and from what I’ve seen it’s only commentary about colloquial phrases differing in flights?

The commentary of “we do this in xyz flight” from both wind return arcane user and the former post that was the same kind of talk about GZ Ice person was made in dom channel, in regards to ideas and suggestions, so this is entirely a person salting over “Weh I don’t like ideas from other flights!!!” if anything.

Arcane profit push?

Despite the tantrums thrown by a few Arcane members, and despite enjoying the battle immensely, I was feeling bad for most of the flight that they don’t get their week of first-place benefits, especially since their fest week isn’t until September. Long time to wait to expand your lair with max efficiency, which I’m sure a lot were counting on.

So I was happy to notice they posted about a profit push in Dom Watch, but didn’t take particular notice of the date. When I did just now…it’s the same week as Light’s fest push.

Kind of bemused about why? I know the main goal of a profit push isn’t to get dom, but it still happens sometimes when no other flight’s got activities that week, and even the possibility is great motivation to train like mad. And nobody’s scheduled anything at all the whole month between Nature and Light’s fest pushes, or for that matter the week of the Light fest itself. So why go for profit during the one week you’re guaranteed not to get dom out of it? (And make slightly less net profit if Light’s raffle raises the fodder floor, for that matter.)

Unless somebody read the dates wrong, which I kind of hope is the case, as I’d love to see y'all make a go of it.

[not my flight/not my business disclaimer]

[thatgoodfrdramashit]

Because of plenty of reasons listed before, but some added extra ones.

Arcane profit pushes at least once a month, so there’s plenty of more chances at gaining first in the future for them. That being said, Arcane’s a smart thinker, and has kind of adopted what Ice was doing for a while? Fest push profit pushes, meaning you have motivation to win stuff or get badges or whatever during their fest push. Most of Arcane’s profit pushes are competitions for badges anyway, and it’s to try and build up the bank more as well, something they desperately need post AvP battle.

So lighten up a little OP, and let Arcane do what they do best: make mad bank money off of other flights.

plague v arcane

arcane used to be the “bad at dom” flight… it’s time to move over, guys, there’s a new last-place contender: plague. not in either flight but its funny how shit plague is at dom now. all their good people left and they can’t even hold a lead on the charts… these days they only have first place if they go unopposed or it’s their fest. idk about u guys but it’s just funny to watch cause of how far they’ve fallen. and yeah i’m sending to arcane too, obviously. 😂

[thatgoodfrdramashit]

Don’t speak too soon nonny. You never know what Plague might pull. Last day flips are a thing after all?

I’m not Plague flight, but I do know that when they want to fight, they put up a good fight. I think at the moment Arcane is only in the lead because of things like better raffle prizes and I get the feeling their Dom team may be more organized at the moment? It didn’t take a day for all of their stuff to be properly uploaded like Plague’s did.

Perhaps this was more a push that Plague just wasn’t ready for? Not sure.

I also don’t know if they can be considered “worst dom flight” as that wasn’t even Arcane? If anything I think people will argue that’s more the territory of Ice or Lightning now.

E from Water here. i host the new LGBT+ thread. PE of course shows up, and they’re happy with the graphics i made (phew). i started this week with a topic discussion where old and new droplets can introduce themselves and see how they’re liking WaveSat.

PE posts:

( https://imgur.com/iYGQFaP.png )

alright, cool, they gave a little bit of background and how they’re included in the LGBT+ community. apparently they’re gonna marry their fiance and move into their forever home in the next year. good for them. 

then i see that big block of censored text next to (heavy subject) and…

( https://imgur.com/LqQPWhK.png )

holy… fucking… shit. 

okay, i really want to think this is fake and they made this up so they can get more sympathy. BUT, assuming it’s real, that’s really… yikes. even with the warning i was NOT ready for that. 

i’m pretty sure stuff like that is against the rules too. one time i was in a really shitty mood and posted about how i wanted to cut myself and one of the Water mods removed it because it had “graphic material”. i’m hoping this gets deleted as well cuz this is not okay. i don’t even know how to respond to this???

but i mean… if you’re so scared of posting on public forums (even though water’s forums are small and slow), why give us all this information? literally all i said was “Say a few things about yourself and how you’re included in the LGBT+ community”, not “give me your tragic life story”.

I am glad the FR community finally realizes what a manipulative pos PE in truth is.

Frankly I knew it for years but was afraid to “out” them, because people would then rush to their defense because they are disabled and have a myriad of mental problems.

tl:dr - being disabled does not give you a free pass to be an asshole

[dramarising-replacement]

I went to PE’s profile after seeing all this salt…

(There’s more but my laptop crashed midway through taking screenshots.)

We all need to be understanding when it comes to differing levels of ability/mental health and provide allowances for people who make mistakes, especially those of us who are going through difficult times or living hard lives. Everyone is constantly learning and growing as a person and it’s okay to screw up sometimes, because we all do!

But this isn’t that. This is a grown ass adult (~30 according to his manifesto of a bio) on a casual petsim website populated mostly by teens who is trying to divest himself of responsibility and deflect all criticism by putting his problems on display. It’s juvenile and it’s disrespectful to those of us who are trying to be our best selves in spite of shitty circumstances.

I feel for you, PE - we have a similar list of issues and I know how hard it can be to get through the day dealing with debilitating mental and physical health issues - but you need to do better.
