Sadly, KirinDave has decided the stress tumblr causes him outweighs the positives and he will be password locking his blog in the next 24 hours.

Here's his original goodbye post.


For those who don't get the chance to see it before the blog is password locked, I've pasted the contents below the cut. I hope we can all wish Dave the best. 

If you don't already know about sassytail's appreciation project for Dave, I encourage you to go check it out and leave him some kind words through that. 

Welp! I’m out!

( Dave's Farewell )

 The event is over, and I'd like to give naniroxy , wayward_will , cybergramblr ,nevertrustakobold , andstr11fe  a HUGE thank you for participating!  I hope people will go comment on the stuff they like, and continue posting more content in the future!

((note: you are still welcome to post things for yesterday's prompt, though posting for today's prompt is preferable)) 

To kick things off and get people other than me posting, this week is going to be the ‘Five Days of Fandom’ event!

Every day we’ll celebrate a different aspect of creativity in fandom. Everyone is encouraged to participate however they can; whether that be a quick doodle, a ficlet, a random idea they think would be cool if someone else did something for, etc. I know a lot of people don’t have much time to spare, so there’s no minimum requirement at all. As long as you participate, that’s awesome!

Each day is based around one activity like 'fanfic', but if you're not a writer (for example) there are other ways you can participate! I’ll post some ideas for what you could do for each one in the day-specific posts, but you’re totally welcome to do whatever you think would fit. Just tag it as ‘fivedaysoffandom’ along with whatever other tags apply, and say what day you’re doing it for.

Everything that gets created for this event will be added to a masterpost list at the end of the week, and all the people who participate will get a huge thank you from me.

The prompts will be the same across the yogscastfans/yogsfriends/yogshipping communities, so if you get an idea, please just post it wherever it’s appropriate.

Tuesday Fanfic

  If you'd like to come introduce yourself, there's a post over on the general yogscast comm. Come say hi!

A list of those included:
• KirinDave
• Lyinginbedmon
• VGToolBox
• Deltasquid
• Any member of Chaosville not already listed
• KirinDave’s Resonant Rise server inhabitants
• Area 11
• KaeyiDream
• Beckii Cruel
• Daltos
• Ravs
• MintyMinute
• Fiona
• DeadWorkersParty

(please leave a comment here if you’d like to suggest other people who might be suitable for inclusion)

Posting Etiquette
• All fics should be put under a cut or be hosted on another site like Ao3. No exceptions.
• No NSFW or shipping content here. That can be posted to the yogshipping community.
• Put warnings for content above the cut if any apply.
• Things like blood/gore/self harm/death should be put under a cut
• Ridgedog and Sjin are both sensitive topics due to the actions of the men in question. Content including their characters is permitted, however we do ask that you put content involving them under a cut, and warn for their inclusion above the cut.

Conflict Etiquette
• We all mess up sometimes. Be reasonable when you approach people or are approached; we all want a friendly and encouraging environment here.
• If someone does something you disagree with, please try bringing it up to them in a calm manner through personal messages or comments on their post. Please do not just yell at them or call them an awful person; offer a solution or alternative action that would satisfy you.
• If someone comes to you with a complaint, please listen to and consider what they have to say and where they’re coming from. They might have a point or they might not, but assuming they’re just there to attack you isn’t going to help anyone.
• If someone is repeatedly causing offense, please bring it to a moderator’s attention via a private message so we can look into the issue and try to sort things out. Vague negative or callout posts won’t solve anything.

F.A.Q

Q: Who can join?
A: Currently, the comm is set so anyone can become a member and all members have posting access. However, this comm was created largely so people dissatisfied with the Tumblr fandom community could have a place to convene. 

Q: Who runs this comm?
A: Currently, the only moderator is Ceranovis. If this becomes unmanageable for me, I'll look into getting additional mods. 

Q: There's something I want to post, but I'm not sure if I should post it here.
A: Send Ceranovis a pm and explain what it is you'd like to post. I'll get back to you as quickly as I can.
