kat4888 が 投稿

I just clicked on BGC and I got a message that says I need to be invited to join that sub reddit. Anyone else?

I'm a lil heated because despite the drama BGC was one of my favorite subs.

[–]theoralstage 49 ポイント50 ポイント  (1子コメント)

Right? I mostly lurked but seeing the slow descent into madness has been sad.

[–]yoshioka_myaaaaaaaaaaaAAAAAs. 7 ポイント8 ポイント  (0子コメント)

Same here. I'm totally weirded out by this :/

[–]Souperficial 81 ポイント82 ポイント  (3子コメント)

This is honestly like back in the AIM days where you'd say something risky, panic, and immediately log off so nobody could respond to you.

[–]PM_ME_UR_NEOPETS 12 ポイント13 ポイント  (1子コメント)

or go on invisible lmao

[–]hellaradbabe 7 ポイント8 ポイント  (0子コメント)

I used to always been invisible. Am I on? Am I not? Who knows!

[–]mysticmoonbeam 6 ポイント7 ポイント  (0子コメント)

Haha that's the best analogy ever.

[–]mysticmoonbeam 24 ポイント25 ポイント  (1子コメント)

I just don't understand why asking simple questions like why the one of the sub's founders were removed from mod status would lead to something like this. It just makes the mods look suspicious.

[–]yoshioka_myaaaaaaaaaaaAAAAAs. 22 ポイント23 ポイント  (2子コメント)

I'm just so tired of that sub and the drama around it. I started using Reddit last spring/summer and BGC was the first sub I started following. It's honestly disheartening to see it drop to this. It was nice to see a mix of different opinions as opposed to the GG forums. Now it's just the same, if not worse.

I also noticed Buttercup's negative attitude before she was appointed as a mod. I'm just weirded out that she became a mod in the first place, let alone managed to throw the original mods out and hold on for so long. I wish sometimes people would just unite and unsub from BGC, just to prove a point that community matters and that the king is nothing without his people.

Also I feel bad for the girl that started that JH thread. I'm sure she didn't mean for it to get to this level, but at least it proved to us the double standards and the shadiness of the mods in full capacity.

[–]satanslefthandbitch 1 ポイント2 ポイント  (1子コメント)

I could be wrong but didn't buttercup start that JH thread?

[–]yoshioka_myaaaaaaaaaaaAAAAAs. 1 ポイント2 ポイント  (0子コメント)

No, another girl started a thread, Buttercup only replied to some comments there I believe.

[–]lynxnloki 39 ポイント40 ポイント  (16子コメント)

Jesus Christ, could this because of the mod discussion I posted?

Fuck this. I didn't even get to read the replies yet, lol.

They really don't want any community discussion. I'm ready to make a new sub. Maybe /r/BeautyGuruDiscussion? Anyone want to do it with me?

[–]asarihuntress 11 ポイント12 ポイント  (1子コメント)

Someone linked /r/beautyguruchatter in your thread.

[–]cheesy_meatballs 7 ポイント8 ポイント  (1子コメント)

I'd join!

[–]lynxnloki 1 ポイント2 ポイント  (0子コメント)

Please do! I just got it up and running if you'd like to come over :)

[–]ocicataco 3 ポイント4 ポイント  (1子コメント)

Use cachedview.com and you can see some of the replies, but I'm not sure how long that will last til the cached view shows the private page.

[–]PM_ME_UR_NEOPETS 4 ポイント5 ポイント  (3子コメント)

I didn't even get to see that thread because I've been dicking around on Sims 4 this afternoon :(

[–]Pickled_Leprechauns 4 ポイント5 ポイント  (2子コメント)

What the heck, I'm playing Sims 4, too! <3

[–]PM_ME_UR_NEOPETS 1 ポイント2 ポイント  (1子コメント)

Yessss! 👯 I just got it last week so I've been downloading a ton of custom content haha

[–]downvoterdebbie 0 ポイント1 ポイント  (0子コメント)

Me too! Was it the /r/askreddit thread that convinced you? Because thats when I decided to buy mine.

[–]qntncldwtr 2 ポイント3 ポイント  (4子コメント)

Did the replies not go to your inbox?

If you didn't mention it then someone else would have and this would have happened anyway. It's exciting watching something so garbage fall apart right before my eyes though.

I wonder what the new mods are thinking.

[–]ButtonsAndSoup 5 ポイント6 ポイント  (2子コメント)

All the replies I got on that thread no longer show up in my inbox now the thread is private

[–]qntncldwtr 0 ポイント1 ポイント  (1子コメント)

Whaaat, that's so strange. I assumed nothing could touch your inbox. I shouldn't be surprised though haha

[–]phedre 0 ポイント1 ポイント  (0子コメント)

Yeah anything that's removed or set private gets removed from your inbox.

[–]lynxnloki 0 ポイント1 ポイント  (0子コメント)

They did, but when I clicked on my inbox they just weren't there. I just wanted an open discussion, you know? I'm not even mad, just....pretty disappointed. :(

I'm so over these people and their shit.

[–]EverythingIsTak 13 ポイント14 ポイント  (0子コメント)

Lol what the fuck is happening

[–]Veronidge 15 ポイント16 ポイント  (0子コメント)

Ima need some drama channel to cover this nonsense. This is out of control

[–]blueberrysprinkles 16 ポイント17 ポイント  (0子コメント)

what the actual fuck has happened to that subreddit. it was actually one of my favourite subs, drama or not. one of the few subs I'd visit daily just to see what has been happening in the makeup world. I'd actually had good times talking to people there and whatever because no one gives a shit about beauty gurus irl. how hard is it to have your shit together when you mod, for realsies.

[–]whitealchemy 14 ポイント15 ポイント  (0子コメント)

While I imagine (or hope?) this is a temporary shut-down so they can clean shit up, I'm frustrated with how this went down. I absolutely recognize mods cannot, and should not, be available 24/7. That said, the timing feels strange given we were in the middle of a post about the weirdness re: the founders. More importantly, though, it's yet ANOTHER instance of a complete lack of communication. Couldn't they make the little message longer than, "we'll be back don't message us"? If this ends up being Butters' doing, then once again it's clear to me that despite acting like she cares, she hasn't heard a single thing that's been said to her.

[–]theoralstage 11 ポイント12 ポイント  (3子コメント)

I was wondering why I couldn't load the post I was reading! Combined with yesterday's Jontron drama, idk how much more drama I can take this week lol.

[–]RadioheadandCoffee 0 ポイント1 ポイント  (2子コメント)

What jontron drama? I stopped following his videos after he went all alt-right ranty a bit ago.

[–]theoralstage 2 ポイント3 ポイント  (1子コメント)

Yeah, he got worse. He did another livestream.

Here's a rundown of some of his new batshit comments and here's the SRD post.

[–]phedre 0 ポイント1 ポイント  (0子コメント)

Someone should write all this up for SRD.

[–]iamamsterdamedd 11 ポイント12 ポイント  (0子コメント)

It's gone from my sub list and I can't get into it either

[–]essdeekay 15 ポイント16 ポイント  (8子コメント)

I've messaged the mods asking if there's any announcements I can post here to let us know what's going on! We'll have to see what they say...

[–]ButtonsAndSoup 6 ポイント7 ポイント  (6子コメント)

Maybe Anxious Kate can help out? I would tag her but I can't remember if there was an underscore in her username. She seemed like the most willing to communicate

[–]essdeekay 5 ポイント6 ポイント  (5子コメント)

/u/anxious_kate any insight for us?

[–]Bye--Felicia 2 ポイント3 ポイント  (4子コメント)

I don't know if my app is being glitchy, but for me that account doesn't show any activity in the last 132 days or so. Maybe it's not the right username?

[–]essdeekay 2 ポイント3 ポイント  (2子コメント)

Because BGC is set to private at the moment any activity within BGC isn't showing up in user histories but I'm pretty sure it's the right user. They have a post history with makeup and without the underscore doesn't have enough karma.

[–]Bye--Felicia 4 ポイント5 ポイント  (1子コメント)

Oh yes that makes sense. I shouldn't have assumed she participated in other subreddits

[–]getjoacookie 0 ポイント1 ポイント  (0子コメント)

She said yesterday that /u/Anxiouskate is her throwaway account, so it would make sense.

[–]ButtonsAndSoup 2 ポイント3 ポイント  (0子コメント)

I'm getting that as well, but my profile also doesn't show any comments from BGC anymore. Perhaps all the comments were from there? I'm not sure if it's the right username though.

Edit: also buttercups profile no longer shows her BGC comments. I'm guessing it has something to do with that.

[–]claimsliana 2 ポイント3 ポイント  (0子コメント)

Oh smart! Hopefully you get a response.

[–]DientesDelPerro 5 ポイント6 ポイント  (0子コメント)

ya ain't never should have given constructive criticism on buttercup's videos...

also, this is WILD

[–]swerfherder 9 ポイント10 ポイント  (0子コメント)

I posted this right before butters made it private.

Is this my fault y'all?? Lol

[–]cowgirltu 6 ポイント7 ポイント  (0子コメント)

I don't even understand what the point of all this is. If they want a sub to control.... just make a new one. It seems overly dramatic to take over and then ban everyone from bgc

[–]bananahammocks805 3 ポイント4 ポイント  (0子コメント)

I have been lurking at BGC for a few months. I really liked it! I'm so sad to see the shitshow it has become.

[–]wolfheel_13 14 ポイント15 ポイント  (13子コメント)

Yep. I was reading the post about the Mod discussion, subscribed to this subreddit and then went back and BGC was private.

[–]DandelionsDandelions 6 ポイント7 ポイント  (12子コメント)

I wonder if she blocked everyone who's participated in BGCCJ. I've seen mods on r/redditgetsdrawn block users from submitting because of unrelated sub participation.

[–]smash_sh_sh 22 ポイント23 ポイント  (3子コメント)

Nah the sub went private. :)

Hopefully it's just private to sort out their mod issues and they will publicize it soon?

[–]wolfheel_13 4 ポイント5 ポイント  (0子コメント)

Let's hope. Sheesh.

[–]neesersaurus 3 ポイント4 ポイント  (0子コメント)

It now says "We'll be back soon" so hopefully that's what's happening

[–]DandelionsDandelions 0 ポイント1 ポイント  (0子コメント)

Fingers crossed.

[–]TopazRose 9 ポイント10 ポイント  (0子コメント)

Nope- I wasn't subbed to BGCCJ and it was blocked for me too.

[–]audjmess 7 ポイント8 ポイント  (5子コメント)

Apparently it will be public again soon, but who knows.

[–]Bye--Felicia 19 ポイント20 ポイント  (1子コメント)

In the comment section of posts they don't like: "please don't make this public, use modmail;" shut down the subreddit without a word "please do not modmail us" 👍🏼

[–]audjmess 6 ポイント7 ポイント  (0子コメント)

Lol those were my thoughts... you switch BGC to private and expect us not to modmail?? 🤔 They didn't even prepare us, it was just gone, so no shit we have questions!

[–]theoralstage 1 ポイント2 ポイント  (2子コメント)

http://imgur.com/ZAMDunV

Subtle change. This is only making me wonder more what's going on. 🤔

[–]ButtonsAndSoup 1 ポイント2 ポイント  (0子コメント)

Right like what is happening back there behind the screen :o

[–]audjmess 0 ポイント1 ポイント  (0子コメント)

Exactly! Just making me more nosey, like what's going down in there haha.

[–]wolfheel_13 2 ポイント3 ポイント  (0子コメント)

That's what I'm wondering too. It was within minutes that I subbed here that I saw it was private.

[–]Paperlips 6 ポイント7 ポイント  (0子コメント)

I use the relay app, and it's gone completely from my subreddit list!

[–]copshows 3 ポイント4 ポイント  (0子コメント)

I'm over it. The sub was a great snapshot of groupthink gone wrong. The mods had no morals. It was the same shit every week being discussed. What is there to miss?

[–]fuzzytwinkies 4 ポイント5 ポイント  (0子コメント)

What on earth

[–]RaggedyDoctor1 2 ポイント3 ポイント  (0子コメント)

This is so disappointing, I really liked seeing what everyone had to say but it has got out of hand, I hope it comes back and is handled better.

[–]dustypink 6 ポイント7 ポイント  (0子コメント)

What happened? Says I don't have access to the page so yeah it's private lol

[–]stephs323 2 ポイント3 ポイント  (0子コメント)

I was subbed to it and now I can't access it and it's gone from my subs list.

[–]myhatrules 3 ポイント4 ポイント  (0子コメント)

WHAT? NOOOO.

Someone needs to make a masterpost of all of this drama and submit it to /r/subredditcancer

[–]accordingtoame 4 ポイント5 ポイント  (3子コメント)

So, please tell me the AMA with Kimberly Clark isn't lost because of this fuckery?

[–]creamorlemon 4 ポイント5 ポイント  (2子コメント)

Well, it's still open in my browser, so I can try to save it (screen shot series perhaps), if you like.

[–]accordingtoame 0 ポイント1 ポイント  (0子コメント)

That would be rad, thank you! That would be really upsetting to lose, I think as a whole, since I feel like it was beneficial to the greater community. If it could be "moved" to MUR it would be rad.

Someone let me know there was a cached copy, so I was able to save it to a PDF on my computer. Here's the cached copy!

It says i cannot view this subreddit contact the moderators and ALL my inbox of replies and posts have disappeared. What the actual fuck??

[–]downvoterdebbie 0 ポイント1 ポイント  (0子コメント)

That's normal. When a sub is private, unapproved submitters can't see your comments/submissions in that private sub, even on your profile page.

[–]Aikaterinaa 0 ポイント1 ポイント  (0子コメント)

Disappointing to say the least.

[–]LittleMissMel 0 ポイント1 ポイント  (0子コメント)

I just noticed the group is no longer in my subs. I only joined Reddit a week ago and was new to that group, but I was removed from the group as well. Any suggestions on BGC groups besides this one?
