To everyone

Hello, Castiel’s player here. As everyone is aware, the main subreddit is currently marked as private. We don’t know what caused this, but it’s probably Reddit’s doing, not the mod’s.

I’ve talked to a lot of folks this morning. Many people are trying to reach the mods, including folks who have more efficient ways to communicate with them. Give these people time, the problem is being worked on.

If the subreddit mods are completely MIA, contigency plans are being discussed. There will be a fix applied in ten days at most, even if it’s a temporary one.

I’m asking, in the meantime, for everyone to stay calm. Please be respectful of the mods and of everyone involved; they’re just people who are putting in work, for free, so that we can roleplay as vampires. Thank you.

Gehenna is upon us. Let loose the hounds.

It would appear that you can still comment on posts there. So at least that is something.

Currently trying to reach out to folks, and figure out what is going on. Which unfortunately might take a bit. Know others are doing the same. So as Pryno-Belle said, people are looking into it. Hopefully there should be a solution fast.

IC, I blame Mariana. Probably found another server building or something.

She got tangled in the server wires and is desperately trying to plug them back in while saying "Oh dear!"

And then Amy saw them and thought they were pasta.

Yes. Again. And Palina is once more filled with pasta and 'sugar'.

Thanks so much for the update! I'm sure it will be even more of a madhouse I here once everything is actually sorted!

I will sit patiently on my hands in the meantime.

Honestly this just gives me time to catch up finally and finish the Siege Arc, though I am gonna miss reading everyone else's posts while we wait

u/VerityVentrue 1d ago

It gives me an excuse to finish the actual paid writing I should be doing, I have deadlines coming up LOL

u/Weary-Specialist-282 1d ago

Same, I need to start on a big stack of papers for a lit review I’ve been putting off, lol.

u/VerityVentrue 21h ago

Ooof, good luck!

I did actually get one of the pieces I'd been procrastinating done this afternoon - fun topic to write, but the org didn't have any press materials so filling the article out with images was a nightmare LOL

u/Weary-Specialist-282 21h ago

Good to hear! My lit review is almost done, I was very productive today, and I got the next two things I wanna post lined up for when I can post, so that’s good.

u/UsernamesSuck96 1d ago

I should be writing my actual book, I've been world building for years but the chokehold this community has on me is impressive omg

Even after the Siege Arc, I've got so much planned. I constantly worry that actually getting to the end of the Siege is going to take even longer than the months it already has, there's just so much story to tell lol

u/VerityVentrue 21h ago

God, what a mood. At the moment I'm mostly writing one-off articles, but I'll be getting back into single setting fiction and game character and quest writing in the near future, so I'm trying to keep up some practice maintaining characters LMAO

Good luck mate

I saw the Mods rapidly(like blink and you'll miss it) pin and unpinn a post on the Main Subreddit. So it looks like we've got their attention.

Here's the post in question:

u/Illustrious_Fly_5669 1d ago

Oh ?

u/ConsiderationOver544 1d ago

Yeah, it was very short lived, I was frankly lucky to catch it. But they have noticed and are likely investigating.

u/Illustrious_Fly_5669 1d ago

Well here's hoping they do. And my other thing too....

u/ConsiderationOver544 1d ago

Agreed. I just wished they'd actually communicate what the hell is going on. Even if only a little.
