PSA regarding recent staff removal
-
Due to recent events on LewdChat, there have been multiple misunderstandings and rumours regarding the removal of WedgeAntilles/Dylan from staff. As a result, our team has come together to write this post to inform you all and explain the reasoning behind his removal – we hope this post stops any more transgressions regarding this topic.
Staff on LewdChat have spoken with Dylan numerous times regarding his moderation on the site; due to the multiple occasions, Dylan needed to follow staff protocol. Dylan was made aware several times that his way of moderating by banning users with no explanations would not be tolerated. There have also been incidents where Dylan would share private staff discussions within main channels – fully aware that this was against the rules. Due to his failure of complying to the regulations all staff have to follow, it was decided in February to remove Dylan from our team as we believed it was in the best interests of LewdChat.
However, when he and another staff member faced an issue with one another during his time as staff, it did not go unnoticed. The actions of the incident led to consequences that reflected the severity of the incident that all staff members agreed upon – which Dylan was able to contribute towards. The following sanction on the other staff member was to be demoted from their current position in staff. It was considered to remove them from LewdChat staff altogether; this was discussed in January of this year. Dylan had every chance to voice his opinion regarding whether he ever felt treated unjustly and wanted further sanctions to be put into place.
Upon his removal in February, Dylan breached many rules we expect all users to follow. He ranged from attempting to start unnecessary arguments in main channels completely unprovoked to hurtful words being used against staff and even cases of racist remarks regarding our team and finally adding further accusations to what was already handled in the previous month. When asked to provide evidence of the other allegations Dylan had voiced, he failed to comply and show proof of said misconduct – this therefore deemed only as speculations.
Dylan’s behaviour was not tolerated, and he received the same sanctions any user would pay for, such as kicking from the channel and being muted for an x amount of time to ultimately a ban. After Dylan received bans, he made numerous ban evasions and mistreated several staff members again. All of our staff followed the necessary protocol put into place; there was no malice from any staff member concerning the consequences our team had put into place for Dylan.
We want to acknowledge the users who take their time to read this post; our team felt it was necessary to be transparent with you all and explain the situation to you as this is a community our staff members care for. If you have any questions regarding this post, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Thank you for formalizing a summary. It was discouraging to see staff argue in public channels and hopefully, there are controls to shut those down faster in the (unlikely but possible) event it might happen again. I feel for those who were new to the site on those days; main is fast & confusing on a good day. Looking forward to consistent & reliable monitoring; I know it's a thankless job, but someone has to do it so the rest of us can play safely.

The initial admission to sharing private sex convos with others in an effort to harass me.
-
-
The second admission to breaking the rules of harrassment and bullying.

I have many more records proving the sexual assault that took place and the campaign of character assault that followed. Many are long and part of #staff and I'm trying to be calm here. But I will legitimately post them. She is a sexual predator. Idc about me. It's about the principal.
-
My words are not unprovoked. I meant everything I said against her. I mean worse.
-
I followed staff protocol by bringing up the sexual assault months ago, and Lana was knocked down from admin to mod because of it. Then nothing changed and she was reinstated whilst I was banned for coming forward with my story
-
This is disgusting and you should all be fucking ashamed of yourselves

"There have also been incidents where Dylan would share private staff discussions within main channels – fully aware that this was against the rules. Due to his failure of complying to the regulations all staff".
If you double check your staff acknowledgement message in staff, you will notice you gave me explicit permission to do this. I'm sorry I got catfish down from 70 a day to 7.

"Dylan had every chance to voice his opinion regarding whether he ever felt treated unjustly and wanted further sanctions to be put into place."
Yes and I said eject the sexual predator
-
"unprovoked to hurtful words being used against staff and even cases of racist remarks regarding our team and finally adding"
Everything I said to her was deserved, and i actually cannot believe you just accused me of being racist. I am actually at a loss for words at that one.
-
" he and another staff member faced an issue with one another during his time as staff, it did not go unnoticed. "
Idk the rape went pretty unnoticed, notice how we are still noticing it?
-
"Dylan breached many rules we expect all users to follow."
Like don't screenshot and share private convos with others ????
-
How much more should I dissect?
-
"When asked to provide evidence of the other allegations Dylan had voiced, he failed to comply and show proof of said misconduct – this therefore deemed only as speculations." As everyone can see from the evidence above, I had voiced my sexual assault and had made my concers to staff, alas I was silenced. In sorry this spilled over into the public, but my hand was forced. I do not tolerate sexual predators
-
If anyone has any questions I am an open book.
