i totally respect fest rules regarding anything that they deem inappropriate, however, shouldn't you mention these rules BEFORE the prompting period instead of suddenly implementing them after claiming has already started? or at least give time to the prompter to modify the prompts like other fests do? ngl it lowkey feels like the mod is unfair and maybe even biased to certain ship(s). i will respectfully discontinue my participation in this fest. hoping for transparency for the next season

While I appreciate you looking out for your fellow prompters, I mentioned in the thread that I originally left them in for this exact reason, that I clearly knew it hadn't been mentioned in the Carrd and that was why it was left up for so long. But I chose to listen to the concerns brought up to me, and I apologize if you felt like it wasn't handled correctly! But I don't think it's fair to say I haven't been transparent when I clearly stated everything that happened 🩷 I understand if it wasn't an answer you were hoping for, but I had been completely transparent about the whole situation!

Also, I understand you're upset, but no reason to accuse me of being biased towards certain ships! This shows me you read the entire thread I shared of me explaining the situation, yet cherry picked what information suited your accusations. I was fully transparent about the concerns brought up to me, how I handled it, and why I did. If you genuinely were upset and felt wronged, DMs for the fest were open (and they were on my personal account until yesterday) so there is no shame in reaching out to discuss things with me like the others who chose to bring up their concerns did. I'm willing to listen and discuss! If you want to bring something up with the fest next time, don't hesitate to reach out and talk about it, instead of ranting anonymously here 🩷
