it's creepy to think about that and brings up some especially um racist connotations when you look at his in game avatar sweetasnuts and how he is characteristized :/
So.. not only is he a careless capitalist but also a possible racist and colonizer? Just when I thought things couldn't get any worse about this guy. It's literally insane how no one brought that up.

I'm brand new to this site but it was still so disheartening to see the lack of care.. I've seen too many sites go downhill because people don't want to put in the effort to keep it going, and this site honestly has so much potential !!!

I just snooped around the site some more and it seems like the Instagram for the cafe's last post was on November 23, "Blighty Nerds" site is down, "Blighty Arts" is supposedly a donation site to get women of color out of poverty (although I did not see any proof of that actually happening), "What's On London" is down as well it seems, so is "Secret Luxury" and "Immersive Music." This man's only functioning sources of income are this site and the cafe and he STILL can't do shit.

I'm in love with how out of all those projects, which probably had decent intentions, the sole survivor was this Bimbo website. Poetic.

NGL the "Blighty arts" thing sounds very fishy to me. If he's running a charity but isn't providing any proof of the charity doing what it's supposed to do he could just be taking all the money donated for himself or it could be some sort of money laundering scheme. Either way, it just isn't sitting right with me. I didn't know such a shitty person ran this site honestly

Exactly what I'm thinking. It says "video testimonials coming soon" but I legitimately don't see any.

Just deleted a post to keep this discussion health and polite. While I understand that you're all upset, let's keep this thread serious and avoid making jokes because those kind of behavior will not help any form of comunication.
Everyone is free to talk about how they feel, let's just not joke about it neither go so much far from the original subject: Bimboland.

Since everyone's feeling like the owner isn't that much interested in improv the game, I think it's natural to make question about his other activities, so I'll let it go for now, but there's no need to go further on it. Since I'm also a student of Social Communication (Radio, Television and Internet) I really expect that he perceive how important is to listen to the clients and site users and pay attention to their feedbacks and also to mind some basic values, for his own good.

Those days, things spread real fast over internet and this kind of reputation could ended up affecting his other business, specially when several users seem to have found us across other medias, like twitter, tik tok, etc... So, I hope that he listen to us this time and start fixing what is needed to be fixed.

Since we're already discussing this, I guess that we should start listen some possible corrections for our troubles and keep a positive tone. I'll start. Until now, we have:

- Make Bimboland 18+ Again or make it appropriate for minors, with implies to change the text behind Bimbo Sucide, Fuckbuddies, the Shop Section under 18+ and the drug addiction references.
- Better communication between Team Bimbo, State Ministers and Forum Guardians.
- A Strike Policy to deal with repeat offenders, that could lead to permaban in extreme situations.
- New elections for State Ministers. And I think that we should point that just one day isn't enough time for that sort of thing.
- Rise the level required to vote (probably level 18, since it work just fine for the shop).
- Fix the block system, so the users didn't receive notifications over it. Also, hide the posts of blocked people over the forums.
- Spoiler system for forums. And, if not possible, at least tools that allow us tpo change the font color to white, so we must highlight to see potentially trigering content.

Did I forget something? Someone else had anything else to suggest?

I think we should first at least grab the owner's attention before jumping towards change right away. It's just too much of a false hope kind of thing; listing all of these things might give us something to hold onto only to face failure. Right now, I think boycotting/striking is the best way to go before we list out what we want changed. 

Also, I just wanted to add... I understand your need to protect, but please keep in mind that the things we are finding are clearly showing Chris isn't really a good person. I'm not sure about you, but as someone who is a person of color (specifically West Asian, so the Hindu/India mentions I found earlier are already a BIG set-off for me), I do not really feel like being kind towards someone who sees me as a joke/donation project/etc. I understand that being kind is probably best for most situations, but it's really hard to ask this from someone who's kind of facing microaggressions.
