Can we also talk about how this site has been slow the past few days? Many people reported delays in likes/dislikes on the forums, as an example, and it's taking me up to a few minutes for the website to load at times and this really makes no sense at all considering the maintenance day already happened. Considering the money this website makes, I'd expect its servers to be better cared for and more functional >:(
I'd also like to mention the amount of bugs this site has when I try to edit outfits on mobile. It took me entire hours to make this catboy look because it simply did not work.
@ Chris turn on your location i just wanna talk
I just started playing yesterday and I use my laptop and it's SO SLOW. There are many times when the site actually just errors out and won't load at all unless I close out my whole browser and re-open it. it's ridiculous. I heard ab this site on tik tok and I was super excited to join so I'm very disheartened by all the issues people are talking ab here. I love the premise for this site and all the ppl seem so cool but god does it need some work.

but yeah, i would say Normally it is not this slow, but the site has hiccups every now and then (goes down entirely sometimes too). these past few days have been especially bad, though last week was fine?

I think the influx of people who came here from tiktok may be responsible for the slowness of the site. However that’s just a theory. But I did notice an incredibly huge amount of players join and a lot of them don’t seem to be bots, which is what I thought at first considering there’s talk about a rigged SM election.

19, she/he pronouns ONLY. Barely on the site anymore so don’t bother. Please don’t interact with me if we aren’t friends, it makes me incredibly uncomfortable and anxious.

I also had issues with paypal! I was trying to spend $40!!!! I wasted 5x of those stupid ring artifacts for buying diamonds. I accepted that the universe didn't want me to give this site money but it's interesting to know that other people have been having this issue too. I am also interested in WHY we lost 9 hours of voting? Will that happen again? What happens when it glitches out longer for another election? I'd be pretty pissed if I showed up to my polling place irl on election day and nobody was there!! And don't even get me started on the fake accounts. That's like the one rule TB actually enforces but now it doesn't matter at all I guess. Bad democracy

A good few months ago my life imploded on me and I took a break from BL. The break kept becoming longer and longer because I questioned whether I wanted to even come back, because I had had more than one awful experience where it seemed that despite the best efforts of the FGs a lot of wonderful people in the community such experiences would continue to happen. Bimboland will always be an environment where harassment goes ultimately unpunished and thus continues.

And the FGs do put a lot of effort into their work which is wonderful and Chris does not deserve that. So do the SWs and designers. These people are the only thing keeping this site afloat, Chris deserves none of it, and yet he has the audacity to even consider asking them to do work for him without pay in one turn and then dismiss every bit of actual insight about how to actually fix this site in the next.

It's infuriating. Honestly I decided to come back on BL because I enjoy designing clothes as an easy artistic outlet. I can't enjoy the grinding because the game mechanics are boring and laggy, I can't enjoy community interaction because it's like playing pretty rock fancy paper oops is that a gun please don't shoot me I have no insurance. I would love having just this one enjoyable thing stay as an enjoyable thing, but damn does Chris make it hard.

i still dont have anything to add to this thread as others have said it already but im replying again anyway as i want this thread to stay in the hot in the forum so other users are more likely to see it, especially those unaware of some of these issues due to not actively using the forum.

the people who put actual hard work into this website get no compensation for it and team bimbo is continuously ignoring the needs of their userbase (not sure if anyone has mentioned the website changing to 16+ despite no one at all wanting that)

i think the rule change to 16 was honestly just a way of covering their own asses about the fact a lot of 16/17 year olds were joining after hearing about bl from other sites. it clearly wasnt a thought through change (given that explicitly sexual usernames are still allowed and the 18+ section of the shop isnt even restricted) so the only reason for it that makes sense is just chris going "i dont want to delete 16/17 year olds accounts since some of them will ask their parents to buy them senatorships/diamonds/b$, better make the site 16+ instead"

First, folks, I would like to thank everyone for stay polite here and I think we should be open to criticism in order to improve. As a Forum Guardian, I also have my peace of mind to share. In the past, we got a bunch of FGs that deal with things in a very personal way. Some problematic posts "disappear" without any trace, some people are baited and bashed at the forums and punished when fightback, etc... So, when I became an FG, my first step was trying to correct those issues. Both FWN and Cum Dumpster join me, and we set rules. Today, everything is decided by the whole group over votation, we register our actions in or server. cowboy and Dye96 joined us later and I couldn't ask for a better team. Everyone put a lot of energy to make this a free, but yet, healthy environment.

That being said, our tools are very limited and we lack a user's term. Toki, I, and the others are working in order to fix this and we're adjusting our rules to deal with repeat offenders, following the tendencies of serious sites like youtube, for instance. However, our power is limited, and while we could change our politics. We're also not heard and while I don't like to call people out, I also feel that we're letting many of u down and that's why I want to make this clear: Only the Team Bimbo had the tools required for perma-ban some users that insist in spread hate toward the community and push people over their limits, risking their mental-health and spreading harmful misinformation about serious stuff. Meanwhile, we still trying to do it in the best way and if we look strict, it's only because we're interested in makes this community a better place where people could enjoy the diversity and feel safe.

I love the new outfit slots and Toki is doing a really great job, I'm looking forward to keeps working with her and she also does her very best every day, but I think we must have some fixed, registered, and impartial protocol to deal with those people because we're attracting several people interested in cause drama, tr0lling over us and use us as some sort of sick entertainment show, which is why I would also ask you all to not give those people fuel. Let's keep together and work as a friendly community that loves fashion, put aside our difference just this once, and team up to fix this: Forum Guardians should be in contact with TB, we need a strike policy that could lead to perma-ban in the most extremal cases and not let the mean-intended persons have the upper hand because their behavior can't meet any major consequence despise the fact that we're all tired from this.

Love you, guys. Poison Black.
