Hello Atheista!! I have quite a few thoughts right now, so PLEASE stick with me as i word-vomit for a minute <3

First of all I would like to say thank you for electing me and I hope to make you proud as your SM for this term!! But while i am grateful for those who did vote for me, I can’t help but feel like I didn’t actually win. Finding out that only senators would be allowed to vote (with no official word from admin) has been EXTREMELY disappointing and upsetting to me. I was so excited to run against princesspixie, she had such a great campaign and I was really interested to see how the election would turn out! But to win an Atheista SM election with 11 votes TOTAL (one of them being myself!!!) feels ridiculous to be quite honest. For comparison, our previous SM election had 133 votes total. I think that myself, pixie, and all others who ran for SM in other states deserved a FAIR election where everyone was allowed to vote. Only paying senators being allowed to vote just takes the whole fun out of the booby politics simulator (or what fun was left after the shitshow this website has been!) Which brings me to my next point!!

I’m having a hard time justifying monetarily supporting this website.  The main reason being I simply hate the decisions being made and the direction this website is going.  I’ll keep my senatorship through my term so that you all still have an SM, but buying diamonds is the issue for me. I would be 100% ok never buying diamonds again, BUT I don't want to disappoint you all!!! I know that gifting is like the biggest and most important tool an SM has. Atheista has been such a lovely little corner of this bizarre website. You all have been nothing but wonderful and I don't want you to feel like you’re losing out or being punished because I'm unhappy with the website! So I hope you understand how much I am torn right now. I just wanna get a feel for everyone’s opinions before making any huge decisions!

Which is why I am asking you to let me know how you feel in this post! I’d like to have an open discussion to get everyone’s thoughts and opinions on the matter. Essentially I’d like to know if you are in favor of me hosting contests with no rewards (I’d still make banners and pick winners and stuff) OR  if you are in favor of me hosting contests with rewards as usual. PLEASE speak your mind and let me know how you feel!!!!!  

Thanks everyone <3 Let’s hope this term is a good one!!!

i definitely don't want to monetarily support a site owner who actively hates his userbase, but i can't judge others for what they want to do with their money. i especially won't complain if that money is going into prizes for other users lol

either way i'll enter as many prize-less contests and as many prized contests as possible (especially after becoming a bimbuck billionaire during this craze). it seems like the dressup portion of this site is the most drama-free and its the only part of the site i've been able to enjoy lately

I feel as though everyone's preference (especially civilians like myself) would be rewards as per the usual but in light of the recent downward spiral the site politics are in visa vi the owner, I actually would prefer to participate without the diamond reward, at the very least for this next prime ximbo term if not indefinitely if it continues this way

Totally agree with Timothee Chatroulette that the dressup events are WAY more fun than engaging on some of the forums here^
we'd still very likely participate without a prize! Especially if you were still to make banners <3
thanks for asking for our opinions on the matter. I definitely won't be paying any money atm

the absolute gall and insanity chris (idfc whether he wants to be referred to as not, he can go shove that) has of expectations for the SM’s are completely ridiculous. i abhor the fact that you and the other sm’s have to use your own items/currency to create engagement for his own benefit ( and the fact that you already pay for senatorship to even run/become sm ). while ofc the rewards are the big incentive, its not worth footing more money into this site then you already plan to. 

im sure all of us so appreciate you audrey, and the fact you’ll continue to have senatorship until the end of term so we aren’t left without an sm just shows what kind of person you are, and tysm for thinking of us. banners are already a reward! and your banners are absolutely stunning <33

I would like to opt out of all diamond rewards moving forward, even if you decide to continue to give them to others

Honestly anything to show how much we hate what Chris is doing. Losing out on extra diamonds sucks, however if Chris continues to get money from this site he absolutely will see that as support no matter the reason, so I would be more than alright forgoing diamond prizes and only getting banners in the future.

oh and I'd also like to say I had NO CLUE that the diamond prize amounts were actually paid for by a player???
I always figured that was handled by a dev... unless I'm misunderstanding something but regardless I definitely have a much much deeper appreciation for everything you've done and will do remaining term as SM and as a player.
What a dumpster fire this is turning into...  again my vote (ESPECIALLY now) is no rewards!!!

I love u so much audrey!! congrats on your win, even if citizens weren't allowed to vote for this election, i have a feeling you would've won anyway <3 you had my vote ;>

I 100% support you if you don’t want to buy anymore diamonds. I say this as a higher level player with 10k Ds saved up, so I recognize that diamond rewards from contests probably mean less to me than they do for newer players, but to those players i ask u to pls consider: audrey makes the most adorable banners and they are a lovely reward on their own + there are other ways to save up diamonds without anyone spending money on them (most of mine are from dueling because every win gives you at least one diamond, i think you can also find Ds randomly while voting in fights/debates?)

The decision to exclude citizens from SM voting is bonkers--taking away previously free features from the site is not the right way to encourage senatorship lmfao. And that doesn’t even touch on the mess of the forum + treatment of site volunteers. I gladly canceled my senatorship as soon as I knew I didn’t need it to be sm ! I think I’d opt out of diamond rewards even if you offer them for this term’s contests. And if I host any contests this term, I will be offering alternative rewards to diamonds like banners and art (an idea i’m snatching from pollyx even though their art is a far greater prize than mine <3), might fuck around and host some citizen-only contests too. chris might not care about citizens but the community does >:3c

I wouldn’t judge you for buying diamonds either, if that’s what the fishies want--it’s not your fault that SMs have to pay for all the prizes they give out <3 I appreciate the way you’re taking feedback on this and I trust you to navigate this the best that you can. You’re an amazing SM and we’re so lucky to have you, thank you for being willing to represent the fish gang even with the underlying bs. you’re the best :>

I never enter contests because of the rewards, I always enter because it's fun and I like playing dress up. Just getting a banner would be more than enough for me and I really would not like to recieve diamonds moving forward through Chris' term even if there were still diamond prizes on the table. I cannot in good faith buy or recieve diamonds knowing that the money used to pay for those diamonds is going towards a man who hates his playerbase and is doing everything in his power to make everyone's lives miserable. 

I will continue to particpate in contests as much as I am able with or without rewards. I would highly encourage you to quit as much monetary support for Chris as possible.

And though I appreciate you looking out for Atheista and keeping your senatorship, maybe, going forward (and this is more a very broad statement not neccesarily directed at you), people quitting their senatorships and leaving nations without an SM might be a good (extreme) way to go? Just to show how much we really don't like Chris' direciton with this website. Again, this isn't directed at you, I'm just putting it out there.

Also, as a last thought, I didn't know that voting for SM's was now gatekept for only senators? During the voting phase, the Ximboland website was inaccessible for like a day for me and I didn't know what was happening. I'm sure these things are connected and it really does make me sad that I couldn't participate in even voting for my own state :c

Congrats on the win Audrey, it is a shame that not all bimbos are allowed to vote. The end of democracy I suppose. As for contests without rewards, fire away darling. I'd still participate <3
