I think the amount of censorship on here is a bit mug but also, Tumblr isn't the place to talk shit about people behind.d their backs either - or anonymously. If you take a look at their terms and service it clearly states:

Harassment.
Don't engage in targeted abuse or harassment. If anyone is sending you unwanted messages or reblogging your posts in an abusive way, we encourage you to be proactive and block the hell out of them. And if someone blocks you, don't attempt to circumvent the block feature or otherwise try to communicate with them. Just stop.

Harm to Minors.
Be thoughtful when posting anything involving a minor. Don't post or solicit anything relating to minors that is sexually suggestive or violent. Don't bully minors, even if you are one. Being a teenager is complicated enough without the anxiety, sadness, and isolation caused by bullying.

Malicious Speech.
Don't encourage violence or hatred. Don’t make violent threats or statements that incite violence, including threatening or promoting terrorism. Especially don’t do so on the basis of things like race, ethnic origin, religion, disability, gender, gender identity, age, veteran status, or sexual orientation. If you encounter negative speech that doesn’t rise to the level of violence or threats of violence, we encourage you to dismantle negative speech through argument rather than censorship. That said, if you encounter anything especially heinous, tell us about it.

And from what I saw from the VP confessions or vp gossip, a lot of it was hateful and prole even got death threats, some even got them sent to the main accounts. So, regardless... it's not allowed on tumblr either.

true i feel you

thats not that easy
as soon as u post it on vp its just a different method of harassing ppl without doing it directly at vp

You still don't get my point.

i dont know if u get mine

You are convinced Miranda is in the right for making mods delete and send out warnings for these harrassing things. What I am trying to say is that should be coming forward and speaking up about it instead of doing this, but you don't agree. I am afraid we'll never agree, but that's okay, I hope Miranda will eventually say something, even if it's just one sentence.

You're right, and I admit my lack of research has led to confusion, but that still doesn't give Miranda the right to control what happens on other sites right?

Personally isn't the same as personality. It means Epoch, as a person, think it's dumb decision.

I'm sure she can't even if she wanted. I hope people will realize that blogs like that can really hurt people (even though the "roasts" were weak af). I just hope that Miranda will not be a second Kaj u know.

No, you're right it doesn't but I think people should he aware of Tumblrs rules before they post the links. And @Solitude, not everything said on there would help anyone improve, a lot was just hurtful, death threats dont help anyone.

The tumblr page looks like it was made to tear people down which just isn't cool.

So, no I don't think the complete censorship is good but I also don't agree with it the page even being made. And I'm not saying we all have to hug each other and be friends and sunshine and fucking rainbows but we also don't have to he assholes to each other constantly just because.
