We launched October 31st, 2011. Naturally, Crat B was displeased with me. Despite me being totally inactive for quite a while, and it being clear it was over and I had left already haven chosen Zelda Dungeon Wiki over Zelda Wiki, Crat B was furious at my "treason" (they loved that word) and claimed to speak on behalf of all the Zelda Wiki staff. I was told, literally at the same moment he was berating me, that while the others were upset I joined an "enemy" wiki too, no one had given him permission to do this and he acted on his own without there being a consensus yet and he had been told he was not the appropriate person to be the one to talk with me given his history of being biased against me. Didn't matter to him, he thought he was above everyone else so he made pompous demands acting as if he was being generous and merciful. | We launched October 31st, 2011.

He demanded I resign from my place at Zelda Dungeon Wiki as a founding admin and insisted that instead I return as a Zelda Wiki patroller. And only as a patroller. He said I was unsuitable to ever be an admin again. And I would never be trusted with it. In the exact same speech he was trying to convince me to leave Zelda Dungeon in. Yeah, he never was regarded as particularly compelling person. Always the worst choice to speak on behalf of the staff. Not that he realized that. He thought he was the most important person on Earth and that others are foolish to doubt his glory. I called him on his hypocrisy and his lies. Not telling him how I knew he was lying, just repeatedly countering every lie he told with a retort about how disingenuous he was and that I knew it was a lie. And never gave him, or anyone else an answer and I ignored his ultimatum. I just kept working on the Zelda Dungeon Wiki and never said I was formally leaving at Zelda Wiki to anyone. Within a couple years he and the rest of the Masterminds were removed from the wiki by Jess. I heard some stayed on to help normally as regular staff rather than having special status anymore, though I may have misremembered that. Anyway, thanks Jess. I firmly believe that was the right decision. It solved most of Zelda Wiki's problems. I just wish you did that two years earlier when I warned you about all this in the first place and prevented all of this. But it was too late as it was, damage done and it couldn't be undone. | He demanded I resign from my place at Zelda Dungeon Wiki as a founding admin and insisted that instead I return as a Zelda Wiki patroller. And only as a patroller. He said I was unsuitable to ever be an admin again. And I would never be trusted with it. Acting as if even this much was him being unreasonably generous and that I should grateful to be allowed into such a lowly position I really had no place being in at all in any case.

Also, not long after this, the Zelda Wiki staff wised up and realized Admin C was, actually, pretty horrible, and she was finally gone too, left in a mindless rage over something petty about staffing choices that in this case, were not really a big problem and she was wildly overreacting. She only lasted that long because that newer bureaucrat had protected her for so long, in an unrequited crush she took advantage of. The worst people were all gone. Zelda Wiki was free to recover from its dark days. They offered to take me back now that everyone who despised me was gone and no one was left who would fight them on my return. With apologies for not believing me about these people too. I had considered it. But I was never coming back. I was violated here, severely traumatized, and no one cared that it was happening, and so many willingly believed obvious lies about events they personally witnessed and could have seen were untrue and too many refused to do anything to stop it or even admit it was happening. I had to move onto a better place, where I was actually respected. So I refused to return. | Also, not long after this, the Zelda Wiki staff wised up and realized Admin C was, actually, pretty horrible, and she was finally gone too, left in a mindless rage over something petty about staffing choices that in this case, were not really a big problem and she was wildly overreacting.
