Viva La Revolucion! ![]() Kaycee (kayceeisms) has been demodded for reasons that will not be disclosed. Kaycee, arguably one of cB's most valuable contributors of her time, has been stripped of her position of People Staff. Why? We don't know, but that's what we're here for!End of discussion. Since Kaycee's demotion, the administrators and head staff's only justification for firing her has been "because discussing it would tarnish her reputations further." I can't really come out and say it, but Kaycee did something really stupid, and made a bunch of us really angry... I wouldn't want to further tarnish her reputation. However, this cannot be a legitimate reason for not telling the reason for Kaycee's demotion to either the community or even fellow staff members.Because they apparently don't give two dimes about Kaycee! Not even one! You're right AC. I don't give two dimes about Kaycee. I don't even give ONE dime about her! -- IT CAN'T BE DICUSSED, SO SHHHHHHHH..... Why so defensive, Ms. Kandi? Hiding something? ![]() This is not the only situation where staff members behind the demodding of Kaycee have avoided the subject to be discussed. BTW..this is a problem within the mods. You really don't need to be getting involved, we don't need any added drama. This is not just a problem among the moderators; if we have some corrupted staff members (as well as loss of good moderators), it will inevitably affect the whole community. It's common sense. This just shows that they don't want anyone else getting involved who could possibly see that there's something wrong with the picture.-- Join the effort to persuade the admins and head staff to reveal the real reason why Kaycee was demoted! Protest against Kaycee's demotion! If they won't listen to fellow staff members, surely they would yield if the community becomes involved as well. Sign here to add to the petition against Kaycee's demotion and make some noise!

If it's been dropped, there's no use speculating over it. They've already told the community their stand on the situation. There's no use for topics like these. You should know that. Let things be.

Do you even care, Rachael?
You, yourself, were not even told a real reason as to why Kaycee was demodded. If it's been dropped, there's no use speculating over it. They've already told the community their stand on the situation. There's no use for topics like these. You should know that. Let things be. There's no use of letting it pass either. This is no ordinary situation; if there was nothing wrong with Kaycee's demotion, the other staff member's wouldn't be in such a rush to calm everyone down and continuously advise everyone to not get involved. In any other situation, would they have they acted like this?

I do believe, however, that if the mods have come to this conclusion, then it must have been something really big. I support their decision, but I think that if it was one mistake, they should be lenient and give her a second chance. |

In any other situation, would they have they acted like this? It's a matter of keeping the community in check. Do they want to make things more hectic than this? Look at the way most of the staff members have reacted (anonymous shoutouts is a perfect example). If they reacted that badly, how do you think the community would? |

they'd probably make something up because the truth doesn't stand as a good enough reason to fire her, I wouldn't doubt it if they did. staff doesn't communicate... so hell if anyone knows the truth... why not make some sh*t up and claim it as the reason she was fired? |

I belive personaly that anytime a staff member is removed from staff that the population of cb should know what happened. She was on people staff.And this should have been disclosed to us people unless it was seriosuly that bad. |

I also wanted to note James's efforts. He personally gave up his position as moderator to send a message to the admins and head staff on behalf of Kaycee.
James (I Viddy Horrorshow) has stepped down from his People Staff position. James (I Viddy Horrorshow) has been removed from People Staff. Who, by the way, did not at all respond well to his resignation. Oh, be quiet. You're one to talk. As if you have any idea what you're talking about, as usual. Good-bye and have fun. :) HAHAHA. Yet another person that doesn't know the story, but is getting mad. And now you're trying to get attention by stepping down? Like it has been said before..GOOD RIDDANCE. Viva La Revolucion! |

How can you be so sure? Are the admins and head staff infallible these days?
The only real justification we're provided with for demodding Kaycee is the word of the admins and head staff. I mean, just be looking at her modding record she hasn't done anything malicious. In fact, she did a fabulous job a moderator. I mean, there's absolutely no evidence provided against Kaycee. |

Juna -
I can partially understand why you're so infuriated with this whole ordeal, but this isn't the approrpiate way to deal with it. You should know better. As you all know, I was one of the earliest staff members, and that's how it's been dealt. It's been going fine. I respect Mona and Mzkandi equally, and I'm sure they had their just reasons. Keep in mind, they can fire whoever they want. Afterall, they are the administrators. Moreover, you, as a staff member, shouldn't be copying and pasting the quotes from the backstage in to the public. Shouldn't you know what goes in the backstage stays in the backstage? |

Why would they demod a people staffer with no evidence? That's ridiculous. Almost as ridiculous as speculating that the admins and head staff 'made shit up'.

I understand the moderator's decisions to demote Kaycee, and that this is under their power, but I also feel that at least they should provide us with some reason of why she was demoted, rather than something silly like saying that "she got what she deserved" or something of the like. I don't think this should be some little secret kept backstage - people deserve to know at least a general idea of what happened. Obviously, not everyone is happy with her demotion and they have no idea why. You can't just discard something without providing a reason.

The kind when she tells her friend in front of thousands of people to not tell anyone. Instantaneously everyone wants to know, and by holding back it because "you dont want drama" is creating more drama than there would be if you already said it. So please... do us all a favor and stop doing this secret "kaycee's reason doesnt need to shared" because that it clearly bull shit.... We deserve to know as members of YOUR site, other wise we dont know what else your keeping secret from us. That only gives us reasoning to leave... ![]() ![]() |

The thing I'm confused about is: who really knows what's going on? So many people are saying that they know but they can't tell, but who really knows what the problem is besides Mona and Kiera? Because I thought that no one was supposed to know and disclose that information.

F**k this being dropped, it's already too big of a f**king issue because it wasn't fair, justified, or even reasonable.
This isn't drama, this is a f**king fight for a reasonable ending. I was given some shit reason for firing me, one that, I'm sure, had been applied to another more established mod would not be enough for demotion. And then I'm told to f**king keep it under wraps. Well fine, I'll keep it under wraps. Why? Because it really is nobody's business. Even to the people that support me, and I'm so happy that ya'll are, but the reason is nobody's business and, I am completely sure about this; NOT ENOUGH TO F**KING FIRE ME. WE'RE NOT SUPPOSED TO DISCUSS IT. So you know what? We won't discuss the f**king reason. There's no point, because I don't even know why. I did something "really bad". Yeah, okay, I did some bad shit, but enough for demotion? What the f**k is that? They told me no explicit rule that I had broken; so why should I be fired?Oh, yeah...I shouldn't of. So now, not only can I not discuss the reason (or, you know, lack of reason) that I was fired, I can't discuss the fact that I was fired. Well, um, WHY THE HELL NOT? Because of hype? Well, hype for a good Goddamn reason, then. |

I think it's Kaycee's choice as to whether she wants to tell us or not; but if she wants to, then I don't see why staff should try to prevent her from NOT telling.

what don't you believe exactly?
you tell us nothing, just saying that she deserved it, and what, you expected nothing to come of that? that was pretty stupid. |

I think it's Kaycee's choice as to whether she wants to tell us or not; but if she wants to, then I don't see why staff should try to prevent her from NOT telling. Kaycee has nothing else she can tell us about her demotion, other than her post here.What is this supposed to accomplish? This is an exhibition of a weak staff/community relationship. How about listening to the community for once and telling them what's up? You won't listen to even your fellow staff members!I think it's funny that everyone is taking sides without knowing the facts. Since your mind is already made up, what's the point? In this particular case, Kaycee's demotion was not justified. |

i'm trying not to take a side since i don't know the situation. But, really, i don't understand why the people shouldn't get to know why the reason someone on the people staff was actually dismissed. Especially since it's controversial. think of it like the government, whatever stays in there stays in there especially those of higher officials being the head staff and the admins of this site, we are like the people that demand answers as of demanding and questioning Bush's authority. They could fire him or anyone in office with the consent of the other higher officials even if that person may not know what he/she did wrong. but in Kaycee's case she does not know what she did wrong to get fired, but I'm pretty sure if she took the time to think and look at what she might have done to get fired, then I think all this support and fighting may be futile. People now in the community question the actions and motives of the staff members, if their reasons are to be kept within that area then let it be. I'm not taking sides for anyone but pointing out some stuff that ya'll shold think about before running your mouths arguing why something shouldnt have happend or without knowing the reason why it happened. |

Just because I'm the so-called "voice" of the "Anti-Kaycee" movement, doesn't mean there's a conspiracy against her or something. Ultimately, it wasn't my decision. Why don't you seek the answers to your questions from the source, or atleast the people who were directly involved in her removal from the staff team? Isn't that the first thing we tried?Yes. Which utterly failed and brought us here... |

Yes. still not taking sides, but how is that fair to the community and better yet the staff team as a whole? you had told james you were NOT on staff. i understand you still have power to see backstage, but not being a member of the staff team, you shouldn't be allowed to know the reasoning behind it either.

i understand and like i said, i'm really not trying to take sides. it's just the facts on both sides are really misconstrued right now and it's getting kind of annoying at the moment.
one last question...since you were the "first to know", were you the one to bring it to the staffs attention? |

No, if you haven't noticed..the head staff/admins: Kiera, Mona, Rebecca and Dani haven't been on that much since this happened. So instead everyone is badgering me, when I've been saying for a while now..It's not my business to tell. I didn't fire Kaycee, so if you really want to know..go to the source. Don't you think we've been asking the head staff and admins via PMs and IMs? They only reply with "this cannot be discussed" and etcetera etcetera. Besides, you are part of the source.one last question...since you were the "first to know", were you the one to bring it to the staffs attention? Yes.

ok, i understand suzzette is a source and yes, i found out that she was the one to present the information to the staff, but quoting that is doing nothing for your cause except again pointing out the fact that suzzette is involved. |

^ That was the point I was trying to make at the moment. We were going to the sources, and well, Suzzette was totally legible for "badgering."
So instead everyone is badgering me, when I've been saying for a while now..It's not my business to tell. I didn't fire Kaycee, so if you really want to know..go to the source. Besides Suzzette, how would you know that we haven't been trying to get information from the "sources." |

Keep trying then Arjuna. Sure thing. That's what we've been doing for the last couple of days. This is just more of a public method. In fact, I'm going to make dang sure that they're hearing us out:Arjuna (ArjunaCapulong) has stepped down from his People Staff position. |

QUOTE The only reason why everyone is joining this stupid group is not because they really have a strong opinion about this whole thing. It's because they want to know what happened With all due respect (sincerely), how can people form a strong opinion on it if they don't know what happened? I understand you're not in the position to tell, but I think someone should. :) With that said, i'm still on no side. I do respect the mods, I just don't understand all of this. |

Just a question. Isn't the point of this to KNOW what's going on, not just support Kaycee without reason? Isn't that what everyone is striking against? If those who know what really went on keep it shut as long as they live, cB staffers are just going to diminish and this place will turn into havoc.

Arjuna (ArjunaCapulong) has stepped down from his People Staff position. QUOTE Michelle (Mulder) has stepped down from her Livejournal staff position. Oh you two, come on. I understand that you guys are feeling, I don't know the word...betrayed(?) by the demotion of Kaycee. But stepping down right now doesn't help much. This fight right now, is causing a rift between the staff, and between the staff and the community. Something that I don't think cB needs. I've PMed Kaycee and asked her about the situation, since I haven't been around much and right after I come back to cB, this is going on. And she doesn't want to discuss it. I understand that you want an explanation, but I don't think that splitting the staff onto 2 sides is boosting the morale of the community. (Probably not that the demotion and undisclosed explanation of Kaycee helps either..) I thought that Kaycee was a wonderful mod and a great person in general, but maybe she just needs some time to think, maybe the head staff and admin need some time before they feel like they can tell you what happened. And the two of you were amazing staff members, I just didn't feel like it was necessary for the two of you to step down. This is harmful towards keeping the structure of this community together. |

I'm stepping down so I don't have to deal with this s**t. Maybe it will get the point across that admins can't just get rid of someone because they feel like it and "don't want to discuss why". wtf, at least the staff should know...

What does stepping down have anything to do with the problem? It's not like it'll go away once you're not on staff anymore.

What???? Because you guys were trying to avoid the discussion, remember? Wouldn't you say the group that supports Kaycee is way bigger? You've got a thread full of people, and people by default are taking her side. The only people really speaking out about it are me and Robbi ![]() |

It is the case, Arjuna. Cool it until she testifies. UNTIL. Are you cooling it? Are you cool? F**k this being dropped, it's already too big of a f**king issue because it wasn't fair, justified, or even reasonable. This isn't drama, this is a f**king fight for a reasonable ending. I was given some shit reason for firing me, one that, I'm sure, had been applied to another more established mod would not be enough for demotion. And then I'm told to f**king keep it under wraps. Well fine, I'll keep it under wraps. Why? Because it really is nobody's business. Even to the people that support me, and I'm so happy that ya'll are, but the reason is nobody's business and, I am completely sure about this; NOT ENOUGH TO F**KING FIRE ME. So you know what? We won't discuss the f**king reason. There's no point, because I don't even know why. I did something "really bad". Yeah, okay, I did some bad shit, but enough for demotion? What the f**k is that? They told me no explicit rule that I had broken; so why should I be fired? Oh, yeah...I shouldn't of. So now, not only can I not discuss the reason (or, you know, lack of reason) that I was fired, I can't discuss the fact that I was fired. Well, um, WHY THE HELL NOT? Because of hype? Well, hype for a good Goddamn reason, then. TRY AGAIN |

Well, you, and well, practically all of us, have talked ourselves up to the wall. We are all talking in circles, merely because we're all fueled by the little information that we know, except opposite for you because you know the story.
Everyone should have known that this wasn't going to go off easily. It's a demotion, for christs sake. And demotion WITHOUT a public cause. Thats like, a cocktail, for, say, a revolution. |
