I realise that money here weren’t granted. However, we deserved little respect from the staff. Like explaining properly what’s going on, and not being accused of being bots spammers and parts of engagement rings. Money was good yes and it helped me. But it’s not that what insulted me, it’s the treatment. If I hadn’t payed 150 in November maybe I wouldn’t have been that mad, but the Friends of medium program is no longer working and that’s cheating and robbery. That’s why I’m taking a break. I’m not quitting, although I’ll lose a bunch of friends here- the community I loved is breaking up. We no longer have most of the people we loved here. And yes, some of them, like Bella, did write for the money and she can’t stay here now. I’m losing her. I admit and I’m sad and I can’t continue to write now, until my perspective takes a shift. And I’m not ashamed that I’m sad.
