What on Earth? Were you on the old Bandaids at the end? Some of the staff made that a horrendous place to be, this place is a complete 360 in comparison. Nope. Sliper was part of a small discord group with Neil who started all this really weird - and extremely confusing- drama two summers ago. To this day we still don’t understand what we did wrong to any of them. How odd!

Two years ago I told you guys aka staff that you guys will crush the forum in 2-3 years, funny how non of you stuff members, can see what is wrong with your behavior, and for you to be here,saying that you guys will close the fourm, cuz of people, I'm sorry but how dare you? People are tired of sucking your dicks, of your double standarts and of your dragging memebers. And you still are here saying that is members foult, it's not!! Own up your actions instead of blaming pepople for your fail. None of you 13 staff members know how to run things, that's why forum it is how it is, most of staff mambers are nothing but group of ingorant judgmental bullies who are running forum for wrong reasons. You brought one of the greates forums among all fandoms, so down. Shame on you! Don't you EVER, EVER dare to blame people for what is happening!! That's why forum is crushing, instead of taking your repsonisbilites for what you did to peopole and forum, you are here blaming others?!? DON't YOU EVER. If you can't see why forum is going down, maybe is time for you guys to leave it. And for you to try guilt trip people into thinkig that's their foult, can see that you become even more manipulative. What on Earth? Were you on the old Bandaids at the end? Some of the staff made that a horrendous place to be, this place is a complete 360 in comparison. I know exactly what i'm talking about. I saw their BTS, no need to correct me.

I think it's a little of exaggeration shut down bandaids for that.. You could block the user who break the rules for days/weeks and that's enough
In other way, I don't know why a lot of Drama with sharing leaks, Anyway we are supporting her in the way we can

I'm sorry if it was viewed as a threat or otherwise; it was not my intention.

I'm relatively new to the dynamics of this place and I'm not entirely familiar with all its history, but I'd like to give a word of support to the staff and kindly remind you guys that these emotions are temporary. Insults and attacks have been made, which is never the right way to go about anything if you're trying to be constructive, but the tense atmosphere will pass.
We're all here because we like Avril and want to support her comeback into the music scene after 6 years. In a matter of days we'll have plenty of reasons to be happy and excited about with the album dropping and all her public appearances. I'm confident we can come together as a community to learn to be more patient and tolerant with one another and make this time of celebration a happy and safe place for everybody.

I just joined the new boards yesterday, so I doubt I'd be eligible for moderation, but imo, if it affects the staff's life so much, then maybe yeah, they should step down and take a break, work on their lives and not bother about an online board. This place has been my go to forum for about 15 years now, maybe more. I've been a huge fan since 2004/5, I used to come here and lurk, I registered back when TBDT was leaking if I remember correctly. It would be sad to see this place go, but if nobody's left to run it... I do have some experience in moderating Discord servers, if anyone cares.

So you are going to close the forum now that Avril is releasing but you kept it during all of these years of nothingness? Are you serious? Right in front of my salad?
You can leave the forum without staff. I don’t think the difference will be noticeable at all.

It was awful! They even took to personal social media accounts to bully people.

I know nothing of this and implore that you show me evidence of it.

Hi everyone. I have been on BA for a year now, but I have always knew it form the begin. Frankly I don't know the dynamics of a forum, how it should be managed etc. I can only say it would be a big pity see this forum closing. It's a little legend for Avril fans all over the world. Personally because of the language I can't express myself as I would like, but I love reading everyone's opinions and often the discussions are interesting. I don't understand why some people pour anger on the staff about the leaked songs: they do their duty and simply follow the rules. I can understand that at some point, certain repeated behaviors can tire the staff and force them to leave. If I can afford a little advice, you should probably be more rigorous with people who persisted in having inappropriate behavior. I hope some staff will come back, or new ones may come. Music should unite, and the passion for Avril and her songs should be above all a pleasure. I hope with all my heart that the forum remains alive. It's like a small family

Oh my god, nooo, I'd be so sad to see this place go 😭😭. I'm really mad at the people that were rude to you guys. I wish I could influence people and tell them to stop being dicks, lol. Also, this message makes me want to join the staff but I know I can't manage it - I have no experience, I have no time because I'm in University and I have a chronic illness which would make it impossible. *sigh* And I absolutely 𝗱𝗼 𝗻𝗼𝘁 agree that this forum can run without any moderation. Have any of you been to places on the Internet without any moderation? We'd be overrun with trolls and people who harrass and insult others without any possible repercussions. I'm sure some people wouldn't care but a lot of people would be driven away. Regardless, I reeeally hope you manage to find new staff members and we manage to keep the forum going because I'd really fucking miss it otherwise.
