I forgot to add: they also did unpaid writing, graphic and admin work, quoting a bit here:
Wrote guides, the forum etiquette, rewrote the barebones ToS with Alaunis, created custom keywords and descriptions, contributed several implemented ideas, drafted countless documents on overhauls, QoLs, economy and balancing (most of which was disregarded), came up with the discord staff acount, the indexes, etc.
Like, dang. I wonder if, besides personal pride/control of one's creation, Alaunis said no to implementing many things because this person was borderline a co-creator/co-admin and would that would have opened up legal/money implications?
When they were becoming friends and Qhersek wasn't communicating because of money troubles, Alaunis gifted them money on a personal gift way, which I suspect further complicates things on the professional side of things.
fucking blows that quersek literally wrote the TOS that they were not credited for and that was sent to them when they got banned. if LW is going to the effort to remove them from the site entirely they should at least have the thought to rewrite that stuff. feels very unprofessional all around
*animations, I somehow erased that word when shifting text around. They did animation work on the site too. I'm counting like 3-4 normally-you-would-pay-for-this work positions they volunteered for
Which is also its own boundary blurring troubling behavior, if well-intentioned. Know your worth! All of this is normally paid work!
Like no wonder Alaunis is just confidently going ahead, feedback be damned, she saved so much money, which would have otherwise been hours and hours of her own time and effort if she tried to do it all herself.
