Pessi:

I do not plan on making personal issues as a “constant excuse”- i did indeed have a lot of things come up though that i needed to deal with first. Please don’t take this as me… blowing smoke? I guess that phrase works for this? Idk im exhausted lol..

I will not deny that this has been an issue of very poor management/organization either. It very much is. And from what i’ve been reading through the thread, and what i’ve personally seen, this has been an on-going thing. I am also frustrated about this whole thing as much as you guys, especially since I joined the team to try and alleviate these issues.. Regardless, please know i’ll do my best to help out to the best of my ability, and so will the other team members.

Again if you feel the need to discuss anything with me on places like Discord please do not hesitate to do so, I wont bite and i want to make sure communication is open- I am very much aware this was another issue in the past as well.

(Apologies if my words are a little jambled, was on my feet all day at work and im exhausted but awake and finishing art regardless shdjfj)

It's great that you joined the dom team to help alleviate these issues. In struggling dom teams, people like you who have fresh ideas and energy are absolutely needed, and it's really awesome that you stepped up. A lot of people complain about their dom teams but not many take the initiative to try to change things, after all.

I do wonder, though, about the internal politics of Firedom. I've heard some worrying things about Duchess and their control of the team over the years, and I am concerned that with the way FR dom culture is, it's hard to oust someone who is not on board with changing how things are done. Lightning seemed to pull it off; the new orgs they hired have turned things around somewhat and the battle with Wind went great, but that could only have happened because they were allowed to take the reins and try new things. Arcane seems to have a similar problem to Fire, and I wonder if the new blood isn't really allowed to change things in both flights (if there even are new orgs in Arcane).
