Leaving FA
General | Posted 12 years agoHey, it's my first journal
I've never been very active on FA, so this doesn't mean much, but I'm no longer going to be active at all and I'll probably pull down my gallery and delete any other personal information.
This is in response to https://www.furaffinity.net/journal/5440900 which essentially says that despite the community uproar, because Zaush hasn't been convicted of anything illegal, they're keeping him on as a coder.
Reading through https://forums.vivisector.org/index.....sg4109#msg4109 it's pretty clear that Zaush forced himself on Ferality through endless badgering, intimidation, and other forms of manipulation. Remember that the logs shown in that thread were hacked and not meant to be made public, so it's not as if Ferality could have been lying to try to ruin Zaush's reputation - she didn't even intend to accuse Zaush publicly. Even if Zaush's actions are not prosecutable as rape under whatever particular definition is used in his local area (I have no idea if they are), I think there's more than enough evidence to show he's done very wrong things to many women in the FA community and should not even be allowed on this site anymore, let alone given a powerful position as a coder where he can access anyone's data or add in backdoor access for himself. I'm highly uncomfortable having any personal data in FA's database as long as Zaush is on staff.
Dragoneer's own girlfriend told him that Zaush had badgered her for sex. The fact that Dragoneer, as site owner, condones Zaush's behavior by offering him this job is another compelling reason for me to leave this site.
From a moral, business, and security standpoint, hiring Zaush is a disaster. I've always been one to boycott businesses I consider immoral, and unfortunately FA now falls into that category. So, goodbye FA.
