There’s always going to be a breaking point where no one is going to want to tolerate your presence. If you make zero effort to at least be tolerable in a group setting. Don’t be surprised when no one from that group wants to deal with you.
there was lot of weird stuff with Helryx but I can’t remember any bridgading with Bomonga, just people kinda dumbfounded over the “shieldgate” and the amount of torsos used
Funny enough that’s… actually entirely a reason to ban people. Says so right in the rules for the forum, which you agree to abide by when you join the forum. It’s very rare that actions outside the boards would be taken into consideration when it comes to the boards themselves, but Double’s not a special case in that regard either.
I’m not saying that it is. The Discords were brought up with the claim that the “anti-TTV” groups that you wanted to know about were active on said Discords, to which you replied that that information was being “withheld”. I’m saying that it’s not being withheld by anyone, since it’s just community members talking about the contests on a forum that anyone can join.
I am not saying that TTV is posting official contest information there.
If I misinterpreted what you were saying, please clarify.
Again, my understanding of events is that the ban was a result of actions taken to delay, compromise, or otherwise inconvenience the contests, rather than just general bad behaviour. More details can be found in the Reddit post that I linked above, though I cannot personally verify any of the information in it.
Aside from the frankly depressing mismanagement of the contests by literally everyone involved from every site.
This is my biggest problem with them, they’re supposed to be a community canon contest that affects the entire community, but not only are they only in english, they’re exclusive to the ttv boards, where ttv can ban anyone they don’t like, whether deserved or not, from being a part of a contest that is much bigger than these boards.
agreed

I don’t care if you don’t like someone, this is a community contest and if the community doesn’t like someone they won’t vote for them if they’re that biased.
This is a contest for canon depictions of bionicle characters, not who’s the nicest community member.

I don’t care about double, I’ve never spoken to him, I didn’t vote for him, I don’t care about him.

I hope my frankness doesn’t make me sound like a Detractor, though honestly at this point I’ve been driven far away from the entire bionicle community due to everyone’s behavior so I’m not sure I care anymore.
The only thing that these contests have managed to do is wither away what little amount of parts were left on BL (see metru torsos, blue pakari) and divide the already small community even more, so in short, self cannibalization, and I for once cant wait for the community to be dead so maybe parts arent as much of a pain to come by without having to stalk BL or whatever marketplace.
