GSFTW chat: "a real fix would be the board recusing themselves"

How GSFTW chair Shy Matsi handles criticism bsky.app/profile/koja...

GSFTW chat calls for corrupt board to step down, with obstructionism by Florida fur Sotalo, acting stooge for his friend Shy Matsi. I'm also getting private messages about Sotalo being chronically a defender of problematic people. (1/4)

Messages about Sotalo chronically defending problem people. Mentions his friend Shy Matsi's hookup group Furries Xtreme.

The problems with GSFTW are not with isolated individuals who can be ejected. It's the entire board operating it as a magnet for the worst of the community, attracting others who do too, all the way from Florida. Supporting it going forward would make the community more toxic with less solution.

GSFTW chair Shy has brought in an extremely victim-blamey manipulator to shield the management. bsky.app/profile/cray...

There's those alternative facts! After GSFTW management mass-purged dissent from their chat, Sotalo, Shy's white knight from Florida, is denying it ever happened and pretending everyone left after they got real sowwy. Unreal to lie so brazenly.

Corporate record implies GSFTW had a period of operating as legally suspended. This says bad things about how they handle pre-registration, money and taxes. bsky.app/profile/boxo...

Sotalo, the white knight for GSFTW's management has been a focus of complaints about bad relations with others. Tippers sent a screen of one incident with his advocacy for showing porn to minors that caused such uproar in a California chat group, it had to pause posting.

Above screen shows "wrong place, didn't ask." Parents with children had not been asking for sex positivity or complaining about any problem in a general furry social chat that had nothing to do with kids or adult content.

As tippers are scrutinizing the management of GSFTW, we're getting a mix of corporate records, screens of authoritarianism in their chat, and background about poor judgement by their remaining supporters. What a ride.

Wew, I took a few hours break and it's been wild. In GSFTW chat, Shy Matsi's imported Floridian white knight Sotalo has now caused yet another meltdown with his walls of text, full of blame-shifting excuses. It ended with Sotalo accusing critics against nazis of being the real nazis.

Sotalo's Manipulative Firehose of Lies (5/9) Sotalo calls everyone protesting: "exclusive, discriminatory... People who despise this convention's leadership, and Furries". Sotalo says protesters are full of "hate" because they don't love Furry, and wouldn't give Dashing another chance.

Sotalo's Manipulative Firehose of Lies (6/9) Sotalo says after WWII, everyone had to live together, and it could happen here, but not with people who don't bring the fandom together. Chat: "Guess how WW2 ended. They got rid of the Nazis first, and the people who enabled them were denazified"
