#qsmp admin situation

[desnayy]

The reason I'm happy to see Chay and Lullah awake is both because I'm very fond of them, and also because this has to be a sign that things have changed, are still changing, behind the scenes. I'm of the belief that they are going to focus on paying the egg admins who've stayed and were chilling the whole time, and once they all get paid, work on getting the pay to the ones who left. Idk, I would rather look at this positively rather than negatively, as I've had too much negativity in my life just this month..

#qsmp #qsmp admin situation #tbd probably #there's still a lot that needs to be done but i want to believe we are getting towards things being better

[valictini]

I'm just. Idk man.

Obviously they want us to trust that everything is okay behind the scene by bringing back Chayanne and Tallulah like "See? They're back! And theyre doing lore!! So dont worry!" And i want to believe that but I don't understand why they can't just. Make an official announcement. Not make people guess what they mean. Stop the entertainement train for 2 seconds to actually confirm that changes happened.

Why is the returning of previously unpaid employees with no actual confirmation that they are paid now treated like a fun lore moment? Why is every important decision always announced in such an indirect manner? Why do we have to guess their intentions and make a leap of faith every time something new happens?

I mean I know the answer, this is to keep the fans hooked, not reminding fans of the studio's mistakes and let the streamers who put all their eggs in the QSMP basket (ha) continue creating interesting content on the mostly empty server... but why does this take priority over contacting the people that were exploited?

They could have had both. They could have had this "the show must go on" attitude without ghosting all the victims. They could have tried to make it less public without relying on the fans'past attachment to the project to keep trusting them.

We are not privy to any detail, but if we had had confirmation from ex admins that they were being heard and would be solving things privately, i would have accepted it and trusted the process. But alas, that's not what happened... (maybe it's happening rn but our last update was apparently from sunnys admin 4 days ago saying that they had no update, so you know)

My take on what's probably going on behind the scenes at Quackity Studios:

They aren't rushing to bring all the eggs back. Otherwise, 1, they wouldn't have had Cucurucho take them, and, 2, it wouldn't just be Chayanne and Tallulah and there would be a whole event for it.

They are letting the admins come back when they want to.

Phil has been telling us and reassuring us that both Chayanne and Lullah's admins have just kind of been waiting everything out and that they're both staying with the server, just waiting for the a-okay to hop back on. Given that, it makes sense they'd be the first to come back.

I'm sure that as people start feeling more comfortable, more eggs will come back. Just give their admins some time.

[anartisticdreamer0]

anyways imma stop talking about the live stuff for awhile,

i hope that because we are seeing two admins acting as eggs and they seem like they’re the same admins as before, that these admins at least are alright and taken care of.

but i really and extremely hope that all the egg admins (and all other workers) will be okay and taken care of but we won’t know in full for awhile.

i am NOT asking ANYONE to wait or be patient, yeah no i won’t do that. but i’m just saying i personally want to hope but just in case i’ll stop posting about it all for now. i just really missed them :/

see y’all for now o/

Quackity is giving some updates about QSMP structural changes:

- He has been on many calls and reading comments, but is still not done.

- People who were in charge some of the financial and administrative wrong doings were fired.

- The QSMP wouldn't last much longer if I had kept going the way I was doing.

- He is basically restarting the administration almost from zero

- There won't be more individual update accounts for each creator or each language at least for a while

- There won't be any eggs or npcs **TEMPORARILY**

-Creators will be in charge of their own lore and the team is not going to intervene in that anymore

- The competitive level is going to slow down

- The server will be in basic terms

- The server might be re opened but that doesn't mean everything is fixed

*feel free to add the things i forgot*

[magicalmanhattanproject]

okay i am still not really able to properly articulate everything i want to say about the admin situation but i'm seeing a lot of doomposting and also lots of people setting themselves up for disappointment with wildly optimistic assumptions so lemme just try to hit some bullet points

adding another new creator and language in this time of turmoil is not ideal, but he was leaked a while ago that he'd been accepted and waiting to join for a while before the whole situation dropped and leaving him in limbo after he's already set aside the time in his schedule for qsmp is also not ideal

we are probably not gonna hear anything more specific than we've already heard until negotiations are finalized. inviting The Entire Internet to comment on every single detail of the negotiations at every step of the way is not going to help

everything we hear from quackity will be as positive as possible. everything we hear from the union will be as negative as possible. it is their jobs to be this way. temper your reactions accordingly

both quackity and the union want a solution where the qsmp continues and the eggmins all keep their jobs and get paid fairly for reasonable labor in reasonable conditions. the union is not gonna be gunning to take down the qsmp

a lot of the negotiations are going to be over what reasonable labor and conditions actually look like for a job that necessarily includes weird and inconsistent hours and labor demands. this is going to take a while to figure out

the other main issue is going to be backpay for the labor that the staff has already done. this is going to be a massive chunk of change. it's also going to take a while to figure out who is owed what and whether it should be paid out all at once or over a period of time

all of these money issues are going to be complicated by the many different currencies and tax standards involved.

tl;dr: this is a complicated situation and it won't be solved any time soon and we shouldn't really expect updates until everything is finished which wont be for a while, but it's actively being worked on and solutions do exist

btw if I see anyone going at Quackity for being emotional or victimizing himself, I will not grant you the privilege of hearing out your opinion, I will block you. On site. Without remorse.

He A) is a victim. He has been doxxed, harrassed, stalked, and sent death threats. These things are crimes that Quackity is a victim of, and I think it's insane if you believe he's victimizing himself when he is a fucking victim.

And B) he is allowed to be emotional when he's afraid for his life? Actually, in general he's allowed to be emotional, that's not a question, but now more than ever. Celebrities and influencers have teared up far more over far less without anywhere near as much backlash.

This isn't a discussion to be had. If you believe he's unreasonably emotional or victimizing himself in the situation then make yourself known now so we can both block each other and never interact again.

I mean it.

I guess I just feel like there’s not enough consideration of exactly how many people have been fucked over by the actions of a few malicious people.

The qsmp admins got so supremely fucked over by this and continue to get fucked over with this mess. They’re left in the dark about so much and that’s a terrible feeling to have. My heart goes out to all of you because you wanted to be part of something you loved and that was used against you. I hope those of you who chose to leave find bright futures with projects you love. I hope those of you who are able and willing to stay get the respect and compensation you deserve. No one should have to put up with that kind of abuse in the workplace.

Quackity messed up by naively trusting that no one would he hired would try to screw him over and now he’s got to fix this entire mess mostly by himself because he is the sole owner at the moment. He’s also been fucked over, it was his finances that were squandered by the problem admins and those admins abused the trust he put them. I also feel bad for Quackity during all of this because even though he should have been more involved from the start, there never would’ve been a problem if everyone on the Quackity Studios team was honest and respectful.

The admins that were hurt are not the enemy!

Quackity is not the enemy!

The few people within Quackity Studios who took advantage of Quackity’s lack of involvement and experience and used that to mistreat the rest of the team are the problem! They are the root cause of this mess!

Please have compassion for everyone else left to pick up the pieces and try to salvage the server.

[qtubbo]

I feel like I have to explain this, Tubbo said that he wasn’t in the loop on the admin discussion and wasn’t keeping up with it. He was trying to explain that anything he said that implied certain things weren’t/were happening that audience didn’t know weren’t actually implications since he does not know more than us. He was also trying to say why he may talk weirdly about Sunny coming back because he can’t know for sure she is.

It was literally hey im busy with the Tubbathon haven’t been talking to Quackity, don’t take your info from me.

UPDATE ON THE ADMIN SITUATION FOR TUMBLRINAS

about 18 hours ago a past employee (José) made a post saying that he will publish a doc of quackity studios employees' experiences to help alex fix problems in quackity studio. he said that he will get legal help so he and the employees don't get sued.

later he made a fellow up saying that he has received more testimonies and that he is in contact with 3 lawyers. the doc is not meant to slender alex and is not an accusation although it may come off as such. the doc is meant to show the problems in quackity studio so they can be fixed.

he has been trying to contact alex. and wants this to be resolved privately. he said that he will wait for a ''margin of time'' until he posts the doc in hopes that he will be able to contact alex.

if you have twt please consider reposting/liking the post or tagging quackity. it is best if this is resolved privately. if the post gets enough attention, then it can hopefully reach alex and things can be fixed as soon as possible. for now, just boost the post and be patient.

and remember, even if they end up publishing the doc, don't harass anyone. it is not an accusation. it is for the betterment of the company.

here's a link to the post!

when we joked about qsmp adding capitalism i didnt expect that to include admin team embezzelment i wont lie

[valictini]

People be like "it's OK to take a break from everything!!" without realising that it's not a break for fans who were following the french ccs. It's a permanent leave.

Like, imagine that your favorite egg(s) and cc(s) left because of mismanagement overnight. Really, imagine it for a second. Your faves don't show up anymore. Quackity doesn't even acknowledge they're gone despite the fault lying on his studio. Imagine having to "take a break" after that. Truly put yourself in our shoes for a second.

You need to realise that right now, "Taking a break" feels more like "accepting that we're being kicked out without a word"

It is. Deeply. Deeply. Frustrating. Especially since the problems in question were consistently pointed out by fans and ccs.

Also, for the record, I DID try to take a break. And then literally the next day Pomme's and Dapper's admins left. So yeah I'm done waiting. I want solutions to the problems we've been screaming about for months.

If not for us, then at least for the rest of you.

Sorry if you think im being impatient. That i don't give Quackity enough grace. But the problem with the integration of the french community started day one. It's normal for us fans to assume the best, to assume that surely, those were just one-off errors and that they were being resolved behind the scene. But it's not normal for Quackity to do the same.

How tf did Quackity let it slide for so long without investigating the cause? Did he even notice/care that we were consistently left out? How did he not know that Lumi was the only french admin on the team? Why did he seemingly not talk to any of the admins in private even ONCE in an entire year ?

Say what you want, that he's young, that he's overwhelmed, that he never managed such a big team, that he blindly trusted the management he put in place, all that is true... but that doesn't erase the fact that he himself took these risks. It's his own fault for creating such an ambitious server without the necessary skills to oversee every aspect of it. And im sorry if his mental health takes a toll because of this situation but it is NOT hate to point these facts out.

i'm not gonna speak much on whats going on with the qsmp and its admins until we get more info, but i do think it is absolutely wild seeing random unqualified tumblr users making lengthy posts trying to explain how french labor law works when they are neither french nor a lawyer. like damn bro. citation needed.

#also why are the dteam stan blogs driving the bus. who keeps letting them tell us how unions work. why are they on my dash. #qsmp admin situation #discourse

[missycolorful]

still crazy to think about how the eggs were supposed to be temporary. just two weeks. and now look at where we are; the server wouldn't be what it is without them. the admins' impacts are ginormous. they deserve so much love and support for all of their hard work and passion <3

#qsmp #qsmp admin situation #i'll just put on a positive note here amongst all the insanity and skedaddle i'm gonna start a new stardew valley game cuz of the update :3

[murky-tannin]

I'm still stuck on the union not fucking emailing Quackity and then getting mad he hasn't communicated with them. That's so fucking funny. Like everything else going is dumb in an awful way, but this was just dumb in the most hysterical sense.

People have been acting like treating the union as humans instead of 'hyper competent super perfect professionals who know everything and do not wrong' is evil and bad. I wasn't even allowed to point out the confirmed and known misinfo they claimed in their update post (once again confirmed as misinfo by Dapper's admin today 💀) without being told I was being anti french and hated workers rights.

And turns they can't even fucking email a guy. Which is their job. At least in the usa, unions are supposed to inform the employer of their issues and set up communications between them. I don't know what the fuck y'all have in France if their actions here are in line with the responsibilities of your unions, but I like to think that they are the exception and not the rule to a typical French union💀

I forgave them using twitter because i thought it was a good route of initial communication for the admins and figured there was more behind the scenes when they started complaining about Quackity refusing to contact them, because they literally had never asked him to in their public statement (at least the english translated version) so I thought if they're upset at him for not contacting them, surely they reached out to him? Or asked him to? No. They never asked him to.

I expect dumbassery from minecraft streamers and honestly I expected some from a union too, but I was told I shouldn't by everyone and here we are. God.
