Well it's been a couple weeks since the fiasco, and I figured those of you who weren't participating deserve to know what happened to our forum's soundcloud group. To put it simply:
It was stolen and deleted by an ex-staff member, who will not be named since all he wanted was attention anyways. Though if you'd like to know more, PM me.
This staff member was bothered by the fact that I expect my staff to actually work sometimes, he didn't like that, and before I could remove him as staff from our SC group; he removed ME and changed the information/name of the group for his new forum, Vocalsynth. Vocalsynth's creator has told me that Vocalsynth was originally created by a group of ex-staff members, to tick me off. On the first day of Vocalsynth, almost all of their "new" staff sat around in their chatbox talking about how I should kill myself. Then when people actually started joining, they cleaned up their act and pretended like none of that ever happened. Which they would have gotten away with, if I didn't have chat records from the forum's founder confirming all of this to me.
Nothing.
Everyone who has earned it by joining our former group, will keep their SC sticker. You guys wont get your stickers taken away or be forced to join a new group just to keep a sticker you've already earned, due to someone else's immaturity and lack of professionalism.
I apologize sincerely for my lack of discretion, as I feel I've let all of you down by not picking good staff members. You all deserve staff who will be active and help people, instead of bully others and betray our entire forum.
If you're interested, I will be making a new Soundcloud group that you can join shortly. I'd like to take some time to remind you all why we created UTAUBoards. We wanted a place where everyone could post their UTAU/Vocaloid work without pressure, where people could talk freely and make friends without the stress of competition. We wanted a place where bullying was at a minimum, though it is impossible to erase it entirely in any community.
UTAUboards is still striving for these goals; We'd like to thank all of you for sticking with us and making this forum awesome.
I'd also like to ask all of you; How do YOU deal with bullies? I've had a hard time dealing with being told I should kill myself, so I'd like some advice from you guys on how to deal with it! Post your opinions/methods in a reply below~!

What does this mean for you?
