The JO Situation: Finally, closure!

http://tgwtgrumours.tumblr.com/post/17808829670/jesuotaku-and-the-rumours#notes

FINALLY! Someone confirming that yes, JO said that awful stuff. It's great that she's changed, but it was bothering me after the whole TGWTG Secrets debacle that she was denying she ever said that stuff and making things horrible for Rants and the confused fans and those of us who actually read the formspring post that has since been deleted. 

And now we can put this whole business to rest. Now that it's all out in the open ... I think I can watch JO's reviews again. *smiles*

Just got back from my first college party. Yaaaaaay! Pretty small, lots of fun dancing, lots of sexy dancing, lots of me watching people do sexy dancing and wanting to join in and not knowing the protocal for that, and me headbanging to Katy Perry and stuff. I'm sore and sweaty and I had fun. I'm glad I went out with my friends. 

So sorry

Oh my god, I am so, so, so, sorry that I didn't contact you ahead of time. I completely dropped the ball on that one. I cannot apologise enough. I blame an over-fried brain because I've been putting this post together for hours and hours and it's now 6am in the UK, but I really don't have an excuse because it didn't even occur to me to contact you.

I'm normally good at contacting people ahead of time, so I'm really, really sorry that I didn't notify you ahead of time.

Dude, it's ok! Don't worry about it. A little head's up would have been nice, but whatever, just something to keep in mind for the future. I'm really glad that you made that epic post about the whole situation and put it all to rest.

I've spent most of my time in this fandom with a little nagging worry in the back of my head about the trolls, from the minute I posted my first TGWTG fic to when we got the Secret Treehouse up and going to when I heard Bennett was going to read one of my fics on MFT to when TGWTG people started tweeting about fics ... yeah. I worry too much about that.

Again, thank you so much for all your hard work. You are making a difference. I haven't watched any of JO's vids in a year because of ... that stuff, but now that it's all in the open I feel like I can start watching her stuff again. Thank you.
