I came to LIT 11 years and discovered the worst you can do is suggest anything TEX, PILOT, and others don't like. We had wars for a few years. STELLA launched an attack for ,y thoughts about verbs.
All you can do is ignore them and write your stories. What's out of your control is not even worth arguing over. Forget about it and just go on with your business.
Those who you named above are approved personalities for this site. Perhaps they are secret monitors, I don't know. Who knows and who cares? What I do know is that they post their poisonous nonsense 24/7 and if they don't like anyone, they are allowed to attack them without repercussions or discipline. They are personally responsible for removing writers from this site, especially women.
The bottom line is that we're lucky to have a site like this where we can post our stories. Thank you, Laurel. My best advice is you to stay off the forum boards. Use this platform as your sounding board when writing stories. Write the best story you can. After a while, you'll have enough fans who will give you enough votes that will erase the bashing votes and comments.
Good luck with your writing.
