I genuinely, genuinely appreciate all the help and support I've had over the last day.

​

This is by no means a comprehensive list, but I'd like to give my thanks to the folks at TTV, MOD, Beaverhouse, /r/BionicleMemes, and the many individuals who helped out.

​

I'd also like to give my sincerest thanks to the admin Chtorrr, who removed the old mods and helped fix everything! (Let's not ping them incessantly please)

​

Now, I would love for this to be the main subreddit, but there's simply too big of a difference in subscribers for it to seem reasonable. There's no way to transfer people, so I think it best we go with r/BionicleLego.

I'm drawing a blank and want to design my own.

So yeah r/bioniclelego got taken back by the good mods and the bigoted mods got kicked. This is obviously a win for LGBT Bionicle fans and the community as a whole but where does this put r/BIONICLE? I means it's purpose was to be a replacement of r/bioniclelego but now we have it back what now?

Personally I think having a second sub for Bionicle is a good thing to have. Imo it should be turned into a more LGBT oriented sub bc that's why it was invented but that's just me.

What do you guys think?

So, I don't have any way to prove this, but I'm the creator of /r/bioniclelego. I created the sub on an old account (/u/muniosi), which I deleted when the subscriber count was in the double digits. I had no idea how many Bionicle fans were still around and I'm absolutely ecstatic about how much the community has grown!

I mostly wanted to come here and say I'm so proud of the mods that have come to replace me. I was so glad to see u/GinkoWeed's post calling out bigotry in the sub. As a trans woman it's very important to me to find spaces where I feel totally safe to be myself, and /r/bioniclelego was one of those spaces - and I'm confident that thanks to the mod team and the incredible community, /r/bionicle will quickly replace it.

Anyway, that was pretty much it. I'm glad to be here and thanks to the mods (the good ones). Unity, duty, destiny.

🖤
