It was brought to my attention that the founder of this group changed their username to "PleaseRemoveMe" and deleted all their stories. This seemed a likely prelude to deleting their account, and if you are the founder of a group when your account gets deleted, the group goes away.

As such, I've gone ahead and gotten the founder switched over to me, so it's no longer in danger of vanishing.

Now that the group has an admin, anything that needs to be done around here?

Don't think so, but good job catching that! :O

Who was the original founder?

Does this place need to restock its supply of cookies?

7114809
Destructio23, I think.

Not sure about cookies, but I could probably put up a banner and group icon and such. Maybe one of these basic rules posts saying not to troll or spam or break site rules, though it probably isn't too vital.

And I added a banner...

Nice to see you pick up the mantle Sweetie.

7114715 I'm glad to have you here.

In any case, thanks: come to think of it, I was going to ask if anyone remembers the old ones yet my search around the wayback machine only went up to 15 March 2017; on a unrelated note, my first group was where I'd to go and do a similar thing...

This is all good stuff. :D

That's a bit out of date, too. "I Just Want A Comment" and "Amateur Artists Unite!" are missing, possibly others...

Actually, it was me who caught it. It happened by complete coincidence that I noticed the changed name when I wanted to look into another group. I did not even remember the name of the group founder anymore, but doubted that anyone would name themselves like that. So I checked the userpage and found the disaster. Then I went and alerted SweetAI Belle of everything. And the rest is (saved) history.

Thank you for adding a group icon with a background pony on it!

And for anyone who misses Destructio23's stories, they are still available on FIMFetch:

Thanks! I was looking for pictures that looked slice of life-y, but by the time I found the icon, I think I'd gotten a little distracted, as I believe I was on a search for "mouth hold, cute". The artist on that one is obviously tjpones. The banner is from a picture by lionheartcartoons.
