it seems like ashling isn’t 100% confirmed to have played a part in that (other than being on the mod team and not resigning in disgust as another mod apparently did) but multiple people, including mods of other exchanges, claim that she was telling tall tales about alchemise being a big harrassing wanker in private discords. those people were pretty upset to learn that all they actually did was tag a fandom that included a DNWd character’s name and share their bewilderment at being banned for it, lol.

/coalie who was not around for this but just spent way too long reading through those links
