Greetings, readers. Have I a lot to tell you (as I type this while sitting in a beach chair, on my ‘laptop’, in the ‘Hotel on the beach’ world, to help clear my thoughts(while listening to the fake sounds of the ocean)).
Yesterday, I was able to finally attend my first Best Boi meeting. I now know how they do it. You got to be friends with someone in the private world, to join (and I was able to join Creepery102).
A half an hour before the meeting, we were either sitting down or standing up. Someone eventually got up long enough that I was able to steal their seat. You snooze, you lose pal. 🙂
8pm finally came, and Kibble hushed the crowd to announce (since the rest of the moderators weren’t there (apart from Dragon Nuggets)), that he would try to attend all future meetings. Six announcements were also said;
1. Allying with the ‘loli’ faction, since the Ugandan Knuckles “are an endangered species”.
2. Moral in the Discord server (and the server) is low, and he proposes doing new games after the meeting.
3. New additions to the Best Boi Studios server…
3a. (Now Active) The ‘Snowboi’ area, now has its own area (and the grasslands have been reverted back to grass). In addition, he turned down the ‘snow blindness’ of the snow area, where Desktop users can now see their menus.
3b. (Now Active) A new ‘Best Bunny’ world (made by someone). People can also make requests for their own Best Bunnies.
3c. An upcoming “Pirate Boi” version of the Best Boi.
4. Introducing a new species to the Best Boi’s (aka himself working on a new model). He said he was going to show concept art in the Discord server, but never did.
5. Due to new species (outside of Kibble’s rule) joining the Best Boi’s, there will be a future ‘Furry Lounge’ to hang out.
6. Similar to WoW’s seasonable events, the server would also have these timed events. Such as when Easter swings around, he proposes having eggs you can gather (and mentions only one of these might open a portal to a special Best Bunny avatar).
Then it was question time. My question (that I never got to ask (but someone did it for me)), of what is the ETA of the ‘Small Boi’. Kibble says, possibly sometime after Easter. And as for where they’ll be, he originally proposed having a portal inside Trigger’s Den, but decided to have them in the same world with the Best Bunnies.

And with that, the meeting was over. I expected Kibble to say “this meeting is adjourned”. But it was just people getting up and leaving. Then Kibble showed us the additions he worked on. I already know of the Best Bunny burrow (was able to get a sneak peek with a few others a day ago(it also has a Local only mirror)), but I was able to see the new location of the Snow Boi (and the upcoming location of the ‘Pirate Boi’). This area is highly a WIP. He said it’s supposed to have water, but hasn’t gotten to it yet. Can’t wait to see the finished product.
Then we went to this new world; a version of the X-Games (called ‘Boi Got Talent’). This is when the drama started, with TwitchinGoodTV acting like a moderator(when she’s just a streamer), saying kicks will be given to anyone that cusses and stuff to the contestants (just because she’s streaming).
Wow. Okay. That’s not messed up at all. Especially when you cuss like a sailor (and also drunk an entire bottle of whisky.. while streaming). I think you have anger issues.
But anyway, this ‘talent show’ was actually pretty good. It was mostly of people singing, and being judged afterwards. There were flops, voice cracks, and having the song drown on for too long. And then, there was an angel who sang. And DAMN, is his voice good. He easily wow’d the judges (and the audience).
Then came the time where Kibble was getting tired, and we were free to do our own thing. I went back to BBS, and saw Creepery there. Out of curiosity, I asked why he wasn’t at the talent show (as he has showed, that he loves being part of the community). He said something about that he was ashamed, then said he needed to “go somewhere”.
I managed to track him down to a semi-private instance of ‘Gaia Night’, and immediately walked into a conversation of him and a furry(named ‘Jrock’), talking about Creepery wanting to be a moderator of BBS. Something about how “Kibble doesn’t give a fuck about you, and neither do the other moderators”.
He had to leave to do something, and I was alone with Jrock. We talked for a good 10 minutes about the situation. I really felt sorry for Creepery, giving his all to be friendly to everyone (and this is the thanks he gets).
The conversation changed to how he believes the Best Boi server is ‘dying’, due to how much toxicity is going on (and Kibble’s doing nothing about it). He adds (of what he feels), that the reason why the server still lives, is due to Twitchin and her followers. I don’t remember the entire conversation, but it was something about that she can get her followers to do “whatever she wants”; such as being toxic on the server. And Kibble does nothing.
And (my assumed) reasoning, is because she has publicly admitted during the meeting, of pooling all of her resources to buy him a plane ticket, and come to the US, to attend ‘TwitchCon’ with her (and a few others) in October of this year.
If this means he will do nothing to punish people who break the rules (aka respecting eachother, which continues to be broken with the furry hate and racist comments), just so he can attend TwitchCon.. yeah, I can see why Jrock feels that the server is going downhill. But again, this is just an assumption. Take my words with a grain of salt.
But this thing with Creepery, explains why he said he was planning to leave in the Discord server (but we stopped him from making a bad mistake, with lots of love and hugs). He needs a lot more than that.
Jrock talks more about the toxicity, talking about people who abuse the Kick system (instead of just blocking or muting). I definitely have seen this, given requests to kick someone that I’ve never met (and have never offended me). I personally have only used the kick system, once (and that was someone on another server, having an avatar that was lagging the entire server). That kind of shit, deserves a kick. But not for someone who calls me a retard for no reason. That’s why the Block option is there, to remove such annoyances from my life.
One such annoyance are people who play loud, obnoxious music. And he mentions Darian.. the one that (indirectly) got me into VRChat. Saying some of his music, you can hear halfway across the server. I said how I’ve seen Darian and heard his music (and never had a problem with it). But he claims there’s been instances where he has to leave the server, just to talk with his friends (due to how loud it is).
I do know that Darian, has a pretty strict friends list (with a ‘I don’t give a fuck’ attitude attached to it). I’ve never directly talked to him, fearing what he would say to my voice. It’s that kind of attitude that’s kind of ruining the community (to me). And why Jrock feels the server is ‘dying’.
But, I dunno. He also adds that he can’t tell Kibble how he personally feels (and neither can anyone). I really don’t want the server to die. But if it does, it does. Hopefully, Creepery can take over (as he told me that he would like to, when he first talked to me). But with Kibble constantly refusing to acknowledge the helpfulness that Creepery is doing (welcoming people into the server, giving them tours (and overall being an awesome fellow to talk to)… I just don’t know.
I don’t understand why he’s gone blind to this.. except from what I assumed. Yet even my own words (when it comes to Twitchin), feel that they can’t be true.
…On TOP of this, he’s telling me how the model of the Best Boi’s was actually created by someone else (and he doesn’t believe Kibble got the rights to do it). Jrock says that the Best Boi model, is based off of the ‘Dutch Angel Dragon‘ (I’ve never heard of these ‘creatures'(aka people in fur suits), but I can definitely see a resemblance), and says it had to be renamed to ‘Dutch Angel Fox’ due to copyright issues.
He said that if the original owner (going by the alias of ‘Telephone’), could sue Kibble if they copyrighted the thing. That’s something.
And that, is all the news I can give you. I have my own drama, but it’s nothing compared to this.
