Coke dick wasn't ignored the same way as v's transgressions were ignored. If anyone brought coke dick up they were scolded and told not to talk about it b/c the OP was a favored poster and since she was embarrassed and regretted posting about it it should never be brought up again. It was ridiculous.

One of the people involved in coke dick was v. That demonstrated before RacistGate that there is a certain MM hierarchy that you don't fuck with. V appeared to be queen bee, which is appropriate, since she was a classic mean girl. Good riddance.
I apologize for never calling her out here, but I usually tried to avoid interacting with her - and that went double after what happened with kirkette and smo. This isn't my "home board," and I also didn't want to poke the bear - which was cowardly of me. I was surprised it wasn't addressed here and that v stuck around for all of two seconds, though. She had little incentive to leave if this board was still worshipping her (as evidenced by the OP).
I agree with msmerymac. I avoided v for the most part and actually had her blocked for a long time.
I should have posted about it and thought about it many times. Quite frankly, I felt I was making my opinion heard other places, and to do a witch hunt here would have come across poorly in the sense of "white woman who never spoke up before now trying too hard to shame others."
I will say, a lot of folks who I consider mm regulars are still not posting about it even in this thread. I wish they would.
Meh, I think coke d*ck is a completely different scenario than racistgate. There were posters other than v involved, and they were all thoroughly shamed enough with the initial post. I think the reason MM is reluctant to rehash that situation is because as a whole the board tries to avoid the mean girl nonsense that goes on on other boards.
I did not realize until this thread that v had made racist comments or that this was the reason she was no longer around. I saw the post that winnie mentioned above, but I did not realize it was racially motivated. After reading Kirkette's comments above, I understand now that it was. I did not see any of her posts on the other boards. Now that I know what happened, I am glad she is gone.

For me it was that I participated in the discussion on other boards, but I'm happy to reiterate that I'm 100% team kirkette here.
I keep seeing various things about how MM supposedly ignores the transgressions of some posters. MM is a pretty slow board and doesn't have many hardcore posters anymore. I know some peolple sit on ML all day waiting for drama but my keyboard warrior days are over. I don't think most MM'ers are hopping all over GBCN to read v's racist tirades. I would guess many posters here have no idea what she said, I didn't understand the full depth of it until I read kirkette's post.
And although not on the same level, why would anyone make fun of NQB? Is she also hopping all over GBCN offending people or is she just an easy target?
Which is it? That MMers knew about it (per daisypaloma ) and participated in threads about it on other boards or didn't know about it even though it began right here?
ETA: you don't need to be a keyboard warrior to take a stance on this subject let's put that idea to bed.
ETA 2: you don't see how MM ignores things? See coke dick!
Back when I posted on the board regularly I never noticed anything v said to be racist or inflammatory. If her tune changed or her true colors came out on other boards, or my white privilege shielded me from her microaggressions, then by all means, she's a racist shitbag who needed to go.
I'm not sure how stating I'm no longer a keyboard warrior equates to me not taking a stance on the subject. I'm simply saying that I sadly don't have time to read all the various shit on these boards anymore, so like many other posters, I have no idea WTF v was doing and saying across GBCN and I don't have time to go read multiple megathreads about it. So unless someone comes over here and brings all that shit to light- some people around these parts are none the wiser.
And in regards to coke dick, I asked about that on another board after someone mentioned it. I believe the threads were deleted and no one gave much details. I've also seen people ask about it on this board and many have no idea what happened. I'm not sure what kind of stance you want everyone to take on a situation they know nothing about.
It seems to be people who spend a lot of fucking time on GBCN who think MM needs to rise up and take some sort of stance on subjects many of us know nothing about. If you want a stance, then by all means, make a post and tell us all about the transgressions.
I hadn't noticed v's behavior before, but after @kirkette's posts I took another look and saw what was happening. I feel bad that I hadn't seen it before. I fully support @kirkette and the other WOC here.
I hadn't even noticed that v was gone until it was mentioned here.

You have got to be kidding me.
You haven't seen that v committed any microaggressions or overtly racist acts so those offended should put together a thread outlining the transgressions for you?
Also you truly don't think I want anyone to take a stance on coke dick right? That was simply an example of how MM hushes things up.
No, that's actually not at all what I said.
Perhaps you should go back and actually read my post, comprehend it, and try again.

Oh, I can clarify here. We knew about everything and it was dicussed. What we did not discuss was v leaving, which happened several weeks later. I was going to correct that earlier, but didn't bother. Re coke dick - imo, that was ignored for respectable reasons lol. It was said in a confessions thread and deleted. To me, what happens in confessions should stay in confessions. That's the only way to get good confessions.
I'm not saying that MM doesn't ignore things, because we're basically amazing at it, but nothing about what happened to @kirkette or Smo was ignored.
I should have posted about it and thought about it many times. Quite frankly, I felt I was making my opinion heard other places, and to do a witch hunt here would have come across poorly in the sense of "white woman who never spoke up before now trying too hard to shame others."
This is where I am. My silence here doesn't equate to me being okay with everything that happened. What happened was 100% not okay. I am so sad that smo and kirkette had to deal with this not just here, but at multiple points in their lives.
I thought cokedick wasn't discussed because the situation had a negative effect on a marriage. Bringing it up after the DD and creating more of an internet footprint on it would be in poor taste if it meant someone's H might find it and get upset about the situation all over again.

I hadn't even noticed that v was gone until it was mentioned here.
I have been trying to think of a way to articulate my thoughts, and this hits it on the head. I'm embarrassed to say I never really noticed until it was pointed out and then holy shit. I'm horrified at myself I didn't see it sooner. I apologize for that
I really hadn't planned to come back in here, but since I was tagged and it was mentioned yet AGAIN...
Now, because the tweet about kicking some woman in the teeth is so fucking old, I have pretty much zero recollection of the backstory behind it. However, the two people I tagged in it aren't even on these boards. I highly doubt that it was even about winnieandwine.

If this thread didn't start on Monday, I would have had a lot more to say. I'm catching up.
This is all kinds of ridiculous. From V to coke dick to twitter.
v is a coward for not acknowledging her racist shit and apologizing to the people she's hurt.
v was also a shitty friend for posting the confession about meeting some guys and doing coke while hanging out with [redacted] .
I said it. If you don't want your H finding out you were in a situation he might not approve of then don't do shit with a blabber mouth.
IIRC, it was a whole thread delete by flex and not at the OP's request. If that whole thread didn't get deleted, none of this would have been what it became: snorting coke off a dick.
As for wannabe , I'm sure I've seen her call people out on their shit numerous times on here, especially 2bewed (in one of the screenshots). Hell, I do that too. I think talking about GBCN on twitter is stupid. But to each their own. Maybe I'd feel differently if I had twitter? Everything is public and will get back to you. Still not cool. Whatever.
poundcake, read my post on page 9 (on the regular website, could be something else on the app). It's not actually that interesting, but everyone is all cloak and dagger about it. PROTECT THE (not) INNOCENT. And all that jazz.
Meh, I think coke d*ck is a completely different scenario than racistgate. There were posters other than v involved, and they were all thoroughly shamed enough with the initial post. I think the reason MM is reluctant to rehash that situation is because as a whole the board tries to avoid the mean girl nonsense that goes on on other boards.
My point about coke dick was that the entire incident was deleted as a "favor" to people who were considered to be the top of the MM hierarchy. I do not think the hush up would have been so complete if other people had been involved instead of those who were. I also remember threatened bans for people who brought it up on MM specifically.
Of course, the best way to get people to continue to talk about something (getting the details wrong) years later is to delete it and pretend it never happened, ensuring legendary status.
That's the incident that solidified her "status" to me. It had nothing to do with her racist comments, nor was the incident "bad" in the same way.

Posts don't get deleted as a favor.
An error may have occurred in this situation, I don't recall and wasn't the mod who deleted. Still, if there was an error, it wasn't intentional or a favor.
