October is where the first greentext deletions began to take place. Pastebins, which were the stylish story sharing site at the time, since replaced by archive of our own, or ao3, were deleted as well when they were posted in the threads, leading to some unique and lasting strategies for evading it, between changing "pastebin" for "gluebucket" and such, or putting links in filenames to avoid scrutiny. This is an ongoing issue in the fandom, and it has not ended since then either. Brave Anons have visited the IRC and broached the question repeatedly, to no avail. Regardless, the fandom carried on with its little innovations and stories were still shared, despite the trouble. It began in earnest during the Halloween thread of 2020 (which, looking through it, you will find ample reference to the deleted posts). Into Fall of 2020 the fandom persisted through this new, annoyingly overbearing moderation, with more modern fandroids emerging in the Fall of 2020 and the inflection point into 2021- Sally, Wendy and Dixie to name the three largest, and in that order. October 2020 also saw a new OP emerge (as the earlyposting was still happening beforehand) who took it upon himself to make a thread very, very early to outmaneuver the early poster. This OP also used the patreon comic early to facilitate this, which is a practice the previous OP, Gosling Anon, refused. I'm of the opinion this OP is the same OP as the one still making threads today, with some tweaks here and there, given the continuance of the using comics before they're released. Anyways, in terms of at least thread-making, this has been the status-quo for the past year and a half of threads.
