RISE ABOVE DRAMA: BUILD A STRONGER COMMUNITY
I've been running this chatroom for about seven months now. In this short time, I've seen plenty of outsiders try to stir up conflict or bring us down. This isn’t unique to our community—it happens everywhere. And I get why they do it. If I were in their position, watching a new chatroom thrive while mine stagnated, I might feel the urge to tear it down too.
But here’s what I’ve learned from running this community: drama is a trap. You can’t always predict who will try to stir trouble, but you can control how you respond.
And the best response? Silence.
Many of you already know this, but it’s worth repeating. Silence is the most powerful tool against all forms of drama.
I’ve faced both small and large-scale conflicts, and in the past, I wasn’t mature enough to handle them properly. I lashed out at people who provoked me, not realizing that’s exactly what they wanted. When you’re angry, frustrated, or even cornered, your instincts push you toward retaliation. But that’s the worst thing you can do.
I made that mistake. I got mad. I wanted revenge. And looking back, I see that it was the worst decision I could have made.
The Illusion of Drama-Fueled Communities
Ever noticed how drama-filled communities always seem active? Don't be fooled. It’s just noise. There’s no real connection, no meaningful discussions—just endless cycles of conflict. Over time, the troublemakers grow up, move on, and those communities become empty shells.
In contrast, our community thrives on something deeper. We genuinely care for each other, support one another in difficult times, and foster positivity. We may not always be as active, but the moments we share have meaning. Low activity doesn’t mean decline—it means we’re growing in real life. Some of us are already working toward our dreams, becoming functional members of society.
That’s why I’ve always believed in this principle:
"It is better to have one person working with you than three people working for you." — Dwight D. Eisenhower
And I’ll admit, even I got caught up in the hunger for activity and overlooked what truly matters—friendships, bonds, and mutual respect.
How to Handle Drama: A Simple Guide
Let’s say a random person enters our chat and says:
“This community only thrives because it stole members from my chatroom.”
What should you do?
The old me would’ve lashed out. But now? I know better.
The answer is simple: Ignore them.
These people are fishing for a reaction. The moment you take the bait, they win. No need to reply, no need to upvote or downvote. Act like you never even saw the message.
This is how real-world leaders—celebrities, politicians, and major organizations—handle baseless accusations. The moment you engage, you validate the lie. But by ignoring it, you strip it of power.
CITADEL: A Community Worth Copying
Believe it or not, CITADEL is a trendsetter among chatrooms. Of course, drama-based communities won’t admit it, but if you pay attention, you’ll notice something interesting:
Many of the features I introduce here end up getting copied elsewhere
I’m constantly brainstorming ways to improve your experience. I don’t have time to spy on other chats or steal their ideas. Yet, others are clearly watching us, replicating what we create. Some of you have pointed this out to me before, and I see it as a huge win.
We might not always get the recognition, but we set the trends.
And that’s the biggest flex of all.
So, this means we are always in the center of attention. There might not be enough people here but the ones who are here, you all, are genuine people.
One wrong move and we become a laughing stock. Honestly, because of me, we have gone through a shameful period. However, I have grown, I have learned. No more of the same mistakes. Avoid drama with complete silence and ignorance. I’m trying my best to let you guys know the secret to a long-lasting community with long-lasting and meaningful friendships being made along the way. Of course, if outsiders try to cause trouble that violates the base rules of the community, they will face moderation actions but for harmless but alluring, tempting traps, we have to ignore and stay quiet.
Let’s come together to build something meaningful.

CT BUTTON:
This button allows you to change the color of usernames and links. Click/tap on it and enter a hex color. Other color formats are not supported.
BG BUTTON:
This button opens the chat background customization panel. You can choose from sample wallpapers or upload your own. Only .png and video formats are not allowed, and the file size must be within 5MB.
MC BUTTON:
This is the chat reload button. Since our chat has many features, reloading the entire page—especially with a poor internet connection—can be frustrating and disrupt your experience. Instead of refreshing the whole page, use this button to reload the chat thread and reduce lag.
GW BUTTON:
Similar to the MC button, this button takes you to the Gateway thread, where we post invites—especially for mass invitations. To keep the chat flowing smoothly, we created this thread specifically for sharing invites and welcoming new members.
STAR BUTTON:
This button provides information about badges.
BELL BUTTON:
This button opens the notice board. Some notices are too long to pin in the thread, as they take up too much space. Instead, we post them here for better visibility.
NOTE BUTTON:
This button opens the music playlist available for the chat. Play it while chatting to relax and enjoy the vibe. :)
PETAL BUTTON (TEMP):
This is a temporary button related to the current chat theme. If the falling sakura petal animation is distracting or uncomfortable, click/tap this button to disable it.
