    Dear in-person cons: the sticking point about getting back to what you perceive as "normal" is that normal wasn't working *then* & we all saw it laid bare

        So many innovations were and are still being made during our *current in progress* pandemic for sheer necessity's sake. A hopeful byproduct of the past 12-18 mths was that these virtual pivots and accommodations are far more inclusive and welcoming to new & diverse populations

        Charging ahead eyes & ears closed to erase the past year because of a bottom line is a big fuck it and fuck you to your customers. You are choosing revenue over people. Even after a year where you likely reached MORE people than you ever did w/regular by rote in-person cons!

        Why can't you bake into your con structural improvements when it's clear they *are* improvements? When it's clear they *do* introduce new people to the hobby? When it's clear it *can* bring you more money in the long run?

        Shrugging back to "normal" is so goddamn short-sighted. Yeah maybe you feel you have no choice because you'll lose the farm if you don't cash checks this year. But "normal" is a short-term fix that won't save you long-term

        And if you didn't try to innovate or learn anything after this past year, then maybe your same old, same old shouldn't be preserved at all

        When you loudly belch out "anything goes" at your con (no masks, no testing or vaccination protocols, not even enforcing basic Covid guidelines)? You have curated & moderated your space to invite and include a very specific, careless, toxic demographic

        You're welcoming those that are proudly anti-mask or anti-vaxx. The ones that proudly politicize public health to use as a cudgel against others trying their best to be safe. The ones that proudly have less decency & empathy for others

        It tells me you aren't interested in hosting a safe event in any respect. Not just safe from Covid. But safe from aggression, harassment, bullying, hate speech, etc

        @Gen_Con + @bggcon + others: stop viewing "moderation" as a strictly online issue. Moderation isn't just followers or comments on social media. It's who you *choose* to attract to your conventions. What you say or do or DON'T say or do (like safeguard during a pandemic) matters

        And it's disgraceful that you pass that responsibility onto customers just so you can remain derelict in your own responsibility to host safe and ethical events

        You can't take a "submitted without comment" attitude with public health and safety, even if you are indemnified against consequences with boilerplate waivers

        Replying to @PobudaTanya
        Organizers don't see issues at cons as 1) structural or 2) interconnected because of how they curate (aka do nothing), which attracts by default white, cis, male. And because of this it attracts more of the same. Which perpetuates these underlying issues. Snake eats tail.

        Gen Con had to make decisions last winter so regardless of where things stand now they were always coming back regardless of attendee safetyhttps://twitter.com/tiffanyleigh/status/1339198867435302913 …

        Gen Con can't possibly know in December 2020 if Gen Con 2021 will run in-person, but they have to decide (make those deposits, cash those checks) now. It's a total moon shot. They hope tech & logistics are sorted – by external forces they can't control – by the time we get there

        Boggles my mind that the Gen Con braintrust doesn't realize that being pro-public health + allocating money and resources accordingly would make them *more* money now and later. Like, why not invest in current and future new attendees long-term by, say, building trust with them?

        It's clear that Gen Con didn't spend the year trying to make their con better by incorporating any innovations. They spent it crossing their fingers in ride or die mode
