What the actual fuck is SG doing right now?

0

For the past several months, each day I’ve come here I’ve had a harder and harder time understanding what the site’s leadership group is doing. During this extended period there have been a lot of SOTD being featured of SGs from years past. Today is no exception. I’ve written about this before and my question is still: why?

@1956firebird I’m glad I’m not alone in recognizing this weird shift. Two days ago, it was a set from Feb. 1, 2015, yesterday a set from November 17, 2008, today a set with under 2k likes from 6 months ago. I want to be clear that I think all these women are deserving of our celebration and adoration, but they’re also all SG veterans long since made officially pink.

Maybe there’s something I don’t know about the situation, but it sure looks like a cruel and unjustifiable vendetta from the outside. It breaks my heart for Starphire, who, to her infinite credit, soldiers on and continues to produce lovely sets despite being apparently blackballed.

Facts. I noticed that some popular insta models went pink here after posting 1 set and nothing else and they are not even a bit alternative. Menwhile some girls post for 10 years and stay hopeful. So idk how much do I wanna spend my time and money to make exclusive sets for the site

If you look at the old sets from back in the beginning, it’s clear the site really wanted to lean into a gritty, edgy alternative aesthetic. I know things change over time naturally, but they’ve definitely gone away from that in the past 5-10 years. At some point you have to wonder what the goals are now.
