Welcome to the Daily Drama Report, Sandbox's number one source for juicy drama information! Should you have information on a particular bit of entertaining public drama then please write up an objective report on it and post here. Opinion pieces are also allowed.
The big rule here is that if you're going to write a report here, please do not become directly involved in the drama or else it is very likely to suffer as a piece. Opinion pieces on your own direct drama are allowed, however, as long as they're sensible and not just angry rants at whoever you disagree with.
Update: As per usual, the moderators have locked the thread.

Merlot is lowkey shady!

Welcome to another exciting episode of Mac's Rumour Mill
MeetTerry informed us all in his thread that Merlot is acrualy a mod and screenshots everything. Now This is not suprisig because Merlot was attempted to be modded by Bebop but faced backlash which caused the whole Jimbei take over thing drama.
WHAT I THINK I KNOW: There is no Bebop or Merlot, both users are actually ABC plotting to destroy the lobby. Think about it, Merlot is Bebop's hair and Bebop is the body.
After being expelled from the EpicMafia Song Contest (found here: https://epicmafia.com/topic/75425) user Tigermom took to the streets to protest against the actions of the EMSC host Aquarius. According to Tigermom, she was told that she was expelled from the competition for being a nuisance. No reasons were specified after that.
After some typical melodramatic squabbling between Aquarius and Tigermom (along with her supporters), local pariah Jimbei pointed out that Tigermom had not violated any of the pictured EMSC rules:
Aquarius then retorted that Tigermom was not, in fact, expelled for any of the rules. The situation is still developing so we'll keep you posted. You can read Tigermom's open letter here: https://epicmafia.com/topic/79049
Full moon coming up next week, folks, which means tensions will be running high here in Sandland once again! Wear protective gloves and remember to drink 8 glasses of water every day! Now for a message from our sponsors
the journalistic objectivity of this thread is rapidly decreasing
The only journalists here are Mac, Keemstar, Ace and I, and other than Mac being a smartass (which is to be expected out of him) we're all fine. It's simply the readers commenting and opining.
If I;m a journalist then why havent I been paid or listed as a player #WeDoItForFree

Merlot, I respect your opinion, but our opinions clearly differ. Also, I think anyone should be able to speak up for what they believe in. I relate to Jimbei a lot, personally, and it's how I feel on the situation.
to be frank i don't believe your opinion matters that much on this issue as a bystander. speaking as someone whose friendship was personally broken by val choosing to value this lobby more than relationships that were genuine and built by trust and compassion, i don't think you quite understand why people wouldn't want her here any longer. to be personally hurt by someone for the sake of "power" is sickening.
and i'm not the only one who feels this way; other people were hurt, and to have to deal with this presence within our community will only continue to hurt people. it will only continue to remind them that our relationships and friendships were never valued, and we shouldn't have to deal with that in the slightest. we shouldn't have to worry constantly about people betraying us for a useless title.
i get that you relate to her. cool. perhaps try realizing that isn't a good reason to defend her or what she did, or believe that the reactions of the community are too harsh. we have them for a reason.

My opinion is that Moomo is a bad user

I just want to say one thing because I see people bashing Jimbei. To be honest, if you push someone to the edge, you can't blame them for retaliating, I'm an example of that even though it's in the past now. I was only able to see red for the longest of time . I honestly think Jimbei shouldn't be ostracized the way she is and deserves a second chance. Sorry for ranting, it's just what I truly think.
you shouldn't really be speaking on matters that you neither understand nor are involved in. there are many different reasons why val was not forgiven by people, and they have varied across the board, but to act as she did and personally hurt many different people in ways greater than threatening their position on a mediocre mafia website is unacceptable.

MAC'S RUMOR MILL
Rumor has it that the current Sandbox background (pretty violet roses for readers from the future) was stolen off of a goth girl's tumblr blog by Bebop. Our sources from the netherworld have yet to confirm this, but we'll keep you posted.
