Due to a recent and alarmingly fast rise in drama and toxicity, I'll be taking a short break from Formiculture. It's a good site with good people, but recently I feel like things have been getting a bit too dramatic. Members are getting banned, quitting, accused of crimes, and spreading hate for the fun of it. I have no wish to be on a site where that sort of behavior becomes commonplace. 

 

I'm obviously keeping all of my ants and I'll come back to FC at some point. Could be as short as a week or as long as a few months, but I'll come back. I'll still check my PMs occasionally and I'll be active on the AntsDakota Discord server, but I won't update my journals or make/comment on posts. 

 

I'll still sell Mountain Myrmeculture products, just PM me if you'd like to place an order. 

 

I wish all of you the very best, and I hope the site can heal quickly.

 

Happy antkeeping!
