Painful decision about the Bal’Kar Hatchery telegram ch...
5 years ago
(¯`·._.·(¯`·._.· One with the Hive ·._.·´¯)·._.·´¯) Hey everyone...
It’s been quite the ride. The Bal’Kar chat is 8 years in the making, It was the foundation of our community that brought many of us closer together. Unfortunately over the years, It’s become a cesspool of unrelated cutsey uwu furwwy nonsense, along with a ton of drama over people I gotta be weary about.
It started getting out of hand a couple years ago when I moved countries from Australia to Canada. Which took away a lot of my time.
I’ve also been working pretty hard recently with my job, it’s been fairly demanding taking away most nights from me.
I just can’t manage a group of 120 in any aspect and I still haven’t gotten to the part where I don’t even have time to draw anymore. I’m too nice and I’ve let too many people trample over my creation to the point I stated seeing alternate and miscellaneous creations based off the original, sure I made the Bal’Kar an open species, but I never expected people to take the design and warp it into their own alternate versions then claim it’s their new OC.
I really wanted everyone to embrace the Bal’Kar for what they were initially. I opened the species up for that aspect of being part of an online collective. To embrace unity in a lust driven world that I wanted to create for people to escape to. A place that washes away those feelings of being lonely or unwanted in life. To finally embrace that monster you’d always convinced yourself you were. I wanted the Bal’Kar to speak for itself when It came to washing away those terrible self destructive feelings people get from time to time. Yet time and time again I saw people letting loose their personal life woes all over the public chat rather than focus on the Bal’Kars visual message and it severely took away from the beauty of these beasts of mine, long standing members slipped into the shadows, close friends started leaving and all our work over the years started to come undone and unravel.
We’ve lost touch on the original ideas of the Bal’Kar having this telegram chat up and running And I’m quite frankly over playing policeman/personal councillor to everyone’s problems in the chat. On all those fronts, Too many people playing victim. Too many people trying to be manipulative and twist my creation around their little fingers. And so now the chat has even pushed its creator away.
It’s upsetting. I feel a hole in my chest just thinking about it and I’ve even shed tears recently thinking about all the really good past time memories in the chats. But I can no longer give time to the Bal’Kar telegram chats. I was already at a stage where my presence was minuscule due to people’s behaviour in the chat, I can’t do this anymore, I deeply apologize to all who wanted to delve into the Bal’Kar and embrace them for what they are but I can no longer provide a chat with that in mind. People are making unofficial chats which has been causing problems with a BIG misrepresentation of the species.
Moving forward on things, leaving these telegram chats will hopefully give me more time to focus on creating more Bal’Kar content the way it was meant to be. I still have yet to make my Patreon account, my residency status has been put on hold due to COVID-19 so making my Legal Patreon account here in Canada for financial support is still in limbo.
I really want 2020 to just be over already. It has not been a good year for any of us and is causing people to go utterly bonkers.
Here’s hoping the Bal’Kar will make a triumphant return one day.
For now tho, peace out! And be nice in the comments!

I want 2020 to be over as well and I hope next year is better for everyone too.
And I'm sure the Bal'Kar will return, waiting for new members to add to the hive
No matter what happens I will support you and your species. It was a pleasure to be part of such an awesome community and even more to know an even more splendid creator. It breaks my heart seeing the chat being able to push it's creator away.
I hope someday the chat and the species can be returned to it's former glory.
What ever your future brings you, I look forward to it.
I wasn't a part of the chat; I didn't even know it existed. But to hear that this has happened infuriates me.
Hello Neox. I know we don't know each other but I've loved this species and didn't know these was even a chat about this wicked cool species as I've always wanted to be a part of it and make my Own Balkar. Really unfortunate there are assholes out there who run the things people enjoy to have fun and just be yourself! Hopefully I can be part of the Bal’Kar species and have one of my own once peace is finally restored.I highly suggest just taking it easy and so some personal stuff for yourself before making the final decision. I agree with some others fans here in the comments are saying that it should be a closed species so you and your close pals can enjoy. It would suck but if it has to come to those terms perhaps do it so you can flesh out your species more, develop it, and do much much more. I just hope I to can experience the Bal’Kar hive and be part of it. Overall have a good day and take it easy my friend!Just hoping you achieve your goals and re-claim your original idea on a better concept.
P.S 2020 sucks! -.-
