Ok, let's ignore respect for the people who curate a community you love and go for pure selfishness. If you create OC, you rely on the moderators to keep down the shitposts so you can get your delicious karma. If I make something new, but people upvote the shit faster than mine and I get lost, I'm going to find somewhere people will appreciate my efforts. Therefore, if the mods are unhappy, I am soon to be unhappy.

Here'sy theory -- people aren't actually that upset about whatever drama was going on. They're in it for the drama.
