I really am trying to just move past it because I'm happy with how active and attentive she is now, but I can't stop thinking about just how fucking weird everything about the whole ghosting saga was. Especially how nearly everyone was trying to act like it was totally normal and nothing was wrong. Vanishing without a word for weeks at a time is absolutely nothing to worry about, apparently. For the other members it's probably because they had some idea of what was going on with her and had some minimal contact, but it's still odd.
On Gura's part, I'd like to think it was just her mind being elsewhere with the combo of busy and health hort plus her simply being unaware of how people were feeling about her silence, but the thing that always throws a wrench into that theory is the fucking chat filters. Why on earth did she add "stream" to the filter? It's one thing to ignore people asking about what's going on, but to actively try to stifle it from happening at all?? Such a bizarre move, and obviously one that backfired because it immediately spawned all the "ztream" stuff. Maybe it was her manager or something who did that, but I doubt it would happen without Gura's knowledge and approval. It's all just so fucking weird. I want to understand.
