TL;DR

In 2019, I started a friendship with Shoshana25 after being reassured by Goddess Annea that “all known members are trusted” when posting about my safety concerns in the sanctuary. Two years later, I stumbled upon old thinspo posts from Shoshana25 with broken links to weight control, feederism and “teen”porn. Annea lashed out that she is “really appalled and shocked that no one in this thread reported these [images] to [her] already“ deflecting blame onto the members. Contrary to her claims, our investigations revealed that Shoshana had received a minimum of 5 reports, 9 hidden thinspo posts additional to the 22 images manually “[redacted]” for nudity, and 3 written warnings on the thread in question. Additionally, we discovered that they were already accused of predatory behaviour in 2019 by two members, which Annea silenced and Shoshana was only temporarily banned from MPA but free to roam EDC and successful exploited multiple members for three more years, one of which regrettably took her life in 2021. We will not be releasing the final messages from this member but will be releasing Shoshana's reply to demonstrate the severity of the dangers online.

The 29th she spends her day victim shaming me and Poppy in the "Let's Talk" thread linked above in full timeline.

In the process, Annea added ban notices for Shoshana, Trouble-in-paradise, and AdrieneJames ban notice but did not add one for Feengirl even though we had attempted to get them banned in Oct 2021 and December 2021.

The last date Shoshana/Trouble in Paradise was active in November confirming they were banned in 2021 when I reported them.

But the last time they were seen active was on Jan 10th, 2022.

Opps! Annea never told AMG about Shoshana in November until I made a public stink about it! Sister site alliance and all. "Predator prevention..."

It is ironic that I was banned in the same post as Shoshana. At least AMG didn't perpetuate the "26 minute internal DDoS" lie since they themselves experienced their own DDoS in 2018 right before EDC launched as it took them down for at least a day... But yeah, Tech Goddess Annea lol fixed it in 26 minutes... not like she was in adminCP 30 minutes before the "DDoS" and likely just crashed the site while trying to rearrange forums... oh no. A 26-minute "DDoS" with a video confession that never was released.

Both Goddess Annea and Ponii (early moderator) warned Shoshana of posting nudity and redacted nude images from the thread. Unfortunately what they had left were the images of minors. Here are some examples of broken link attachments as they no longer exist on the internet:

Again, Shoshana tested the limits after moderation with c/p related images. The right image photoshopped to appear younger did not pull any reverse image search results and instead the unaltered image of a teenager can be traced digitally. This comparison indicates that the image posted by Shoshana was likely trafficked among other CP as it no longer remains on the internet. It is commonly known that predators will photoshop images so the subject will appear younger. For the duration of the thread there was no further moderation.

**TW SUICIDE**

After reviewing all of Shoshana's content over the decade it is suggestive that her goal is to encourage members to take their own lives.

Shoshana's reply to the member who committed suicide:

Annea resetting Shoshana's password for EDC through email:

Later Shoshana claims to not be able to contact Annea "from the outside". We suspect that Shoshana was looking to restart with another identity as Trouble-in-paradise claimed that they were suffering from an ED.
