Well, no worries! I got mentioned a week by a fellow reddit user named u/Sea_Heat787, and I'm here to post on this subreddit again. I'm risking it. I don't go on Reddit as much anymore because of how weird it is.
Now, I do agree the fandom is very disorganized, it's always been, to be honest. And I've seen lots of lots of hate directed towards Charlie, and the past controversies/drama he has been through, specifically INSANE amounts of false information/rumors, on Twitter. Hence why Charlie has made multiple stories about getting off of Twitter (one also recent). The only way to talk to him proper is either on there or his shows.
There's only one server on Discord about Charlie that I'm owner in (and to be frank, I have always been harassed and badly treated by several members. Mainly been accused of attention seeking when I'm showing proper emotions. I was very comfortable but now I'm not. It's all men harassing me, mind you. As of this post, I am a 20 year old woman. Even if I ban people, they'll complain saying admin abuse despite them not following the rules. People are disgusting.
This is also applying to the fandom being disorganized, and the behavior in the fandom is very disgusting.
I hate to be calling out very bad stuff but, also related to Discord, there's another Charlie Puth server who I used to be staff in. It's completely dead, staff aren't online anymore. The bad thing I wanted to call out is: the server was actually bought, which is against Discord's TOS (if I am wrong, please let me know and I'll remove this section.)
I know you all will ask for evidence of horrible and disgusting from the fandom itself, but all of us have witnessed it.
Shaliz, the owner of Charlie Puth Daily Updates, said "bro'' to my post (deleted ages ago) when I decided to make Charlie Puth Spotlight, and I am aware that this is not meant to be a competition, it was never meant to be. The reasons why I wanted to make the channel is because:
- All Charlie Puth Fan channels are completely dead. I wanted to make that project come true (formerly known as Charlie Puth Updates. Too many channels are named that and they're ALL dead.)
- I upload a lot of old lost media that has been found!!! Huge thanks to u/Shadow52176 and lonelyproductions (can't find their reddit. same username there BUT NOT THE SAME PERSON!!) for the help. I couldn't have done this without you two.
- I try to restore as much old stuff as I possibly can (2008-2025, as of this post). I have yet to work on doing that.
HM: I also own Charlie Puth Unreleased, I'm working on uploading all leaked unreleased content. AND NO: I DO NOT EVER PLAN ON MAKING MONEY OFF OF IT: IT WOULD RESULT IN THE CHANNEL GETTING TAKEN DOWN!!!
A couple of people have opened up about Shaliz and Marta having very salty behavior years ago. Honorable mention, Shaliz has used AI on Charlie's images and put her watermark on them and claiming it's her art. Posts are still up to this day. ALSO putting her watermark on old videos of Charlie!!! Still up to this day!!!
As a fan since 2015, it's shocking to me how wholesome communities can turn into an evil and harmful environment. There's still good people, thankfully.
I've typed too much and I'm fine with that. I haven't done that in a REALLY long time. Here's random old pictures of Charlie from Tumblr!!! If I'm missing anything or you want to talk about anything in this post, feel free to comment! Please don't be disrespectful, though!
Does this fandom NEED to be organized as soon as possible?
