Hey Kupocon, considering you are being called out for quite serious allegations and are only ‘addressing’ it somewhat through a podcast that is pay walled for patreons…
Not a smart move team I’m just saying.
(Trust I will be saying more later btw because I have THOUGHTS)
Okay let me start this of by saying this Kupocon:
Why would we email you about concerns and criticisms when people have previously;
A - been spoken to poorly in response
B - seen no change or attempt for change from the event after previous contact
We would like to take accountability and sincerely apologise to Seiken Arts for using a screenshot not intended to be seen outside of a friend group on this account.
It had been provided to us under false pretenses. There will be no repeat of this failure to verify information
Patreon September 2022 - Update #1
Openly discussing organiser Alex Maine's personal
conflict with a known voice actor unrelated to the event itself and inviting personal bias to influence standing with the event and community
Unprofessionalism from Alex Maine of Kupocon:
This thread covers patterns of behaviour mostly involving guests broadcast on public and Patreon social media channels.
KupoCon should take serious consideration into hiring PR management for situations such as these.
These changes follow criticism of Kupocon Central that have been partially addressed only within Patreon Chat, including acknowledgement for an task unable to be completed by attendees with mobility issues.
This was not the only accessibility issue faced by attendees.
As we mentioned in KupoCast, we're updating our accessibility policies to better assist our attendees. These changes include an expanded RTA system, accessible market tables, reserved evening seating and more: https://t.co/AQgmLDw7kg
Thank you to everyone who reached out.
Information is being saved and sorted to post.
The nature of the majority of information that we will report on must be treated with the utmost seriousness and care to respect those affected.
As such, updates on this account will be slow.
The Updates channel is the main information base regarding events and merchandise. Unfortunately also littered with jabs at other conventions including MCM & Kitacon
Information posted will contain screenshots of wiped or paywalled information documenting unprofessionalism surrounding Kupocon and consistent failures to create a safe and accessible environment. Please look in #Kupocon for others accounts of previous events.
