I did see a couple of people making statements along the lines of the meme will surely die! if it doesn't grow and change to accommodate what more people want these days. The flip side of that is that, if keeping the meme alive requires allowing the focus and majority of prompts to shift towards something Trashmod doesn't care for, are they obligated to keep the meme they created alive for the sake of other people's interest? My feeling was no, they aren't. If it's more important to Trashmod to keep the meme focused on sexual violence than to keep it alive, then that seems perfectly fair to me. Especially when Trashmod was perfectly happy to link to any other kinkmemes other people wanted to create to cater to other things.
Keeping the focus on sexual violence was clear to me from Trashmod's more recent posts. I can admit that just because I can't see how it was confusing doesn't mean it wasn't confusing for other people, but at some point continuing to grumble about it starts to seem a bit pointless.
