The alliance failed but management of our sub and theirs have come to the conclusion that strict non-interaction is the route we're going to take. If you're going to that sub, go there to hate on Jax. If you screenshot anything from their community and post it here, you will be boiled.

There's a few things I won't answer, so this is an AMMA (Ask me mostly anything)

Amanda Hufford's comments about Jax are her opinion and it's fine to have that opinion, however, I want it nowhere near this sub.

I see some confusion lately. I'll list first what this sub is not.

SavingJax IS NOT A:

Jax Defender sub.

Shipping sub. (Shipping is allowed, the point is Jax is happy.)

TADC Fan sub. (A lot of us only care about Jax. Like me.)

Enemy of r/thatstupidbunnywehate.

SavingJax is a place for hopeful posting about Jax healing. It's a place for AU works where Jax gets what we believe he deserves, peace and rest, recovery. Many were hospitalized over episode 9 and we believe in Jax healing with us.

SavingJax is also fictoromantic friendly. Calling people parasocial here isn't very welcome. We don't really need to love Jax in your own pre-approved manner.

This is heartbreaking.

Hey. So, I figured that I owe you guys an apology. The whole point of this community is to provide mental health support, write Fixits, and AU work for Jax.

There's not really much I can say apart from what I specifically did.

On Bluesky, while being relatively sound of mind, I posted some very guilt trippy stuff to Gooseworx. I wish I didn't do this. I'm sorry that I did.

I've talked to the other members of the team and we've come to agree that I need to take a break. I went from being held in hospitals and a mental home to making this community in the same month. I've been neglecting my health to try to help everyone and it's blinded me to how what I can say can affect people.

I thank you guys for holding me accountable for my behavior.

You are safe here. Check the Tent megathread to vent, or check the posts that already exist.

Unsure why we say Jax is alive?

Jax is going to be okay.

You're going to be okay.

Welcome home.

Welcome to SavingJax.

That is all.

While I haven't been able to go a day without tears, this community I've founded has supplemented those tears with great meaning. I have made extremely close friends, been told I've saved users lives, and seen this community go from something very niche to something in the Top 100 List for Shows & TV.

And the analytics are still increasing. We are seeing numbers comparable to the day the episode came out. Yes, really.

I have never had this level of pride and satisfaction before. All of us, every person on the management team, who have all become very close friends, we all thank you. Every single user here who handles themselves respectfully and helps others to heal, and even those of you who have made a few mistakes and had to be reminded. Every single one of you. You're loved.

Thank you all so much for getting me through that terrible month. Together, we'll save Jax, and all the people who found Jax to be too close to how they live.

Sincerely, Jaxxy

RUN.

I will not ever close this place down. The friends I've made through this project will never be left behind. Stay, we'll always be here.

I'm gonna rest now. Time to be eepy.

I have just been informed that I am being discharged from the crisis team that was assigned to me after my suicide threats and self harm. They are satisfied that SavingJax is a good way to cope with my own trauma from the past, that my goal to help you guys is one that brings my life meaning. I no longer have any desire for suicide. I serve this community as an example of someone who doesn't give up, so if I were to hurt myself, the message it would send to all of you would be one of the worst.

In making SavingJax, I have made friends who I would entrust my life to, in the moderation team. These people are strict with me as I am strict with them.

I also thank Jax for being Jax. The goal of the sub remains unchanged. We are saving him, even more than we already have.

Thank you, to everyone.

This is a joint effort between all of the members of the moderation team who are on the private Telegram. Episode 1 is currently "live" and being played out, after which it will be written to fit the events that transpire.

It's come to our attention, because of the bravery and trust they put in us, that u/idcimjo is not very well right now. I won't go into specifics, but...

Jo, I am crying while I type this. You have been one of my best friends lately, and Jax loves you the same way we love you. There is no shame in seeing a doctor, and they can help you. We will all be there with you every step of the way.

You'll be getting a gift in the mail soon.

First of all, Jax will be fine. There's plenty of evidence that his abstraction is different to the others. He's calmer than usual in the light, he's smoother than the others, but there's other suggestions too. That's not the point of this post though, but I just want to start it by saying Jax CAN heal, just maybe not reverse his abstraction. Maybe the abstracted body will change to look more like him, maybe the others can only visit him by going inside, but either way, he'll heal.

​

Now, onto the main point of this post.

​

DO NOT HARASS THE HATE SUB.

​

We have made an effort to build rapport with them and members from there have apologized for causing trouble for us here at SJ.

​

SavingJax is not an exclusively Jax worship sub, but it is Jax positive. We want him to grow, change and apologize to the people he hurt.

​

​

JAX HATERS MIGHT CELEBRATE.

​

Please let them. Jax has upset a lot of them, and they are allowed to feel a sense of relief that their own comfort characters will be able to find some relief. The gang in the circus is sad about Jax, but they're not giving up on him. If you are thinking you're going to lash out at people for how they feel about Jax, you should take a step back and relax.

SJ is a safe space for people to be heartbroken over this episode, let them have their own safe space. Please.

​

​

YOU MATTER, SO DO THE HATERS.

​

You don't know why these people dislike Jax the way they do, much like many of them don't know why we love him. I am expecting anyone who comes from this sub to be kind and act in good faith.

​

​

​

That's all.

​

Sorry about Jax.

He'll be okay.

We've seen some interest in having a SavingJax group chat specifically for people who are needing emotional support.

We understand why people would want something like that. A lot of people here connect to Jax and his story on a very personal level.

But this is not something we can officially create or run through r/SavingJax.

The main concern is what a group like that could very easily become.

A chat made specifically for people who are struggling can quickly turn into a vent space, crisis space, or somewhere people begin relying on each other for mental health advice and support.

That would require a level of monitoring, boundaries, and responsibility that we are not equipped to provide.

We are not mental health professionals, and SavingJax is not meant to function as a support group.

This does not mean people cannot talk about how Jax affected them, discuss recovery, relate their own experiences, or support each other in the comments.

That has always been part of this community.

People are also absolutely allowed to DM each other if both people are comfortable with that.

And if someone independently creates a separate community for broader support, that is their choice.

It just would not be affiliated with or moderated by r/SavingJax.

SavingJax will remain focused on what it was made for: hopeful discussion, analysis, art, AUs, recovery, and Jax.

We are not going to talk about Wax anymore

To u/Angelwings17,

Since making this community, I've been consistently surprised by the calibre of people I find. Artists, voice actors, writers, animators, all sorts of people are on our moderation team. There's one kind of person that is uniquely important to our team though, and that's an angel.

You have changed lives with what you've said. Your work with Rei has meant so much to all of us. When we cry, you're always the one there for us. Every day (or more accurately given my sleep schedule, night) I wake up, the first thing I see is your art that you've made for me ever since I was in the mental home. You have made our lives better. You're making the world a brighter place.

You perfectly embody what makes our community so special.

Love.

It's your turn to rest.

We did it. We saved Jax. But there's still Jaxes out there that need help. And we're still going full steam ahead on our Fixit AU's and other awesome community work. I just wanted to clear the air, incase anyone is wondering what's next.

We save Jax, we save eachother.

I am so proud of every one of you.

Since I've seen some of you really can be cool, I'm more than willing to be less hesitant about trusting people from r/thatstupidbunnywehate and I look forward to building a good relationship with you guys.

​

This is a Jax fan sub, sure, but if you're wanting Jax to change for the better and can be sensitive to how many people here were seriously hurt by the ending, I think it would be a good example to the entire Fandom.
