Glad you asked.
Basically the Perfume fandom in the west all stated with
>Perfume City
>Perfume fan site was created for the western fans, Perfume fans flock to it
>Perfume city is great but many Perfume fans were 4chan users and one day old fags decided what would it be like if we made a Pefume thread
>Perfume gen is created after people decided its good
>Perfume city dies eventually and the forums are nuked
>Perfume communities communal hub is no longer
>Guy create Perfume Discord as a new communal hub
>cool guy who does minimal moderating
>Guy eventually gave very little explaination for why he was quitting but set a vote for who would be the new mod
>new mod was a pretty big faggot but people got on with him
>Guy was even new to the community but was pretty passionate
>Guy becomes new mod along with another guy
>First guy IMMEDATELY becomes draconian and purges people critical of perfumes latest album
>Purges people for defending the position of sexualizing perfume (shit like saying yuka has nice legs will get you a warning and saying anything but sorry massa would get you ban)
>Purges most people from Perfume General save a couple who fall in line.
>Over the years the perfume fandom shrank and I watched as few newcomers that arrived were practically ignored while Perfume Discord became a hug box for a small set of people who basically used the discord as the personal friends group rather than a fan discord.
>Other mod I mentioned gave up his mod possition and first mod made one of his friends a mod
>One day they decided to make the Downloads channel private and set the requirements to get access to it to being on the server for 3 months and having a member of standing vouch for you.
>I personally spoke out against this and I was finally banned.
>I wasn't banned sooner because I have a youtube channel with a couple hundred subs so I could get away with more.

That's the Perfume Discord and Perfume community in general.
