An important update:

Due to a specific person being a complete child, comments are going to be screened by default.

This is only temporary, and I apologize for the inconvenience- this is going to be a pain in the ass for me, too, but multiple people have come forward about fears of doxxing, and this is the only way to make sure any doxxing is contained.

(This basically will force the doxxer to make a DW account to post any doxxing attempts unscreened, and will let me more reliably report them to DW staff/authorities.)

Again, I apologize, and will be working to unscreen comments as fast as possible, but I'm only one person.

(Vasemod has had some personal issues come up, so I am the only mod atm. Please bear with me until this bit of annoyance has passed.)

Sorry for not including anything with the initial post.

Screenshot of Weevil's ban: https://archive.ph/5usdp
Weevil saying he was emailed by staff listing everything he'd done in response to his appeal: https://archive.ph/4kJkk
Discussion of the timeline of events: https://archive.ph/le5Il

If I need to include more detail let me know.

The timeline comes from an email Weevil received and shared in the group chat he made for the whole thing.

A few people that are friends with the people involved got mad at someone uninvolved for saying the rules against block evading were there for a reason which was funny. It's not directly implying guilt or anything, but it sure looks suspicious!

so weevil didn't offer any proof of what staff said then?

As in proof of what staff accused him of doing? If that's what you mean, he apparently provided it in a group chat. I didn't see it.

sa

yeah that's what i mean, the email staff sent to him with the details. sus to only share it privately while riling the whole hellscape up in defense of this "false ban"

also, wasn't vynne was involved in some harassment stuff before this? i might be mixing up names

re your last paragraph: hey that was me

yea the amount of people in g1 hell just casually saying "well even if it was block evading, who cares?" and "well does block evading REALLY matter with dragons?" was concerning enough that i couldn't not say anything.

i wouldn't necessarily say that they were mad at me, but i was surprised that no one was else was like umm hey guys that's pretty weird to say. i think they were possibly misunderstanding that i wasn't saying that weevil 100% harassed anyone, but that block evading to FR = harassment and it is a rule for a reason and it applies even when you don't like the other person lol and that just because YOU think no one was harmed doesn't mean the targeted person feels the same way

i do not like alyxsandre even a tiny bit, but i really don't like that people seemed to have an attitude of "well we don't like that person in here so clearly weevil and co couldn't have possibly done anything wrong". if she gets banned from this though :) would not be sad

but no harm no foul, everyone was being pretty normal even though i was the only one going against the grain 👍

G1 hell has some people in it who really have a "rules for thee but not for me" mentality, and when they like someone who gets caught breaking the TOS, you'd be amazed at what lengths they go to project blame onto others or another entity rather than take responsibility, and realize that everyone needs to abide by the TOS when they sign up.

So I don't see anything wrong with your comment, especially since you were an outsider who didn't know Weevil's situation beyond secondhand information. It was just a common sense statement about how the site works and not directed at weevil it seems.

We're both in the same boat. I only lurk in that server and only saw the way people jumped on your message when I backread. You're more charitable with your interpretation of how they saw your message than I am, they're very cliquey in there and anything going against what the usual group are saying gets mocked by them elsewhere lmao.

I'm of a similar view on Alyxsandre. If what one of the users was saying is true and they've got dirt on Alyx that could get them banned as well it'd be the funniest FR drama piece of the year to me. And probably helpful for Alyx, too, because whatever gambling addiction-attention seeking combo that drives them to spent all that money on scatters for already-amazing dragons cannot be sustainable.

Your proof is literally less than nothing. Actually, it's more damning than anything. And I'm no fan of A.

It does look like an open and shut case of conspiring off site to block evade to buy something from a blocked user with extra steps.

What it sounds like to me for the timeline:

W buys dragon from A, gives to S? a week later. (I'm guessing A had S? blocked.)

A notices this and chooses to block W, which is reasonable. A probably shrugged it off at this point, but it would stick in memory.

W wants dragon A is selling, hands 17K gems to unknown party who bought dragon a few hours later(most likely for that price or less, if there was a payment involved to get the user to break the rules for them.

Unknown party sent dragon A sold to V over a week later(which screams know I'm breaking the rules, so I'm waiting longer this time to finish this so maybe A doesn't see.)

V sends dragon to A's blocked user W within 2 minutes of receiving.

And you still think staff is in the wrong?

This is an open and shut case. And a gratuitous one at that. Ban deserved, sit down and shut up.

I just completely glaze over someone's post as unimportant if they don't use names

i am not the same anon, but my guesses at the usernames from lurking in g1 hell when the bans were discussed
w = weevil
a = alyxandre
v = vynne
s = not sure about this one? eternallysacred is the only one who has the letter s in their name

Re: weevil and co

(Anonymous) 2023-09-28 11:15 pm (UTC)(link)
hey yeah please type out the names next time. Reading this quickly became a chore. :(

I'm not in the discord. I was just going off the image that was linked here and filling in probable details that are how I would, as a logical person, translate what I read here https://archive.ph/le5Il

I know none of these people, and at least some, they had no definite name. And I was too lazy to type out the names that were written. I assumed Alyxandre was [person], so that's A. Weevil is W. Vynne is V. S? is the "Sacred I think" person.

It was a blind summary of what they linked as how I read it to explain how fucking stupid their "evidence" is to anyone not involved.
