Past scene drama (why ARN was renamed)

Since I explained this to a couple of people who asked me in private, I figured I could put it here if anyone is interested.

"I swear I really respected Rei at first (Luma was originally named "AuReiNAND" to reflect that he was the author of the original project). I was also with him on a Skype group, CTRDev, and I was chill with him, he genuinely seemed like a nice person and we got along. Then at some point he started the "bloat meme" and discussions about my code sucking increased, he even brought it to reddit where he made a post about it (but then CTRDev members convinced him to take it down). Then one day someone added a fake account ("DILIGAF") to CTRDev, who started insulting me in a very bad way. CTRDev is a private group, so it was one of us. That day (it was at the end of April) I had just argued with Rei and he misgendered me as well, I have logs of the argument and of DILIGAF:

After this was over me and Tux investigated it, Tux used some Skype IP tool to determine his IP, and we sent it to GBAtemp staff. The outcome was that it was most likely a GBAtemp regular, since the IP blocks matched; coincidentally it was a person we found out got close to Rei: http://i.imgur.com/75pbunM.png (he also had stuff about Luma being bloated in his GBAtemp signature).
So with everything figured out, we exposed Rei to the CTRDev members and he left saying the group sucked.
Some time later (one month I believe?) Rei asked Ryan to take over CTRDev's then admin's account (he either had the password, as this person claims to have given it to him; or he guessed it but it doesn't really matter) and take over and spam the group. And so he did. http://i.imgur.com/JHWcnRL.png
Other than this, I was shown screenshots of Rei shit talking me on the Discord 3dsch*** group (3dsch*** is where the "DILIGAF" person came from, they just seem to be a circle of people who hate me for some reason).
I called him out because I just had enough. As it can be seen in the screenshots in the other blog post he knew this would happen before my github was messed with and the transphobic things were posted here. And Punderino posted lots of things that Rei uses to say (like that I copy Rei's work and stuff http://i.imgur.com/SYaO9LY.jpg ). He even used transphobic expressions that Rei uses towards me (I'd rather not repeat those). So even assuming Rei didn't have a hand in the hacking, he definitely had one in "setting him up" for this; I already saw once on the wiiubru IRC that Ryan and Punderino repeated Rei's insults."

Its not any one person continuing this. The mentality "I'm just responding. They are the ones continuing this," isn't gonna work. People need to just stop, regardless of what is said, and stop trying to get the last word in. I posted spiderman, what will you do to be the bigger person?

I honestly think it would help if the 5 blogs and the off topic posts in the ReiNAND thread were all deleted. No one would have a place to discuss it.

Hopefully the mods have had enough too.

Anyways, um, BTW, what happend to my avatar? Isn't it supposed to be blue? I just noticed it right now, Sorry.
 
@el_gonz87 rei may have had absolutely nothing to do with the hack, but he is fully responsible for the grief that aw receive from it. Obviously whoever was involved attacked aw because of the situation that rei created. Everyone says that this happened so long ago and aw should just drop it, but aw is still having to deal with the chaos rei created. And he's the only one that can stop it. Not by "haha I try to drop it but luma devs are fags <3 x3" but by giving a real public formal apology. This shit won't end until that happens.

That's all he has to do. If he's such the poor victim, and good guy that's just been vilified, then why doesn't he just give her the fucking sorry that will end this, instead of gloating with his underhanded comments and playing victim? It won't cost him anything. It only takes a moment, and it will save aw from the grief she's STILL getting.

If he doesn't do that, then as far as I'm concerned, hes an egotistical child, and I will have no respect for him.

So, perhaps I get something useful out of the comments by offtopicing.

Reasons why I should update? (I think last time might have been several months/years? ago)
I mean, would someone mention the most relevant new features since then. I'm sure I'm missing something, only want to know what.
 
@WeedZ i think the point is none of this should be public. Why should GBAtemp be witness to all this drama?

That's the part I don't get...

O
The problem is everyone keeps posting here after it pops up on there notifications that someone posted on this blog.We should all just leave this at a stalemate.This is becoming endless reply bait without the reply button.
 
@astronautlevel - The mods need to be alerted to clean that crap up. I'm honestly surprised they haven't already. Has no one been reporting or....? I mean, bashing IS against the rules here....

@astronautlevel there is such thing as being a bigger person you know. If it is reported, the post will be deleted, problem solved.

I hate reading about this in various threads.

@el_gonz87 What do you think would happen? They would talk it out? It would just become a insult-fest and the chat would die, with no apology but even more hatred.
By it being public, users are bound to keep arguing & supporting both AW and Rei but also make things like this go on for pages until a truce or apology has been made. Imo it's more likely for an apology to come from it being public than private.

Dear maorninja,


It has come to our attention that over the past two days, a person has somehow been able to access a few user accounts on our forums at GBAtemp.net. Shortly after, rumors started blossoming regarding a possible site/forum/database hack or a password leak. After an extensive search into server logs and lookup tools we have no reason to believe that any part of our site has been compromised.


At this point, as several people have suggested already, we believe that the reason this intrusion happened is because another site (an illegal ROM/ISO download site) was recently hacked and the password database was exposed to the public. Since a portion of our members was also registered on that site, possibly using the same password, this could explain the recent scare.


Even though we have no reason to believe our site has been compromised, we have taken a series of measures to reinforce account security on GBAtemp. Firstly, we have reviewed security on the server and all components of our site to make sure everything is up to date and secure. Some components of the forum software have been updated and following this update, several addons have ceased functioning. If you see anything that isn't working as expected, please use our Site discussions and suggestions forum to report the issue.


At this point, we strongly recommend you to change your password and enable two-factor authentication. In general it is good practice to use a unique and complex password, not just here but on every site you are registered to.


PS: your GBAtemp user login is maorninja@f***.no . Please log in in order to reset your password as soon as possible, and enable two-factor authentication.


The staff @ GBAtemp
This?
