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."

Nice. Hopefully this will be the end of the flame wars. All this hacking does is separate and harm the community.

And yes I was the one hacked in the post who had their account used to spam our group. Regrettable password. EVERYONE PLEASE USE TWO FACTOR. Thanks :)

Shit like that makes people not want to be in a scene, and some people being jealous of other people is disgusting. The scene strives the more lines of code that are written. No matter who is writing.

Don't be an asshole. Help this community. When someone forks you, or someone who's work you like. Support BOTH of them. Not attack one. This isn't a war. Whoever you choose to follow as far as using their code, is fine. Just don't bash others for trying something different.

Also read up on GPL before you say someone steals your code.

At this point I'm still an outsider, but I still stand by Aurora and everyone in the Luma team. I love those guys. They made my last year. :)

I wish I could say the same for the Reinand team.

Maybe Switch will be better. Unified system, unified community? One can only hope. :)

Onward to a better future loves.

This shit is way past uncool. And it pisses me off to no end.
I really don't get why it ever has to get to the point where people breach passwords and dox people for lulz.
ESPECIALLY over something as minor as a CFW fork.

Someone definitely deserves some bans for this shit.

And... am I reading this right? Superman from Chaos was involved in this? That's something that definitely doesn't make me want to use their site...

Sorry to be a grammar Nazi, but it's supposed to be a comma, not a period. Also, I like your thinking.

@WiisleyU
Like your way of thinking.

@CeeDee
Agree. Also, is that sentence a quote from Sonic the Hedgehog, or is it my immagination?

There are some pretty shitty people in this world I suppose. Again sorry you have to deal with these peope. Its not worth much at all but a lot of people support your work! I hope you keep going and making an amazing cfw even better!
 
Wasn't some code from old reinand stolen and used in Gateway? If so, after this shit, I've lost any little shred of sympathy I may have had for him over that. Bad people deserve bad shit to happen to them.
 
Stolen? How can it be stolen when it's opensource? Yes, they didn't provide their code, but that's about it when it comes to stolen.
