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."

He used a source I will keep unnamed to grab my old passwords.

This is now a patched hole thanks to 2FA.

Yeah.

:whip:

Some people are just assholes.
 
Since some people seem to misunderstand the "stolen code" thing. After the drama i mentioned on page 4 or 5 happened, AW threw a fit and took my name out of all the headers of AuRei and changed its name to luma. After I pointed out that's illlegal due to the GPL3 license, they tried to dispute the legitimacy of the licensing. From there, mostly RN fanboys were memeing about it. I assume AW left out that part since it doesnt fit their narrative. I think you @Aurora Wright should either edit the blog to tell the full truth or just leave this drama outside of the scene. It's only hurting your image and im trying to be civil about it <3

^I'm having a lot of trouble fitting those pieces together into the puzzle^
 
GPL requires the GPL header on top of files to be left intact, but you never had that header. If anything your header "All rights reserved" confusingly goes against the GPL license ("All rights reserved" != "GPLed"). You are still in the credits and we credit each function/patch individually (I think there's almost no RN code left by now, except for the k9l function which was largely changed too).
On page 4/5 you completely omitted the DILLIGAF stuff and reduced the whole thing to a misgendering lol (fun fact, I didn't even mention your misgendering, which by the way is continuing even now since you keep using "they" and "their" for me while even rocks here know I'm a she).

@Reisyukaku @Aurora Wright - Honestly, you are BOTH kinda hurting your image by continuing this argument in public. No disrespect intended, but can we friggin drop it already? ....damn.

@Aurora Wright Are you sure you aren't just splitting hairs because you have an unreasonable vendetta against me?
@el_gonz87 Yea, it even showed it was forked till they magically got rid of it :P I'm surprised they were kind enough to keep me in the credits, lol

And so scene drama does what Nintendon't.
I mean creating chaos and stalling CFW development. (because I have a crystal ball today)

@MadMageKefka I'm way behind this obviously. Im mainly here to fill in the rest of the truth that was conveniently left out. Because its not nice to lie on the internet, lol.

@MadMageKefka No offense, but I think that Aurora should just keep this up so people can get to know what's going on. She also (probably) needs the support she can get.

I agree with @sarkwalvein and @MadMageKefka, this drama just looks worse and worse for both sides. Looks like lots of stuff went down.

Everyone should just move on and put it behind them. Let's all go back to enjoying CFW :yay3ds:!

Again, there's no stolen code since you're credited globally and even in the function(s?) which have parts of your code remaining.

as much as giving credit is good, being bad is bad, etc etc etc. Let's just take a step back and realize that this is drama over an open-source free project on a portable video game system. Can't we all be friends here?

I'm aware of that, i'm talking more about the drama over the code itself. I'm 100% against anyone harassing anyone here.
