I noticed your Free Company has ties to the Gold and Glory FC and their event listings. In that case, you may want to take the time to read this: https://twitter.com/CagiCajagi/status/1373119809471324163 It contains a few allegations to the FCs leaderships practice of trying to police other FCs, such as threatening to ban entire FCs from participating in their events if they do not remove members -they- find problematic, and shady practices like banning people for questioning their authority.

Hi!

I am about to say a lot to say nothing and disappoint you, preemptive apologies for not wading into this. Detailed lack of commitment below the cut.

However, there is a limit involved. So I apologize, that today, we are not posting an event info or piece of art. Today, I will be going over some allegations that individuals whom were removed are trying to use against us, and having to provide names and context.

This. Is factually incorrect. The individual in question, is Ashe, leader of the Roses’ FC. Ashe was not banned for not banning Ciri. Ashe was removed from G&G events due to two reasons.  1. Accusations of pedophilic reddit moderation. 2. Her FC failing to abide by the rules set forth when I ruled on the above. For context. 

This was the ruling I gave, following those accusations against Ashe which could not be -proven- sufficiently for my liking, or dismissed either. Their FCs participation in any G&G event, was contingent upon the other co-hosts comfort. 

We did not need to wait long for this to become an issue. Not long after, I was informed of the repeated actions of one cirina malqir. From the simple observation of the logs, and the talk with ashe, it was determined Cerina was above all else, not healthy to be present in blitzball and she was removed for the safety of other blitzball members. 

At this same time, Ashe’s FC was told they could attend an event, but not bring Ashe with. To this, they declared and argued they would bring them anyways. For this reason, I decided G&G would not be doing any events with roses. For that reason, I removed Ashe temporarily to not provide the appearance of us coordinating, and because their accusations were still, again. Not proven without a doubt, or disproven without a doubt. 

Ashe was not removed for not kicking Ciri. At the time, Ciri was not in Ashe’s FC. This narrative, is false. 

After this, I had assumed, Ashe would wait until after the next season before speaking to me. I was wrong. Amidst busy lives, messages were not responded to where Ashe asked for entrance. When told they would not be allowed in for the season, they chose to sneak in.

You knew this Cagi. You yourself, said there was proper reason given for their removal. 

Yes Cagi. You knew someone whom had been banned, and was evading our ban, was in blitzball. You knew what character they were, and you said nothing. As a referee, someone who helped make blitzball happen, you kept quiet. 

You knowingly went behind our back and betrayed our trust. That is more than enough reason to remove you. 

Again. This is false. No one has ever been banned just because their ‘teams didn’t like them’. 

Don Coconero is based off Don Corneo from ff7. We thought the name was not too subtle for it to be missed. Secondly. You are discussing monetarist RP in Ul’dah. No one, is at any time, forced into any RP by G&G. If someone does not like RPing goofy monetarists who fall on their face and take bribes, you are not being forced to do so. 

When I remove someone and ban them, I am not required to respond to their every whim Cagi. I work third shift. I work ten hour nights. If I miss and forget something, it happens. But no one is -owed- my time. I make it available out of a belief it is important to communicate. But if you have shown to me, a duplicitous nature, petty dealings, and assholery, I am not required to waste my time. 

G&G is not the community. We do not go around demanding people remove others from their events. You were banned from our events. Please stop making it out like we’re trying to witch hunt you. 

We chose to grow from that incident, to become pro-active. We terminated that individuals membership when it was clear who they really were. I assumed responsibility for the FC, and have been leading it since. Ashe was removed over concerns, and their behavior. Cirina was removed for her behavior. You were removed for your behavior. 

You chose to try to take part in cancel culture, without logs, only words, because you knew the logs are not on your side. You know, your behavior was inappropriate. You willingly knew, you misrepresented events in your post. You waited until blitzball started, to try and cause the most issue within our community. 

Please move on with your time in ff14, and find joy in a different group or community. But you are not welcome at anything gold and glory hosts.

I wake up this morning to @for-gold-and-glory pretty much proving the aforementioned points by myself and Cagi yesterday. There’s big talk about doing what’s right by the community and keeping people safe and this or that, but it all boils down to instead keeping people othered and being given a target to bandwagon and look down on, accuracy and evidence be damned.

Aedwen brings up past accusations as a “true” reason for removing me from collaborations and events, but nothing else to provide an accurate image. She could have mentioned how any issues with Reddit came up long after I closed my account. She could have mentioned how despite accusations on Reddit existing in the first place, a long-gone purge of the site provided no actual evidence beyond hearsay. She could have mentioned how she spoke to someone completely removed from the Roses at the time who explained the situation as well and vouched for my own discussion with her. She could have mentioned how Roses and Gold & Glory worked together for the past year or so with no issues and positive interaction. But she didn’t. Because like everyone else involved in this situation, it’s much easier to just paint someone with a certain brush and slander them across the internet.

Aedwen and Gold & Glory are well aware that, though I took part moderating a hentai subreddit aimed at petite women (surprise from the brothel FC owner, I know), I divested myself of the community when it began taking part in questionably legal, potentially-lolicon content and a lack of proper moderation from others. Despite knowing this two years ago, and knowing it now, G&G is clearly content with perpetuating hearsay on its own rather than providing the community with the full picture.

That’s right, they’re messaging people in game, asking them to check out the twitter post. That’s harassment, by the way.

Last year Ashe showed up at a blitzball party and just stood on the lawn, staring at people. She was asked to leave, as she was making others uncomfortable. And she didn’t, she remained there for hours. 

You’ve absolutely flooded Aegir’s DMs with threats and nonsense. And the three of you have snuck into events on alts just to cause havoc. 

You’re a stalker and a creep and you should absolutely be ashamed of yourselves. I saw you at the opening ceremony on Friday night. Why come at all? There were plenty of RP events going on at the time that you could have enjoyed. It’s because you’re an absolute creep. Just truly, you’re vile. 

As for defending your honor. Any doubt that you were a pedophile left my mind when I read the log Lepus posted last night, in which your own defender, Cagi, says “psychology in context is important, and someone with those desires needs help, not hatred.” 

How dare you tell my friends they must help a pedophile. That they are not allowed to curate who they are exposed to online. 

Last year Ashe showed up at a blitzball party and just stood on the lawn, staring at people. She was asked to leave, as she was making others uncomfortable. And she didn’t, she remained there for hours.

“Last year, Ashe attended a Blitzball rave for her own ex-team, the Koban Crushers, because that’s what teammates and fans do–support their team.” That’s what that was meant to say, right? And yes, I was asked to leave, despite doing nothing but talking with ex-teammates and having a drink. I won’t deny standing outside the house… off the lawn…away from the property, either. To which I proceeded to tab out for the evening. But telling the truth wouldn’t have made me look bad enough, right?

You’ve absolutely flooded Aegir’s DMs with threats and nonsense. 

“You’ve absolutely flooded Aegir’s DMs with requests to please get in touch and stop ghosting you”. That was that one, right?

All those “threats”? Yeah, I did message him a lot. Literally months apart.

I saw you at the opening ceremony on Friday night. Why come at all? There were plenty of RP events going on at the time that you could have enjoyed. It’s because you’re an absolute creep. Just truly, you’re vile. 

The opening ceremony where I was in gold & blue, and waving glowsticks, and talking to the people beside me, and shouting the Crushers’ slogan in turn with other fans? That opening ceremony? Couldn’t possibly be because I enjoy the event despite your FC’s involvement, and still had fond memories of taking part, and still enjoy Ashe’s old team.

As for whatever Aedwen and Cagi talked about, I have no idea. I’ve never spoken to Cagi about previous slams until this blew up again. I made my point regarding that in my last post.

But again, this isn’t about me, it’s not about “demanding” RP. This about what a clique Gold & Glory has become and how they treat any player somehow deemed “unworthy” of the massive control they have over a large part of the community, and every post in these notes by one of their members is making it clear why Cagi finally reached the end of their rope and why I felt the need to contribute.

@ Anyone else. If any folks are even looking at this, Googling their names finds plenty of warnings and other shit posted about Ashe Zahra and Cirina Malqir from different sources. And no, this is not just about Cagi/Eses Fafa or Ashe Zahra, because one of the screenshots is a “Cirina M.” messaging random people about this current call out in game. They can’t claim individuality on this. These three are all together on this table.  Review evidence, and draw your own conclusions about how honest their claims here are.

@for-gold-and-glory Y’all do amazing events. Keep up the good work. Stop feeding the trolls. They’re just going to keep coming back and dragging this out. I think Lepus dropped the evidence that was needed already. Cagi helped someone evade a ban and broke trust, Ashe tried to evade a ban that looks like it was initially just for a season and was a dick about it, and Cirina was banned for stirring other shit. Not sure if you know, but you can send tickets to the GMs any time they show up and refuse to leave. Enough complaints from enough players and they’ll get removed from the game. If I make your events, you will have my axe.  @ anonymous, Cagi, and Ashe, and whoever Not cool to drag up past shit that has been passed around already to try and excuse your own fault. You’re just using any low blow you can think of. Deflection from you being wrong to something they did wrong does not make you right. Fuck, if I read the logs right, the bans were not even permanent until you kept being dicks. So you being banned is your own fault. And it proves they learned their lesson about disassociating with problem people. I’m not responding again. I used an instant made account because I’m throwing my two cents then I am going to go back to Raiding, RP, making my Blitzball games, and will likely not be opening Tumblr again. You’re free to try to refute me, or you can let it go, stop dragging this out, and move on. For both sides, this isn’t worth the further negativity you’ll get if you keep going.

I’m happy to post the private message or whatever I sent them, though I can’t post the Ask directly since Tumblr doesn’t let you view those. If this language constitutes being combative or harassment though, I don’t know what’s wrong with this community. Well, more than what already is clearly wrong, anyway.

RULES & MORE INFO below the cut~

“The Velvet Rose” is a major FC on the Balmung server that, for years, has been under the spell of a vile, manipulative narcissistic abuser. Please inform people who may be at risk, share this to everyone you know, and hold Cirina Malqir publicly accountable for her long track record of horrific abuse.

It’s… pretty fishy the lolicon angle was what they “made up” to go after her, meanwhile she’s involved with someone allegedly sharing lolicon and ERPing an underaged character (and apparently getting incestuously r*ped and impregnated by her newly born oviposition bestiality raptor baby tf)…

The read is long and the tales of Ashe’s complict abuse are worse.

Ashe

https://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodestone/character/2248981/ Ciri

They will gaslight the shit out of you, they will purposefully sow discord and position themselves to be a victim, and always surrounds themselves in cronies who will blindly defend them in spite of terrible testimony and evidence. They send out these people like their personal flying monkeys to cause problems and spread vileness when it suits their needs (and I assume sometimes, just for a laugh.) And yes, some of these problems they brought to our table were also pedophilia/pursuit of minors. This was ages ago, and the problem still persists so I imagine they are in fact a career offender at this point.

I was on of the moderation team 15(?) years ago in that community that had to collect logs and manage a victim when they went after a player who was a minor for sexual use, in addition to the endemic drama.   

Their toolkit for victim blaming and then playing the victim after shit-stirring drama hasn’t changed.  This is the same MO they used when they were banned so long ago: Minimize, blame ,harass, smear, deny.

Ignore them, ignore their lies, move on with life.

They’ve known and enabled/been enabled by Ciri for more than a decade.  I never had to deal with Ciri personally because we stonewalled them out of our community for the same behavior they’re engaging in now, but the two have been joined at the hip forever and are unlikely to ever stop such narcissistic codependency.

As said elsewhere: You stop abusers by dragging them out into the light where they can’t hide their offenses.

Read the reblog/additions to this post, they’re a wild, ugly ride.  

“You can’t ban me, they (the 13 year old) consented”.  

Which still leaves a sick knot in my stomach.

I’d rather not relive that, there’s a reason civil services has such a high turnover so that’s the last of it I’m going to address on Tumblr.  If you need me my DM’s and Discord are open, but I sincerely hope you don’t, given how filthy this shit balloon spray is.  I’d much rather it miss you.

Furthermore, I’m not entirely sure what you’re even implying they’d consent to, given again, the platonic RP situation of an archmage and apprentice.

“The Velvet Rose” is a major FC on the Balmung server that, for years, has been under the spell of a vile, manipulative narcissistic abuser. Please inform people who may be at risk, share this to everyone you know, and hold Cirina Malqir publicly accountable for her long track record of horrific abuse.

It’s… pretty fishy the lolicon angle was what they “made up” to go after her, meanwhile she’s involved with someone allegedly sharing lolicon and ERPing an underaged character (and apparently getting incestuously r*ped and impregnated by her newly born oviposition bestiality raptor baby tf)…

The read is long and the tales of Ashe’s complict abuse are worse.

They will gaslight the shit out of you, they will purposefully sow discord and position themselves to be a victim, and always surrounds themselves in cronies who will blindly defend them in spite of terrible testimony and evidence. They send out these people like their personal flying monkeys to cause problems and spread vileness when it suits their needs (and I assume sometimes, just for a laugh.) And yes, some of these problems they brought to our table were also pedophilia/pursuit of minors. This was ages ago, and the problem still persists so I imagine they are in fact a career offender at this point.

I was on of the moderation team 15(?) years ago in that community that had to collect logs and manage a victim when they went after a player who was a minor for sexual use, in addition to the endemic drama.   

Their toolkit for victim blaming and then playing the victim after shit-stirring drama hasn’t changed.  This is the same MO they used when they were banned so long ago: Minimize, blame ,harass, smear, deny.

Ignore them, ignore their lies, move on with life.

They’ve known and enabled/been enabled by Ciri for more than a decade.  I never had to deal with Ciri personally because we stonewalled them out of our community for the same behavior they’re engaging in now, but the two have been joined at the hip forever and are unlikely to ever stop such narcissistic codependency.

So, fellow Aeon RO players, I’m calling you all out. Luthiah Reyrmor ( @steel-vigil), Kidd Hammersmith ( @pom-friend ), and the man of the hour himself, @flamesonhammersmith. Kidd got one thing right in that I did assume Flameson was behind previous attacks, because, see. Despite his innocence, despite his profession of abuse and “fear” of me, Flameson is utilizing that time tested method of *projection*. Flameson Hammersmith neglects to mention the time *years ago* when the entirety of the Roses came out to the Grindstone to watch a member compete, and he sent “panicked” messages in fright to my FC leader at the time. He also neglects to mention even before that, when he somehow caught wind of my character name in the first place and harassed my previous FC leader, who ended up being pushed to threatening legal action should they be bothered any further. Flameson Hammersmith neglects to mention the time, *fourteen years ago*, in the age of free and easy phpbb boards and the like, he outright *doxxed me* with carefully curated and organized sections and subsections.

Flameson Hammersmith neglects to mention that when I talked about my past to people involved with the Mujihigi without naming names, I received DMs knowing *exactly who I was talking about* immediately, so apparently the reputation precedes him.

So yes, I have, and had, plenty of reason to suspect a certain white-haired roegadyn behind these recent actions–but I trusted his FC leader when we spoke, and said nothing. Clearly a mistake.

For a month I’ve sat here and other than the discussion I had with their FC leader, I spoke to no one. Yet all three of them are content to add, and add, and add. All three of them are content to paint a non-sexual RP relationship between an 18 and 17 year old pair of players as involving a wordly grooming abuser. All three of them conveniently ignore the supposed “traumatized” player joining my own RP group for at least four years or so after they conspired to see me ejected from their own community, which is hardly the behavior one would expect from a victimized individual–unless, of course, you’re apparently @steel-vigil, @pom-friend, or @flamesonhammersmith.

I will also make it clear that the aforementioned player is NOT Cirina Malqir, who has NOT been involved with me for anywhere near a decade, nor did she have any part in this RP community. I have absolutely no idea what ass @flamesonhammersmith pulled that idea out of.

Whatever you want to say about my handling of The Velvet Rose and certain members or ex-members, that is neither here nor there. I made clear my thoughts on the disgusting things they’ve said about me in my last reblog of this post, but out of some modicum of respect I had left their names unmentioned until now.

I will not sit here in silence any longer and be scandalized by a FC full of harassment determined to dredge up fifteen years of false history when I was perfectly content to NEVER interact with a single one of them since I first discovered they played the game way back in Heavensward. I will not sit here being called an abuser and worse, by people who are determined to prove themselves bad actors, and do nothing. Do not tell me, @pom-friend, that you don’t want to start shit after ten years, when you dragged me into the mud in the first place.

We dont know nor care to dig up ancient texts of misbehavior of combatants that join. The only reason we even considered it would be him is because the wording we were given was ‘someone recently joined’ and it was the only fit. Flameson is literally only a combatant.

There are certain people, some involved in this reblogging such as the faceless coward behind @tremendouswhat, and others currently remaining unnamed, who have set about perpetuating the idea that I take part in certain unsavory actions. Now, I may allow for a whole lot of weird stuff in my life, but one thing that I cannot, will not, and have NEVER abided is the abuse of children in any form. The very idea leaves a sick pit in my stomach, and to have bad actors constantly dragging out something as simple as an anti-art-censorship stance and equating it with something as vile as pedophilia is something I will not stand for.

(art made by the fantastic @savothesewercat)

Menphina Madness is well under way, now, and regardless of how the first two matches go, here’s some facts about the second set:

Kugane, the closest thing there is to a home team this season, are going to absolutely smash the Ul’dah team, no questions asked

The Kugane Koban Crushers have Yojimbo as their icon, and therefore cannot possibly lose.

Ul’dah have too many sponsors to fit on their uniforms, all of them from a desert city. The only reason they can even swim is that they paid an outrageous sum to build a training facility in the desert, rather than have that water end up as drinking water for the city. Countless people, unable to afford drinking water as a result, died horribly.

Ul’dah is literally built on corruption and greed. KUGANE IS BUILT OF HONOR AND DETERMINATION!

Ul’dah has several players disgustingly overconfident in their skills despite being too rich to have ever done any serious work in their lives.

Kugane is paid just as well as Ul’dah because they worked the hardest and deserve their money. Ul’dah’s sponsors are players because the only reason many even play is for selfish self-exposure!

If your waifu isn’t a part of the Koban Crushers, your waifu is trash.

The last time anyone from Thanalan actually had a legitimate swim was when Mhach pissed off the elementals so much they summoned a flood. Not a single person who stayed in Mhach was a good enough swimmer to last. Why expect anything different this time?

Kugane’s uniforms are way cuter.

As we begin the Menphina Madness blitzball tournament this evening, I’d like to take a moment to thank each and every one of you, players, sponsors and cheerleaders alike for participating and supporting each of your chosen teams.

Even though yes, I  realize this isn’t a ‘real’ sport or even what many would call an esport by any stretch of the imagination, this is still a team effort on each of our parts.

As such, in the name of good will and good sportsmanship, I have elected to do the following:

For every goal scored by any team that is NOT Limsa Lominsa, I will donate 1 dollar to the Extra Life, a charity which supports children who are afflicted with cancer. (You can find more info at https://www.extra-life.org/ )

For every goal scored by Limsa Lominsa, I pledge to donate 3 dollars.

This will be up to a total of 100 dollars for the entire tournament.

In addition…

Should 4 ( At the time of this post, we currently have 4 individuals who have also made this pledge, but we will be happy to accept many more than 8 sponsors!) other individuals within the FFXIV community – any individual, not just those who are members of the individual teams – choose to likewise make a pledge to donate some amount of money (the amount to be determined by them) for each goal scored by their favorite team…

… Then I will donate an additional 50 dollars to Extra Life in the name of the team who scores the most goals for the tournament.

The particular fundraising team we will be donating to will be the FFXIV Content Creators which can be found here:  https://www.extra-life.org/index.cfm?fuseaction=donorDrive.search&filter=participant&searchTerm=ffxiv+content+creators

If you or someone you know would like to make a pledge, please feel free to direct message me via discord at Dylan Thorne#2556.

Thank you!!!
