I joined last year barely know about some of the old menaces of the forums which have been banned or have gotten their accounts deleted. Tell me more about these guys pls.
RB1 made a bunch of alts and that was kinda funny
I know about Rb1 and couple more guys like the wary person, scoobert and TwoLeggedAbomination
wary has gotten better imo, im on friendly terms with them
many people will tell you otherwise tho so dont take my opinion as fact
rb1 also lwk isnt too bad
scoobert is still horrendous tho and tbh twoleggedabomination is from before my time so ive little to say there
ive been here since wom days and i still dont know what rb1 does to get banned originally
like he get permabanned for alt making but like. what was his original sin cuz ion think hes on the same level as other permabanned user?
anyway there’s yrni0 aka mithridatise aka whatever the fuck else he went by
he started out okay, then gradually devolved into a self-important aggressor who literally admitted to me in dms that he was tryna be an asshole
he didn’t get banned tho he voluntarily quit
deronchepem would spam react EVERY post and it was unbelievably annoying so he eventually got sniped
colonsque had suggestive art of a fictional character (biologically a minor) in his profile banner
aphoticgoblin and jimmyjimmy believed sweaty pvp and ganking were the only true way to play ao and that anyone else wasn’t a real player, and would go out of their way to harass people about it
spicytuna said happy birthday to warmwater who didn’t reply so spicytuna crashed out and drew help. the dog (a character warm drew as sort of a metaphorical standin for himself at the time) being hung
fridgeuchiha used to just spout random bullshit in a very attacking manner, usually within the pvp rhetoric like jimmy and aphotic
deron was john whimsy but the fun-hating villains (the mods) shot and killed him for that
Didnt two legged abomination post how to make a pipe bomb or something
Why?
rb1 posted leaks i think
lordgaltron made a famous quote that changed the course of the forums for years.
Am I worthy of bearing the title of a menace
here’s rb1’s main btw
I wanna try and remember the whole story
I don’t know what started his ban but I’m taking a guess it falls in line with “Morden” account ban reason. RB1 was banned for sending patreon leaks + making fishing macros (and the pinging vetex 'n whatever like that), this ban being made by Artanaris and other moderators who sided with her so it was also difficult for RB1 to even be unpunished; I think a moderator even asked RB1 to not make alts for a year and he’ll be unbanned from the game but that never happened since halfway through the process, another moderator completely disallowed it. Since this was basically sent in stone, any instance of RB1 ever coming on the forums, discord, wiki, and game is an immediate permaban or account deletion
(Added in Wiki since RB1 was also a huge contributor to the Arcane Odyssey fandom but got permanently banned from that fandom for posting patreon leaks, though theres probably more reasons than just that. I’m pretty sure this got Vetex involved)
I think the first alt RB1 made was a way to communicate with the moderators but from what I know, that eventually turned into “making alts every day and night”. This was also followed up by the fact RB1 wasn’t unbanned the moment AO released since during that time, a majority of the punished would be unbanned from the game, RB1 being the outlier so RB1 was essentially permanently banished from the community.
As for what forumers think of RB1; it’s pretty spread out from what I know. The newer generation of forumers see RB1 as some “evil hitler guy” since that’s what active forumers (like me and other darkaners) describe him as and some say “he’s a pretty fun guy to be around”, and then theres the older generation of forumers (who aren’t connected to darkane by any means) who see RB1 as an immature person without a life.
Also people figured out moderators utilized IP’s to ban accounts so whatever yo IP is it’s probably connected to your account and the moderators can see it lol!!!
though this might’ve been removed I think, since someone actually got headless IP address because of this I think??
public enemy #1 im crying
RB1 is the only person I know who happened to get affected by this ![]()
He’s also the only person I know who is permanently banned across the AO community for “life”
(That’s if I’m excluding all extreme-serious situations like pedophilia)
And selectorch[1] made a whole fucking exposé video about him lmao
Nah I’m pretty sure it’s just a standard discourse feature
I haven’t been posting here for long but I have been interacting with it in read-only mode before the game even came out so I am aware of all the latest forum hitlers besides Scoobert
what even happened to him? ↩︎
when I watched that video at the time it released it felt so overly exaggerated ![]()
He talked about him like he was the leader of the fucking cartel
During that time RB1 was part of a discord server called darkane (the OG version, not current one) and most of us became friends with him and knew his entire history. So, when the video released it just felt weirdly overexaggerated and bias. I personally didn’t see whatever he did as a big deal other than the “leaks” since that was a high-priority issue, and everything else was just water found in the ocean.
As for the wiki part I need someone else to go over that one since I got zero idea why RB1 punishment there was so significant unless the entire controversy was just RB1 posting patreon leaks. Some people on the wiki see RB1 as a virtue while some see him as a sin
