# TL;DR
I received a tip on December 17
5 months ago a guy DMs multiple wizard's den project managers and admins that one of their maintainers runs a porn / hookup server linked in his discord bio. He turned out to be doing very illegal things.
In total 3 were DMed, all of which did not follow up on the report. It included multiple screenshots of users in the server that were underage, and one screenshot of the shotacon maintainer flirting with an underaged boy. Multiple other wizard's den staff were not DMed directly but were active in the server.
Wizard's Den demoted the maintainer but allowed him to remain in the server with the link in his bio, even promoting him from "experienced contributor" to "veteran contributor"
They claim that the initial reports were too insubstantial, that there was no way they could have known, and also that I must have withheld this evidence for 5 months
For reference, the time between me getting the tip and confirming this guy is absolutely a nonce was about 15 seconds. The time to having direct confirmation of illegal activity was under an hour.

# How did the world's most obvious turbononce become a Wizden Maintainer?
Before anything else: Yes, we reported it. If you have additional information regarding the illegal activities, you can report it at https://report.cybertip.org/
My name is Rane and I wrote this document. You can ask questions in my discord at https://discord.gg/ntDTAySHSv

Special Thanks to voidnull000

# 02/05/2025 Update
Plykiya has returned to Wizden and his PRs are being speedily cloutmerged. Example link:

# 12/29 Small Update
PJB made a vague blog post in relation to this and I have made a response post. https://hackmd.io/@rane/S1b11DyIyg

# 12/21 Response to Wizden Damage Control
Wizden has issued some responses. Their first defence is that we "held onto this evidence for 5 months."
I got the tip on December 17, only a day before this was published.
The only reason it took even that long was because we waited until we had enough information, such as his identity, for the police reports to be complete before this was published. It was IMMEDIATELY apparent that the tip was substantial and there is zero excuse for them to have not figured this out themselves when it was made known to multiple admins and project managers.

I did not receive any evidence that Wizard's Den did not receive 5 months ago. I simply investigated what they chose to ignore. Again, it was as simple as joining the server and searching 'underage' to see something was up. It took literally 15 fucking seconds to figure out this guy was a woodchipper-tier nonce and we'd certainly find something, and less than an hour later there was enough evidence to start a police report. So, the accurate statement Emisse could have made is, "We were tipped off about this 5 months ago, did not care to check it, and only responded after the tip was sent to Rane."

Here is a message I received from my source just now regarding the original report.

Emisse gives the reason they were demoted:

This makes no sense. So he were demoted for having that link in their bio but allowed to keep it there afterwards and stay in the server? Even staying long enough and engaged enough to be promoted from Experienced Contributor to Veteran Contributor?

Bhijn on why it wasn't investigated further: "There wasn't anything particularly damning at that time."

So, to Wizard's Den PMs, reports of their staff flirting with minors in a porn / hookup server is "not anything particularly damning." This screenshot was part of the batch sent to them.

MY SOURCE DMED SHADOWCOMMANDER DIRECT FUCKING EVIDENCE OF A GUY THERE SAYING HE'S UNDER 18? HELLO?

## Part I: The Chuds find a Somethingburger

**Plykiya**, age 27, is a prolific American internet user living in the state of Washington. The decision was made to save the demon's true name for Cybertips, as his IRL sister is involved and a probable victim. He is most well known for his work at the piracy website MangaDex. He doesn't appear to have stable work; the only streams of income he's brought up are OnlyFans, teaching English over the internet part time, scanlation stuff, and making websites for people's uncles.

There's 3 topics, basically, that he talks about. The first is "traps", "femboys", and so on, which would be fine if he wasn't doing Reiko shit. The other two are how much he wants to fuck kids and his little sister.


I'll spare you because the hundreds of messages going back years concerning both of these topics. Ask around and they'll probably be dumped somewhere by the time you're reading this.

Anyway, the somethingburger. He runs a discord called "Trap Fashion" which is mostly used for cybersex and hookups.
1) User turned 18 c. October 11, 2022.

2) Ply flirts with this user in his porn channel and links pictures of his cock.

I will spare you the pictures of his cock.

If this isn't enough, there's a continuing pattern of him just letting kids hang around his discord.

The other users there like "Subway Jared" or "Wenbroly" joke about it.

Even outside his Discord, he propoistions minors in other servers.

2 years later this user is 18:

Also, he would constantly use his 16 year old sister for wank material for internet strangers:

## Part II: The Vigilence of the Wiznerd


So, this guy got made into staff for Space Station 14. *He is still active in this discord to this day.* At the time, his bio looked like this. Also I just noticed the name "Youngerson." Dude, this guy's entire personality is being a nonce.


So, that cord was linked in his bio. Okay. Did they try googling?


He's mangadex staff. Not worth looking into, I guess? Wizden already were fine with promoting piracy since Jesse Rougeau. https://archive.is/VvqPs

Also they absolutely consider this below the belt but this entire thing would have been prevented if they typed his username into KF.

So, as for as hiring, Wizden have some plausible deniability and are surely breathing a sigh of relief. Except...


This message was DMed to multiple admins and project managers including ShadowCommander. Most brushed it off, the only response was from Kai Shiba.

Now, Plykiya *WAS* demoted to Experienced Contributor. But, I firmly believe that they were demoted for their involvement with Mangadex and not for being a turbononce. Here is my reasoning.

1) Their demotion of him lines up with the date that the legal proceedings against Jesse Rougeau in regards to their warez activirty escalated, and they of course then they *had* to at least get rid of *one* of their pirate ring staff. He isn't any wizard's boyfriend so he didn't get to stay.
2) They were not banned from the Discord. They were allowed to keep the link to their Discord in their bio. They were even promoted from experienced contributor to veteran contributor. If their demotion reason had to do with their Discord, they would have been banned or **AT VERY LEAST** they would be forced to remove the fucking pedo discord from their bio to continue existing in a space full of tens of thousands of retarded children.
3) Just me personally, if I got that DM about one of my staff I would try to substantiate it. I would join the Discord in question and search. **In all of 10 fucking seconds you can see this shit is nuclear waste.** No Wiznerd EVER investigated the Discord. They could not have.

So, Wiznerds are going to feign ignorance. "You're right, we didn't check out the Discord. We have no idea what was going on there."

Here is current Wizard's Den project manager Geekyhobo (and Frontier admin Kyuudev, not wiz staff but from SS14) in the server.


Close of associates of Wizards, such as Violet/wagglez, an admin of RMC under Wizard's Den project manager Javier Guardia Fernandez, were also active in the server right up until this was published.

*Wizard's Den knew exactly what kind of Discord that was.*

## Part III: Letter to Pieter-Jan Briers

O Grand Wizard of the Den, I know you missed me. I know we're not on good terms, but I do so wish to understand you. You tie your real name and your reputation to this project and you've given it over a third of your life. You, understandably, say you want to make a community palatable to normal people without the bad elements of Space Station 13. You, understandably, say you consider the entire hub an extension of your community, and everything in it exists only with your consent and approval. You, understandably, say that you wish to judge people by who they choose to associate with. Okay, we can work with this. SS13 chuds do not have a place in your world but it doesn't sound too bad, nor something that you wouldn't be proud to associate with Pieter-Jan Brier.

You could not find the world's most obvious turbononce on your own fucking staff. This guy's **ENTIRE FUCKING PERSONALITY WAS BEING A PEDOPHILE** down to his discord name and you couldn't root him out. People **SENT SCREENSHOTS TO YOUR STAFF AND YOUR STAFF WAS IN HIS GROOMING SERVER** and you couldn't root him out. This is Wizden. This is your direct holding, not one of the little fiefdoms of the hub. Pieter, I do hate you, but I don't want this to be the way it ends. You can have your little meltdowns about fictional character rights and nobody is getting hurt. But this is not funny.

You need to take some actions just for basic decency and self-preservation. I know you've got a Todestrieb to feed, but please keep the self-sabotage and wrecker stuff to silly things like whether voxboxes are racist. You have correctly identified that keeping around abrasive SS13 chuds might negatively affect the environment you want to create. But, you have a massive blind spot. You need to get rid of the SS13 ERPers too. You can't stop this from happening in your own fucking server that isn't even ERP, there is no way in hell you can wrangle all the ERP cats on top of the normal servers. You don't even speak the language of half of those servers.

Here is what you need to do. You need to either (1) Make Space Station 14 as a whole 18+, or (2) put ERPers in the same place as the chuds. There is nothing compelling you to advertise and support their servers, and, Pieter, it's all going to keep coming back to you.


***You yourself got groomed while underage on Space Station 13. Adult men had cybersex with me in SS13. You personally know many, many people you call friends that this happened to. We both know it's just going to keep happening.*** We can't stop them, but please, do some basic fucking harm reduction and just do not advertise their servers in your spaces. Do not facilitate this. Break the cycle.
