Actually, I have a few thoughts to float past you regarding that. If it's based on the frame skips, his story about the emulator might be true. In my limited experience using mobile apps on Blue Stacks and other emulators, I've found them to be extremely buggy. As in, not even working properly buggy.Let us continue the discussion of Galens potential punishment here. I am in support of a ban, based on what I consider a definitely doctored video.
Galens' prior argument, that this was due to stuttering in his game, does not work either. For one, I can find no other discrepancies in Galens' loading screen footage to suggest the game was stuttering during the loading period - the loading screen includes the animation of the neon light flickering, and I can find no sign at all that this animation is lagging or skipping frames. Secondly, in the alternate footage I've found, there have been numerous examples of videos of the game that evidently stutter far more than Galens' footage does, and none of them ever result in skipping the first few frames of the loading screen. Thirdly, if it was even hypothetically possible for frame skipping to occur on the loading screen to produce this effect, I would naturally be expected to have found it at least once by chance - yet, with dozens of examples, I can consistently identify that nothing even remotely similar has occurred.
Finding the original .apk file would be helpful to see if the scans were just a shitty translation or edited in by someone else. If the scans were edited in using a photo editing app instead of directly editing the game's script, it would be helpful to use a photo forensics app. Although the con with those is that you need the original file, no screenshots would work, as the program needs to scan the file's metadataActually, I have a few thoughts to float past you regarding that.

Another thought that occurred to me is, maybe it would be beneficial to find out where Galens got the copy of the game. If it came from a less than reputable source, or was in any way strange, it really might have just had that messy stuff going on. If I was going to use fake scans, I'd say I received them, not that I made them myself. Granted I'm weird; I can see through a liar but also practically can't lie at all, so maybe I shouldn't pretend I'd have it in me to use fake scans at all.
Update: what's more, it was a Chinese app with the regional restrictions bypassed on an emulator, another means for it to be buggy.
The universe didn't align to screw me over when I tried using three different mobile emulators either. They all just "worked" so badly I gave up and deleted them.Personally, I don't buy it at all. I don't think the universe aligned to screw him over. As DarkGrath put it:
Good point. Maybe in regards to PoC we should have just done that all along, getting all available official versions and searching the apk file for those texts, and checking if maybe Galen's copy has some content that shouldn't be there, perhaps early content that was scrapped.Finding the original .apk file would be helpful to see if the scans were just a shitty translation or edited in by someone else.

Why are you deleting comments questioning you? You keep doing that, silencing what you don't want said, it's a bad look.Reminder that non-staff members are not allowed to comment here unless they are making a report or are responding to an accusation.
For the RVR thank you for your input. Your points have been noted (which is why I undeleted some of them) but please refrain from further commenting without permission from a staff member since this report isn't directed at you or at NecoScaler.Why are you deleting comments questioning you?

Look, that's what our rules are. There's literally no reason for Marshadow or Random-Helper to speak on this issue. They aren't the accused party, they aren't involved in the situation. As far as our rules are concerned, I should have deleted his first comment as well. When that resulted in two additional comments and another unrelated user getting involved I realized my mistake there.when all you do is mass delete without letting them give their opinions on the matter, especially when they are responding to an accusation?
I think finding out whether the game's script was edited by an unrelated party that uploaded the apk, or if the scan was edited by a photo program is relevant information.Regular members aren't allowed to post in this Rule Violation Reports thread, unless they are making a report here, have direct involvement in a report, or have relevant information about a report that has not been brought up yet, in order to not derail or delay the processing of the reports, or worse instigate further rule violations. Repeated violations will be followed with a strict warning, followed by a threadban for one week to a site ban for some duration, depending on the severity of their conduct.

I did indeed.Instead how about tell them to get permission from staff members to comment,
If they have info that can demonstrate this possibility, I'd agree, but if they can't then it's just baseless speculation and not a good reason to interject. The video is incongruent with numerous others of the same content, multiple of which were in emulators as well.I certainly would consider an alternate possibility
For the record, I don't think Deagonx is manipulating the situation by technically following our procedures regarding message deletion. Some of these comments serve as testimonials to possibilities presented earlier- that doesn't provide new information and deleting them is, in my view, basically okay per our rules. Still, some new information has floated upwards (a very small amount, but certainly some), and so keeping current comments up for context seems right to me.Let us continue the discussion of Galens potential punishment here.

My understanding is that he is a community manager and translator helping with the global release, but didn't work on the Chinese version which is what is currently available (aside from some closed Betas of the global version, which comes out in December).a game developer or similar (?)
I don't think a ban is necessary for that alone, although I stand by a formal warning and keeping a general eye on DMC for more suspicious activity.I think that Sevil was likely just trying to help, in lack of better options given the rather extreme situation for him and his friends, so I do not think that he should be banned for asking a game developer or similar (?) a few questions in this case.

I'm fine with not punishing him but he should be told to stop. He's already asked numerous times.
I'd say a warning for Sevil to stop the pestering would work, since he hasn't received any sort of warning before and this is very strictly against our standards
I suppose that a mild warning seems fine then, yes.I don't think a ban is necessary for that alone, although I stand by a formal warning and keeping a general eye on DMC for more suspicious activity.
Yes, that is a mitigating circumstance.If indeed what Galens did was flat out forgery with these scans (which wouldn't surprise me that much given how versus battle jargon a lot of the lore dump was) then I'm ok with a permaban given how egregious this is for a site all about indexing verified statements. Personally I'd advocate for Sevil to get a warning at best in regards to asking the staff on the discord server to see if the scans were true or not since he's at best the messenger in this situation and is just trying to make sure they're legit and not forged in any way.
Mild reminder to mild warning at best to Sevil would be fine in this situation.If indeed what Galens did was flat out forgery with these scans (which wouldn't surprise me that much given how versus battle jargon a lot of the lore dump was) then I'm ok with a permaban given how egregious this is for a site all about indexing verified statements.

Dummy for me - some people with ample free time should do this some day earlier.Good point.

As someone who's on good terms with the both of you I can confirm it's not derailment as much as it's a misunderstanding between you guys.
