>>24860823- I purposely obtained an obviously hacked 6IV Ditto from a giveaway thread on /vp/. Subsequently, I used the subject Ditto to breed dozens of Pokémon for competitive use. Further, I distributed hundreds of breeding leftovers (obtained directly from my use of the subject Ditto) over /vp/ forums in exchange for other trainers’ Pokémon and items.
- I employed the services of cloners to clone a shiny Kangaskhan and a shiny Delphox, holding an Ability Capsule and a PP Max respectively. I subsequently personally distributed 30 of each Pokémon (60 total) via /gtsg/ in exchange for other trainers’ Pokémon and items.
- I needlessly attached my in-game name (IGN) or a recurrent nickname to posts on /gtsg/ for no other purpose than to gain notoriety within that thread and, by proxy, within the /vp/ community. However, I did not effectively use that notoriety to attempt to mitigate negative behaviors or affect positive changes within any /vp/ community. As examples, I did not take an active stand against things like: distribution of knowingly hacked Pokémon, aggressive and abusive posts aimed at other trainers (e.g. shitposting), or space-wasting thread posts that were clearly unrelated to Pokémon.
- I actively participated in and encouraged Pokémon trading in the /gtsg/ IRC chat room in lieu of the /gtsg/ thread, which unnecessarily reduced the publicly obvious trading traffic that is vital to a giveaway thread.
- Throughout my posts, I unironically behaved in a frivolous manner unbefitting of a serious member of any community. More significant examples include excessive use of emoji, symbols (i.e. hearts), and typographical stuttering.
