Transparency Mass Ban - 2026-02-04

What about the modes? Will the original creators upkeep them or will they also wither eventually if it breaks?
Not really the most appropriate place to ask about this, but I have applied for Developer to hopefully maintain some gamemodes that I'm familiar with (and some-more if possible), I have some plans but I don't want to think about them too much since it's not a guarantee that I'll be accepted.

Anything to get that shiny forum badge, right?
This is extremely immature behavior. No one's participating in this thread to get a "shiny forum badge".

Honestly that gives me a little more hope for Red Sun in its current state all things considered. Even if it's not the same minds and thought processes that kept pre-fallout Red Sun's systems running, it'll hopefully ease worries about whether or not the server will be able to function post-fallout (provided you're accepted, of course).
 
Tohru,

Before you wipe my ugly mug off your website instinctively for now two reasons. I'm posting here one last final time for posterity and as a formal goodbye. There is also another tangential piece of information that is relevant to RatX that won't be much of a surprise, but it should be known anyway to anyone who is seeing this.

To be honest to you (all), even if you don't believe me or care anymore; I'm not interested in making another 2020 against you (I'll talk about this more). I would have rather seen you grow over the years. Everyone deserves a second chance after all. Many believed in your ability to do so as evidenced here. Even I was hoping as such, hearing you self-reflect and being remorseful to your actions towards me and others. Unfortunately you decided to still regress even now.

RatX
I won't name names here to protect identities: I've briefly talked to RatX before as a minor during my time in Redsun around 2020 or so. I also was a past friend of someone who also is/was (I'm unsure at this point in time) a friend of RatX, who also happened to be their "partner." This partner, unsurprisingly by now, was also a minor (who I thought was an adult initially) about somewhere between 14-15(?) at the time that they were mutually dating one another. I personally confronted RatX about this, which he replied to me effectively with "It's legal in my country, so why does it matter?" I told a close friend of mine where we decided to file a report to Discord. Supposedly my friend was supposed to be contacted by a Discord child safety ambassador (something like that) but never heard a word back. How typical of a shit company with a shit app... I wish I and my friend reached out to about this besides Discord, it's truly regrettable and I am sorry that I or my friend did not reach out sooner. I assumed and I believe my friend assumed that it would have been taken care of soon enough as well in the Redsun Discord. Not the case unfortunately after reading all of this...

2020
Red Sun has skeletons in the closet. Jon is the skeleton in the closet. He has been attached to every single major drama this community has had in its nearly 11 years, from its inception in 2015. I wanted him gone and this is the thanks I get. Life's great, eh?

Not true to anyone whose been in this community for several years, living proof right here. Frosty had nothing to do with 2020. Tohru, you have a habit of making yourself out to be a victim of others, rather than your own doing. "Everyone hates me and I'm literally Hitler to them" repeated ad nauseum. It worked a few times, It didn't work to your favor this time.

Anyway, I'll get this out of the way and the whys. This is likely an open air secret but I'll formally confirm that yes, I am the one who primarily compiled that zip folder and it was sent to 404 via an adjacent contact in Creators. Whom Tohru decided to retaliate by banning staff associated with the project after being removed.

What is not known to most is exactly why?:
My younger self felt horrendously frustrated at the state of Redsun. You couldn't enjoy the server without seeing someone in the Discord post a caricature of you hanging. Or being told that I have a 41% chance of going "poof" as a "joke" in VC. Or just the general hostility towards being just a rather blasé queer, despite them making up a part of the player base and staff. Not accounting the casual racism and literal neo-nazis that'd wander in without much resistance. I could have just left quietly to disappear like any other punchbagged queers that inevitably have been shoved off, but instead I decided to say "fuck that" and do something about it. It sickened me how many others were treated, I was tired of it continuing unimpeded. Tohru was the "chef" of the "kitchen" so to put it. And my, you did not cook.
So I compiled the zip folder to show Tohru's unsavory behaviors and what was tolerated for staff and the general population to engage in/ignore. None of it was a "malicious smear campaign" as you put in your announcements (and my ban reason), it was me posting the shit you put and let others put into your community with all the receipts that anyone else could have (mostly) checked with from the now mostly-defunct links that were compiled.

I did find some of my feelings about my actions mixed towards some things I choose to include, but nonetheless it was compiled to show a very unnerving history and patterns of behavior that the overall community engaged within through your own (in)action, even if some images and text in the .txt file may have been debatable to include. I ultimately do not regret compiling the document and disseminating it within 2020. The last time that I tried to after noticing your partnership with the Insomnia team resumed. I completely ceased after Frosty reached out to me (iirc) that it was excessive and overzealous since it's been over a year or two at the time. I should have recognized to stop by that point and inquire instead of assuming the worst, that is my only regret, and I am sorry for that.
I was informed by several other people that you were remorseful and that you regretted your behaviors towards me as well. I wish you weren't paranoid towards me when I attempted to connect with you, and that I wasn't still fearful of you in some regards, our communication could have been done better but what's done is done. I doubt you wish to speak to me in any capacity, I just hope you do not hold some permanent grudge against me. I've let gone of mine awhile ago.

With all of this being said: Social consequences are expected for the language and conduct you engage in and with whom you are engaging with or choose to associate with, regardless of your freedom of speech. Be a dick, be treated like a dick. "Pretend" to be racist, be treated as a racist.

Ad Infinitum

So, do I think Tohru is literally Hitler and is the worst person in the world? No, but he does like to act like one with extreme ultimatums to scare others into compliance when he doesn't get his way. Maybe he just want to be seen as one because it's easier than accepting the fact that people hate him less than his own self-loathing and are just plain disappointed and feel betrayed.
I just really really wish you would have grown out of this pattern of behavior by now Tohru, and I hope you eventually will one day. Get better, rest from Redsun, and go to therapy for these problems of yours, for your sake. This ain't a "it is what it is" moment. Redsun may chug along, your future friendships inevitably will not. You'll be here sooner than later yet again if you continue like this.

Ad Finitum
I'm glad for the fun times that we had everyone, and I'm sorry to those that I've hurt with my words and actions when I was a little alt-right shitter myself. It won't fix who I've hurt or what I've done, but I'd rather apologize than be a selfish coward. I love y'all, and I'm glad that I've met so many of y'all that are my friends now and the fun (suffering) that we had (endured together). You know where to reach me as I'm always available. I don't bite, pinky promise.

See y'all later,
bung
 
man the drama is so big i see people i never seen before also
Well it'd be for the best to address all the stuff brought up at time cause there's plenty of stuff stated so far with no actual rebuke. In the meantime did want to leave this since theres clearly some other issues regarding the transparency of bans...
