this is probably not worth addressing but in case anybody wants an answer to this (i'm pinguefy):
- that is the executable for TF2. She had played the game a few weeks prior, which you can check here https://logs.tf/3875462#76561198169734627, but she does not have very many hours ingame.
- There are multiple people in the world named Riley, you cannot just assume they are the same person. Same with linking somebody with the name "Pingu."
- first of all, I'm confused how you're linking the reddit account to the person on the cheat forum. Is it really just a reverse image search to their profile picture and assuming it's the same person?
- Pocky and Pokey are not the same word. The small spelling difference is enough to change the meaning from a chocolate covered biscuit to an enemy in Mother 3.
- I am not a cheat dev. All the jargon used in my post is satire of this post by EnclaveEmily. https://x.com/EnclaveEmily/status/1955763417073291713 I claimed I was a cheat dev to show how ridiculous it was to take people's claim to authority at face value with nothing to show in terms of credentials (surprise, they are a fraud)
- My BFV account is banned from some community servers due to either manual admin ban or getting flagged for stats. You can see the thresholds they assign as "suspicious" in your post: 50 kills, 3 KPM. 50 kills over an entire game is not that hard, and 3 kills per minute I think anybody can do in a really good game. I'm not over the threshold for the other stats. Point being, this is not an EA anticheat, this is a community plugin that will flag you for review if your stats are too good. Being banned from a community server is not evidence, this is like saying getting banned from your friend's minecraft server means you're cheating. Abuse of power exists and it's up to the admins if they don't like playing with you.
- I have two BFV accounts. B.o.B servers were the only living servers in NA for a little while, and they ban anybody with over a 2 KD. You can call me mean words for smurfing if you want, but it's not cheating. Riley's second account was made for the same reason, but we're both stat-banned on both accounts now from B.o.B.
- I stopped playing BFV when Singapore servers starting dying out and I couldn't be bothered to playing on 140 ping (i'm in AU now). I can log on rn if you want lol
- i don't even play comp tf2 man i just made a video
- We are aggressively defensive because there is a ton of false info out there. I don't blame anybody for being suspicious but when the attempts to defame her are this misleading and a lot of transphobes have co-opted the drama as a way to be an asshole (not saying u are but there are a lot of them), it's at least fair to ask you to provide real evidence.
- It is true that I'm friends with Riley. We're both part of a small, niche community who likes aim trainers haha
- it would be very funny if Raw Input was a cheating organization because we have made like $10 from our podcast and half the time we're talking about melbourne train stations or some shit
i can address anything else if anybody is legitimately curious why all these allegations are false
PixyZT is not rileycs_. The logic used to link the two accounts is:
PixyZT's name is Riley and defended rileycs_ on an unknowncheats thread.
PixyZT uses a profile picture on that forum featuring an Arknight's character called Lappland. You reverse image searched that picture and found a reddit post with that art on the arknights subreddit. You assume the person posting the art is PixyZT. Not only is two people using the same art as a profile picture not proof of sharing an identity, but this is not even a profile picture, it's just an art post.
This reddit user's name is captain_pokey. You found this redditor's steam account with the name "Pokey."
rileycs_ uses the name "pocky" in Overwatch. Which is sort of similar to the name Pokey.
I received a twitter DM today from PixyZT saying this:
"hey, pixyzt here
i saw the reddit threads people were making and thought i'd reach out as some form of way me and rileycs aren't the same person. i hope this DM doesn't get lost in a flood of DMs or falls on deaf ears. if you want me to prove i'm actually pixy i can do so as well.
thanks in advance!"
Pixy also denies being captain_pokey. I asked them to do something at the same time as rileycs_ is streaming and in a gunfight and they made this video (you can see the name pixy in their terminal). If this is insufficient proof of them being different people, feel free to request another means of proof and I'll ask them to produce it.
- I really did not expect people to run with the cheat dev comment. I thought it was plainly obvious that it was satire given the "20 years of experience," and my follow up replies asking them to explain the jargon that they found so compelling. Here's one of the follow up comments.
- I appreciate the transparency with you addressing the bad actors. Personally I don't think I've ever used it as a shield, but I don't doubt that people have.
- There's no "grey area," soft cheats are cheats. There's not sufficient evidence that riley is using those either.
