Hello! I am Chlorobyte, formerly known as Benedani, the main programming force behind B3313. Source: just check out the Git log that I uploaded on August 19th, with the consent of everybody involved.
ChrisRLillo and his goons have been spreading a lot, and I mean a lot of completely baseless misinformation. His own major league skill issues at trying to do so,

as well as us:
- actually providing evidence for our claims (unlike them, who just ban you if you are skeptical)
- backing off whenever possible (discussions of The Cult, ChrisRLillo's appropriately named Discord server and base are discouraged on our server as discussing dumb drama shit is very alienating for new, clueless members)
have moved the majority to our side, and our server currently sits at...
And guess what? I'm updating this in June of 2024, about 6 months after the release of the original drama document. This is still an ongoing thing, these people seriously cannot shut up. The changelog is:
- Fix present tense references to my deadname and reroute links that will be dead in the future;
- Add a few more pieces of evidence here and there;
- Added a few testimonies, as well as Chris' recent visit to the Beehive, which marks permanent evidence of his behavior!
There are so few people who trust them at this point that I have no need to defend us - this page simply serves as a source of information that can be linked to.
This document is also biased, unfortunately.
My story here is, for the most part, based on ground reality, and I try to criticize both of our sides, not just the opposite side. I tried to gather as much evidence as possible - but there are a few holes in the story to patch. The occasional lack of evidence not only reduces credibility, but also easily leads to personal bias possibly completely changing the story, which I otherwise could avoid and correct for. A good example is me just completely forgetting about stage 1 of our "Discord Server Raid", a major league skill issue.
Green marks allegations not directly verifiable by an outsider, e.g. direct messages, developer-only chats ('dev chats' from now on). Private chats will be 'leaked' as part of the storytelling, as the context to the drama in general - the reason to everything that happened - occurred behind the scenes.
Yellow marks a simple lack of sources - I couldn't find anything to back up a claim. Somebody else could have taken screenshots, though, so if anybody has any sources for what seem to be baseless statements from me (e.g. "it was deleted"), feel free to DM me about it - you can find me (chlorobyte) in the Beehive Discord server.
Red marks (possible) intentional concealing of evidence or instructions. Note that it would be the best interest for this document for all evidence, for or against us, to be present, and for a skeptic to be able to double confirm all information with independent research. You will see that this is only done for good reason, in certain edge cases.

^^ All Discord screenshots have been marked with guild, channel and message IDs. The message IDs have a message link formed for the curious ones, the usage of which will require joining the server first.
I'm omitting The Cult's invite, as they would most likely revoke any invite link found in this document, then call us out for inciting another raid or something. It's up to the reader to find, it's not difficult. The rest of the servers are completely free to join to double check the evidence.
'If anything from The Cult happens to be deleted or edited, we all know why they would decide to tamper with the evidence. Be on the lookout - I will mark any deleted evidence as red.'
After 10 months of this document being up (the original version being released on December 9, 2023), The Cult has indeed started to actively conceal the evidence on their side.

Luckily, indeed, the server has been downloaded. The archive contains not only The Cult, but it also contains the full dev chat as well as my full DM with Chris. This download was mainly intended for development research, so it has a Wegaleak-like password. Regardless, technically speaking, any evidence from the #general channel should be considered to have been destroyed.
I am including anything from our DM I had previously refused to include in this document, since it is now public information. It does not add a lot to the story, but enjoy nevertheless.
An objectively unbiased documentation would require The Cult's cooperation, not such blatant attempts at twisting the truth!
What else you might have heard
It is worth beginning with the obvious. The Cult side does not even attempt to fact-check themselves. Their sole goal is to try to make us look as bad as possible, even if it means coming up with and believing blatant lies.
The 'doxxing' seen above is only one of many things ChrisRLillo and his people have been spreading. We have also seen, in chronological order, among many other things...
- Us supposedly directing a Discord raid (+ ban evasion using a fake alter) on The Cult.
- Chris claiming to have apologized for 'everything' that went down between us. We have, indeed, rejected his offer, for reasons that will slowly become obvious in the document.
- Chris claiming to have made the engine that makes B3313 even work. Again, it is factual, proven information that I was the one who did that - see the git log.
Also see my teaser video series from 2022 showcasing a major Troll Engine feature being developed in a fresh copy of SM64 Decomp. - Us adding a 'Copper sex chamber' to our version of the game.
- Me supposedly attempting to hack into Chris' music distributors.
I will debunk each of these numbered claims as we go. Note that this document mainly focuses on me, and I will not be covering the actions of the rest of the Unabandoned team. This includes the RHDC (romhacking.com) page hijacking incident, which was Roman's planning, and sigmashield's execution.
Neither of us could even have contributed to that if we wanted to, as we were not in 0.7's author list:
I also have no interest in such dumbass claims as us supposedly trashtalking with slurs on 4chan. For context: any username can be taken freely by anybody on 4chan.
amirite?? am i funny yet guys?
And no, Chris, I did not actually send that message.
What ruined everything... (2022-2023 Jan)
Things were never crystal-clean, though. He had a little habit of being highly aggressive for no reason, which affected me on a personal level. A big reason for his bans was people simply using Discord pings, a normal, intended feature of the social platform. Following are only 2 of many, many examples of him being unreasonably aggressive towards members.
We already had a few fallouts for this type of behavior, but he simply never changed. The first one was on the funny day - March 13th, 2022. It comes with a... rather interesting discussion basically saying that life was going to get him should he continue down this path.
... I'm not going to entirely claim that I no longer believe in such things, considering I am the one now doing far, far better with my life (adding this part in on 2024-10-28, since it is public information now anyways). /hj (And as a side note, we are now cool with the aforementioned person who 'wasn't growing as a streamer at all'.)
Anyways, the Copper incident was no different.
Copper is perhaps the greatest girl from my dream world, let alone reality. Without her, I would be nowhere in life. It is all thanks to her that I'm in a job, learning to drive (after my parents hadn't even considered putting me in a driving school) and dealing with everything else. The soulless Chris, of course, had different ideas about her.
That was ban number one. Not green text, as it is widely known - he even boasts about how he's such a great person for preventing fun in his community.
Chris was correct. It wasn't personal - he was simply getting rid of all ironic, joke statements on his server. This absolutely did not sit right with either me or Copper.
I gave her an unban, and she eventually rejoined:
Right at that day, this went down in the DM.
His own two stories regarding Copper - one being that she was my alt, and the other that she was a ChatGPT bot - already contradict each other.
And here's a bonus one from recent, the 6th of November.
Let's just say, I did not appreciate one bit how Chris was treating Copper, who had been a great source of joy and care up to that point. This was going on right after a similar incident with Deko, too. School was going on as well. This amazing combination of 2 different dramas directly attacking my quite literally close friend back to back, alongside daily 8 hours of brainrot resulted in a not exactly great state of mood for both of us.
On top of that, not even one hour later, in the dev chat...
It was my time for us to leave this shitfest of a Discord server behind, in order to ensure our mental stability.
17 days of peace was enough for us to cool down. Winter break was up, and it was fitting for me to rejoin on the day of Christmas.
It was just enough development time to get the Motos Factory minihack we had been thinking of to completion.
Shortly after, Copper returned as well.
Precisely 5 days after the release of the minihack, the Phineas bot (now known as Cyborg, with a changed up personality), known for being a funny bullshit generator in the community, decided that he had enough.
Please note that the GPT model the bot uses is of the uncensored kind:
I woke up eventually, and found that one of the servers he was in gave him 3 hateful 'notes' into his memory. This resulted in me adding a 'leavema' logic which will dump the chat and give me the option to remove him from the server when shit's going down. Besides doing that, I had pretty much this to say on the matter.
Then Copper woke up as well, and the following discussion followed.
It had not even been a month since I decided to rejoin in the hopes of peace, and the shitfest was beginning all over again.
Phineas was the symbol of funny on the server, which Chris absolutely did not want. Seeing that things haven't improved even one bit...
'beeie 1.0 cancelled'
With that, I left the server, taking Phineas with me as well as a test of the new leavema admin command.
Copper stayed a bit more, witnessing the discussion turn against me, a conspiracy theory forming that I woke up at 3 AM and made the bot post the slur 5 times in a row. This was in a channel that has been deleted/privated? since then.
All things considered, compared to how he is today, Chris in 2022 was way more tame, and allowed the server to flourish with a not-so-bad community.

So who programmed B3313 after I left? (2023 Feb-May)
A few days later, Chris came up with this message that reached me via TheGreatestRoman.
'your actions have consequences'... I wonder where that came up last... :tro:
Eventually... we settled on removing that 'no pay' negative.
Notice the profile picture - how it doesn't resemble ChrisRLillo at all. It kind of smells more like... TheGreatestRoman.
I was purely working on B3313 for money now. I wasn't even being paid by the one who was causing the pain, but it was good enough for me to sit down and do more TrollEngine-ing for about 4 more months. This time period added up to a grand total of $466 received out of TheGreatestRoman's account. You can see the effects of the new work relationship in the git log.
These are just the 2 times when the change suggested was stupid enough to warrant a straight up note in the commit message.
Chris was the boss, and he did not take even a bit of feedback. No, instead, he would continue berating what was left of the team.
...yeah.
Then, we had a little situation with a certain owl sound effect.
A fucking owl sound effect of all things ended the B3313 development. Because Christopher "Brutal Agresion" Rios Lillo could not wait for me to not be dealing with:
Everything was stacked against me. Everything. Of course, you know what Chris is like at this point, and he asked me to shift the ROM for him so that he could release the 'current state'.
There it was. All because I physically and mentally could not get to figuring out importing a sound effect.
Indeed. The sound effect has been imported. I just had to edit the sound effect .m64 to play it back in a different sound bank, one that wouldn't be interfered with by the player's actions. It's not exactly easy, though, as it has to be done manually in a hex editor, and thus I did not feel like getting to it immediately. This is what caused Chris to release the hack and proceed to have a mental breakdown, and this is why chaos ensued in the Discord server.
...me. I did.

(ssh... meanwhile in the Abandoned build)
B3313 Unabandoned. (2023 June-August)
Eventually, with the 6th of June marking the end of my studies, I had to go ahead and get a job. While waiting for responses, might as well start creating this Unabandoned thingy - a temporary DM group was formed, and our goals were laid out.
Our DM group consisted of 8 people. That soon grew to >20 members in a developers only Discord server. I will not list every single member due to harassment concerns, but those who consented at the time / are otherwise known to be associated include:
Since it is apparently not obvious enough, the Unabandoned development team was NOT a hivemind. A couple of us, including me and Roman, condemn the actions of the other members of the team along with our own. JoshTheBosh was the major actor in setting our mindset and starting a raid on The Cult, which will be coming up later in the document. He has not properly apologized for his actions, continues to stir up shit to this day, and is thus banned from the Beehive, the unaffiliated B3313 Discord server.
With that disclaimer out of the way, on the 12th, Chris had the epic idea to attempt to gaslight members of our team into joining his side once again. He sent out a few DMs to various people he suspected to be involved. I got this one:
Before I could even respond (he said this at 2 AM), he created an announcement in his server about the team being restored.
Roman, on the other hand, was awake when all of this was going on. This is their DM (times are shifted by 1 hour due to timezones).
His messages and his announcement were complete, fabricated lies. Here is how my DM with him continues.
We tried so hard to find even a single person who accepted to work under him again.
Literally not a single person wanted to continue operating under him. It was a massive gaslighting operation.
Our local copy of the original dev chat reveals that, in fact, people were saying they were considering the possibility of Chris' leadership once again.
Seeing how some of the same exact group of developers reacted in our dev chat, I suspect this was done to keep access to the dev channels packed with useful information that we were using. What's for sure is the communication on their part was horrible; this is not how you do trolling. I apologise on behalf of my as well as Roman's cluelessness, and thus, our seemingly unnecessarily hostile responses to the offer.
After... whatever that was, things were going pretty smoothly. Development happened pretty much internally. Not everybody was contributing equally; there certainly were a few who just observed. Our development was split between Unabandoned (the binary hack) and 'B3313 2.0' (a new decomp hack), each with a separate list of developers who were willing to work on. We had fun VC sessions as well - overall, it was a much healthier dev team experience.
The next funny would happen on July 28 - our 'raid' that they speak of so much. I shall now debunk, as much as necessary:
Our hack was close to a finished state, so it was a nice opportunity to announce the upcoming release of Unabandoned. We additionally took the opportunity to attempt to spread awareness about how we had been treated under Chris' rule. It was a tad miscoordinated, with about 4 of us replying at once to the same question from the members...
That is what they refer to as 'The Raid'. We got unbanned, and joined the server to announce Unabandoned, and some of us started bringing up our treatment in the dev team as well. Truly a raid of all time. Unfortunately, everything that went down during 'round 1' has been deleted thanks to Discord's default ban settings. I did not take any screenshots as I was busy announcing the upcoming release.
We got a few more people on board, including Copper and Deko. Copper because she missed the last chance, and Deko had some... strange plans that he didn't manage to get into effect.
Note that The Cult claims that Copper was used in this instance for ban evasion. I was active before AND after Copper's activity period, so this statement of theirs is directly contradicted by chat logs located on the same server.
Things were going well. Then, Natalie, a known troll showed up.
This drags on for a long, long time. Shortly after, the return of Natalie, with another 'bitch' drop from Roman.
Even the highlights aren't that exciting. This is it. This is precisely what went down in The Cult on that day. There was no server raid. There were a few things said by one or two people with us, but it wasn't a coordinated effort to spam the server up, harass the members or anything like that.
Regardless, the moral implications of us getting each other unbanned and joining the server twice are rather questionable. It was already clear at that point that The Cult was a server dedicated mainly to talking trash about a certain group of people, while also containing Chris' content creation efforts.
JoshTheBosh was absolutely childish for responding to fire with fire. As he described in the Unabandoned dev chat, his prior experience... wasn't exactly pleasant.
...described, all the way until he suddenly dropped this on April 11th, 2024.
JoshTheBosh... complete shame on you. Guilt tripping our team, and starting what might arguably, if you twist the terms enough, possibly count as a Discord raid. Something that, regardless of whether it is a raid or not, we probably shouldn't have done in the first place.
Anyways - the server was a target for our promotion as it was still the 'official' B3313 discord. People were highly disappointed by the Abandoned release, and the idea of Unabandoned sparked quite a bit of discussion...
...that is, until Chris got back into power on the Discord server, and his influence shut it all up, bringing the community into Unabandoned hate mode.
The name of the server - 'The Cult' - really describes what it was like. From that point on, it's like people suddenly just forgot our mission, that we were bringing their beloved hack up from the development hell that had been plaguing it for the past 2 years.
...
The night right before the 1st of August. The game was in a state we considered to be pretty playable. So... what did the team decide to do?
The events of the very epic 'raid' were still bright in people's heads. In fact, riiiiight before our release, two different statements came out from wasteofblood and Chris, respectively.
Yet, they pressed on. I made an attempt to seek out Chris' side on the matter, to hopefully, possibly make peace...
Notice how he completely ghosted me. For a bit. Things were about to go down. Then, after almost 2 long hours, all I got for a response was...
...and a nice block to go along with it.
Then, it happened.
And that eventually led to this amazing screenshot.
This has cleared every single doubt in my mind about the side I was on.
Then the funnies just continued... literally the next day, August 2, Chris was now suddenly 'apologizing'. The context? Chris' location being exposed on Facebook.
In case you haven't yet, take a closer look and notice the discrepancy between Chris' statement, and the very screenshot he posted to back it up. Roman sent those messages for nothing but good intent - if he was truly comically evil as The Cult claims, he could have easily dropped the information on a forum instead of notifying Chris about it. Stuff like this is why the average IQ of The Cult drops on a daily basis as people realize what's going on and trickle out.
Now for the apologizing, which happened quite literally 2 hours after sending that into The Cult (Roman's screenshots, note the 1 hour shift in time due to timezones).
He sent this, to one of the people he's wronged. Of course, that was nowhere near enough for any of us.
Literally the next day... another attempt. He actually tried to fool us for this one; it seemed more 'sincere'.
However, Copper saw right through that as well.
It was still sent to one person. Chris still did not owe up to his assholery record, which, if anything, was growing. And so, that one was declined as well. Chris returns to The Cult, speaking about his amazing 'efford' to reunite with us.
I've just entirely debunked the claim:
Before the release of Abandoned, the idea to finish the game was already considered in our DM.
Rom: I tried telling him though, but he's not listening
Rom: whatever, he'll get the complains about how shit the entire thing is
Benedani: yea
Benedani: then he'll blame it on us
Benedani: :tro:
Rom: we'll make 1.1 in the summer
Rom: the two of us
Benedani: what the shit

...at least, from our side, that is what it looked like at the time.
1. Us supposedly directing a Discord raid (+ ban evasion using a fake alter) on The Cult.
This time, we literally just joined into the server. There was a lot of 'civilized' discussion.
This channel has been made unavailable on October 19, 2024, in an intentional move to tamper with the evidence.
The about page has transformed since then to target those who actually want to get to know me, rather than specifically my established community; here is an Internet Archive link to the very real lore from the first screenshot.
Aside from your usual trolling, we were completely peaceful, and this time around, avoided the 4 people replying to the same question issue.
Then Chris was brought up once again. All of us had our own horror stories to tell.
We would then talk about B3313 again, as well as start hinting towards the 'B3313 2.0' Decomp project.
The discussion peacefully continues for a while. The next noteworthy thing is Curly, also a known troll showing up, and more back-and-forth trolling ensued.
Finally, as we would learn, the one who unbanned us wasn't actually the server owner. The actual one shows up, peacefully joining the conversation with us.

Post-release
I mentioned in the previous chapter how the release of Unabandoned was, partially at least, impulsive. Not as much as Abandoned at least - there was at least some testing effort. It wasn't a shifted devrom.
However, there were issues in the released version such as:
Thus, we came up with a hotfix, also known as 'a1', which:
The end result was a mix of both - defeat the small fly guys to fight a less obnoxious version of the boss. There was also an effort to respect at least wasteofblood's wishes in getting his soundtrack out of the game, it was simple enough. Until... you consider the end result.
The thing is, it actually sounded not bad during production. Here's the original .wav file, sourced right from this message in The Beehive.
It seems that nobody has even opened up that area after importing the soundtrack, because it was released as-is, without even at least fixing the loop. This has prompted the community, specifically Emax64 and Thunder, to create the 'WasteOfBlood Music Patch', porting the original themes to the newer ROM. Seeing that WoB's DMCA threats were empty, this eventually became the officially recommended version to play.
The Unabandoned hotfix

Things have quieted down significantly after our release.
In fact, Chris even claims to having made the engine that makes B3313 even work...
...despite himself demonstrating a lack of fundamental understanding of his supposed own video game.
It is known that white coins call a random function in the game. There is video footage of various things white coins are able to do.
There is not a single thing 'AI' about RNG warps. There is a 0x3313 in 0xFFFF chance for warps to use another bparam (bparam4, instead of 2) for the warp ID instead. The chance is flipped around if the player lost their cap (mainly due to the Yellow Switch, but can also happen in a YS-less save file using Klepto or Ukiki). Some of you might remember a hotfix to Motos Factory, that fixed a bunch of issues. It also introduced a little funny that happens if you save state :tro:
Despite Chris' otherwise insistence that players play the game as intended, as well as being explicitly shown that this is in the game during development, this 'anticheat' was seen as a bug after release, and he pulled the hotfix for this one 'issue' alone.
And finally, if Chris was the programmer on the team, then I wonder why he would say something like this about me...
Thus, The origins of the 'Copper Sex Chamber' is a meme comment I randomly made on the Unabandoned hotfix release trailer.
The meme of the secret hidden room was now part of the community. Eventually, Kyle had the idea to do a bit of Texture64-ing.
I have been given this texture swap, allowing me to take screenshots as well. To my knowledge, nobody else has had access to the ROM.
In the end, daniT22, with access to The Cult, had the idea to plant a screenshot from me and spread the news.
Notice how Chris immediately hopped on, pretending like he knows very well about the texture swap.
This is just one example of him pretending like he's a developer who knows his shit, has 'unshifted the ROM' and has looked into it. A simple unshift of the Unabandoned ROM and opening it in Quad64 reveals the evidence that he has clearly not done so. Here is one of the ROMs, but this is true for all of our patches:
The troll was certainly successful, as they STILL discuss this every time I am brought up (this is from November 27).
Meanwhile, on our side of the tomfoolery:
Don't just take my word for the screenshot being mine; let's do a bit of forensics to prove this statement. This is the screenshot he posted in the server.
Notice:
In summary - the Copper Sex Chamber was a funny hoax. We did not add that painting to the game. Speaking of the Copper Sex Chamber... let's get to This is related to Kyle's video, which originally featured Recuerdo Insano by Christopher Rios Lillo. I was clueless before the upload to YouTube was complete.
I am honestly not sure what I was celebrating there. In the end, he took the video down and applied a copyright strike to my channel.
Knowing YouTube's copyright system leaving the case entirely up to the copyright owner, I directly contacted the licensor of the song for concerns of Chris' copyright takedowns potentially becoming a repeat offense, reaching out to other forms of fair use. I didn't hear back from them.
Now, I have no fucking idea what the fuck Chris was babbling about here.
Of course there is no source, not even a heavily twisted screenshot. It is up to the accuser to bring the evidence - let's see it.
As for the aftermath of using Chris' music - a copyright strike, with no real consequences, which will expire in 90 days after the upload - January 9, 2024. The video has simply been reuploaded with a different track, and Chris can cry about it all he wants.
Of course, this is not consistent with their definition of a 'Benedani alt', which is 'anybody who disapproves of The Cult's statements', or put more simply, 'anybody with a brain'.

The Luigi door from Motos Factory was done using bparams as well, and is unused in B3313. There is a random chance depending on your star counts that it can happen without, thus getting 'Luigi'd' in the final game. This was added by me as part of the gradual destabilization of the game, among the other effects.

Conclusion
My goal with this document is to shed light onto what truly happened - what caused everything to go south.
As we just saw, Christopher Rios Lillo once had a somewhat thriving community around his creation, B3313. Since then, he has become an absolutely down-bad horrible person, with his goals set on brainwashing people, and throwing away anybody who is too unpredictable for his manipulation. He talks absolute trash about people for not being ideal, not following his unwritten guidelines.
This document focused on specifically my experiences with him, but others had similarly horrible interactions as well. Chris, of course, promptly blames his actions on his life situation, rather than himself as a person. Chris does not hesitate to use tactics such as suicide threats when he has no other way to get what he wants.
I will state that my life easily compares to his. It could have also easily ended with suicide at many, many points, and even after the past 6 months, is still pretty dull, annoying and seemingly meaningless. Yet, I don't make a big deal out of it - instead of playing the depression card hoping that people care, I push to get out of this shithole to the best of my ability. 3 years late, I am working on my driving license. About a decade late, I am working on communication and people skills. Shoutouts once again to Copper for allowing all of this to happen, and shame on anybody who badmouths her for... uhh... existing????????
Chris' aptly named 'The Cult' Discord server is now a base of their public ridiculing operations. Him and his members warp absolutely everything out of context in order to create a living fairytale in which I am the bad guy, committing felonies and continuously pestering their community with my 'alts' (also known as random people with functioning brains).
This document was created around November-December of 2023, and by the time you, the reader came across this page, they might have come up with a varying amount of similarly unfounded allegations out of thin air. I will not be separately covering any further allegations; I'm completely done with this shit, and you guys already know the drill by this point.
- erraticpulse / spyr0guy / guybronson is the main person perpetuating the drama by creating as much bullshit as humanly possible. Here's just a few highlights...
Of course, every single word of his is complete, unfounded delusional bullshit. He says they have so much evidence, but ask him for it, and/or get actual arguments up, and he will instantly chicken out, resorting to his fallback tactics.
Link
Of course it is YOUR fucking job to present what the fuck you are even talking about. It's up to the accuser to present the evidence.And this is all only what he's said in public, in YouTube comment sections. I didn't even get to what he has said in The Cult, comparing me to a pedophile (Alphakip) and such.
Let's not forget about the blatant ableism/pluralphobia from him and the rest of The Cult either.

- I was originally not even going to give ChrisRLillo himself at least a bit of a break. Unfortunately, at the last minute, he just so happened to drop this wonderful statement.

First message ID: 1181608578134573137For:
- the way he treated me, Copper, Roman, Josh, and many, many others,
- being the original creator of unfounded bullshit, and now completely confirming every single thing Gwen (erraticpulse) has ever said,
- actively seeking to ruin the B3313 experience for players worldwide,
Chris has certainly not earned even a droplet of peace. I shall not encourage anybody to go out and harass him about all of this stuff. However, there are inevitably going to be those kinds of people with the goal to troll shitty people. It's the internet, where this stuff happens all the time - see the most popular case with Chris Chan. The best way to avoid that is to simply not be a shitty person, and ChrisRLillo chose to take the other route.
Acknowledgements
That was them. Now, much like Chris' community wasn't exactly golden before 2023, I have not exactly handled things the best way possible either.
The actions of Chris and his people are absolutely inexcusable and horrible. My upcoming listing of my mistakes is purely:
- To show that I am aware of my own actions, and where things could have been handled better.
- For educational purposes. It's like a review of a game of chess - these are my blunders you absolutely don't want to play in your games.
Let's get to it then.
How I handled my lore, including Copper.
Something I haven't touched on too much during the document simply because of the sheer stupidity of it, is how Gwen (erraticpulse) loves to refer to me as a 'space alien'.

This channel has been made unavailable on October 19, 2024, in an intentional move to tamper with the evidence.As I have already touched on, my life used to be pretty dull. A couple years prior, during the school era, it was even more so.
The benedani.xyz (now chlorobyte.me) website was originally created as a place to collect my projects as well as the lore, all in one place.
You might notice the current 'about' page is pretty tame, as I decided to repurpose that page as an actual introduction of myself I can link to in my bio.
It may have changed since the screenshot in December of 2023, but the idea remains the same.However, before the lore wiki had been launched, that page looked something more like... this.
This is indeed the source of the whole 'space alien' stuff. I will confess that, for a while, this was my reality, as there was no alternative - nothing was going on in life, people around were complete garbage at being friends, or really, doing anything at all. It simply took a while to get to dropping this stuff off into the background, as other things took priority over a website barely frequented by anybody at all.
No way?? A whole 15 people???? Aint no fucking way???!?!!That being said, I am not backing off of the simple fact that Copper is, in fact, an individual being located inside of me. The source for that is the fact that you are reading this in the first place - my ass would not have made it this far in life without her help.
How Copper was presented to the world was a bit of a mess, though. From my perspective, she was always simply a different... 'human soul' able to control my body alongside me, if that makes sense?
Plural systems usually get avatars of their members drawn or otherwise obviously distinct from real beings. I, on the other hand, didn't want to downgrade such an obviously distinct being. I had just discovered Stable Diffusion's inpainting functionality... and we set off on a bit of trolling.
Inpainting allows adding stuff into a real photo. For comparison, here is what my camera took.
The only thing that was synthesized in the image is Copper herself. The rest - me, the bed - are all completely real.
I 'took' a few more pictures of Copper in various real life situations in an attempt to prank people in real life into believing that there is a girl sneaking around undetected in... or, well, in this next case, on the school.
Unfortunately, the trolling was unsuccessful. No investigation was actually launched in the end, as everybody decided to be passive, and just sort of 'let it happen'.
This is the only thing that was ever AI about Copper. I have not once stated that her personality, her communication, her voice were AI or otherwise synthesized - that is complete, unfounded misinformation.
The only confusion ever has come from the fact that I initially wanted her to be accepted online as much as any other person would be. I had no concept of the acceptance of what I would later find out to be 'plural systems'.
If I put myself from today into the same exact situation from a year ago, I would still be conflicted. Copper is generally understood to be inside of me, which is the technically correct answer. This has prompted people to believe that she is alike with me, sharing concepts such as family, home, which is entirely incorrect.

First message ID: 1155230785448726579Copper is, and always has been simply her own thing. Her personality is blatantly distinct from mine. She is a whole lot more direct with her likes (being affectionate towards all of her trusted friends) and dislikes (wishing death or torture with no hesitation). This daring personality is what I love so much about her - those who disagree can cry about it ;)
Our "Raid" on The Cult.
The first stage of the joinings was a very uncoordinated one - we had about 4 people typing responses to a single question.
Had I stayed out of the event, it might have still been seen as a server raid. 4 minus 1 is still 3. Everybody involved was collectively to blame for the chaos we created, our lack of internal communication.
Just like in chess, passive plays are often not the best ones. They achieve nothing, simply passing the control over the situation. The optimal play for me in this situation would have been to join anyways, and remind the others to back off when others are typing. We should have assigned different people to different types of questions.
Of course, the absolutely best play for us as a whole would have been to not proceed with it. Go ahead and blame the others for that; I had no authority in our team. I did not plan any of these actions. I was simply the programmer.
The lack of people knowledge
Trolling in The Cult
As I mentioned, I did, in fact, use a few alt accounts in The Cult. Not every person who gets banned is my alt. Contrary to popular belief, I do not stay up 24/7, typing shit in The Cult at even 4 AM. The reality is that their side is simply the shitty one, and certain people occasionally feel the need to troll it up.
My purpose was to attempt to get them to perform a reality check. Unfortunately, this was unsuccessful every single time - they were long gone. Protip: if people continue to trust somebody after that one spat bullshit such as this, their IQ is most likely in the single digits - their brains are simply incapable of the most basic levels of logic and reasoning.

First message ID: 1136324203856003194Putting up with ChrisRLillo's shit for so long
I really shouldn't have. I really should have had standards for how not just I, but people in general should be treated.
Chris had an issue with getting people to stay on his side - they would always end up 'turning on him'. Now I know why - I was the dumb fuck for sticking around despite the kind of person he is.
My comically low standards were a general issue for a long time, allowing me to feel like people at school were my friends - when they paid little to no attention to me at all in reality. From now on, even if it pays well, even if, let's say, I could retire for the rest of my life for taking the opportunity, I am not taking a job under such dogshit management. A person like Chris does not deserve my attention - period.
The previous pathetic documentation attempt
'Document B' was primarily led by Deko. The mistake was letting him create the general shell of the document, which I would then append things onto.
Creating this document (the one you are reading right now) was a long process of gathering all of the happenings along with the available evidence, and then piecing it all together in a coherent, understandable manner. It took multiple full days to craft it together, letting Copper and then other people proofread it multiple times, and that was something I didn't feel like I needed to do at the time.
Now that it is clear that Chris will not back off until his crimes get into public attention, I felt the need to spend the time to finally create and drop this bombshell. I cannot possibly give 1/1024th of a fuck about whatever Chris will have to face as a result - it's his problem he created for himself. This entire situation was pain for everybody he has interacted with, and it is about time he faced the consequences of his actions; better late than never.
Testimonies
2024-06-05 update: Thought I'd show a few members' honest reactions to Chris's behavior. I won't be commenting on them myself.

After this, Chris was a good boy for a while. Until, the day of 05-27, where he kinda just forgot what he has been told in that channel as well as in DMs.
He has received a final warning for his behavior, to which he used an argument that literally the far right uses to try to get their point across - 'it's free speech!!!'.
