Just to clarify what happened here, as I made it while being a bit heated: a couple of days ago, someone released a pastebin (that was posted on BlueSky) with some criticisms towards ESA about actions they've supposedly done, but have no proof.

Reminder: transparency good, it's what the community needs. But also: transparency bad, it's only done to save face. (can't repost because it's BlueSky so thought I'd make it anonymous)

I am really unsure what people want. Edenal to be responsible for ESA's actions, or for him to shut up because any actual response is "clearing his name".

BSG hadn't said anything (at the time) so Edenal posted this in their Discord server after seeing UKSG not afraid to do so. This screenshot is a reply to the BlueSky pastebin post, specifically calling him out for saying "yeah this is untrue, and I can back it up".

[zoton2 @zoton2]

For transparency, I'll say that a UKSG organiser reached out to me to go over the things I had reported, and some other concerns in my thread from the other day. Not happy with them all but at the moment it's not worth the argument.

[zoton2 @zoton2]

Also as a heads up, that last thread I made wasn't actually what I intended to post. I have something a lot more "dividing" that I want to post but due to the timing (BSG soon) and other factors, I'm wondering if I hold off. Let's see.

[zoton2 @zoton2]

I think that's it for now. A few issues that make me feel uncomfortable around giant chunks of the "community" but maybe in the grand scheme, not "huge" issues to some. At some point, maybe I'll call out the people I made the reports on. But not in this thread, it's too long.

[zoton2 @zoton2]

First thread: to go into detail about some things that annoy me about "European speedrun events" (UKSG/BSG/NSG/ESA). First up, safety reporting since last year: I made reports to @NSG_marathon , @BSGMarathon and @UKSGMarathon about several people in August 2024.

[zoton2 @zoton2]

but I've also heard internal things from ESA were leaked there too, which yeah, not acceptable. They then later "archived" the channel (removing it from public view) so cannot reference it anymore.
