Shores of Hazeron Development Resumed
#21
This message is to replace the thread that Space Geek deleted. 

To be clear, Space Geek deleted an entire thread after I posted my concerns with his actions and his involvement in the Hazeron project. It seems something in my information clearly makes Space Geek Uncomfortable. So I ask your patience while I lay it out.

Space Geek / Aevaneur 

He is known member of the Hazeron community in his primary identity as "Space Geek." Aevaneur is another identity he took on recently. I will be using both names for the sake of clarity. Space Geek's reputation during the active years of Hazeron Multiplayer was so low as to be worth avoiding it would seem. But I will let Space Geek / Aevaneur speak to his own reputation in the community and why he might want to assume multiple identities.

Current Events and Control of the Hazeron Source Code

Space Geek / Aevaneur has recently claimed to control access the the Hazeron source code GitHub (a repository for code). He claims to have been given this control directly by Haxus and this seems to have been verified by other individuals. 

After obtaining this code he has acted extremely erratically, deliberately attempted to Troll the Hazeron community using this access (by his own admission), and closed out other members of the community from Access to the Hazeron Source code. 

I will now review the recent events and attempt to untangle the behavior of Space Geek / Aevaneur. I will go through all this in 5 points.

After Space Geek / Aevaneur obtained the Source Code from Haxus, Space Geek apparently decided he needed a new identity. Space Geek then decided to make his alter ego an armed figure wearing a mask with a Temple OS logo on his forehead.

Just stop for a moment and ask yourself. Is a person who choses this type of profile the type of person you want managing your project? Does he seem like a serious individual?


1-2 Space Geek attempts to Troll the Hazeron Community with his position and ChatGPT

1. Space Geek / Aevaneur - Now using his Aevaneur identity initially introduced himself via the following discord message. During this time Space Geek acted as if he was a new individual who was familiar with the Hazeron community, but not active in years. In truth he had posted as Space Geek not long before appearing.

2. Space Geek / Aevaneur Spoke at length after his introduction usually in extremely long winded and at some times completely illogical messages while attempting to assert his control of the Hazeron source code. This was almost immediately called out by the community (Norway, Key of Door, and Virtualize) as being written using ChatGPT. 

It was highly unusual that a person unknown to the Hazeron community would suddenly receive access to the Hazeron source code an the behavior of this individual struck many as usual and disrespectful in utilizing AI to formulate responses.

3. Blocking Access to the Hazeron Source Code / Trolling Haxus to get the source code

Space Geek / Aevaneur - Also attempted to rationalize his removal of other community member's access to the Hazeron Source Code GetHub. He removed Celarious and Deantwo leaving himself and Haxus only having access. Eventually community pressure seemed to cause Space Geek / Aevaneur to relent and return access to Celarious momentarily. This access was later revoked. 

This placed Space Geek / Aevaneur in pretty much sole control of the Hazeron source code. Unfortunately he gained this control in an attempt to troll Haxus and it would seem, the entire community.

Space Geek / Aevaneur would later defend his actions by claiming that his actions were justified in order to "get the Hazeron Source." Apparently he understood that this information could be seen negatively as he sought as much "plausible deniablity as possible" and a smaller forum for discussion.

4. It was highly suspected, but not confirmed that Space Geek / Aevaneur were one in the same. Eventually GamerSCD would confirm this fact via a longwinded Hazeron Forum post where he outlined that Space Geek / Aevaneur would lead the Hazeron project with GamerSCD working along with him and apparently Deantwo as a community manager (I doubt dean even knew about this beforehand). This entire post was nuked by Space Geek / Aevaneur following a post similar to this one where I outlined his deceptive and trolling behavior.

Now he claims to have revoked his own access to the forums after deleting the thread calling out his actions.

5. Space Geek / Aevaneur has been repeatedly dismissive and somewhat disrespectful to Haxus.

The bottom line: Space Geek has repeatedly used his access to the Hazeron Source code to Troll the community and at the very least is an unserious person at worst is a malicious person from the very first email under a false identity to Haxus.

Can confirm everything Phoenix outlines here is accurate. And was what I was referring to in my first post. Obviously we didn't have all the information then as we do now.
But even back then, all the red flags were there. And were rightfully called out.

Oh, Spacegeek! It's been 14 years and you still haven't changed! You nettlesome scamp! You're like a physical incarnation of Wormtongue.

If you hadn't heard, the Shores of Hazeron source is now publicly available on GitHub.

Aevaneur/Space Geek no longer has any administrative role.

Hope this clears up the drama.

Such pettiness would be far out of character for me. I don't do things just to piss people off.

I prefer the tranquility of living a stress free life.

Thank you Haxus. Thanks for this game and for releasing it with vary generous terms. This game has helped me get through some difficult times.

Hope everything on the farm is going well.

Please join us in Open Shores sometime. Its fun to build build up a civilization and fight the asteroid every now and then.
