**** KiwiFarms.

[I REALLY HATE POKEMON!]

I don't know who that is or what BSNES is (emulator, I assume), but that's unfortunate. RIP.

Tell me again how Kiwifarms "Does good"?

[CaptHayfever]

I kinda knew who Near was (& may they rest in peace), but TIL something called "Kiwi Farms" exists. What is it?

And remember,....

[I REALLY HATE POKEMON!]

Sounds delicious but I've never heard of it either. Since VGA said "**** Kiwi Farms" I'm assuming they're not peddling yummy smoothies but instead harassment or something. Might look into this a bit.

EDIT: I couldn't find any good articles about this, just some vague ones, but if anyone's interested I searched around for some info. I still don't know what Kiwi Farms did exactly but according to Wikipedia it's a website that seems to be full of trolls who have a tendency to harass people, so that's probably what they did. Looking through a topic on ResetEra (another trash site) about Near, someone seemingly familiar with him said this (before his suicide):

"Some people have had an irrational hatred for Byuu for over a decade now, with his stance on accuracy over speed, his work in cataloguing the whole SFC/SNES libraries, his disdain for hacks and special fixes to make specific games run disregarding how they should actually operate and the overall scene apathy towards actual preservation (since the Scene was all about working instead of really preserving, case in point Cemu)

His post about FPGA also attracted the ire of some Analogue fanboys back in the day over the SuperNT, those idiots not realizing that Byuu helped Kevtris make some of the more obscure games work through his accurate emulation and timings of the SFC."

If he's been harassed for a long time by an abusive emulation scene then maybe that was something Kiwi Farms latched onto, idk. There's no good reason to harass people but that is a particularly stupid reason.

Big bump, but I was reading about Bahamut Lagoon and saw Near mentioned, it reminded me of this topic. I looked this story back up because I forgot the details, and stumbled across some strange information. Apparently Near is likely not dead. Here's what I read:

Context: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=27657610
The US State Department recently released finalized figures for US citizens that died overseas in 2021. Source: https://travel.state.gov/content/travel ... stics.html

According to these figures, no US citizens died in Japan of non-natural causes between the months of June and December 2021, the time Byuu/Near is supposed to have committed suicide. The press articles at the time made no independent confirmation of the suicide, merely repeating claims from a Twitter user and an anonymous Google docs document.

Byuu/Near is probably still alive.

What a strange case...

I really do not see what is the problem with not just walking up to "Joshua Conner Moon" and doing what the US military did to Iraq and Afghanistan since 2001 to 2022 ??? Guy looks like a Gnome ....

Honestly I will admit that I have had suicide ideas in the past, however I got up and realize I could work towards other means. Beyond that I do not believe in the act of taking peoples lives and would rather actual justice, like if some how the murderers of Megan Meier in jail right now. Again look at Afghanistan and Iraq and the amount of innocent people who died for nothing.

How simple it would be if all these so called kiwi related corpses would rise out of their graves and get on a highway to where Joshua Moon was held up. That guy Fire Controlman 2nd Class Petty Officer Russell Tavares who burnt down John G. Anderson Trailer. He literally drove all those miles taking photos of each highway interstate and told him to get out of his house before he burnt it down. If a bunch of people could beat the founder of Russian-News to death in a hotel room why not Joshwa Moon ?????? Am I missing something here???? Even god step down and illustrated that President Bush should have never came back up from that peanut, and even after such a man threw his shoe not once but twice at him.

Joshua is a biblical name as well. I really do not agree with the idea of gentiles being seen as less then animals or even all the verbal abuse against Jesus Christ even featured in many films and animations. I do not know what his religious fraction is or his political views but clearly he comes from an "ideal" upbringing. Joshua Conner Moon

Just take him out. He is a very mortal person. He clearly is associated with intimidation that has led to peoples death. I am just throwing this out here..... Clearly this person is being abusive in such a way that is mentally disturbing free-minded people who have real lives. This is a real life person who clearly assisted-suicide and could be sued, taken to court and be held accountable for his actions in a court of law and displayed for all to see.

Just walk up to Joshua take out a knife and be like Rambo.

Candice Lynn Potter his mommy is a real flesh and blood person you literally could inform of her sons stupidity.

This person forum was made to literally to push Chris Chan to their death. In fact possible linked to that daughter of airline pilot who encouraged the disgusting behavior.

[I REALLY HATE POKEMON!]

Hey there, welcome to VGF!

The only name you mentioned that rings a bell is Chris Chan, I heard about him on Tucker Carlson. I believe Carlson said that he raped his own elderly mother, I'm not sure how much sympathy I can muster for such a vile criminal. They all sound like bad people to me.

[Gametrek]

Alright I will be honest I through Christ Chan was a guy but is really a gal. Lets keep that in mind.

1.They were trying to get these people to commit suicide.

2. Isabella Loretta Janke the daughter of an Mother airline pilot ( former airforce pilot ) and Father a former military officer who wrote a book and remarried a former secret service agent. On purposely pushed the idea on to CC. Then to top it off she attempted to collect evidence so they could report them. Even talking to them casually and using "power-of-command". Basically a drug-bust type tactic where you pretend to be somebodies friend and get them with evidence. Like that film "Escape from Turkey"

3. All to get CC to commit suicide but in this case almost locked up for nothing.

.........

Incest is not really against the law but the term "criminal-rape" is

Which CC provided evidence for cause of alarm and allow local authorities to check out

Again this could only be pursued in a court if there is a victim. However is easy to drop.

Which eventually happen

..........


I feel more worst for CC being manipulated by these lazy online predators. These people are awful. They look for people to take advantage of and attempt to have ____ power over them.

Isabella Loretta Janke is basically the same class as Helter Skelter. She has no emotion at all and does not care. That is how terrible this person is. Just like Helter Skelter who sat in the corner and watched somebody being ____ to death laughing at them she believes this is a big joke.
..................

If you think it is wrong to feel mercy for CC. but again you would also diss me for admiring Anders Breivik. Ander Breivik worked a call-center job, brought a farm. Worked the farm to make more money and open three other farms. Then carried out his task. That is no different then me working terrible jobs just to get tools and pay for my bills and tuition in college. I am admiring the fact that he did real hard labor and ran a legitimate business not the fact he went impersonated a police officer and ran around an island shooting minors calling himself a political prisoner.

The problem with CC is that there was literally "no pain and suffering applied". That is your parent, they have seen you naked you have seen them, and what actions you and them do is virtually free and natural. But CC literally made a paper-trail to a hotel-signature or TOS of facebook, or even Messages on a phone. They did not work, toil, or actually do anything academic or hell-bent suffering labor. They did something and provided evidence which created an actual lawful alert

All manipulated to get them to commit suicide by Isabella Loretta Janke and Joshua Conner Moon. Between them they should just make their own seed and run their house of ______.

What they did to CC pure evil and just wrong. These people abuse their power. They treat CC like some Participating homeless person in "BumFights" Video. Even Bumfights is infinity more decent then what these people attempted to do.

[I REALLY HATE POKEMON!]

I only knew about Chris Chan from one news segment I saw so I don't know all the details aside from Chris being sent to a male prison. I assumed it was rape because the mother must be fairly old as Chris appears to be around mid 40's. In fact I had to do a bit of Googling just to keep up with this conversation, but apparently the mother had dementia, so she cannot consent in her state of mind.

Regardless, that suicide stuff is still awful, I acknowledge that, but I know nothing of it relating to Chris Chan so I'll take your word for it. Still, it's a separate issue from Chris' own crime.

Now that's something I'm familiar with, I remember Bum Fights. That was rather exploitative and harmful, it's difficult to say which is worse, but it wasn't decent by any stretch of the imagination.

When I look up CC it says it is a girl. Honestly age is just a number. CC was manipulated. Those people who are literally pushing for suicidal activities needs to die. These are mortal people, very mortal people. They are loser. CC is a victim.....Remember that. That person who reported them pushed the idea into their head. The sicko lives off her mother.

https://www.the-sun.com/news/3394857/who-chris-chan/

A girl dude...... a girl. I know I thought it was a dude ( from the picture ) but looking again that is a girl.

The person dressed themselves up with a unicorn horn on their head. Which should obviously point to something mental occurring wrong.

Stop going on the "Kill all men parade" bs. A girl manipulated another girl into doing something and then taddled on her. This person even have a lawyer she paid for ( I am not kidding ). She planned ahead just to do this with money from a person who flys people ( by the hundreds at a time ) over seas.

Again the person who snitched pushed the idea into their head just to get them into commit suicide.

[I REALLY HATE POKEMON!]

I wasn't really focusing on the mother's age so much as her medical condition. Dementia is a serious condition.

We're all responsible for our own decisions, Chris Chan obviously made a bad one. And I don't really know what you mean by "kill all men". A lot of the stuff you're talking about I'm just not understanding, like flying hundreds of people overseas, I don't understand.

[Gametrek]

Isabella Loretta Janke and Joshua Conner Moon committed what is called "Premeditated-Murder", which is when you have the intent-to-kill.
They further even broke other laws like "assisted-suicide" and misleading of dependent individuals.

CC would never do anything if they were not manipulated into it. She was taken advantage of. Like if I lied to somebody to get them to perform a specific action which left them in an odd position. CC and her mother could wrestle for all I care and non of it would matter to anybody but CC own family.

I go out into the real world and find tons of people who are scummy like that. Especially in the employment scene. It is like walking into a club looking for somebody to dance with and somebody who thinks they are bigger then you and is preventing you from being anything to anyone.

..........................................................

Turker Carlson is a little #$@b$. He exist to be a puppet. He only says what is written. Just so he could look pretty on camera all day long and get a hummer under his desk, like the rest of everybody else. His report is flawed. Logically we could jump to the conclusion of using key words like "rape". In an attempt to condemn men in general and promote mindless bickering among family members.

............................................................

If CC had a head on their shoulders they would file suite ( take out a law suite ) against her assailants and go to court against them. Let the lawyers work their magical lawyernese at them. That is what needs to happen.
