2024 Kelpy G allegations
On March 27, 2024 Cookie posted a link to a Google Doc in #announcements as a response to claims made by Kelpy G. The specific allegations which initially inspired the document's creation are not contained in the document. There are sections near the bottom of the document that allegedly exist to respond to a counter-document made by Kelpy G. The counter-document is not provided.
The document begins by alleging that in 2020 members Techstar, 17, and Judge_Red[a], early 20s, were in a romantic relationship and that allegedly in New York City the relationship is considered legal. Then, in 2022, Judge_Red applies to be a Discord moderator which the appropriate authorities accept. The document then alleges that Kelpy G requested an investigation into Judge_Red for having groomed them, allegedly at the time also 17, while Judge_Red was still in a relationship with Techstar. The document goes on to say that Judge_Red had been "firing/Demoted [sic]" according to an administration pre-dating Cookie. The resultant investigation determined the report was inconclusive, with the desired remedy of Judge_Red's termination being rejected on that basis, along with the previous demotion being seen as an adequate remedy. Cookie alleges to not have fully agreed with this outcome, but stated that their romantic partner Oriimo had full control and access to all his accounts, which Cookie characterizes as them having been incapable of doing anything aside from what they wanted. The document goes on to say that eventually Judge_Red was removed from staff, but retained access to a management-only Discord to act as a "Knowledge Archive" for documents that may still unknowingly be in their possession, along with events from 2018-2019 as Cookie's recollection of that time was "very cloudy". Judge_Red is alleged to have had no real-time access to management communications.
Kelpy G is alleged to not have known about Judge_Red's access to the management-only Discord until 2023, which upset them, with Kelpy G then sending what the document characterizes as hard-proof of the alleged grooming behavior when a document sent in 2022 was found insufficient due to screenshots not being attached.
