Meanwhile, we had a big explosion with a staff member who was caught "in the middle" and somehow took it out on me explicitly and started an incredible campaign against me in all sorts of channels. First, I received death threats against my family and me. Honestly, this was the worst period of my life in our community. We announced the situation as "Clone Wars" and took action to clean up the mess left behind by our cheating community members and the people who were doing Real Money Transactions (RMT) for credits and items in-game. And a subsystem for analysis (Sauron) that interfaces with our CSR tooling (C3PO). It was a horrible time meanwhile, I continued to write a highly complex transaction logging system called Eye of Sauron. Others were certain every proposed action was the end of our project. This caused an incredible amount of debate on what to do, and some people leaked things we were doing to public channels. Then in July 2020, I hand enough data to start sharing internally with staff.

I spent excessive time tracking cheaters in secret while also adding code to audit the auctions system. Meanwhile, we started getting reports of issues with Auctions, so I started digging into ancient and chaotic code that implements the Auctions. It was quite a cat-and-mouse process, code pvp if you will. I created the ability to push code silently to Basilisk because our cheating friends watched for reboots and "tested" their exploits on each reboot. While I was sick, we still tried to drive forward on many fronts, including better organization and more tooling to identify the cheaters.

Meanwhile, I was hiring people 100% virtual, never met, just on video, and trying to bring them up to speed without a single in-person meeting and no time in the office.

Suddenly, my employees and I had to quickly figure out how to be successful 100% remote overnight.

Oh, and then my employer announced "work from home" lockdown the very next day. Then in February of 2020, I got incredibly sick, ended up in the hospital, lost 20 lbs (11% of my weight), and it took until March 10, 2020, before my doctors cleared me for work again. I could write a novel about this period of time. Then TheAnswer and I went dark and started doing deep investigations into what these people were doing. The interview led to someone coming forward about the duper's, and then when Scurby and Farelli talked, we got even more leads. It's been a very tough couple of years, and we have not had time for more interviews with everything going on in real life (TM) and all the drama about dupers and RMT'ers. I saw this as a recent post and thought, "Wow, Mobius is going to do another interview with LK two years later?".
