How long ago did this take place?
Happens often, id say anytime from today to since he got staff (2 ish months ago)
Give us a brief description of the incident.
There is a zs event called "teambattlegrounds" that staff+ can enable, which replaces all the props on the map with guns that players can pick up and fight each other.
The issue is that the event was bugged. You could choose your loadout before starting the event, giving yourself an advantage. It was also bugged in the way that it would multiply your rewards when played on an event map (ex. zs_construct_excess). On construct, it would give 20 draft chests and 500k exp, as opposed to the 1 draft chest when normally playing the map. Decay would pick his loadout before starting the event for an advantage, and would often do the event on zs_construct_excess to give himself a bunch of exp and draft chests. Although I don't have proof of this, decay has admitted that he has done this around 3 times, and players have called him out on it before. When I was dev, I even disabled the event because Decay had kept doing it, but it has since then been re-enabled by Decay after I stepped down (what a surprise).
Decay has also been doing silent updates through Ptero. Because he wasn't dev and didn't have gitlab access at the time, he was editing files directly into Ptero and told me/others not to tell anyone. He made incredibly unbalanced updates (ex. adding reforger and healingray into obj maps, buffing bosses to extreme lengths, etc). Even after he got gitlab access, he claimed he was tired of waiting for Kigen to merge and just added the changes to live through Ptero. He has been doing this for a while, making changes through Ptero then making a bunch of gitlab commits even after the changes were already on live, as to not look suspicious. That's why on gitlab, he made 20-30 commits less than a few seconds apart. His reasoning being "They can't demote me, because I am the only one pushing updates".
