First off, @ESOTERICshade is @rarepeeks. This is not a joke. Yes, there are loads of archives and image backups that will never be deleted, should he disappear or delete.
Why is this a problem? Manufacturing consensus and vote manipulation. Other users never seem to push ESOTERIC's narrative, just his alts.
Here he is lying about his intentions in order to make his main username seem reasonable while his alts attack Vindicator.
How about voting on major changes to the subverse? His main username was ALL OVER that thread, and made THAT vote in some Crensched nest, but here's his alt's vote.
You know how the pedophiles we all want dead mock those around them by hinting at what they're really doing by admitting to something smaller?
Here he is admitting to being @smurfy69, innocently UPVOTING comments not because they were good, admitting to upvoting himself, where he has upvoted 422 times and downvoted 127 times on ONE account. Does anyone REALLY think he isn't brigading? Oh wait, Here's RAREPEEKS (ALSO ESOTERIC) numbers at 725 upvoted and 354 downvoted
@Puttitout, please see the above paragraph.
You'll also notice BOTH Esoteric and his smurfy69 account commenting in this concern troll thread by @ArtificalDuality -- both claiming to have suffered torture from directed energy weapons. Exactly the kind of LARPy concern troll bullshit known liar and drama queen @Jem777 was posting before Vindicator banned her - and she's also helping push it in this thread. You'll also find twistedmac11 joining in there.
@twistedmac11 seems more than a little invested in ESOTERICshade keeping his good name. And he always, always, always, always, JFC always, fuck... shows up to defend or agree with ESOTERIC. No, that's not everything. That's a very, VERY small fraction, yes, it's all archived and saved.
How much of what you see here has been shaped by him? Does any legitimate user really agree with him, or does he just groom new users into being his cheerleaders when he and his alts do their dirty work?
Here's @DeathtoMasonsASAP somehow finding a deeply-nested comment to respond to, and has that typical ESOTERIC-style Vindicator hate found on a verified alt here, here, and here.
Here's ES lying again about him thinking the rest of the mods are "cool" while attacking one. It's usually either that, or thinking all the mods are awful except one. Never really seems to commit one way or the other. Always has to pretend to be on the side of one of the mods, like this cringey shit where he tries to brown-nose kevdude.
I'm sure everyone now knows that the colloquially known "Donkey" is also @auralsects. What do you make of this where @auralsects responds where @ESOTERICshade should have? No, ES did NOT respond to that on the correct username at all, even after the fact. And who in their right mind would say this? Here he is talking about Donkey's JOB; who in their right minds would say THAT?
There are more usernames being researched, but what do you all see in these links?

Feel free to ping all those users you know that are friendly to this pedophile-protecting D&C shill. I fully intend to put every single one of them under the microscope, along with anyone that attacks my mods.
This is why you have a MASSIVE asshole as an [O] mod. THIS is why I'm not nice to you. THIS is why I don't do daily mod duties here. THIS is why your mods want me where I am. THIS is the avalanche I created just by picking a fight with your loudest blowhard member that almost none of you called out. THIS IS WHAT I DO. And to all of you that even look at my goddamned mods sideways without a VERY good reason:
No more Mr. Nice Crensch.
EDIT
@twistedmac11 got flustered and lied about never supporting anyone trying to destroy the subverse, prompting @Vindicator to dig this one up.
EDIT 2
@Vindicator made the comment below about ESOTERIC's bullshit:
Here, @EsotericShade claims he's so ignorant of technology (a "retard") he had to make all these alts because passwords are too hard to remember.
But eight months ago, here he is having a conversation about how to use VPNs to game the voting system. Doesn't sound too tech ignorant here, now does he?
Incidentally, that thread shows him using multiple alts to try to take over a rule discussion, voting multiple times via different accounts and even bitching when Crensch missed votes that weren't made as top level comments that would be seen in his notifications. Lots of brigading, too. Here are three of them talking to each other, pushing the idea the mod team is run by intelligence operatives.
There are multiple comments by him in that thread as ES, rarepeeks, twistedmac11, dragonkiller and others concern trolling the idea that the rule discussion is some kind of trap created by Crensch to get people's names on a hit list -- he simultaneously votes multiple times and tries to scare other people away from letting their voice be heard. It's rather appalling how glaring it is in this thread, actually.

I have a question. Since this user insists on acting like a wannabe AI (or not idk) couldn't it be banned on some sort of interpretation of the spam rule? @think- @Vindicator

I can only speak for myself and for my experiences with ES. I've been here for close to a couple of years, taking a break in between. From my experience, ES was a good researcher with interesting info to add. I question the motives of the mods when they insist on stickying this garbage for months on end. All I have seen is Voat brigading, bullying, trolling and the most vile verbal abuse from the mods towards good people. Crensch is only implicating himself by insisting on such ridiculous stickies. The links he posts are unclear and nebulous and are not evidence of the claims he makes.
Vindicator ago
So, you don't have any problem at all with Esoteric "posting good research" to win over a bunch of folks, and then creating a bunch of fake accounts to violate the rules of Voat, echoing and upvoting his opinions and downvoting those he wanted to silence? You don't have a problem with him pretending to be a good guy, and then viciously attacking numerous users he wanted shut down?
That pretty much shows you are not fit for this subverse.
Oh really? Is that like me banning Jem777 for repeatedly refusing to honor the submission rules "implicated" me in her "murder"?
What a joke.
Piscina ago
If you and some of the other mods acted with a modicum of decorum, I might take you seriously. You hurt yourself and the reputation of all mods when you plainly target users and then leave these stickies up for months.
Vindicator ago
All right, Piscina. Show me where I have "failed to act with decorum"!
I come here every day. Read every thread. When I see suspicious shitheads manipulating users, I spend hours researching their history trying to discern whether they are here for good or evil, so that I can document it and eventually expose them. On three separate occasions, I have been on this board in the middle of the night when a desperate user came out of lurkdom and made a completely rule-breaking meta post reaching out in despair, with a gun in their hand ready to end their own lives. I had to find words of strength, encouragement and hope that would reach through the darkness and fortify their hearts and then I had to force myself to remove their post for breaking the rules.
It fucking sucked.
But it had to be done, or the people who want to disrupt this board would flood us with fake suicidal posts to destroy morale. All three of those users were real -- they DMed me the next day, apologized, and thanked me. I have spent entire nights deleting wave after wave of the most disgusting hentai spam from v/PiNaH pedos so that our many survivors would not even have to see thumbnail pictures of that shit.
I have been targeted every single day by those who want to mess with users here. I am called a censor. I am called a pedo. I am called a shill. I am called Mossad. I am called a murderer. Jem told everyone I stole her IP address and sent thugs to her house to beat her up. @effyoujohnpodesta made similar claims -- and spread them on Twitter, blocking me in hopes I wouldn't see them. When I call out this bullshit and @Crensch gets involved as part of his job to prevent corrupt mods, users like you claim we're "targeting users".
I have poured over users' comment histories for hours to identify those with the fortitude, discernment, patience and equilibrium to help watch over this place, invited them to mod, and forty times out of fifty been told sorry, they didn't want to to take the heat. Because of users like you, who would rather believe proven shills and disinfo pushers and defend them, and then claim mods are the bad guys.
You are collaborating with your own abuse. Well done.

I call you brother... I will always have your back, my brother in arms.
ESOTERICshade ago
You were a total dick for trying to shove Qanon down the sub of pizzagate. It was your biggest failing moment.
Other than that, I appreciate what you do and I think you are a good person and that you do a good job. Don't let one bone of contention drag your legacy in the gutter, bro :)
EricKaliberhall ago
You are one sleazy, disgusting whore @ESOTERICshade... I will make sure that you and ALL your alts are flaired 'confirmed shill'... It's my life's mission now.
ESOTERICshade ago
You have the mentality of a frog and I can't believe I am wasting my time to reply to you, idiot.
EricKaliberhall ago
I can't believe you are wasting your time trying to weasel your way back... EVERYONE knows about you and your alts, yet you continue. Its like you are payed to be here... Oh, my frog mentality got it now. You are payed to be here. Cheap whore.
ESOTERICshade ago
I have more trusted friends in this one little forum than you have ever had in your entire real life. Must suck to be you :)
EricKaliberhall ago
Name one... That's not your alt. just one. :)

(Pssst, esoteric has admitting to giving money to other voat users. It's easy to have friends when you giving out cash).
ESOTERICshade ago
I help lots of people. Its something I can do and it makes the world a better place. In my lifetime I have given out somewhere around 400 tents, blankets, and tons of food to homeless people. Not to mention individual gifts to people in stress. You think thats a bad thing?
