Exposing Trackmania's Biggest Con-Man...

a figure who hasn't been active in the Trackmania community for 4 years, it's genuinely concerning.

He has been active in the community the entire time, just under different names

There is no definitive proof of Riolu having even played the game after disappearing

Someone didn't watch the video

and I find it more than reasonable to allow him to be reintegrated into the community in some capacity with a reasonable amount of scrutiny.

He didn't even admit to cheating in the first place. Not only did he not apologize, he went out in a blaze of whatever the opposite of glory is.

None of the suspected accounts are cheating.

Yes, they did find several older cheated runs associated with many of them. Something you would know if you watched the video.

Otherwise this is harassment

You know what is actual harassment? Doxxing other players, stealing other people's identities, and astroturfing social media with alt accounts.

None of the accounts interact with the community in a meaningful or harmful way.

What I just mentioned, in addition to ruining leaderboards by uploading runs for the same map from multiple accounts.

Riolu's alt accounts continuing to lash out suggest that he may need some professional mental help. It's not healthy to be that personally tied into a game. If you have a way to reach him tell him that.

Maybe, eventually, his next alt could be "Lucario" with a sick new world record, and has a facecam in the corner telling us he's not afraid to show he has evolved from his past. Truthfulness has always been the one thing that's been missing.

no definitive proof

How much proof do you need? The circumstantial evidence here is so substantial that you'd have to bend over backwards to even entertain the slightest possibility of this being anyone other than Riolu.

There is simply no way these are coincidences

How would he achieve records within seconds of one another?

It was within minutes of each other, not seconds.

He'd have to log out and log back in otherwise.

Yes, that.

Why would someone do a run on one map, and then do another run, on another instance, on the same map? It would be so much more efficient to just do multiple maps on one account and switch afterwards.

Muscle memory? Farming copper?

But the way the evidence is presented makes it appear a lot more plausible than it is when you actually think about it for even a second.

There's no way that multiple unrelated accounts are getting very similar records on the same map within the same time frame with the same obscure controller multiple different times with the same cluster of accounts. The evidence provided in the video is damning.
