Talk:History of SS13

A post I found and may reword into the page:

AZA, (the main developer of this particular knock-off), was given the original ss13 source by the creator, Exadv. AZA then proceeded to leak the code (which wasn't his to leak) and then got really, really mad when goons took the leaked code and made Goonstation. (he seemed to be fine with tg and the like taking the code, though)

What followed was AZA sending out legal threats and (misspelled) cease & desist letters to goonstation (obviously written by himself.) Trying to make byond drop goonstation from the hub, rallying attacks on goonstation etc.

Eventually he decided to make his own server, but could only find people like android data (pages could be written) to help. AZA unexpectedly disappeared shortly after, and served a jail sentence for some kind of fraud.

So the main dev is an ex con goonhater who couldn't even run a ss13 server. More you know

So in addition to the leak, this is the relevant stuff for this wiki I wrote for the history on the sol wiki. Incorporate it if you want *shrug

"So, most of Goonstation's code got leaked by a dude named 0xCSRF. He obtained it by finding an admin's password in a hacked password dump from xplit and found the repository on bitbucket. Someone named ErikHanson paid him 1 BTC to not leak it/give him a copy?, but that did not work at all. It was leaked and put on Github. The story still continues on that front."
