Reason for complaint: In January I was playing one of my Cargo Technicians, Ryan Barrett and I was approached by Estoy on her Scientist Taika Thomson who began berating Ryan for being a horrible person. In fairness he is a pretty horrible person and I went along with it because I have a lot of interactions like this on Ryan but then Estoy implied that Ryan had raped an Unathi on station, and it spiralled into LOOC. She accused me of "going too far" and that I should ask the player of the Unathi if I didn't believe her that it happened. I immediately cryoed and went to one of the Unathi players friends who was able to get into contact with said Unathi player. The best part of this is that the player in question who plays the Unathi who had been "raped" by my character, had NO IDEA what Estoy was talking about, and told their friend who was equally as confused, to tell me that there wasn't an issue, as nothing like this ever occurred. I was rightfully furious with Estoy as they had accused me of basically acting out some rape fantasy on station and instead of coming to me privately about it they decided to air it out in LOOC where everyone around us, and all the ghosts spectating could see.
Estoy came to me in my DMs and apologised for it, I ignored it for a while but eventually accepted it and said it was best that we keep our distance and not talk about this in the future. After a few days I had found out that Estoy had spread this rumour to other people, who then had spread it further and I was getting DMs from other people about the situation. They admitted to speaking to other people about it but promised to tell them the "revised story" but I don't believe they ever did, and one of the other players that they had told had made an IR about it happening. I messaged said player about what had happened and the IR was taken down. I was even more angry now than last time and I told them I didn't want anything to do with them after I had found out they spread this false narrative.
I think it was no more than a week after I got a PM from somebody telling me that Estoy had been in their DMs, breaking down and playing the depression card. They had left all of the Aurora servers as well as another discord that we shared mutual membership in. I felt that I was forced into messaging them and trying to get them to calm down as they were hysterical and the person that had messaged me was concerned about it all, and wanted me to be the bigger man. I eventually was able to get them to stop blaming themselves for what had happened but I personally believe this was just a tactic to garner sympathy after doing such a stupid thing. I told them firmly again that I did not want anything to do with them and that was that.
The only reason that I make this complaint is after telling them at least three times to leave me alone, they are constantly coming up to me in game and writing "Hi goolies :)" over and over in LOOC and then trying to get me to interact with their characters. I feel as if I cannot say anything too firm to them, as they have broken into tears and PMed other people where they play the victim card and basically emotionally manipulate the entire situation. I am at wits end and I was not sure what else to do but make a private complaint about this. If I were to make it public, I assume that Estoy would once again try and play with peoples emotions for sympathy reasons. I was told by the person who made me aware that she does this, that it happens often.
Did you attempt to adminhelp the issue at the time? I ended up messaging Alberyk who told Estoy to drop the entire thing and not speak of it again.
Approximate Date/Time: This happened around the 10th of January, and has continued on from there until now.
Since this happened such a while ago, I am currently in the process of collecting all of the screenshots. If whoever takes this complaint can DM me on discord, I can send the ones I have collected so far to you.
