There is a discord group in the official 1337x subreddit, the user was just a vip user, not a staff/moderator and he deleted comments after posting a malware in order to keep the release alive. Maybe he was trusted before posting it, and 1337x staff are a few people (lately even less) so he wasn’t blocked quickly. Nothing more. I hope 1337x will make an announcement.
The user who posted malware was under a blue nikname:
Black - admin
Green - moderator
Blue - vip
Yellow - uploader
Red - trial uploader
Grey - user
There wasn’t any member of the staff that was helping the vip user to delete comments. He was just deleting comments under its own post by himself.
There is no official 1337x subreddit or discord group. Go to the 1337x official chat room (link on the front page of 1337x.to) and ask about a discord group or sub reddit and they will tell you its fake.
Thanks! I don’t know why a VIP would have this kind of power but that’s exactly the kind of explanation I was looking for because (as usual) a lot of people claim all kind of shit whenever they get a chance and it can be hard to understand what actually happened, glad it’s not as bad as it seemed at first glance! :)
But that doesn’t make it better. It makes it worse. So there is a VIP who uploads a miner. First the mods defend the VIP and the upload but later have to admit that it’s a miner. Then mods can’t do anything because the admin, the only one who could ban the VIP and uploader is AWOL since who knows; a long time. So effectively the topic is correct, the site is not safe. Uploaders can do what they want and cannot get punished because the few mods left can’t do anything and the admin is missing.

So the VIP can’t even be banned by a mod? That’s a fucked up system and I can only woder why it worked at all for such a long time!
