DataByte made that list on his own.
What about Daringshepard? We know he had at least one co-conspirator.

And maybe he has more, too. If someone can get into contact with the guy, they should probably ask if there’s more he can tell about DaringShepard.

DataByte’s Fimfiction account is banned:

Can’t tell if he did it himself or if knighty kicked his ass for what he did. But he might have requested that ban, so he could be on retreat from the fandom. If there’s anything you wanna keep from Fimfetch, you’ll better get it now before that site might be lying in the eternal cyber coffin soon.

Daringshepard was most likely in with DataByte on making the list, yes. Anyone else, bystanders caught in the crossfire that wanted nothing to do with it.

Slightly updated the PCL name list with a little bit of new info:

overcast, who mods on G5: Chatter of Ponies, seems to be EQD’s G5 news poster, too, staff page on Equestria Daily lists a user with that name as “G5 Reporter”.
Could verify that .derpi. is also yet another mod of EQD’s Discord server and moved him up into the EQD section.

Don’t give them what they want, dude. Their whole operation existed for that, to scare people they don’t like out of the fandom for wrongthink. Mask your IP and get back into those servers and otherwise stick to the chad servers that aren’t power-crazed. They’ll see it as victory if someone leaves because of their activity, they’ll probably pat each other’s shoulders already just because you said that. Stay strong, man, and make them lose.

Special thanks to HK-FortySeven over on Fimfiction for posting my list there. You’re a based chad, man. Ty for helping out with posting where I can’t go.

Also from the new version of the page:
“Due to the abuse of this document by malicious actors, both against supporters of the report and against implicated users (note: as if he cares, lol), the decision has been made to make the contents of this page private for the time being.”
>for the time being.
So it’s meant to be made public someday. Until then, only “trusted individuals” get to see it, aka, all the mods and server owners who then indiscriminately ban users from their Discord servers.
He’s really trying to force half the fandom into a mass exodus out of Discord.

And he’s also directing harassment towards Derpibooru and Fimfiction staff:
“Nor did I intend on using this document to attempt to convince the operators of Fimfiction or Derpibooru to change their policies, especially seeing as both platforms have made policies and financial decisions to protect this content and have staff who actively engage with foalcon and/or lolicon.”
>Secret code for “I can’t make them remove foalcon from their sites, but all of you who read this and are on my side can, harass them until they do.”

Some people still give PhoenixFire42 the benefit of the doubt that he didn’t approve of DataByte’s list and that Pony Community Leaders wasn’t a ban list. Not many people. But some. But this server was a large-scale, conspiratory attack on the entire brony fandom and not everyone outside of /mlp/ and mlpol is fully aware of the dimensions of what has transpired here. So let’s make sure that everyone and their ninja hamster knows about it and that there is absolutely not the smallest shred of doubt about PCL’s intentions.

Some compiled information, sorted chronologically and picked apart for truth, with screenshots sourced from public places (one server, being PCL, that was invite-only, but had almost 200 members and any moderator from any server who was interested could join, so it was not a private server by any means, but handed around like free candy, also, this server does not exist anymore) or publically released by the person who capped their own DM. Additionally, all screenshots displayed are already in circulation around the fandom. If possible, the source of the screenshot is linked.

A step by step guide to unmask the damage control and lies by PhoenixFire42 and the PCL:
>
>
>
>
PhoenixFire42, head moderator on Equestria Daily’s Discord server, has found out they have a leaker in the PCL server. He has hidden the channel where all the reports of “problem users” were collected. This already shows they have something to hide, particularly, what users were reported and for what reason they got reported. If that channel had been dumped, too, everyone who is affected would have a serious talk with their server owners, admins and moderators about why they got banned for innocuous reasons or off-server behavior, without breaking a server rule, and talk about that in public on their accounts on other sites, too. And the involved servers would receive mega amounts of backlash from everywhere in the fandom and have their rep completely ruined. So PhoenixFire42 buried the evidence.

PhoenixFire42 distances himself from DataByte’s list and says he did not want the list (but only because he gets backlash for it now, he regrets that people associate him with the list). He also reveals himself as being the owner of Pony Community Leaders.
>
>
>
>
Arnak, admin on the Discord server Ponies React!, talks about how leaks of reports have been happening for a while on PCL. He also alludes that he reckoned with it that the reports will eventually want to make one of their own to leak the entire server, implying there are reports that are outrageous and that he is to some degree aware of it how wrong it is what they’re doing.
PhoenixFire42 replies that he knew about leaks, but that he couldn’t stop them, and confirms that their entire operation was supposed to be secret.

ComradeSparkle, fellow moderator on EQD’s Discord, joins in and addresses 4chan and the leaker. The damage control begins. ComradeSparkle claims that the reports on PCL are not a ban list and that they exist for “informational purposes only”. He further explains that most reports are of users who have broken a rule in one server by posting something that’s acceptable in another server, e.g. posting porn in a SFW server.
The question I ask myself here is, why would a Discord mod, who has banned a user for posting porn because that’s forbidden by the rules on their server, make a report about this user on a secret moderation Discord server built to collect information on “problematic” users, if not so that mods from servers with the same rule can ban the user on their servers, too, just in case they might eventually break the same rule there? That’s some Minority Report-type shit here. But it gets better.

PhoenixFire42 loses his nerves and attacks the leaker, after they shared several screenshots of PCL messages on 4chan. He mentions that he created “a repository”. It’s unclear whether he means the entire server, the reports channel or DataByte’s list with that. But it’s an interesting enough statement. What is he talking about?
He continues with saying that PCL is a safe place to share infos about “degenerates” who are a threat to minors, seemingly alluding to what ComradeSparkle said a few minutes before. Posting porn on a SFW server where minors gather meets that definition. So do people who enjoy foalcon, at least in the eyes of people like DataByte, and DataByte took information for his list from PCL’s reports channel, as ComradeSparkle confirmed on the previous screenshot. How did information about users who like foalcon get into PCL’s reports channel? This confirms that the moderators on PCL have already reported Discord users for being affiliated with foalcon. And carries some implication that PhoenixFire42 has the same opinion about foalcon.
With the last sentence in his message, PhoenixFire42 shows that he is okay with people being put on public lists. But remember: PCL is NOT a ban list.

An interesting side note here is that he says he decided to remove DataByte’s list from PCL on the same day he learned about the server leak and that PCL is on blast. It seems he had no problem with the list being there before that happened.

Continuing to talk on 4chan, PhoenixFire42 shares his defnition of “problem users”, people who try to do ERP with minors or who post clop in boards they know minors are in.

PhoenixFire42 and ComradeSparkle are not quite on the same line there.

WestRail642fan, who is on DataByte’s list for faving and drawing Foalcon (I won’t link it here, to not give it more attention, but if you already know where to find it, you can verify it there), gets banned from the Discord server G5: Chatter of Ponies. He inquires about it to musicalrainbow (aka Citrus Le Monbow), one of the moderators on this server. musicalrainbow tells him that G5: Chatter of Ponies received a list that links him to Foalcon and informs him that the admins decided this is unacceptable and to ban him for this.
After inquiring further, musicalrainbow asks zatillias, another moderator, if WestRail642fan can do anything to get unbanned. zatillias forwards them to Marsh Marlowe, admin of the server, but says that they personally prefer not having someone on the server who is attracted to child characters. Marsh Marlowe decides that the ban is permanent.
Both mods and the admin of G5: Chatter of Ponies have joined PCL’s server. It’s not a ban list.
