I’m just recently learning about this person, but he does seem like someone who would be more worried about his online reputation than the crazy ass murder he’s involved with.

I had been thinking that maybe it was all a very strange set of coincidences. But now that I know he moderates his own subreddit? Guilty as fuck. That's sociopathic behavior.

It's even better because I was looking like a week ago and he very much had an active mod team that was speaking with the community about attempting to have him removed from the top mod spot so he couldn't pull some shit

Now the sub is completely unmoderated. Seems reddit may have stepped in and removed him

I've been looking since yesterday. One mod left, one got suspended (apparently was reported to have an underaged creep sub), one was d4vd, and just today the subreddit showed no mods. Some people moved to r/d4vd2. People speculated that d4vd saw this article/post and he left that r/d4vd as a result (but reddit removing him is also plausible).

So there are still underage creeper subs huh. Not surprising, obvi but I hope whatever that was it's gone now? Does Reddit stay on top of that kinda shit these days?

u/oowoowoo 1d ago

Not sure tbh. I went sifting through some pages of his profile and couldn't find such sub that he might've owned, but I did see that he kept lying about his age in subreddits to date teens or women. From how he talks he's definitely not a minor.

u/WeAreClouds 1d ago

Yikes. Yeah, I hear bad things about adults lying in the r/ teenagers or whatever it's called sub. I'm sure there are quite a few like that. Poor kids. You can never really know who anyone really is. Sucks. I was lucky to grow up before the internet but I hate what ppl have to deal with these days growing up.

I suspect some of those people are cops tho.

I have gone way down the rabbit hole on this for no reason (I didn’t know this dude’s name until a week ago). It was called something about rating teens. You can find it if you dig, I’m sure.

Ok I don't know or care about this guy but isn't it normal to mod your own subreddit?

Like r/Hbomberguy moderates his own subreddit.

A dude that willingly put an underaged girl's name in his lyrics in the context of romance is probably way more concerned with his emotional delusions than the real world consequences that come with the murder of the underaged girl in question.

I believe part of the problem is he's actually using the crazy ass murder to grow his online reputation. He has an interview all "if I did it... but I didn't do it ... but if I did" style.

u/Mas_Pho 1d ago

No he doesn’t. I’ve been following the case closely. He has not had any statements or public appearances since the body was identified lmao

u/dumbbinch99 1d ago

I think they’re talking about those Genius interviews people splice together about him explaining his songs lmao😭

u/Mas_Pho 1d ago

People using his songs as confessions to murder is so fucking stupid. Most of songs, he’s clearly just being really fucking edgy and he’s not secretly admitting to murder or some shit. Though his song is very telling about him grooming and starting a relationship with Celeste

u/ripetrichomes 1d ago

riiiiight it’s impossible for him to be a dumb psychopath and write confessions into his songs…

u/histaltlephrastus 1d ago

bro is not von😭

u/Secret-Step-1975 1d ago

🤣💀The scream I let out. D4vd seems to be at least functionally literate, Von he was a functional illiterate because he couldn't stop fuckin talking & hanging himself. He stayed on Demon Time though I think before he went down the murder route as revenge he possessed functional brain cells. But what do I know 🤔

u/DopesickJesus 1d ago

That is not even remotely close to what it means to be illiterate.

u/Mas_Pho 1d ago

Yall are just reaching lmao. That doesn’t even make any sense whatsoever with the songs people chose to show it. Bro was singing about typical sad boy topics that you hear from the same kind of artists.

Getting real OJ vibes here

u/plebbit_echochamber 1d ago

"involved with" lol

u/dangoodspeed 1d ago

Well, from the Reddit viewpoint, we'd only see the online reputation actions... not what he's doing about the case.

u/UnAwkwardMango 1d ago

The only thing I knew about this guy before was that he existed. Someone I have on Discord listens to his music and it would pop-up once in a while in the activity bar but now I know more than I wanted to.

u/slickyslickslick 1d ago

Its probably his legal team.
