Hey lads. I've hesitated to bring this up again because the thread went quiet and I didn't want to resurrect it just to bring attention to somebody who wasn't really involved in it.
However, recently, MarinaTV was banned on Twitch for shamelessly exploiting the new guidelines to show off his fully nude model and explicit emotes. He apparently did this for six whole hours and his moderators banned anyone in chat who tried to tell him he was still
blatantly violating even the insanely unclear guidelines Twitch temporarily approved.
He was inevitably banned from Twitch, for something like 24 hours at most, and is now unbanned. His channel had a major spike in viewers thanks to this, and it's extremely obvious he played the 'i am an oppressed trans woman who is definitely not a demented grooming autogynephilic' card as a calculated PR move, which he undoubtedly benefited from even after eating a ban.
This prompted a revelation from former VTRainbow member Lenox, on the unban message.

I reached out to Lenox at the time VTRainbow first fell apart, asking for her side of the story. She did not respond, but claims that Twitter hid my messages and she didn't notice them at first. Considering the content of the messages I sent, I believe her. When she DID contact me on December 1, she was extremely helpful and did her best to explain things to me. Here's a list of bulletpoints.
- Marina and his lackies are still trying to ruin her behind the scenes as of her contacting me.
- One of these major harassers is SilvySpark, who has been contacting both Lenox and her entire known contact list, plus all of her advertisers/sponsors, accusing her of being racist, transphobic, etc. He is described as 'a Marina simp till the day he dies', and is constantly making alt accounts to continue trying to contact Lenox after she broke contact with him.
- One of the alt accounts is PhatSlovenian (omegalul).
- Multiple other former VTRainbow members have suffered similar harassment, most are scared to speak out for fear of their responses being used to further slander and isolate them.
- Lenox is a biological woman, does not consider herself more than vaguely associated with the LGBTQ community and has only further distanced herself from it due to these events.
Given how open she was with me despite having already read this thread and knowing about the negative things said about her in it, I would be sincerely appreciative if people toned down further speculation about her. I'm not asking you to love her, visit her streams, donate to her or anything else, just be a bit nicer. She had every reason to tell me 'lol no I'm not talking to you assholes', but instead she responded politely.
We need that kind of trust if we are to be more than /vt/. Anyway, that's enough moralizing.
Above all else, it's clear that Marina is worse and worse with every passing revelation. This latest admission clearly paints him in an outright paedophilic light, and given all I now know about streamer culture, I entirely believe these accusations. I don't know how deep this rabbit hole goes, but I'm absolutely
certain it goes deeper than this.
