Some points: I did mean S instead of A. S never mentioned his involvement with the admin - the admin revealed it later on unintentionally since it was essentially very obvious knowledge that S created the video. The admin's involvement didn't skew community perception. Before I detail S's response to L's response, I should add on that S uploaded two videos before immediately privating them in response to L. The contents are similar, but the first video is more bare bones and claims that the misgendering was due to a lack of knowledge despite the given name being female and the video itself continuing to misgender (or at the very least, opting to continually use they/them). The second privated video is identical to the final upload, with messed up msuic. Now, S's response after L's initial response goes as follows: He claims L as a "well-known" cheater despite the community being minuscule. He tries to claim that he isn't S in the video - "they refer to us as "S" in their video so we will respond to the points that refer to him.". He claims that a fresh installation proves nothing (L even encouraged people to do it themselves if they didn't believe her game files were unmodified) and that L's instance of the game which she was doing the allegedly cheated run on was modified. S also claims that L could've edited the freshly downloaded instance before installing it (which I'm not sure how or why, especially since L displayed the game files in her video and it showed no modified values). Pointlessly, he then confirms that the files aren't edited "in this particular instance". He also confirms the downthermal Y level shown in the video (221). Despite refering to himself in plural at the start of the video, he refers to himself in singular in the next part when he says "L then goes on to say that the positioning of my downthermal is incorrect". Moving back to plural, he says "this is what our position of the downthermal is" in the next part of the video, showing one of the screenshots from the past video. He confirms that he's looking at Y 221 which is the correct position, and then shows a screenshot of L looking at 221 (based on F3 menu) which is one block higher than what S shows, and then S says that it's not the right position. He then shows himself at the same place L was looking at and says "L thinks the block Y level is the same as the player's standing/flying level" (reworded to be clearer). The next panel of the video says "we now have the proof that they don't know what they're talking about and are lying once again". Following this, he displays a screenshot from L's video where she's showing the position that S claimed that she was (6 blocks higher than reality and 4 above the downthermal), and then says that both his and L's placement of where L was in the run was above the downthermal, not accounting for L's explanation of S's placement of the downthermal being lower than her own. With that panel, the next one reads: "THEY EXPOSED THEMSELF LOL...". The next panel reads "for reference, if your hitbox ever touches the Y level that is set for the downthermal, you get sent back down, there is no other way" which is accurate. The next panel reads "now we will debunk their position even more by going into further detail of hitbox mechanics. here is the original screenshot we used to debunk their run" and then he shows the screenshot of L at peak height in her run and then himself at the same position but against the downthermal. He then shows himself flying with an elytra (like L in the original run) in Java edition and then touches against the glass barrier he made representing the downthermal while looking as far down as possible, reminiscent of L's run. With this, he displays that the highest coordinate he reached was 220.3, which is (according to him) the point where the downthermal was supposed to activate. The next panel: "when you're flying your hitbox is positioned in your legs, 1.1 blocks away from your standing/no elytra flying position" (this is true, but looking down doesn't make that hitbox rise higher like he's implying since the front of the character moves down rather than the centre). The next panel is him demonstrating it with firework rockets and staying against the glass, peaking at 220.3 (with F3 the coordinates are actually 220.4 at peak, so whatever mod he was using was inaccurate). The next panel says "when you look straight down your hitbox is pointed even higher in the air (L looked straight down)" (which I've already stated isn't true). Next panel: "because the glass is there, it caps at 220.3, if the red part of the hitbox goes above 220.3 your white part will collide with the downthermal and it will activate" which assumes that the downthermal acts the same way as a physical block and that Java/legacy console edition physics are identical in this scenario. The hitbox jargon is related to the character hitboxes in F3 - the red part (square) is the highest visual portion of the player (I believe) while the white (cube) is the hitbox of the player. The next panel displays this in video with a caption: "the red part of the hitbox is what registers your coordinate, the white part is the full size of what can collide with objects". Next panel is black: "L's hitbox was obviously way above the downthermal" (contradicting L's video). He then goes on showing screenshots of L admitting that she knows "how to" cheat, aka knows how to modify game files, which is knowledge that S displayed himself knowing in his video, and would've been necessary on L's part to create her own response video. That said, the screenshots are from June 13th 2023 while the video was posted in late April 2024. The screenshots of L show her sending a run and immediately stating "this run isn't legit btw future readers". Immediately, it's apparent from the speed of some of the boosters that the run is cheated, which doesn't appear in her actual claimed run from a year after that event. Another thing to note is that runs with modified files (the program that modifies these files isn't perfect) have an in-game ghost with 10 seconds added to the final time instead of it acting like normal, which is apparent in some of the illegit runs that L acknowledged, but not in the runs she actually claims as legit. The reasoning behind those illegit runs was so that L could learn how the internal game files work to a deeper extent so that she could make a custom map of her own (which she later did), and also to accurately learn the speed of every in-game booster (since they're all unique) for easier speedrunning in the future (which doesn't count as cheating - most world record holders have done this before to accurately gauge how good certain boosters are). The illegit runs themselves were, in her words, for practicing more difficult strategies with more forgiving boosters, with a side effect of the runs looking really funny, which is why she shared them. That being said though, some of the downdrafts are deleted in those illegit runs, and S, in the next panel of the video, shows a screenshot of her highest point in one of the illegit runs at the same part of the same map that she supposedly passed the height barrier. "in the PS Vita run [illegit run] where they admit to changing downthermal they don't even reach higher than their 56.200 run which they aren't admitting to" he implies that since the downthermal is modified in one of the runs and L is still lower in that run than she is in the run where she's being accused of cheating, that run is obviously cheated. He never tried to find the coordinates of the illegit run, so I as the writer can confirm that even if L didn't remove the downthermal in the illegit run, she wouldn't have hit it anyway since she was lower. The video then changes shot back to the original 56.200 run where he claims that it is "clearly higher" than the admittedly illegit run, although I personally don't see that much of a difference since both runs are looking in a different direction. The height isn't immediately obvious nor proven by S. He then moves on to show a comment from L displaying a likely reason that she's able to seemingly go higher than most other runners in that spot, from a previous record of hers (56.349): "screenshot of their first excuse, months before getting exposed. this excuse is stupid LOL!". The comment: "That section is separated into two down-thermals. The earlier one is really high up (which allows for the out of map in that area) while the next one is quite low. If you get lucky you can release while in the territory of the higher down-thermals and (in theory) clip through the lower down thermal due to the acceleration. I'm not entirely sure about this but I assume this is what's going on.". This comment was made 5 months before the exposal video which was made in April 2024, and reasonably, L didn't have much of a reason to deeply analyse why she was able to achieve those heights. This run is still lower down than her 56.200, slightly (less than a block). S then says "you can't clip through a downthermal LOL" which is just a lie, straight up. Most speedrunners in this game have done this at least once, but they may have a different definition for "clipping" into one. It is very common to get the visual effect of entering a thermal for a split second without having the effect applied or the sound effect audible - and the same applies for downthermals since their programming is the same but inverted. The next panel shows another statement from L, and despite it being from L (confirmed), he provides no evidence of it being sent by L. He only shows the text. Caption: "this is a recent excuse that they made following our video, admitting to going higher than usual and trying to come up with a lie to cover him up. Who would believe this?!?!?!". L's statement: "And by the way, the my best guess for the height on the first Canyon boost is that some thermals tend to be more lenient under high velocities, thusly meaning that my release which gave me tons of downwards momentum might've stopped it from triggering. But I don't know, I haven't had time to actually look into it, and I don't want to make a big announcement about it.". This statement from L was made after the first exposal video to one of her friends, but before she made her response. She admits in her response that all of the genuine research (beyond theories) was done in one day and that she just didn't bother to respond for the 2 weeks following the initial upload of the exposal video, since the exposal was "easy enough" to discredit (in her words). The next panel: "thermals are set to do there job whenever a player's hitbox enters the radius, they aren't lenient depending on speed... pathetic" (taking advantage of L's wording. "Lenient" is clearly not exactly what she meant. You clip through walls while accelerating in this game, and the same likely applies for thermals, hence the effect I described earlier.). Next panel: "and then of course we've got their new response video which is a completely new excuse, obviously all these excuses have been debunked in this video" (although L's official response is the only researched one with a genuine conclusion. She admitted to being unsure about all her other potential reasonings for seemingly going higher than most other runners). Next panel: "he commented on his own video claiming [her friend] passed the downthermal height on PS4" (actually on PS5, which is an unmoddable console for this speedrunning game). Once again the next panel shows a comment with no proof of it being L, but it is L: "Here's a screenshot of [her friend] being higher than the supposed downthermal according to S: (link). [Friend] plays on PS5, which is the console that S wanted me to prove that you could go that high on, so here it is, and I didn't even need to do it myself. Now, [Friend] is about 1/2 to 3/4ths of a block below the height which I showcased as the downthermal's starting height, and yes he's still over a full block higher than the location S showed off. Continuing, the downthermal starts on an integer height coordinate, and so, in spite of me being slightly higher, I'm still not at or above the next block which the downthermal starts in terms of height. With numbers, I'm assuming that [Friend] is within the range of a 220.25-220.5 block Y-level, meanwhile, I'm at a Y-level of about 220.75, as opposed to the 221 in which the thermal _actually_ starts. Don't take those example coordinates completely seriously though, I've not checked them yet myself, and there may be a range of error.". S then shows the screenshot of [her Friend] being above what would be the downthermal if S was correct. S once again recreates the position in Java (inaccurately, since the block faces still don't match. Despite the versions being different, you can still perfectly align positions between these versions. S is just bad at it). Caption: "[Her Friend] is at 218.8 which is below the sky barrier [downthermal]. 219.2 is the no-elytra height when you hit the skybarrier.". He ends it off with a couple black slides: "they also make clearly faked screenshots at the end of the video" (they're not fake, but he deleted the evidence. There are plenty of actual witnesses. It's a bit unusual for him to make this claim when he's supposed to be playing someone else's persona since the exposal videos, in his word, aren't made by him, but he decides to die on the hill of defending himself despite how easy it would theoretically be to prove those screenshots as real. The screenshots include harassment from S's part using alts under L's comment section to coax her into making a response video, but it was caught since the account was blank and only subscribed to channels owned by S. Another comment was made on a fresh account a bit after the first, asking her if she cheated, before devolving into insults and how she'd never be respected or welcomed into the community and that she as a "submissive boy" should accept removal (I assume S thought she was banned rather than her having left on her own terms)). The video ends: "we are now done. this evidence is undeniable." "L/(username) is now a 1000% confirmed CHEATER. Make sure to BLOCK them on ALL platforms!!". As much as I want this to be the end of this absurdly long message, the description of this video has some very notable information, along with L's comment section for her original defense video, where they went back and forth independently and attempted to disprove each other's points. They're not in chronological order, and may have been altered over time. S's video description: L/(username) is modifying their game files exposed 10000000%

This is undeniable evidence. There are no explanations other than cheating to the points we bring up in this video. 

L made a response video, they completely got everything wrong and here we are debunking that and so much more.

L attempted to respond in their comment section but it's obvious that they're lying as they contradict them selves and further disprove their claim of being legit. "The reason I don't pass the downdraft in that PSV run is because going too high usually made me lose time because I wasn't good enough at handling releases to properly benefit from it" This clearly suggests that you needed time to learn how to cheat. Stop exposing yourself lmao you've done it 2 times now. They said my position of [Her Friend's] run was incorrect, it wasn't at all. They just made that claim out of nowhere, possibly because they still don't know how coordinates work in Minecraft (they have learning difficulites; I explained it in baby steps in my video) "[Friend's] run reached 220.3 which with elytra" Watch my video, their correct standing Y level position was 218.8, to find the elytra height, you have to add 1.1, that isn't 220.3 you moron. 

You can't go as high as you did, you'll never reach the skill level required to obtain legit world records, just quit the game. Physcopathic weirdo.

L responded again to this message in the description saying that I didn’t respond to everything they said, that’s because everything they said made no sense, and wasn’t worth bringing up because 99.9% players will know you’re lying.
They try to claim Pixelcrusher’s position was inaccurate, which the X and the Z may be wrong but it’s clear the Y is correct which is what matters here so don’t even try with that.

This guy also goes under like 10 different names, you might know them L/(username)/(old username)/(old username)/(unrelated name)
‪@(channel handle)
reposted cause of audio issues \n\n\n and now L's comments. I'll call Lucia's friend "P". Original, uncut version shown in S's video: It seems a response has already been made. So much for putting time to _research_ in your video before rushing it out...
S made it obvious that he was, for lack of a better term, "yapping" throughout the response when he denied that he had made the exposal. I think it was relatively obvious that he made it, though.
Anyway, if you watched the response, you'd notice misgendering again in the response, discrediting him further.
He's feigning ignorance too, acting as though he doesn't know my pronouns which would make him be equal in intelligence as a 1.5-2 year old if true; he knew my name and even heard my voice to have put in the response video.
In addition, he's also attempting to claim that I've faked the screenshots in my response against S, which obviously, if he wasn't S, he wouldn't care enough to make a claim as harsh as that, especially when completely untrue.
There's not much I can do against that claim, though, but you can already _tell_ that the exposal creator is S if you have any brain cells. Check the channels throughout the [speedrunning] Discord server. That's not to say I don't have witnesses of the events to some of the screenshots, in case he deletes the evidence, though.

Other than the blatant lying in the response, addressing the substance...
Here's a screenshot of P being higher than the supposed downdraft according to S: (link)
P plays on the PS5, which is the console that S wanted me to prove that you could go that high on [in the original deleted response], so here it is, and I didn't even need to do it myself.
Now, P is about 1/2 to 3/4ths of a block below the height which I showcased as the downdraft's starting height, and yet he's still over a full block higher the location that S showed off.
Continuing, the downdraft starts on an integer height coordinate, and so, in spite of me being slightly higher, I'm still not at or above the next block in which the downdraft starts in terms of height.
With numbers, I'm assuming that P is within the range of a 220.25-220.5 block Y-level, meanwhile, I'm at a Y-level of about 220.75, as opposed to the 221 in which the thermal _actually_ starts. Don't take those example coordinates completely seriously though, I've not checked them yet myself, and there may be a range of error.

The response to this was taken down but luckily I have the literal _link_ of the video cached in my browser. How silly of S. (Link)
He basically says that the positioning of the downthermal in his video is accurate and is based on Y-level of the block that he's looking at rather than the Y-level of the player themselves. At the end, he requests me to show off that you can truly go that high on Canyon first boost by doing it on a PS4, which according to him, he's almost sure I can't modify. (Which yeah she's right lol).
Republish it or we know you're making stuff up in an attempt to exclude me in specific.
Here's proof the video existed; indexed by Bing. (Link)
Just search "Aerialyn speedrun cheating accusation," it should be the first result. \n\n Second comment: Another response was re-uploaded so to save time I'll just give the details:
P's run reached 220.3 which with elytra, would be higher than what S supposedly said. The location he gave was wrong again, not a surprise there.
Then he claims I cheated the PS Vita run and admitted it, and then showed a run from _July 2023._
Now that point in time was when I first started getting bored with Glide and tested around with the GRF's [game files] to kinda learn about them before I tried making Constellation [her custom map], and I got some pretty funny runs on _copied instances_ of Cemu and Vita3k [these emulators are permitted]. My original instances were unmodified.
The Vita run was 57.251, obviously faked (without question, I was even honest about it because the runs were just that - not serious).
Anyway when you modify the GRF file, I noticed that the ghost of the player tends to be 10 seconds faster than normal, which apparently is because it counts the time after hitting the finish line up until loading into the Mini-Game lobby. Obviously in my videos I _have ghosts..._ But I'm not gonna sit here and defend my 57 Vita against a claim stemming about a run from quite a while ago - When I was obviously incapable of getting a run that good.
Edit: I misinterpreted that part of the video. The reason I don't pass the downthermal in that PSV run is because going too high usually made me lose time because I wasn't good enough at handling releases to properly benefit from it, but I actually _did_ have the downthermal removed in that run, which is why I noted it to [another speedrunner] when they asked.
Finally - the "excuses" as he calls them were just assumptions I made, but of course, now I know you _can_ go as high as I did (and even quarter of a block higher) on first boost Canyon [the map she was running] without passing the thermal hitbox. ~And notice how he didn't use any footage from actual vanilla Glide.~ [he only used video from Java edition]

And here's proof S made the video: (4 links to screenshots that show S being involved in the creation process of the video. In the modern day, he claims that he was just "helping" the person who "actually" made it, although those initially screenshotted messages are now deleted.) Next comment: He unlisted the response yet again... I saved the video should I need to re-upload it as evidence against S.
Can we also appreciate that he's trying to boost the amount of likes the video has with alts? He already has 5 likes [the video had 2 when L's original response was made, and she pointed out the low like count in her video as a joke], which are obviously not from other people because the view count didn't rise any more than like 20 views xD \n\n Next comment: The video is back, apparently it was enough to unlist and then delete a video with a half an hour delay because of "audio issues". \n\n Next comment: Notice how S edited the description to attack me and yet still didn't address some of the things I commented here... Almost like he knows I'm bringing up good evidence and he can't be asked to actually fabricate a response.
Other than that, he continues to defend his incorrect positioning with showing off P's location, obviously some of the frame was cut off in his recreation of his location, which means that it's inaccurate. [The framing of S's recreated location doesn't accurately match P's screenshot]
He also tries to say that I contradicted myself again by bringing up a thing that I mentioned, and then drawing a absolutely unrelated conclusion to it, which can only lead you to believe that he's a paranoid schizophrenic. 
Projecting much? \n\n After this point, S made a response again, using some more advanced mods in the correct version of the game. He claims the footage was given to him by someone else but never reveals who (most likely the admin friend if he's being honest). The video shows the character in the same X and Z coordinates as L but in creative mode, allowing them to slowly increase their elytra height until they get caught by the downthermal, which is still lower than L's position. It should be noted that he gave instructions on how to mimic this behaviour (very poorly) and actually trying this in game leads to misalignment pretty quickly, implying that the position shown in the video isn't as trustable. He also uses the sound effect of the thermal activating as a cue, which likely has a slight delay anyway. He does the same for P's location, but likely even more inaccurately since he isn't looking straight down and his position is more likely to be misaligned quicker. The text on screen asks viewers to listen for the sound cue, but there is none before the video cuts off. The character seemingly passes way above where P was, theoretically passing the thermal barrier without being affected. Whether or not S removed the downthermal for that clip is uncertain. Next comment from L: This [the footage] makes me wonder how maxed my run actually is but then again who's to say he didn't modify the game files to make the downthermal lower for that clip.
Dunno how to replicate that behaviour but I got the height in a run so... 🤷‍♀️ It's probably at the next integer block up.

Also, I didn't even need to convince P about anything - He just wants a fight to console 56. If he wants that I'll have fun, I'll go against him for that final stretch.

It's kinda crazy you're still at it though because I know you know it's a legit run and I'm tired of proving my legitimacy to a wall - You said you were finished.

If you're gonna go bring trolls to harass me [2 of his friends] for hours in public Discord servers why should people side with you anyway? This isn't even related to the accusations anymore - This is just something personally wrong with you, S. You're not leaving a good example of someone who should be listened to and you never come off as genuine. \n\n After this, S and another party who I'll call J, started talking about how L's comment section was censored. J and L were already on bad terms before this, so here's L's comment: I'm not deleting comments, J and S. I literally have you blocked on YouTube. Your comments instantly get removed for exact that reason. My channel is meant to be a lighthearted place - the fact I even made this video to address everything was quite a jump for me in comparison to how my channel was meant to go.
My jump in skill can be attributed to one thing - poor PS4 input recognition. I easily got my 1:02 Canyon PS3 back in that era even with a horrendous run, and was even able to do a new strat in it, and yet on PS4, I struggled immensely to finish those same runs, because my PS4 is messed up.
I had to factory reset that thing twice because files kept corrupting on it, my console is just dying at this point. \n\n L's PlayStation has ~400ms of input delay and really damaged controllers. She played on PS4 before moving to an emulator and getting a really quick jump in skill. She was always quick in improving but people seem to gloss over it. People are only suspicious because the console she moved to was an emulator, with the capability to cheat. Here's the description of S's exposal with the in-game testing: L/(username} has been proven cheating again, this time not by Minecraft Glide Exposing. 

The last videos’s evidence were enough, but this time, this is some literally undeniable evidence as there is no other explanation for this as it’s tested in-game. Elimination from the community.

This guy also goes under like 10 different names, you might know them as L/(username)/(old username)/(old username)/(unrelated name)
‪@(channel handle) \n\n After this, an anti-exposal was made by one of L's friends (A) that details a lot of info mentioned here along with a run of hers that seemingly matches L's height in her accused run, but on a vanilla console of the same type (Wii U, matching L's run being from Cemu). A disproves the hitbox argument about the hitbox moving higher when looking down, corrects the position to be 220.4 instead of 220.3, shows that you can clip through downthermals, acts as a witness to the screenshots of S that were claimed to be fake, confirms that the uploader is S, confirms the misgendering as intentional, explains that any top runner could have a rare run that under S's rule, could be exposed while being legit, and shows several clips from a vanilla console that prove S got the position of the downthermal wrong several times, including a run that near-matches L to the same integer value. S's final response (to A this time) claims that most of the comments are irrelevant and calls A stupid, also saying that "because the in-game footage we were given is completely undeniable" the exposal is exempt from disproval. S also says that the old videos are invalid under the existence of the new video (since new evidence came out) despite keeping them up and not including all the context in the third video. He admits that "most points from previous videos still stand, the only points that don't are the points disproven by our latest video". S denies the clips of A reaching L's height saying that since the downthermal activated, it's invalid. A's argument for this was that the downthermal activated _after_ reaching L's position, meaning that it is located above where she was. S says: "if you have good momentum, you can easily go above a downthermal (try it got yourself) - but it will still activate, so this point makes no sense and seems rushed." this is true, downthermals gradually push the player down, but A's argument still stands since it only activated after reaching L's position rather than before or while. The final clip in the video shows A reaching approximately the same integer Y level as L without activating the downthermal too, so scrutiny of these previous clips are invalidated. S also jokes in the video pointing out A's gendering "his", saying "stop assuming my gender !!!! 111!" (which doesn't make sense if the channel is owned by multiple people, but since we know that it's S, their pronouns are known). S claims that the footage at the end of A's video is invalid because she doesn't reach the same height as L, and that it's "just an illusion from her looking higher up" (paraphrased). Even taking in A's angle into account, it still looks to be near L's height. S provides a recreated position, but he never compares it with A's position, only opting to look down from the recreated position and compare it to L's run, where it is still 1-1.5 blocks lower. This isn't trustworthy due to the lack of comparison to A's clip and S's history of getting coordinates wrong in the past. The next panel: "wouldn't reccomend supporting a cheater. if you actually payed good attention to our videos you would know that your friend is cheating and has been lying to you the whole time.". Next panel: "these videos are satire, as you can tell and are mostly for entertainment purposes. - these were never meant to be taken seriously. We expected L to turn legit after the first but instead they started lying to people, even their friends so that's why we carried on.". It's worth noting that L is 16 and P is 12, and that S at one point tried to raise awareness to P that they were being manipulated based on a surfacing screenshot of L explaining how she achieved the height to P. This was one of the theories and not the final verdicts, and one of those messages was shown in the second video, although it the messages don't seem to be manipulation and were never shown in the exposal videos despite their appearance in the originally deleted second exposal video. The video ends with S claiming that the height will "NEVER" be replicated LEGIT without activating the downthermal and that you can't deny undeniable evidence. The second last panel: "A is now a CONFIRMED LIAR Make sure to block her on ALL platforms!!! (jk it's just a couple mistakes)". The last panel: "just to clarify, any older videos that have incorrect evidence that was disproven by our latest was not intentional, we believed at the time it was correct information and strong enough evidence. We never intentionally did things wrong.". The video description: L/(username) has been proven cheating again, this time not by Minecraft Glide Exposing, but by their friend A.

You can't deny this evidence, and when you try, you fail.

This guy also goes under like 10 different names, you might know them as L/more/usernames/im/tired of filling these in \n\n That's all of the (public) story.
