SCANDAL! IN THE U.S.A

Three months into the new year, and a whopping six months into Joseph (Imustbemad's) term as the head moderator, scandal has officially erupted. Over the past few days, a situation of the utmost peculiarity has come to light, and could threaten to permanently tarnish the otherwise (relatively) spotless reputation of Imustbemad's tenure.
During Kion's absence from the server, the USA maintained continued use of his happy ghast, who for the sake of this article will be henceforth referred to as Fent Ghast. This arrangement presumably continued smoothly until February 28th, 2026, when Fent Ghast had apparently vanished. In what could only be described as an act of panic over the presumed death of Fent Ghast, It is alleged that Joseph spawned in another happy ghast in its stead, and then lied about having found it somewhere random. Callum corroborated with him on this story.
There are several factors which point towards this potentially being the case. Firstly, It had a nametag; The Fent Ghast had been renamed “Tweaker”, which wouldn’t be unusual if it wasn’t for the fact that they hadn’t bothered to name it for the months they’ve had the ghast prior. Additionally, there was a lack of particle effects on the phony ghast. This factor is crucial, as most of Kiddorox's creations have these effects, including the original Fent Ghast. There's also the fact that Kiddorox himself, (The individual who spawned the original true and honest Fent Ghast), Testified that he hadn't spawned in a new one. Kion himself had testified that Tweaker wasn't as fast as Fent Ghast, and that it "didn't handle right." Though Joseph apparently doesn't have /summon permissions, he does have the ability to edit attributes, which would likely explain why Tweaker didn't have potion effects. Lastly, however, and the most important fact, is that Fent Ghast is still alive.
On top of all of that information, It is also reported that Callum was planning on threatening Kion, claiming squatter's rights over Fent Ghast. Callum is alleged to have stated that he would "slime him out" if he tried to take it back. It is now that we must face a potentially troubling fact. If one is to come to any conclusion, the one that they will almost certainly come to, is that Callum and Joseph attempted to swindle Kion, replacing his happy ghast and keeping it for themselves.
On top of their lie, there was another happy ghast that did actually succumb to a game breaking glitch, namely Kaleidico's "Corvette," which was lost after a poorly timed server rollback. No such offer to replace the ghast was made, because it seems that Joseph was only interested in cheating a new ghast into the game to make sure that he was able to benefit himself and his friends. Considering for just how long Joseph has already been moderator, the prospects of other, undiscovered instances of corruption become realer and realer. If he was attempting to abuse his admin privileges to screw over a fellow player on the server, what else is he willing to do? How deep does this dishonesty run, and to what extent?
Realmplex is in a somewhat tumultuous period, with moderator elections rapidly approaching and the potential for the server to exchange hosts. Ada, another USA member is currently the prime candidate to host the server. For how much these individuals talk down on the server, they seem particularly interested in holding and abusing the power that they gain here. Could this incident be a warning as to other avenues of corruption that may happen of Ada hosts the server?
You decide.
