Quasar Store has never been sanctioned by any of the three. There is no Cfx.re ruling, no Rockstar action, no Tebex removal. We have continued selling, updating and supporting throughout, and anyone can verify that in about thirty seconds.

That is not a minor detail. That is the whole case. For a year it was publicly maintained that Quasar Store was a store built on stolen code, and in that year not one of the three bodies that could have determined this determined anything of the sort. What existed instead was a private group that decided to act as though it held that authority, without holding it.

The specific accusation, and what backed it#

Let us deal with the actual charge rather than a vague sense of wrongdoing, because a concrete accusation was made in writing.

In July 2026, a Warden staff member contacted one of our partners directly and stated the reason for our blacklisting: that Quasar had openly posted in his own Discord admitting to stealing code from other creators, putting it into his scripts and profiting from it without permission.

That admission has never been produced. Not to that partner, not to us, not to any of the creators who asked for it, and not to any platform with the authority to act on it. What was offered instead, repeatedly, was a link to an anonymous website with no named authors, no right of reply and no ruling behind it.

The same message closed with a 48-hour deadline to end the partnership with us, or be blacklisted too.

The partner in question, SynzLabs, refused and published their reply. Their position was straightforward: a Discord bot and an anonymous website do not get to define theft, Cfx.re does, and Quasar remains an active store on that platform. They also pointed out something worth keeping in mind throughout this article, which is that the people applying the pressure operate a competing store of their own.

Blacklisted for advertising a store#

This is where the system stops being about conduct at all.

Warden's own blacklist entries were posted publicly by their staff. Several stores appear in the same batch, and the published reason next to their names is not leaking, not cheating, not fraud, not malware, not stolen code. It reads, word for word, "Advertising Quasar Store."

Once the criterion for flagging someone stops being what they did and becomes who they work with, this is no longer community protection. It is something else.

In their own words: the objective was Quasar's income#

Everything above documents a pattern. This section explains what it was for.

A recording made by a former Warden staff member captures a conversation about the blacklisting of Quasar Store and its customers. It runs fifty seconds. We are publishing it unedited, because a short cut can always be dismissed as taken out of context and a complete recording cannot.

On why the store itself was listed:

"And as for the store, the store was blacklisted because that way it hurts his income."

On why the users — the customers, the people who had done nothing — were listed:

"The only reason why we blacklisted the users this time is because, you know, it will cripple Quasar's income."

And on what the bans were actually for:

"Pretty much people will get blacklisted and then we can inform them what he's doing. (…) Say for example, I'm a new person to the CFX scene, I've made a server, I buy a script from Quasar and then I get blacklisted. You know, we'll educate and say, well, this is why they're — you shouldn't buy. (…) And we don't want people buying from him."

Read that against the public version of the same events. Publicly, this was framed as protecting the community from a creator who steals code. A blacklist as a safety measure. A bot as a shield.

What is described here is a different thing entirely. The store is listed to reduce its revenue. The customers are listed to reduce it further. And the ban itself is not the end of the process — it is the beginning of one. It creates a captive audience of people who have just lost access to their communities and want it back, who then arrive to be "educated" on why they should not buy from us.

That is not enforcement. Enforcement has an endpoint: a ruling, a removal, a takedown. This has a funnel.

And it explains the single strangest fact of the past year, the one we could never account for. If you sincerely believe a store is selling stolen code, the routes available to you are obvious and effective. Report it to Cfx.re. Report it to Tebex. File a DMCA. Those routes exist, they are used constantly in this ecosystem, and they end businesses. In a year, none of them was taken against us — despite the claim of holding conclusive proof.

What was chosen instead was a method that damages a competitor's revenue without ever requiring the proof to be tested by anyone with the authority to test it.

We spent a year being told this was about ethics. Here it is being described, by the people running it, as being about income.

The part that hurt people who had nothing to do with any of it#

The blacklist itself was never the real damage. The bot was.

Warden operated with administrator permissions across thousands of community servers. When it detected a user present in a flagged server, it removed or banned them automatically from every other server it was in. The user received a direct message telling them they had been sanctioned for being, or having been, associated with a flagged server. To have any hope of getting back into communities they had been part of for years, they had to go to that group's own Discord and ask.

Think about what that meant in practice. People who bought scripts, played roleplay or passed through a Discord once, a long time ago, suddenly lost access to the communities where their friends and their characters were. No warning. No individual review. Nothing they had actually done.

The witness who started out suspicious of us#

If this story rested only on our word, you would be right not to give it. We are an interested party. So the most important piece of this article is not one we wrote.

In April 2026, TopV.gg published an investigation by its founder, Ippo, documenting how this network operated. It is an extensive file, with verified screenshots and SHA-256 hashes for each exhibit, and ten cross-referenced testimonies from different creators — Quasar Store, Legends Dev, Novar Labs, MenaAk47, Padintong, Jota Dev, Buty Shop, Clefas, Mamba Studios and Goodleaf — all describing the same sequence: private pressure, then public accusation, then blacklisting by association.

We want to be honest about what that investigation is and is not. Ippo is not a neutral observer; he ended up blacklisted himself for refusing to remove us from his platform, which makes him an affected party. But how his story started is exactly what makes it hard to dismiss.

Ippo did not know us. When he was first contacted and told to remove Quasar from TopV, his reaction was not to defend us. It was to hide our listing while he looked into it. The message that started it told him we steal code and lie, and pointed him to the anonymous site.

He then did the thing almost nobody did in that entire year, which was go to the source and ask for something concrete. What he got back, by his account, was the same anonymous link, insistence that it was enough, and growing pressure to comply without asking questions. When he restored our listing, he was told he clearly did not care, asked to remove the sender from his platform, and told others would be advised against using it.

In a separate exchange, when Ippo asked directly about the campaign against TopV, the reply included a line about having tried to find company information on him, followed by asking whether his real first name was Damien. Nothing in that message is an explicit threat. It did not need to be.

On 22 March 2026, Ippo received an email from an address using the alias "Lil Phantom." It urges him to reconsider his partnership with us, tells him that essentially every creator large and small had already turned on Quasar for concrete reasons, and directs him to the code comparisons published on Creator Justice and to videos on 5M Network. It closes by asking him not to take sides, but simply to look at the evidence.

It is signed: "A concerned community member of FiveM."

That signature is the reason we are publishing it.

TopV traced the address to a Discord profile identifying the same person as an administrator of TSS, an administrator of 5M Network, and a developer at TinySprite Studios. And the footer of 5M Network — the blacklist site the email points to — credits its design to TSS and its funding to Wasabi Scripts.

So the message arrives as a disinterested member of the community, asking a platform owner to look objectively at independent evidence, and the independent evidence it cites sits on a site the sender helped build, funded by the party running the public campaign.

That is the mechanism in one page. A blacklist carries weight because it looks like an outside verdict, and a plea to "just look at the evidence" carries weight because it appears to come from a bystander. When the private appeal, the site it cites and the money behind it all trace back to the same small circle — one of them operating a competing store — the appearance of independent consensus is the product, not a description of reality.

We are not publishing this to attack the sender. We are publishing it because for a year, people were told to check the evidence for themselves, and this is what checking it actually leads to.

We agreed to put the evidence in public. They refused#

In March 2026, TopV proposed something that would have settled this cleanly: a public, open, neutral space on their platform where both sides would lay out their evidence side by side and let the community judge for itself. No interested moderators. No blacklists. No bots. Just the two versions and what each could show.

Quasar Store accepted immediately.

The other side refused outright. By Ippo's account, with mockery, another redirect to the anonymous site, and the message that they had nothing to publish anywhere else because their version was already the truth.

There is not much to add to that. Anyone who holds proof that someone is a thief, and is offered a neutral public stage to show it, shows it. Anyone who holds that proof and instead prefers an anonymous site with no named authors, no right of reply and a bot that removes people who disagree, is doing something other than proving a case.

Discord's response, and Warden's own announcement#

At that point we stopped arguing on forums and did what we should have done sooner, which was file a formal, documented report with Discord about how the application operated.

Discord Developer Compliance replied that it had reviewed the evidence we submitted, that there were sufficient grounds to consider the reported application in violation of its Terms and Policies, and that it would take appropriate action. We are publishing that response in full.

We want to be precise here, because precision is exactly what has been missing all year and we are not going to answer imprecision with more of it. Discord has issued no public statement on this matter, and we cannot speak on their behalf. There is no court ruling. What exists is an official platform response to a documented report, and we are showing it exactly as we received it.

What happened next did not come from us either. On 26 August 2026, Warden announced in its own server that the bot was down until further notice. On 31 August, its staff explained that the application was no longer active on Discord and that they had lost direct access to it, which they attributed to false allegations and a mass reporting campaign.

We are publishing their statement alongside ours deliberately, including the part that does not suit us. In that same message they state that all services behind the bot remain fully functional and that their database is intact and still holds everything it held before.

So we are not going to tell you the story is over, or that your data is gone, because the people who hold it have said in writing that it is not. What we can tell you is that what we spent a year reporting was not community drama or a losing vendor throwing a tantrum. It was something the platform itself considered serious enough to review and act on.

If you left because of this, come back#

Direct and without conditions.

If you stopped buying from Quasar Store, left our Discord, pulled a partnership, or simply hid the fact that you used our resources because you did not want to risk an automatic ban or end up on a list, you are welcome back whenever you want.

There is no resentment and no explaining to do. We understand perfectly why people stepped away, because stepping away was the sensible thing to do at the time. If you ran a server with players depending on you, the decision was not even fully yours. We never read it as betrayal and we are not going to start now.

Your licences are still yours, your support is still active, and our Discord is open. If you lost access, have a problem with an old purchase, or do not know what state your account is in, message us and we will sort it out without questions.

What we are not asking for#

This is not a courtesy line, and we mean it.

We are not asking for harassment. No raids, no message campaigns, no personal attacks, no doxxing — not against developers, not against staff, not against users, not against anyone connected to this. The evidence in this article is published to document a pattern, not to point anyone at a person.

And if you installed that bot on your server believing you were protecting your community, you are not the villain here. A great many people did exactly that, for entirely reasonable motives. The problem was never wanting to protect your server. The problem was who decided, on what basis, and with nobody able to audit it.

We have spent a year on the receiving end of an organised campaign. We know exactly what it feels like. It would be absurd to come out of it by becoming the same thing.

If you want to do something, do it through the proper channels: review which applications have access to your server, check your authorised applications in your account settings, and if you believe your data was handled improperly, use Discord's official support and reporting channels. Reports should be filed individually, based on the information you personally have.

Going forward#

With this chapter closed, our position is simple. Any creator, developer or group that knowingly continues to support, promote or collaborate with practices of this kind will no longer have Quasar Store compatibility, collaborations or support.

It is worth qualifying, because it is easily misread. This is not about punishing anyone for holding a different opinion. Anyone is free to think whatever they like about us, our scripts or how we work, and criticism of the product is legitimate and always has been — a fair amount of it has made us better. It is about where the line sits, and the line sits at actively taking part in organised campaigns that cause real harm to people who had nothing to do with any of it.

Frequently asked questions#

Has Quasar Store ever been sanctioned by Cfx.re, Rockstar or Tebex? No. None of those three has ever issued a ruling against Quasar Store, and we continue to operate normally on Tebex. They are the only bodies with real authority in this ecosystem, and none of them has found any of what was publicly claimed this year.

Did Discord declare Warden illegal? Discord Developer Compliance told us, after reviewing the evidence we submitted, that there were sufficient grounds to act against the reported application for violating its Terms and Policies. There is no public Discord statement and no court ruling, and we are not going to present it as though there were. The response is published above for you to read yourself.

Is Warden gone for good? We do not know, and neither does anyone else outside that team. Their own announcement says they are working to recover the application and that their backend services and database remain intact. Treat anything beyond that as speculation.

I was automatically banned from servers for being in a Discord. What can I do? You can review and revoke application access to your account under User Settings, in Authorized Apps. If you run a server, review active integrations in your server settings. If you believe your data was collected or handled improperly, use Discord's official support and reporting channels.

I stopped buying from Quasar because of this. Can I come back? Yes, unconditionally and without explanation. Your licences are still yours and support is still available.

Were my scripts affected? No. Our resources kept working, updating and receiving support normally throughout, with ESX, QBCore and QBox compatibility.

Where can I check the evidence myself? In the TopV.gg investigation, which includes the full file with verification hashes and ten cross-referenced creator testimonies.

Closing#

It has been an exhausting year, and we are not going to pretend otherwise. But the accusations are not what we will remember most about it.

It is the people who stayed. Customers who kept buying when it was inconvenient. Partners who said no when they were asked to drop us, knowing exactly what it would cost them, and who then paid that cost. Creators who asked for evidence before joining in, who turned out to be few and very valuable. Users who kept coming back to our Discord even when there was a price attached.

Thank you. Without exaggeration: that is what has held this project together over the past year.

We move forward.
