	This accusation is entirely fabricated.		This accusation is entirely fabricated. The myth started when [[DekuFullCowling]], an EarthMC podcaster who runs the [[Global Chat Podcast]] made up the message out "anger" in a direct message to [[Kuvvii]]. Kuvvii knowing it was an obvious hoax, sent it to [[0xBit]] who immediately perm banned [[DekuFullCowling]] for the statement. He would later be unbanned after an apology to 0xBit in a private call where he expressed he did it out of anger about being kicked off the staff team. Deku was removed from the staff team after he was clipped by [[Kuvvii]] saying some generally untasteful and disgusting things in a public voice chat with [[Ellied64]].

			At a later date, [[Kuvvii]] would also be perm-banned from EarthPol after various private affairs were exposed publicly. During this ban, Kuvvii would reitirate the baseless claims of Deku saying, "Maybe Deku was right about 0xBit and Ellie" just to upset 0xBit.

	'''0xBit Derangement Syndrome''' (abbreviated '''ODS''') is a satirical term used within the EarthPol and broader Minecraft geopolitical community to describe a pattern of exaggerated hostility, conspiratorial thinking, or irrational fixation centered around the player and administrator [[0xBit]]. Individuals affected by ODS often develop extreme negative beliefs about 0xBit after receiving punishments for rule violations, then spread these beliefs to others as if they were factual.

			=== Claim: 0xBit supports RomanDiCario ===

			Another ODS-driven claim suggests that 0xBit provides special treatment or "does anything for" RomanDiCario. This claim is usually paired with emotional reactions to individual bans or disciplinary actions, such as the "holy 1984" Discord message screenshot.

			'''Facts:'''

			* No evidence exists showing preferential treatment being given to RomanDiCario.
			* The gold Roman received was confirmed to be from Bolshebricks’ personal balance, accumulated legitimately during the Hokkaido era — not spawned or created by staff.
			* Roman provided critical evidence confirming that Dandire, not 0xBit, was the individual spawning TNT carts and distributing illegal gold.
			* Investigating player reports and acting on evidence is not favoritism; it is standard administrative responsibility.

			The Discord message "0xBit doing anything for Roman at this point" appears only after several players were banned for:

			* 1.9 – Targeted harassment
			* 1.5 – Advertising
			* Leaking staff chat
			* Coordinated cross-platform harassment

			These punishments were issued based on logs and ticket evidence — not because of Roman.

			The bans shown in the screenshot were for explicit rule violations, not political alignment. This fits a typical ODS pattern:

			1. A group receives punishments for clear violations.
			2. Instead of acknowledging wrongdoing, they redefine the enforcement as "corruption" or "favoritism."
			3. The narrative spreads socially as a coping mechanism to justify their actions.

			The false belief that 0xBit "supports Roman" collapses immediately when compared to the evidence:

			* Every disciplinary action was individually reviewed.
			* No spawned items were involved.
			* The only confirmed cheater was Dandire, whose actions were caught and documented in CoreProtect logs.
			* Roman’s only involvement was reporting abnormal TNT behavior — which any player may do.

			As with other ODS claims, this narrative persists not because of evidence, but because it provides a convenient explanation for players unwilling to accept responsibility for their own behavior.

			=== Claim: 0xBit mass-banned the Nations of Sicily and America ===

			This claim is a recurring ODS talking point and is factually incorrect.

			'''Facts:'''

			* No mass-ban was issued against either nation.
			* Every ban during the incident was applied individually and only after reviewing CoreProtect evidence, including:
			** [[File:DandireCheat1.png\|200px]] — Dandire dropping a yellow shulker directly to Kippenwortel
			** [[File:DandireCheat2.png\|200px]] — Kippenwortel removing hundreds of gold blocks from the illegal stash
			** [[File:DandireCheat3.png\|200px]] — ProbablyVano removing large quantities of raw gold blocks

			* Players from Sicily and America were banned only when direct, verifiable involvement in the duping scheme was confirmed.
			* Multiple Sicilian members were later banned from Discord for sustained harassment, not from the Minecraft server itself.
