The Doxxing of Rory was an incident taking place in the Photo Friends Discord between the newly joined Biggers, the owner Steve, and his potentially underaged fan, Rory.
Background and Incident
The Photo Friends Discord, while originally on paper a community for the artistic photographic works of Steven "Cvatik" Gindler, had during and after the second season of Fishtank become more of a friend server for fans of his and the show, as well as former "fish" such as Jon and the recently ousted Jimmy. Steve had leveraged his internet presence to coerce these contestants to come to his house in New Jersey so he could do photo shoots of them, usually for free, as a way to farm clout. With this arrangement, his Discord also attracted a slew of the contestants simps, most notably and most recently Jimmies fans, who tended to be more or less insane.
The original incident occurred on the night of February 3rd, 2024 when one of the new joins, Rory, joined a large VC call with Steve and many of the other Photo Friends. Immediately, she became rather flirty with Steve, who responded in kind. She also flirted with Enrico, who for some reason, was wearing a maids outfit (believed though to be at the behest of Steve). Taylor, playing Skyrim and very annoyed by the pick-me behaviours on display, muted for much of the night, missing any further context.
However, over the next few days Rory and Steve became closer, eventually taking their conversations into private DM's and Snapchat.
Grace and Taylor's Investigation
Taylor, always suspicious and paranoid, especially of insane foids, immediately began to suspect something was off about Rory, especially when she began talking about not being able to use Venmo, insisting on Cashapp. After researching, Taylor realized the common thread was that Venmo had an age limit of 17 while Cashapp did not. On the 7th, after realizing this, Taylor revealed it both to Steve and to Grace, Steve's defacto community manager. Steve originally did not believe it, choosing to ere on the side of caution.
For several hours, Taylor and Grace together combed through Rory's socials, eventually finding her TikTok and revealing that not only was she not 18, she might have been as young as 15. Steve was still reluctant, reaching out to Rory to see if it was true. Rory revealed that while she wasnt 18, she was 17. Steve fought to keep from banning her, but severe backlash from almost everyone came at him, forcing his hand.
Aftermath
Despite banning her, it was rumoured that Steve still kept in contact with Rory, awaiting the alleged August birthday where she would turn 18. This did little to quell the "nonce" allegations against Steve, and formed one of the first bricks in what would become a strong resentment of Steve from the Biggers and even his own members.
