The 13 August Bakaism entry
From Wikinfo
The 13 August Bakaism entry, originally devoted to making fun of Rotaru once again by Coyotee and published by Reactive, has turned into a strong debate on the history and actual behinds of the contemporary Romanian anime sites and their owners.

Content
The original content was the posting a conversation between Hurricane Rotaru and the administrator of Romania's Animax forum, which was meant to ironies and make fun of Rotaru. The conversation is started by Rotaru, asking about the identity of such administrator, if he is for instance TDM, which he denies. Rotaru then asks technical questions about Animax, especially of an affiliation, which he's obviously denied, as the admin says there are no affiliations with the bigger sites, so there is no way he could affiliate with his lower-domain one. At almost the end, Rotaru specifically asks the user not to tell anyone about this discussion. This part is bolded by Reactive for probably the strangely-enough reason to emphasize the Rotaru's existence.
Initial comments
The initial comments were relative on topic, with Rotaru, some his friends appearing here and there to defend him. They claimed he knows most of the administrators from the Romanian anime forums, which gave many reasons for some of those who knew themselves that to deny and to explain their rather absurd relation with him. The conversation however took a strange turn when Rainman, while trying to explain that the plot was set up by people close to Reactive and that there is no actual "Animax Admin", opened a whole can of worms.
Animax Admin comments
The discussions about the true nature of Animax's admin started by Rainman, was quickly replied at by Coyotee himself, claiming no association with the "Animax Admin". This lead to the reply of Iusty, claiming that "Coyotee had nothing better to do that to demean himself so much". After a few posts between a certain Ruth and ady_x about Rotaru, an old member of Anime-Club, Lumpy, posted to, what some considered, protect Coyotee by claiming Alexander was almost banned on Animax for posting a trailer to the A-Camp event by the Admin, which by this theory he concluded it is not Coyotee. This comment was followed by Iusty saying that, as a coorganiser of A-Camp, which "incidentally" got a free commercial on Animax, he was paying the price for such commercial and was instigated by Coyotee, calling the actions "mafia-like". The appearance of Lumpy was also strange in the way that Coyotee himself didn't come to refute this information (again) until much later. Some considered their action as an example of the Anime Club Borg mentality.
Censorship
On August 19, 2008 a censoring accusation was made, from a 4chan-like language user that made a motivator for this occasion. This depicts the "before and after" situation, with his post from the second. The post, although written in a jovial mode, was detrimental for Coyotee's image. The comment posted with it was Picture or it didn't happen, a 4chan meme on itself.
As of now, there has been no outside count of how many other comments were censored in any way. Some suspect there are more that "suddenly vanished" like the other one.
