This profile has no perception score yet. The previous system generated one from the wording of each event, which read subject matter as conduct: documenting a scam, a death or an assault scored like committing one. That model was withdrawn. During the read-only beta, dated events remain visible without pretending their wording measures audience reaction.

The dated events below are documented and sourced, but nobody has researched how audiences actually reacted to them. Creators On Record will not put a number on that until the research exists, so this record shows what happened and stops there.
