You have no idea how fast he has been improving. I'd bet money he breaks the NR in his next comp.

finish NR is EZ even I have a better result then that ( not a big difference
) and kim( who I assume is faster than me ) can easily beat it

The forum hivemind has realised (or at least re-realised) that, pretty unsurprisingly, it's easy to fake a 3x3 solve. Therefore everyone else has decided that (out of jealousy, cynicism, whatever else idk) people aren't allowed to lay claim to a lucky average without being shot down as 'fake'.
Afaik, Kim's never tried to pull anything like this in the past - why shouldn't we trust him? I mean, if someone has a history of fake solves then I could understand, but why him? Because the possible actions of other cubers recently have cast a bad light over the community? It all seems ridiculous to me...
By the way, awesome average Kim. At this rate it won't be too long before you can get this average on a non-ridiculous set of scrambles.

>gets lucky 5 times in a row, avg goes down by ~33%
ok

Well, if there's really no proof of it aside from his word alone, and the most recent comp shows that he normally gets nowhere near what he said, you can understand why I'd be very skeptical of a sudden ~33% improvement.
It'd be easier to get away with it as a "trusted member of the community".

I don't think sir waffle has ever posted fake solves but to allot of people her solve looked fake. and also she had a vid wich makes in relation to the solves of kim it is very harder to fake a solve. and just don't say look at the scrambles he might just have collected some EZ scrambles and place random times behind them.

Dude, look, just because one person posts a fake solve doesn't mean EVERYONE else is suddenly gonna start posting fake solves.

Im not gonna believe Kim. Cos I hate him for improving so fast and being so much ahead of me. I'm still trying to get another sub10 ao5, and closest ive been to is 10.5ish. Screw him.

I didn't said that. what I want to point out is kim might be faking for the same reason as you. and the times just seem unrealistic I know he improves allot and really fast but this is just over the top.

They're falling back on the old "you're just jealous!" excuse since they've got nothing in their favor. A video upload or even a photograph would make it believable..

He probably meant 6.53. It's unlikely he had an Ao5 faster than his PB single.
I think this looks too good to be legit. I would've said that even without what's been happening recently. Well maybe I wouldn't have said it, but I certainly would've thought it.
An accomplishment, as this is the accomplishment thread: I did a PLL time attack. Last time I tried one I got half way through and then realised I didn't know G perms. Time was 1:00.01

Seriously, you people won't trust anyone, will you?
It's really irritating to see all this happening. It's one thing to say 'well anyone can fake a solve' but it takes a few more brain cells to realise that posting fake solves is a sure-fire way to create this unnecessary tension in the community, guarantee a bad reputation for yourself, and a lack of trust in any of your further accomplishments. I think in saying all of this you're insulting the intelligence of Kim, and everyone else who regularly posts genuine accomplishments regularly in this thread.
Why? Chris and Tim have shown between them in the past couple of days that both of these things can be faked pretty convincingly...

Your ignorance astounds me.
Comparing official pbs with comp pbs is more often than not a useless exercise. 11.06 is by no means a good average for Kim (sorry, but I'm sure he agrees) so to compare that with his now pb average months after his 11.06 - especially as he is known for is phenomenal progress - is stupid.
