A paradox in where a Content Creators success and community meets detriment. Where you use a certain audience for short-term growth to then be turned into stress, sadness, loneliness, and drama. Through the relations of Stan Culture and encouragement of it, it creates a problematic and destructive cycle that not even the content creator can stop. It is only through fading into inevitable irrelevance that this can be halted, or leads to the CC being completely forgotten.
"That content creator has put themselves into a Dream Paradox"
"They should have really been careful with their fans, instead they are now in a Dream Paradox"

A vast and conflicting concept, The Riley Paradox was first observed forming from the mind of the person it is named after, Riley. The Riley Paradox is not an external object, however it is a transcended mindset when all mental fragments combine, where one would usually struggle with the grating of sadness across the soul, there is a concentrated core of all emotion, memories and logic into an ever flowing ball, meaning that any force will be dissipated but also experienced. To obtain the Riley Paradox, one must go through their darkest days, emerge victorious and experience prolonged exposure to multiple instances of Lewdity among other unexplainable internal events. There are multiple categories for the Riley Paradox, each named in "Versions" eg. V1, V2 and V3. Each version encompasses combined fragments, for example, the desire for Monster Girls.
The Riley Paradox is nothing easily explained, but this is a rough basic rundown on it.
