On the opposite hand, I know how a lot of folks act here and from my interactions with similar people, this is one of those situations where there just wasn't thought put into how it would look. And tbh I think it's not the end of the world on this as long as it's done for the presumed purposes. Ive seen scenes where 6 different people were ghosting one dorm at a moment, so Teal just did it on a larger level.


That said, I expect it not to happen again now that it's been clarified.


Mild yes support

Hello, Jayda's player here. The blackmail thing was after a cursory browse through Discord's search feature and discovering replies to users regarding the recent change to ghosteyes/ears privacy. After the mention of someone being banned for botting, subsequent messages shifted towards the potential for blackmail, one user even misunderstanding the conversation and outright accusing the unnamed banned individual for using a bot to collect logs for blackmail. This is the info I brought to Aquajazz.

tl;dr the conversation we had had no bearing here, I just looked through discord and saw people screaming blackmail

That's fair, I had thought you had passed on what I had mentioned to you. I retract my first comment.

Either way, blackmail is not considered as a reason for this ban.

If you're not running the script any more then I don't see the problem. The thing is, automated tools to circumvent AFK timers and the like are generally frowned on because generally speaking, we have no control over what such tools are ultimately used for and it's impossible to discern a benign bot from a malicious one, so bots in general are not permitted. Next time there's a staff meeting I'll probably bring this up for an actual rule clarification, but it comes under the general header of exploits.

I'm working right now though so I can't get on the server, but I'm okay with lifting this as long as the script isn't run again.
