    Not really sure which "high overlord" this is aimed at, pixelot, but for the record legitimate discussion is always allowable. Moreover, attempting to stifle discourse by attempting to hold the truncheon of "forum admins will ban you" over other people's heads is in itself a potentially ban-able offence due to its misleading and somewhat abusive nature towards other forum users. Seriously, just try to pull another trick like that and see where it lands you, sonny Jim. :huh?:
    ----

    On a more general note, fwiw, I'd suggest that peoples' like/dislike of the pony class on the RP servers is a legit discussion provided it revolves around why MLP references are/are not appropriate for the server-- not around bashing MLP & bronies in general. People doing the latter from here on out will receive off-topic warnings.

    Additionally, as unsavory as the topic may be, the subject of stealing code is a legit discussion for this thread. I'm not going to enter into it myself beyond noting that @Aphelion3371 is mistaken: it is completely possible, using seclevs, to differentiate between guards and admins (as well as super admins, mega admins, hyper admins, and whatever-adjective-you-care-to-stick-here admins) and give each group whatever powers/lack-thereof one might desire. Make of this fact what you will.

    Finally, I realise that some of you seem to enjoy giving aphelion a hard time; please keep in mind that if your posts are not along legitimate lines of discussion (as appropriate for the thread) your ire will earn you a few warning points and possibly a timeout to cool off.

    I want to say that some of the conversation is not constructive at all. Especially talking about the "code stealing", aside from the Potions, everything (new) on the server was created by me. What more is there to say/discuss about that?

    Also want the clarify that I did not say checking seclevs was impossible:

    You should really get permission for that (assuming you haven't already) and give credit in the server description ingame. The fact you haven't done so already for at least saying "potion system by Strathos" makes you look questionable and leads to these verbal attacks.

    Strathos did talk to me about it. He was fine with it so long as he gets credit.

    Did you credit him anywhere? I'm assuming so but I didn't notice it in the OP before.

    Edit he is credited in the op so... just ingame is left.

    Yet you stole it, so it's something to talk about, the fact that you did it, and want closed source, and didn't give credit. There in lies a problem does it not? Or does it matter, because 'everything (new) on the server was created by me'. Let me go steal some kids, as long as I make the rest of them.

    It's not an issue if he's fine with it, if he isn't anymore he can post here or contact me. Now, move along.

    Those little "Did you know...?" snippets ingame would be the perfect place to credit him, imo.

    Anyway this has been beaten to death so I think the issue of script stealing should be null and void, unless anyone else wants to point out anything elsefor the sake of argument.

    He did discuss it with Strathos though so aside from the questionable accrediting of the potions it wasn't actually stolen.

    As long as pony is a race, it won't and can't be.

    It doesn't bother us that people use or change our code and sprites, we don't even require credits (however it's nice that your effort does get recognized when you put time into a project). My only request is that you don't claim ownership over whatever assets you decide to use from other mods.

    RP 3.7 so far:
    Deploys tomorrow. Once I fix any issues with Roleplay I'll get back to working on ADVENTURE. Though I'd like to add different skins for different races, and if anyone could do the spriting let me know.

    Not to mention that there won't be any more admin abusing of the picking up players, since only three admins have that ability.

    Unless that's the next version, in which case oops.

    That last item is very discouraging, but the second to last seems to be very novel. Now I can carry a body in my baddie.
