The problem with discussing the game in outside channels is that I, as the host, cannot verify their security, do not know what is going on in there, and cannot see if there’s some kind of slip-up that allows for integrity to be breached.
If ongoing-game-discussion happens in my spectator Discord or on the Fortress of Lies website, I have the power to know if something is messed up
Noted
We’ll stop doing this for future games
anyways uh thanks for hosting ill watch this anime eventually i promise i have such a long backlog it’s so bad for me
if we do a watch party ill join i swearsies
And uh. The Discord server owner is able to see private threads. Otherwise they are an entirely unmoderatable feature
just take ur notes in the role dm i do this so dead chat can laugh at me
We can test this real quick
nobody wants to read all of my role channel messages trust
Oops yeah you’re right…
This won’t continue
you’re the dumbest boy alive
You can see it?
I would like to emphasize that this is a really serious problem and you absolutely should not be discussing the game literally anywhere without checking in with the host first. This is a breach of game integrity and FoL rules and I would not be unjustified in declaring the game a no-contest over this.
You cannot discuss the game without host knowledge, especially not in a Discord server, it is a moderation nightmare. I don’t care if you think it’s secure, all you have to do cause a really big problem is be wrong.
I know you’re frustrated, but it was a genuine mistake. The parties have accepted responsibility and apologized. There is no need to continue scolding us for what is an accident.
You can absolutely declare this game no-context, but I think the repeated scolding is unwarranted.
No it is perfectly within may’s rights as a mod to emphasize how bad this is
Maybe I have 200IQ move to kill the mole (its a joke laugh)
If you discuss games in another Discord server because everybody there is dead, you reveal that nobody in the Discord server has an alt in the game. If you rely on server permissions of a server owned by a player to maintain game integrity, Discord can fuck up and the host can have no clue. Players can have different standards for what constitutes a game integrity breach and thus cause issues that way.
I have to have absolute trust in the both of you to know this wasn’t a case where cheating occurred. I technically don’t even know it didn’t right now!
I think you can emphasize it without essentially repeating the same thing across multiple different messages
Admittedly i am pretty defensive of meow
I do want to clarify that I don’t think any discussion of the game happened while the game was ongoing
the integrity issue is that the server owner can see the threads
Can you tell me what you think happened based on what’s been revealed here?
You talking about the game in your private thread is the discussion FTR, it’s just the fact that Jason coulda seen that and townread you over it
