Default annoying spammer warning

I have been working on a project off and on for the past 2 years or so. I like to keep the server name vague and random as to discourage people from logging on.

Every once in awhile (and im talking about maybe once every couple of months) I will leave the server unlocked due to logging in unflagged accounts to box to test out content.

For the past 2 years I have had a user begging to:
  • Make him a GM
  • Make him a Guide
  • Trade my DB for his
  • Trade my DB for Varlyndria's publicly released DB (super lol)
  • Just flag my account!

The guy generally goes by the name "Ekood" his discord handle is "BuffQueen".

I just wanted to warn people, especially newer people who are just starting to run a server, NEVER give anyone GM or DB access to your server. Especially not someone like this.

I have multiple account names for this user and his current IP address, if anyone would like it just PM me. I highly recommend just avoiding this guy pestering you.

I banned him on my server so now he tries to contact me on Discord. Here are just two of our very many conversations that go exactly the same way:

This guys goes by numerous names, most commonly using Johnny in some variation. I just block his accounts as he makes them.
