So we’ve seen the complaints and the reports and boy oh boy are there complaints and reports.
I’ve discussed the account with the other mods and admins multiple times, and while we agree the volume is a lot, it doesn’t point to a botfarm or multiple people using the account.

The others have been removed as duplicates.

Somebody crossed a line!
It was only a matter of time.
Taking it to PMs is a fast track to getting Admins involved and Admins do not fuck around.
