I am not aware of any former links to bots which I let exist. They might have slipped through, though. Please send me a PM with the threads so I can delete them.

You might have heard a certain rumor about me. This rumor is completely false. You might also have heard the other rumor about me. This rumor is 100% accurate.

Dear Crush,

i must dissent about your action, you said that the links to botting clients for TMW posted by argul could hurt TMW and you removed them, this is supposed to be an opensource project, your server do not allow bots, your server has GMs that are there to handle bots and remove them so i don't see how the botting clients could *hurt* TMW since such rule is set and there are people that are in charge to enforce it. However other servers could allow bots and the could take advantage of such clients. So i don't see how your TMW project could be hurted.

It seems, for my understanding, that argul was part of GHP and he is in possession of such clients, this seems hypocrite. One member of GHP had botting clients and other members might own them too. I don't see how we, players, should trust such people that owns botting clients for TMW since the rule of their own server states that bots are not allowed. Which instead might be the cause that could *hurt* your project.

I would like a serious explanation from the GHP members about this, because right now to my eyes it seems that the *rule* is enforced only to the players. You might say that possession is different from usage but how could you prove that such software hadn't been used at least one in the official server?

Regards.

He is free to publish his bots on their forums, then.
