Aww thanks for noticing! and thanks for the compliment <3 I have appealed it and I'm shocked they won't let me speak to Keith because it's completely unjustified and there's surrounding variables that make it unlawful. Basically they have me on a "30 day suspension" then changed it to "multiple accounts" then changed it back to "suspension for disruptive behavior" once I called them out on it. I received [b]one[/b] warning for "trade abuse" when I tried to warn people about a trafficking issue.

Albiet, not my best method, but I had to prove if staff was competent and would handle it with grace and sensitivity; neither were done. Luckily I can legally and otherwise protect Keith and the original crew that knew about this... but the new crew is incredibly stupid and over 500,000 lives are affected by them not following protocol. So it's a lot of shit at once.

Having said that, it's been over a month and they keep brushing me off. Aeria just extended it to 2 months a week or two ago. I'm beyond pissed off and disappointed. I only have 1 warning on file, not 6, and posting a trade lot with a forum post isn't "disruptive behavior" imo, even IF protocol were followed this is a blatant disregard for people as well as an abuse of power. It says a lot without saying it, and I feel bad that the site itself has to deal with this bullshit.

I've been sniffing out AI-assisted coding (or vibe coding if you hate yourself) on virtual pet sites, and it really makes me wonder about the future of our spaces. I do LIKE the THOUGHT of it giving devs the opportunity to refactor their ancient, crusty code and refresh some of the old systems to stay relevant. However, WHAT I currently see is a pile of uninspired, badly designed systems that no one is actively asking for – and that definitely checks out when you think about what asshats have been doing with genAI in the first place.
