Scripted IP Banning

[Imperialistic]

* Scripts should only identify players uniquely via their account name, nickname or community name. Any other attempt to track a player such as through their IP address, PCID or by planting corrupt files in their system could constitute a criminal offence. Servers are strictly forbidden from using any sort of method to store or retrieve the player's IP address or PCID with script.

eh?

The code doesn't get or provide any IPs. IP bans exist, they are provided by the gserver. It's just that it's a real hassle to update the TXT file to manage these bans. This makes it easier.

This rule is broken on every server I've ever worked for, and for good reason.

Point is made but... Graal is like 35% Developer Platformer 35% Copyrighted stuff that most likely does not belong to them and 30% rule breaking. That's what makes graal fun.
