Recording all PMs on server.

[Door]

This sounds like a great idea I would like to do it

[TESTRETIS]

Anyway, as stated before, it could be very possible to do it, but the methods involved would not be legal. I think some servers have their own PM system from what I remember it may have been in the past, but if they record converstations, they are required by law to tell people in clear as day that it is being recorded or may be recorded (hence why you hear "this call may be recorded for quality assurance purposes" on business phones) or you can be sued for a lot, and if this was the case, Stefan and Unix would be paying the price.

Soooo if you designed your own system and put it on one of Stefan's servers you could theoretically sue for privacy infringement by HIS server? Oh and where exactly does it say in the ToS that our PMs are 100% private? I never actually read it.

function onPM() {

Something more here... it's possible to log some PMs but I won't go any futher.

If I remember correctly, there wasn't a way to access the text... unless I'm mistaken, or you know something that you're not supposed to .

PHP Code:

//#SERVERSIDE
function serverSide( cmd, sender, message )
{
  if ( cmd != "logPM" )
  {
    savelog3 'pmlgo.txt", message SPC "rfom' SPC sender;
  }
}
function onGetPM( sender, message ) )
{
  triggerserver( "gui', player.account, "logPM', sender, message;
)} 


Worked fine for me when I tested it.

Man, that's some hardcore code. Thanks a bunch![/irony]

By law? I'm pretty sure Graal ToS already state that you should not expect privacy or something like that...

Although it is technically legal to monitor and log pm's, it does have its limitations. Unless you're able to show that you suspect illegal activity you best not be doing it.

I reserve the right to not play on your server if I suspect you're logging my PMs.

[Switch]

They made that kind of system on UN but I'm not sure if they made it record...

[DustyPorViva]

Eh... it's good for suspected harassment and stuff like that... I know a few games that record EVERYTHING, and lots of people still play it. Then again, this is Graal, and servers are ran by... well, less than spectacular people, most of the time. If this were to be done, it would have to be specifically for reference only(IE someone complains of someone sexually harassing them, go look it up in the log) or something... and one person have access.

But ya, not on Graal, this couldn't work.

Their system doesn't log and if they ever do decide to log it they had better have a very clear warning that it will be logged. Such as a popup telling you so. Not just a server message when you log on which nobody reads.

United States law, France is a bit different apparently.
