You don't really need to record pm's (I'm not preaching values).

The only thing it would ever be used for is to prove player harassment through pm's (Because history can be edited == annoying )

I can see the uses in a system like this, for harassment or something, but people can just put someone on ignore, and if they're doing it in person, they can record a movie of it.

Also, a ToS is not a binding legal agreement anyway. They can't sue you over a disagreement, however, they can cut off your access to their own game for any reason.

Anyway, I think you'd have a lot less players on your server if they knew you were able to record their messages.

No, the GIM thing on UN uses GuiPMCtrls. Otherwise, they wouldn't be able to show non-GIM PMs. They also use a control for how they send the PM. It's not even possible for them to read the text.

Recording PMs and punishing people for what they say is an excellent way to ward off those pesky players. Plus, it's an excellent distraction and still gives you the feeling you're doing 'work.'

I rarely log any sort of communication systems I make on Graal. I know morals are a joke when you think about it but seriously everyone's entitled to some sort of privacy..

Looking at it objectively, it's still a stupid idea. I don't care about privacy and all that self-righteous nonsense, but I do think it breeds bad karma for the server. While I understand the purpose of logging conversations, I also see it as a way out of fixing the real problems that exist for developers. I mean, why spend time fixing a bug that will continue to be abused in the future when you can just ban someone for it? Am I right?

I see logging as a way to compensate for the shortcomings of server administration. If things are so far out of your control that you have to start logging every word they say out of stupid suspicions, aren't you already in over your head?
