Re: Make harming a human's holoparasite/guardian as an Asimov borg human harm

There's lots of things that silicons cannot interact with in an ideal way, and thats part and parcel of the restrictions of being a silicon - I'm not sure we should be ring gating antagonist content that silicons are allowed to valid because it'd be inconvenient for them to not be allowed to.

Thanks for that - basically, we take ban evasion very seriously - breaking the rules is one thing, but trying to flaunt the ban system basically attempts to invalidate the ban and appeals system, and isn't really fair to other players who have to take their lumps, one way or another!
