Basically if you whisper to another member but tag a user with Username in that whisper, that user who got tagged in the whisper will get the sound but won't know where the ping came from.

It's a small bug, a bit annoying, could use fixing. By the way if any staff member complains that I was being pushy for a reward for finding this bug, its a meme, I was joking, take a chill pill, learn to not be analytic machines.

The positions should not define you. You define your position.

High performance, consistent uptime and fast support. Minecraft hosting that just works.

It's already begun. The more abuse, the more noticed it'll get to be fixed.

Mainly due to 2 certain chat mods telling me to make a support request to get bugs fixed... which they should know takes forever to address... let alone bug threads like this one too. So the more attention we give it, by exploitation, the more likely they'll get someone to fix it.

Found a minor bug that’s only ever a problem if people abuse it?
Hey, I know. Let’s encourage everyone to abuse it so that it unnecessarily becomes a problem!
Yeah, that sounds like a great idea. That way development time has to be taken off of things which will actually benefit the community and put towards things that have never once been a problem in the years prior till I just made into one.
Genius!

We only have one developer. He doesn’t have unlimited time.
If we could push out all of our bug fixes and site improvements all at once, we would.
This sort of behavior doesn’t help anything.

Anyone found intentionally abusing whisper tagging will receive warning points, a suspension, and ban from shoutbox.
Same as if they were abusing tags in normal chat messages.

Don’t expect any tolerance.
How'd you get word of this? I'm amazed at the speed it took you to reply with such a fierce tone. Did you stumble upon this yourself or did other staff actually communicate their concerns to you?[DOUBLEPOST=1552174196][/DOUBLEPOST]

Also what's stopping you? Money? Does MCM not have enough from the numerous users who buy upgrades and keeps this site up and running? Let the community know what we can do if anything to get this shit sorted out.

you claimed that they couldn’t read whispers hahaha
Because they can't. His message is referring to reports.

Not like this site has a ton of competent (and a majority of not so competent) developers to hire!

If anyone abuses this feature please let us know and we will investigate. It's not worth us fixing this considering how much we have to do at the moment.

I'll move this to the bug report archives, thank you.
