complaints

I'm changing up how cheaters are dealt with. In the past, I've created individual threads for cheaters and left them open for comments. This gives too much undeserved attention to these players though.

Going forward, I'm going to add their name to this thread which will be closed for comments. This thread won't be stickied either. The point of it is just to serve as a record of what happened. After that it should sink to the bottom where it belongs.

Reason: Hate/harassment

Note too that this wasn't an active player. I didn't know what else to call them besides their most commonly used bot. It was someone that made a bunch of troll bots to just sit in the online list and harass people or spread hateful messages.
