Using groups & bots to TP people of said groups

[Chibbchichi]

Hey, 

just a question for clarification if it's a reason to report someone. 

So i'm in various groups, and sometimes i get a TP by what appears to be a bot. These bots are sometimes in the same groups as i am, so i guess they just get the groups member list and TP one member at the time.

I could also see the bot stop-motion-wandering in circles, supposedly TPing people which each stop.

Is it allowed that these bots use groups to just TP people to their location (club/escord service/etc)?

 

Thanks in advance for clearing this one up.

The answer might be no, but the quick solution for you would be to block the bots and simply not click accept on random teleport offers (because even a bot can't force people in, they need to accept first).

I don't believe it breaks the TOS, and therefore, not a reportable offense(I could be wrong, someone will come along if I am).

That said, a particular group MAY have a rule for its members against sending random TP requets, which could get a person(or bot) removed from the group. So,if you were going to report, I'd start there, talk to a group owner.

Otherwise, just ignore it. TP requests in and of themselves aren't really harmful,you don't have to accept, you can just ignore. If it gets to be annoying, mute/block the sender, then you'll never see it again from that av.
