If we had more time, maybe we'd be able to get that across better and just ban them from asking the things that their ruleset overrid anyway.\n\nThanks for enjoying!","format":"md","likes":1,"spam":"N"},{"id":1221333,"author_name":"MarWes76","author_uid":"marwes76","epoch":1777822081,"text":"@tomssuli Thanks for the feedback!
