RULE 7.9READING / 4 PARAGRAPHS

Bot Commands, Reactions & Feature Abuse

Use bot commands, applications, tickets, polls, starboards, bump tools, counting games, economy systems, and reaction features for their intended purpose. Do not exploit race conditions, bugs, permission gaps, or automation to gain rewards or disrupt service.

Do not repeatedly trigger expensive commands, force unwanted notifications, manipulate public counters, manufacture starboard entries, or use commands to reveal information a member could not otherwise access.

Report exploitable behaviour privately before testing further. Rewards or balances gained through an error may be reversed without being treated as property taken from the user.

Normal experimentation is not abuse when it is low-impact and stops after an error becomes apparent. Concealment, repetition, profit, or sharing an exploit increases severity.
