...or we couldn’t count interactions in hidden fields towards pokerus?
Like, if any interactions were made to Pokémon in a hidden field (via link), they won’t count towards pokerus at all. No field unlocking required.

I’m really sorry if this is in any way my fault for bringing up the whole analysis thing. I only want to help the staff and users. Hopefully this can be resolved with peace. 😊

I'm really glad this has been noticed by staff! Thank you for bringing it to light. I've seen it happening for a while, where feilds get locked and parties emptied. It's super annoying when you're doing an honest rus hunt >.< I feel like the most simple and fair way to deal with it is to give those caught in the act 1, and only 1, warning and repeat offenses get punished the way staff see fit. It'd be nice to see this exploit happen less regardless of how it's dealt with ^^

I thought we were having a discussion. If people are hurt by what others are saying, that’s on them. No need to apologize for what came of a mere suggestion or idea.
As long as it’s following site rules, I don’t see a problem with merely talking about it. ._.
@Kymahwolf, It’s definitely been an annoying thing to witness while RUS hunting. It sounds like the mods what they’re doing, and I hope this situation gets dealt with. :3 Honestly I wish it wouldn’t have to come to changing pokerus at all because of a few people.
This is no different than regular rule breaking. cursing in the forums, double posting, stealing, account sharing, multiple accounts. People have always suggested ways to detect these things and putting more work on the mods
It's so beyond simple.
Do
Not
Break
The
Rules.
Get a warning then get banned.
No need to make a new system
No need to make more work
No need for the suggestions
Regardless of what it is someone's gonna break a rule no matter if it's this one thing or not, they get a warning and then get punished. No point in doing anything unnecessary
I don't know why this has genuinely gotten me upset, I don't usually get this worked up. I feel so strongly about people breaking rules and I hate that the mods gotta deal with this. This will be my last post on the matter, last thing I want is a mod having to deal with me as well lool

Sorry if this comes off weird, I have a lot of trouble expressing myself, especially in written form. Also my intention is by no means to add fuel to the fire, so if you feel this comes across as this, then I apologize in advance. I've just practically read all the posts in the thread for the last few days, safe for the latest ones, and after much hesitation wanted to participate.
I just don't understand what the fuss is all about?
The whole point of the post, to me, just seems like a warning? Nothing more?
The people abusing the system are obviously fairly involved in the site, otherwise why would they put time and effort into doing all this?
If these people are smart, and frankly I think they are, then they'll just stop. I doubt they'd risk a ban, since, as I said, they must have strong ties with the game.
And there you have it. They'll stop.
(Alright, I'm a fairly naïve person, so that's how I see it. Realistically, some might try again a few months down the line, but then, if as staff says it's easily detectable, the risk is theirs to take.)
Also why would you assume avid Pokérus hunters and people locking their fields have anything to do with this post?
If you have locked your fields to avoid Pokémon being levelled up/to avoid people asking you if they can buy your Pokémon, or any reason whatsoever (you shouldn't have to justify the way you want to play), and you actively didn't have anything to do with the abuse of Pokérus, then why would you even get scared?
If you're very active in Pokérus hunting, of course you're going to get it often, that doesn't mean you're a cheater?
And if people report you for that? It's just a report. Staff will see that nothing is wrong, and that'll be the end of it.
I get the original post might have come off as... passive-agressive to some? But that's just individual interpretation. I just see it as a fair warning, as it's stated. How else should they have talked to potential cheaters?
(Also, but that's just naïve me talking again, some of these people abusing Pokérus might have not even realized the extent of their actions? Maybe this post served as a wake-up call?)
In short, there's absolutely no reason to freak out. The way I see it, for now there's no need to find a solution. There's no need to start to suspect one another. You're good.
