We just had this chaos again in MSMG. The rule doesn’t even work for the very thing it’s trying to prevent, and this time it was a trusted owner who wanted to do it for fun before deleting.
WE SHOULD INCREASE THE OWNER LIMIT. FOR THOSE WITH CONCERNS OF HACKING, ANY OWNER CAN BE HACKED. THE MORE OWNERS THERE ARE, THE HIGHER CHANCE THERE IS TO REMOVE AN OWNER WHO HAS BEEN HACKED BEFORE THE HACKED OWNER REMOVES THE REST OF THE OWNERS AND MODS. IT’S NOT EVEN THAT THE SITE IS TRYING TO DEFEND AGAINST HACKING, IT CAME UP WITH A HASTILY MADE SOLUTION TO DEAL WITH AN ISSUE THAT HAPPENED ONCE, THEN AGAIN AFTER THE RULE WENT INTO AFFECT WHEN ONE OF THE ACCOUNTS WAS ACTUALLY HACKED. THE ONLY OTHER REASON I SEE AGAINST THIS IS THAT PEOPLE HAVE BEEN SAYING THERE IS A HUGE DRAMA AROUND OWNERS WHEN THERE ARE MORE THAN 5. GRANTED IT’S NOT A RANK EVERYONE SHOULD HAVE, BUT I THINK A COUPLE MORE OWNERS WOULD HELP WHEN POLICING THE STREAMS. I REMEMBER THIS ORIGINALLY BECAME A RULE BECAUSE SOMEONE IN MSMG WAS MADE OWNER WHEN THEY SHOULDN’T HAVE BEEN AND THEY REMOVED EVERYONE ELSE’S OWNER. THE PROBLEM IS THAT THE USERS DON’T TAKE THE TIME TO FIND OUT WHO CAN AND CAN’T BE TRUSTED. FOR SOMETHING LIKE MSMG, THIS IS AN ISSUE. FOR SMALL STREAMS WITH RELATIVELY NO USERS, THIS ISN’T. AND HACKING IS ALWAYS AN ISSUE THAT THIS SITE CANNOT PROTECT AGAINST. THAT IS UP TO THE USER TO PROTECT THEMSELVES.
