RULE BREAK Q&A [Moved]

Good question!
We have actually allowed cloning before. (Hundreds of years ago, once upon a time, etc) It ended up being a bad decision because a good portion of people just don't take it well when they get a cloned object, or it adds a huge amount of animosity between people because there's a good portion of AC players that will start to feel angry at others for all the effort they've put in. If you'd like to clone, dupe, whatever privately there's really not a whole lot we can do, but it all comes down to just being decent all around.
While one person is honest, others like to be severe jerks. It causes more problems than it solves to allow some types of things and not others.
Who said I was doing this with every single thread? It'd be nice if you'd stop questioning my methods here and worry more about other things. Unless you have a question, I'm going to politely ask you to remove yourself from this thread instead of continuing to question my approach to fixing issues. It was already suggested by another mod that I issue a warning or infraction to you for your back-talk and post quality on the thread-entry. I've obviously, done nothing to you, and from what I'm seeing here you're acting like you feel I'm being forceful, angry, and hateful just directed at you.
You obviously don't know me at all. I'm like this to even my closest friends.
So, let's continue.

Oh, well, that's understandable. Thinking about it, there's a possibility such a thing would inject a kind of distrust within the community.
Exactly. TBT is usuuuually pretty close-knit between animal crossers. Even without duping, we have a lot of people here that cause issues. I'd only even consider making it a thing if everyone and I mean, everyone was trustworthy. Too big of a community for that.
That could be true, depending how you view it.
But than I have another question. What did posts #11 to #21 contribute to this thread?
There has been some off-topic. It happens. It's not your job to sift through it though. Has anything been done to you? No. Leave it be. You're trying to start something and it's not appreciated.
Ehhhh... not really. Jake would be getting fifty a day. As long as the posts are read-able, and not full of spam or other rule-breaks it's not really a reportable offense.

Given the nature of Ask the Staff, this thread would probably end up being more useful. =p

Can I report a mod for being ridiculous. (Considering he's not reading this anymore ^_^)

We should call this thread 'The Serious Ask the Staff'.
I have a question. If we were to make an IV breeding thread (just an example) and use PokeGened Pokemon for breeding, would it count as breaking the rules, because you're using unlegit Pokemon for breeding?

Well the whole point of this is to clarify rules. I didn't even think of the ask the staff thread, but no one ever asks anything game rule related in there.
If you're being serious, then yes. There's NEVER any reason you should be afraid of staff. If you feel like there's been a serious injustice done, or if you're just not feeling good about a situation you're in with a mod then you can make a report with your case against said mod. Usually if it's a case against one of us, we'll either pass it off to another mod, or try and explain our side of things to you. If you're not comfortable with the mod in question answering anything, explicitly state in your report in a KIND and RESPECTFUL manner that you'd like another moderator to handle the issue.
If a tree falls in the woods and no one's around to hear it, does it make a sound?
In other words, if you're breeding hacked pokemon, and no one around knows it, are you still creating a product of two fakes?
There may be some mixed opinions on that but game hacking is incredibly risky as it is. I say that if there's any cheating involved with the final product then it should be illegal by our standards, however, that's a situation that has never actually been brought up to me before. My opinion on the matter isn't final say, but to keep 'whining' to a minimum, try and play it safe man.
If someone offers to dupe an item for someone for free, that is bad, yes? I happened to read an offer in another thread and hesitate to report it due to my unfamiliarity with what duping items in general was, and that it was a free offer.
Duping, regardless of offers or conditions is against the rules.
