Pickings Are Slim, But This Really Isn't Okay, Is It?

[Solowing]

SE seems to look the other way when it comes to 3rd party tools until they're used to negatively impact another player's game experience or violate decency laws. They don't go after every ACT user after all, they just go after the ones that use parse information to humiliate/harass other players or have publicly displayed use of additional plug-ins that create an unfair game advantage.

Most of those using housing tools are using them in a reasonable manner that doesn't interfere with other players so SE has no reason to waste the time on them assuming they even get reported.

So are 3rd party tools ok to use or not?

Or is it ok to selectively enforce that rule?

Either you have to action his account for 3rd party addon usage, and then you have to action everyone else for the same thing.

Or you overlook this as well since this was caused the addon they turn a blind eye to.

The reason "housing tools" are used in a reasonable manner is because it's used in an isolated instanced space. Once you are able to decor within a shared space, complaints of eyesores will crop up.

Creating an eyesore isnt reportable in itself and using add-on that you turn a blind eye to isnt itself a reportable offense unless you plan to action everyone else for the same.

This thread comes down to. "Someone is using an addon that is against ToS to create an eyesore that not against the ToS, so action the account that technically isnt breaking the rules but please dont touch the addon that allowed them to place it there that is against the ToS!"
