Recent Developments of TOS Actions Taken

[Vnolan]

A question out of this discussion: has SE ever actually said "we won't accept third-party evidence in any situation" or is that just what people have derived from "we can't accept this video as evidence because we can't verify it"?

The STF report form for third-party programs has a field to input a URL. They've never said they won't accept third-party evidence in any form and they never will, as that would tell everyone they could sell anything for real money as long as they direct to a discord. The current crop of clear sellers and Twitch art streams may be aware they can do this, but they're a very small minority.

Any instances of SE saying they can't accept outside evidence have come from GMs. The STF doesn't respond to the community.
