Do NOT post or promote tools or programs that break Destiny's TOS on RaidSecrets

There's been a lot of recent posts about locations and encounters from the upcoming Deep Stone Crypt raid. We've also seen questions about certain methods early players used to break into the area. You know what we're talking about: NetLimiter and other network manipulation tools. There's been enough discussion that we need to restate the subreddit's stance on these tools.

tl;dr: Don't promote or encourage breaking Destiny's TOS.

#Network manipulation tools

/r/RaidSecrets in no way supports cheating, hacks, NetLimiter, or breaking Destiny's TOS (Terms of Service). Tools like NetLimiter break TOS and should not be used under any circumstance unless you are ready for the Bungie ban hammer to come down. This is especially true for PvP, though Bungie is more than in their right to do so for PvE usage.

You can read more about bannable offenses in this Bungie Help article.

We understand the interest in what's been found. This is "RaidSecrets," after all. Everyone wants to know what secrets the new raid might hold. And that information is worth discussing here. But promotion of programs that can get you banned is obviously not allowed. This is not a "hacking" or "cheating" subreddit. In fact, those things go against some of the core tenets of this community.

To make this stance clear in the future we're adding more context to Rule 1.

As for the vast majority of spinfoil hat-bearers who have not been promoting these tools, um... good job? Yes! Keep doing that.

#Macros

We might as well cover this while we're here. This is what Bungie says breaks the TOS with regards to macros:

Using an external program or device to automate gameplay or circumvent idle detection.

However, not all macros are bad. Certain macros, such as automating trivial tasks (especially for accessibility reasons) have been deemed a-ok by Bungie.

Macros to circumvent idle detection break Destiny's TOS and may get you banned. Bungie made this clear the last time an AFK forge farm happened. As such, we don't allow users to post them on r/RaidSecrets.

AGAIN: Do not promote breaking Destiny's TOS via any programs, tools, or hacks on r/RaidSecrets. We do not support them and you'll get the boot (from us as well as Bungie). Thank you all for reading this far! :-)
