I've been sitting on this idea for a game for a bit, but I keep running into one snag: Guests.

My game will rely heavily on past data in the game and playing a guest would just be stupid. Could I justify not allowing guests into my game if I wanted to? I played around the time guests came out on my older account, and back then it was a bannable offense to keep guests out of your games. Has this changed?

I believe that it is against the TOM ( Terms Of Service) to restrict that.

Hm. How about some stupid way to get around it? I could just, ya' know, make them stuck in a constant GUI minigame.

You could restrict guests from accessing certain places or features of your game without really having to ban them. I doubt that's punishable.

Or just let the guest play, even though their data won't save.
You don't need to cater to guests. They can't spend $R and they can't rate.

I don't know why that wasn't the first thing to come to mind.

It would be like them starting over - over and over. I'm silly. Thanks.

Where is this rule on banning guests anyway? I've read the ToS and Code of Conduct multiple times unable to find anything about this.

pls cite

Just set all guests walkspeed to 0. They're playing, but it's not very fun.

I say you should just let them play the game but definitely encourage them to make an account.

There's really nothing to lose by allowing guests into your game; after all, it's just more players for you. They can't even dislike your game if they don't enjoy it.

I have the same idea. How do I? Its not a rule. RGT does it. So really its not on TOS.
