tongue-in-cheek title aside, this post is a message from the admin team about a change in policy - we are disallowing public accounts, such as the infamous Public Toilet, whose login info is freely accessible and usable by the general botb public.

the reasons for this are pretty simple actually - they are difficult to moderate and ripe with potential for abuse - and crucially that potential has been taken advantage of many times, be it through bad hosting practice when folks were using it to host, through ailment/ban evasion, or through "scrublike" entries which break the rules.

so, for the good of the realm (and our sanity as a moderation team) we are banning these accounts and will do the same towards any new account which reveals its login info in the future. thank you for understanding!

i support PT being mummid, but ill haeit the thread anyway because its sad that a part of silly botb culture from when i joined is now fully locked up.
i support the decision and still dislike the result basically

it is sad but necessary

i was one of the people helping PT get 7 badges so it could host any format, it was a great idea in principle, and having the option to send in a good-faith-but-shitposty entry anonymously was also great in principle

It’s an unfortunate case of people ruining the fun for everyone else.

Such a shame, really. The road to public toilet was certainly paved with good intentions. I feel weirdly honored (?) in a sense that the palette I created just out of spite of that one horrific red and green one is now the forever palette of the account lol

Fly high, PT. But not too high though, you'll burn a hole in the ozone layer and kill us all

Rest in peace, it was a good run, pour one out for the toilet, etc. o7

poor public toliet. may it stink forever more

i'd give it a norse funeral but that would contaminate the lake

Aw, damn it! I really needed to go!!

you may be able to get botbrs out of the public toilet, but youll never manage to get the public toilet out of the botbrs

this is a symptom of the rapid loss of third spaces in the US

Rest In Pee

Farewell, old friend

Do not go gentle into that good night, flushing fears to unknown pipes
Old age should burn, rave and shitpost at close of day;
Rage, rage against the dying of the peepee spot.

it really lived up to its name

it's all ludvigs fault :(

No, this is due to the full history there like dami mentioned, not just any recent thing. Admins have been talking about this for a while

My apologies.
