Genesis Security Update: PvP & Bot Concerns

Good Evening Genesis

Hey everbody! We've had a few things recently going on with server security and we want to be open and honest with you all as we attempt to navigate these issues.

First:

Recently we enabled bases to be viewed on some servers and it was in the process of rolling out everywhere. The setting we used was in the PvP section of server settings. Which is why you were receiving messages about bases being raided and the problem using Might and Vital Elixers. No PvP damage was ever enabled on @Zoloft , @Dread Pirate and @Spicy Nugget . However, Palworld's definition of PvP seems to include giving all players access chests at any guild. It has been turned off in every server except @Baron Genesis . Players on Baron you NEED to put codes on all your chests to prevent stealing. We are looking for a way around this as stealing is not how Genesis defines PvP, but so far have not found anything to help issue in Baron. So @Baron Genesis please lock all your chests.

Second:

We have been hearing of an uptick bots on the discord and poaching. I have turned off many normal avenues that bots typically spam a discord, but I cannot control DMs. These people generally DO NOT message any member of an admin team as they know it results in an instant ban on any discord server. So we do need your help with this. If you see something, say something. Please feel free to make a #ticket to give us a heads up. We do not want any of you being harassed in any way in your DM.

Please reach out via #❓-questions❓ or in a #🛠️-tickets-🛠️ if you have any concerns or questions.
