perhaps it's that tunnel server stuff for those behind proxies? the "tunnel" is a dead giveaway... *shrug* it could be something completely

As this portion of the log doesn't expose what is being said, I fail
to see how it's a privacy invasion. All it does is tell you Bob
whispered to Sue.

Open conversation is subject to logging by anyone.

Any other unannounced person nearby could also see this conversation,

There are bots that have purposes that do not require their physical
presence in a world. I myself prefer my bots remain unannounced even
when physically present.

>A comment on Privacy...

There is no direct way to control activity on the Internet. Such laws
may only be active in one country, and not in any other.

>"The federal Electronic Communications Privacy Act (ECPA) makes it unlawful

Note that the said law applies to e-mail messages. Apparently, it
would not apply to a VR chat bot logging explicitly -open-
conversation.

The fact there is no notice on AW's site that the suggestion box is

This is especially evident in AWTeen (which is running Nox, thus

If you want to compact executable files, I recommend "The Ultimate
Packer for eXecutables" at http://upx.sourceforge.net (real example: I
managed to squeeze that silly 2MB xelagot to a whopping 703KB).

You should note EXE compacters don't work on any of AW's stuff because
they are protected.

i hope he does :) xelagots run just fine compacted, so why waste the
2MB of space when it can be only ~700KB. not to mention it'd decrease
the download size
