Could I point out first of all that it shows in the screenshot that SQR did adminhelp this issue, had a reply, and replied to that? This isn't being done instead of adminhelping, and it isn't naming or singling out the traitor in question.
A slavery gimmick has the potential to become extremely awful very quickly. Personally I would wait to see if the traitor had something interesting planned and adminhelp when things got creepy, but it's understandable for someone to be unwilling to even see where things went, simply because of where they could go.
What this thread is essentially asking is if slavery comes under the 'do not do this' list of rules, and, if it doesn't, whether other players think that it should be added. It's clear from the majority of replies that people are against that, but I don't see any harm in asking. When something is in a grey area like this, with some people being ok with it and some not, you absolutely should start a discussion about whether it's allowed on the server.
I could have misunderstood something, but I was told in the early days the goonservers didn't have anti-bigotry rules. I'm sure there was at least some discussion before those were added, and I guarantee there were people opposed to them. The issue in this thread is obviously not on the same scale, but it should be talked about.
Grayshift beat me to saying it, but if people shout SQR down for this, other people will be reluctant to draw attention to similar issues, possibly even worse ones.
