Everything you post is pure nonsense
No it doesn't, it means that while practically speaking a malicious player can get away with it hypothetically, no rational actor is going to try and employ it purposely knowing it can be verified

k most of the players in this section are not rational so another L for your argument
none is complaining about it cuz of their alignment, just generally it can influence night actions. like an "agree" or "like" react at night can legitimately transfer information to the recipient, even if it was as small as a nod of a head
That's irrelevant, saying yo can't enforce this is like saying you can't enforce rule breaking because players can delete or edit posts, obviously nonsensical. If it wants to be enforced it obviously can be culturally and otherwise. Most players aren't going to want to break rules and they can be snitched on

rational is looking at the last page of the thread to see if the phase is over or not before reading back and replying to stuff, yet how many people fail to do that every single end phase? but you think people are going to be super disciplined with reacts? delusional
I'm not going to police reacts in my games. if staff want to disable it then so be it
and yeah it can be abused by scum too so it goes both way
maybe a vig says, shud i kill PlayerName
and a scum reacts with agree
i mean yeah they can be mostly ignored but there is always a non zero percent chance that they cause sm1 to change their actions
a common example is when someone posts a read list or says "PlayerName is scum" and then another player reacts to it with "agree" over the night. that cud impact the receipients perspective of the the other players
or vice versa, a town read player reacts with disagree to another player's read list

now the serious question is wud town still change the game to unranked if they won

there's also a difference between intentional cheating (i.e sending unauthorized messages, deleting posts, etc) and accidentally reacting/posting after a phase ends. the latter happens constantly with posts and it would be even worse with reacts since it's easier to react than to post.

tbh I think it should still be ranked. town played poorly. yeah that setup was a bit weird but that's christmas mafia for you. hard to properly balance 30 players with everyone having some kind of role as per Christmas tradition
There's a clear difference in intent though, you're not approaching this with any sort of nuance because you are disinterested. My expectation is that if we came together and agreed on no reacts at night it would generally peter out with the occasional mishap. Not rocket science lol

all right let's give it a go so I can laugh at you when it completely bombs
