gollark: Even besides that, you should specifically deny access to the shop itself rather than ALL WOLFMALL.
gollark: I can't tell if you're serious.
gollark: §8[195,73,94][PM] §5[ §nSELL SHOP§5 ]: §bHey gollark, you've been standing in the cabin for a while now. Make sure than after you're done, you'll make place for others. Excessive §4afking§b in the cabin is §alogged§b, and you may be §4denied access§b to Wolf Mall when you're unneccesarely obstructing the SELL SHOP for others! Thank you kindly for understanding!
gollark: It's an internal API which I expose for reasons, like skynet.URL.
gollark: skynet.connect is I think done in skynet.listen too.
