Personnel

gollark: Perhaps a giant claimwall around Switchcity?
gollark: Idea: place claims in places which people may one day use then sell them at exorbiant prices if they try to.
gollark: TERRORIST!
gollark: No, it doesn't. I thought that having it send to ingame accounts on the same switchcraft.kst thing would, then I realized that it just needed to switch the numbers around internally without going through the krist node.
gollark: Oops.
