How does 869 interact with determining the gamestate exclusively
through public fora anyways? The public fora doesn't have record of
whether each registered player is a discrete organism capable of
freely originating and communicating independent thoughts and ideas,
it just assumes that players are following the rules when they
register. Before the moment of registration, a person's personness is
only calculable outside of public fora. I guess registration is
activating a restricted action, which makes me prefer G's possibility
to CB's, but I'm honestly a little stumped on that one.

also i'm a big fan of "the crime of invisibilating"
