Given it's trivial to conduct a port scan to identify the port and have a punt at connecting, it seems like a bit of a silly rule. IIRC the rule was originally introduced when people found the port and were spamming connections, making Telnet generally difficult to use. Maybe a re-word to cover that scenario instead makes more sense? I can add something along the lines of: Spamming telnet or rcon with attempted logins to the extent that it interferes with an admin's ability to moderate the server remotely. |

Our conduct policy has been vastly rewritten, this rule is one of those rules that was redundent. Suggestion closed, user also worked on the new policy.
