Lord Tony²:
He blocked me from personal messaging, I don't even remember messaging him.

Firstly, bot events DO NOT send avatar update commands to the server. They change the player's node's color/shape/whatever directly using player-based commands.
Second, unless you're saying that Badspot has deliberately scripted the client to update their own player when they change avatars but not tell the server, just to forget with us, then players quite definitely can change their avatars without rejoining.
Lord Tony²:
How about a mod disabling all avatar changes that don't require the GUI.

This is not possible. You clearly do not understand how Blockland works.
Server-sided mods CANNOT tell what a client is doing beyond what the client tells them.
As it so happens, this includes avatar changes. There is only one way to change your avatar, so all avatar-changing mods, by necessity, will use this one way. This also happens to be the same way that the Avatar GUI uses to change the avatar.

He put an * in the block list, blocking everyone.
