Output Event-Server Command

Well, I guess it could be fine for host only, but it can still be abusive from the host. Like saying if they step on a brick, it uses /messageSent and then they spam "I am the most biggest piece of stuff in the world.. asjdijaifjidjifjsidjfisjdifjs idfjsijf---"..

yes, eval is the other part I was talking about
if badspot took down eval in chat form, what's so different about eval in event form? or is this mod for chat commands instead of console functions?

and then somebody somehow tricks the host into doing something and they complain
can happen without this, but this might make it easier

I think that would fall under intentionally worsening your server, in which case I don't think you really have room to complain. Badspot's point was that people could get access to commands that they aren't regularly allowed to access. Since I can't think of any command that's restricted to the host, I think that making the event host-only takes care of the problem.

Just not making the add-on will create less risk for everyone. Plus, badspot will either just remove it, or will remove it and ban you.
There is a reason why everything will get fail binned if it creates vulnerabilities to the server.

It was using server commands, they can be easily spammed, and like Badspot said, it has a possibility of shutting down the server. These can be used with relay events, which the server will just be a disappointment.

I don't think it would make it easier; The only difference is where the host types the command.
