A new stalking pluging: Memoria, complete with a public online database of your character location history
>About Memoria is a FFXIV player lookup tool. A Dalamud plugin scans the players you encounter in-game; this website is where the data becomes searchable, browsable, and — if you claim your characters — yours to manage.
>Anyone can see public profile sections. Members of our Discord community can see richer data (locations, name/world history, alt characters). Owners can claim their character via a bio code and control what's shown.
>Contributing data Install the plugin via XIVLauncher's custom plugin repo. Every player you walk past enriches the dataset for everyone. No scans, no data.
From the plugin's database website. Any player you encounter with this plugin installed will upload a log of your character data with a time and place available for anybody to see on their website, a much more open version of Playerscope and all of the currently active copycats like PlayerTrack. It also tracks name changes, free company history, full character data, and alt characters. The developers claim you can hide yourself, but it comes with a set of hoops to jump through with Discord or a takedown request form with an email requirement, while that data is still being collected on your character.
Plugin developers will continue to push the line further and further with the development teams lack of action against them. Cheating, botting, harassment and stalking continue to be amplified with the continued advancement of plugin developement. At what point will things finally require the development team to put their foot down on everything?
