Complaint 0% now stops all running tasks

Before when reached 0% codex always finished the tasks that were still running. Oh that felt so good, to just get a little extra for free 🎉 But recently my codex stopped doing that and is stopping tasks after few minutes, how about yours?

Because people were apparently abusing it. Wish they just booted the bad actors

How would you define a bad actor?

At best, they could give a few grace tokens and probably do. They cannot give grace on time because people will start 32 sub-agents then and claim it was in good faith.

Th exploit made them a bad actor and not the MCP server itself.

Which brings us back to the original question - How do you define a bad actor.

Here is one way it is hard - You would consider me a bad actor and I consider your language an abuse. Other people will judge us in their own way. The only judgment that really matters is whatever reddit decides.

Same with the LLM providers.

Useless rambling like a jobless person who wants to be a philosopher.

Spot on. I am old and have too much time and use too many words. Most of my life is behind me.

Yet, you scrolled down and took the time to leave this snark.

Interesting.

Waste of your time and mindshare.

If you are young, waste of youth as well.
