I don't know the safety of it today but I wouldn't be using it again. Crazy how they always think you have used another bot or software like theirs never gets detected.

They should have stayed in the league scene, but they moved to WOW, thinking it would be easy money, and for a while, that was true; they deceived people with many promises, but ultimately failed to deliver on most, if not all, of them.
There was/is a mix of poor leadership choices and unqualified developers who were at best mid-level, making rotations and plugins from AI and copying and pasting rotations from Hekili and SimC. I think you'll never see any household-name developer do anything for PS until they can address their leadership issues and clean up the mess on their platform.
I think Silvi figured that if she convinced as many 3rd party developers as possible to develop on PS, it would boost the platform's reputation. The problem was that these developers she recruited had no influence or reputation in the WoW scene. Instead, almost all of them just created AI-generated crap rotations, minus, like, I think, 1 of them, which was okayish.
I believe the next major problem with her loyal followers, the "Simps," was that they simply repeated (parroted) everything they were told to say in an effort to influence public opinion. I think it was all quite deliberate and purposeful. The issue was with people like myself and others who have been part of the scene for two decades; this wasn't going to fool us, and we were vocal about it, and we still are.
Most people who played at a high level quickly pointed out this slop, and really, PS has become the scene meme. This was their own doing. They thought they could "
fake it till they make it," but the problem is people in this scene are privy to these types of things; they've seen it one too many times before.
The bans didn't improve the situation either, and the attempt to downplay them only made things worse, both by their loyal fans and themselves.
I think the slippery slope really started when the "ban list" was a thing on their website, and they conveniently left themselves off it. This just ruined all their credibility as a platform that was serious about the product itself.
Perhaps they will change their ways, and all of this will be a thing of the past, but I'm doubtful as long as Silvi leads that project; I believe we will continue to see that circus. Rants will go on, poorly managed rotations will remain a problem, and dismissing security events will carry on. Promising things will get done when they don't will still be common. I think the overall idea of PS was good, but it really just lacked mature leadership and a clear vision, on top of poor execution and a general disrespect for the scene as a whole.
They only saw this as a means to an end; they were never passionate about wow.
As the saying goes, "
chassez le naturel, il revient au galop."
