- Rules and Offenses
Minor Offenses
Breaking the following rules repeatedly will result in a warning level increase of 5%. Otherwise, the post will be appropriately (re)moved and no other punishment will be given.
* Unrelated (Off-Topic) Posting:
Any posts that are considered unrelated to the original topic may be moved to a new thread, a more closely related thread, or to the universal Off-Topic Thread.
* Spam Posting:
Any posts that are considered to be "spam" may be removed or moved to the universal Off-Topic Thread. "Spam" is defined as "intentionally posting repeatedly in rapid succession".
Moderate Offenses
Breaking the following rules will result in a warning level increase of 5%
* Trolling:
Trolling is defined as "posting with the intention of inciting a flame or otherwise instigate a user to break the forum rules."
* Harassment:
Harassment is defined as "persistently seeking to disturb or disrupt a player's experience on the server." This includes "call out" threads of any sort, as well as using someone's photo without their permission.
Serious Offenses
Breaking the following rules will result in a warning level increase of 15%
* Flaming:
Flaming is defined as "targeting a specific user or group of users with an offensive comment". This includes personally insulting a user or making a racist comment. Note that this includes flaming in reaction to a previous post: regardless of the cause, any violations will be punished accordingly.
Severe Offenses
Breaking the following rules will result in the user's forum account being permanently suspended. Repeat offenses will result in an IP ban, followed by in-game punishment at staff discretion.
* Punishment evasion:
Any attempts to bypass a suspension/warning level will result in the account being permanently suspended, moving any warning level on that account to the main account, with a 10% increase after being combined. This also applies to those who share accounts, so if you insist on doing it, you do so at your own risk. If someone else breaks the rules and we can't tell who is who, then all accounts will be punished.
Other
* Inappropriate Content:
Any extremely inappropriate or offensive material (i.e. pornography) will be removed. In some cases, you may post a link and include that it may not be safe for work, but posting the content itself is not acceptable. Depending on the nature of the content, punishment may range from the post being removed to a permanent ban, at the discretion of a moderator.
* General Malicious/Inappropriate Behavior:
If the administration feels that a player is demonstrating malicious or inappropriate behavior on the server, then the administration reserves the right to punish the player as they see fit. | |
