Lack of communication between staff and players.

Heya,

Sorry to post twice on the forums within 24 hours of each other, but I felt this was necessary.
Following on from my last post, my appeal to be unbanned was denied because it was still seen as 'account grinding'. However, I think this punishment could easily be avoided if there was a bit more communication between staff and players. Obviously, in an emergency situation i.e. exploiting or griefing the server, there isn't really time to go over the rules with a player but in the type of situation I was in, it could have been done.

(For anyone who doesn't know what my situation was, I was banned for 'account grinding' when I was just killing a guy in pvp who kept doing /back)

I didn't know that this was a punishable action and if I was told in advance, I would have stopped. In the punishment appeal reply, it states: ''The rule Account Grinding doesn't only mean killing your own alt, it works towards other players as well. You killed another player over and over again, gaining stats from it, gaining money from it the rule states that all players involved in it will get punished.'' After reading the rules thoroughly, I can confirm that they only say: ''User logs in with an alternate account and kills it repeatedly to gain money on KitPvP.''


But my main point here isn't to complain about what the rules do and dont say, its to advise staff to communicate with players BEFORE a ban/mute happens, to warn them about what they are doing. If they carry on, fair enough, its their problem because they didn't listen to staff advice. Some staff already do this, and it does help alot. I know that players should read the rules before they start playing but its sometimes easy to forget what is and isn't allowed.

But this is only my opinion.


Thank you for reading,

Minnie
