too strict rules?

Hey again, iluvhotmoms.

I agree with what iZyro has said. Disrespect to me seems way too lenient. Especially if it's witnessed by a staff member. Like they're disrespecting another user and they only get a warning and then a 30-minute mute if they do it again? I think for disrespect it should be an instant mute if it's witnessed by a staff member. Don't change the severity of the offence just remove the required warning if witnessed.

Explicit conversation I feel is a fair punishment. For the fifth offence for a severity two mute, I do believe is a long time (two weeks) but it's the player's fault if they've been muted 4 times already for a severity two chat offence. Everything you type in chat is your responsibility. You cannot blame anyone but yourself if you are muted, especially if you're aware of the rules on the server.

Now iZyro and Ankh have both said that the rules need more specific definitions for punishable offences. There are plenty of rules (mainly chat offences) that don't have clear examples. Most of the time it's up to the staff member to decide whether or not that would be considered punishable. So when you say the same thing in two different sub-servers with two different staff, one may punish you and one may not. You'd be quite surprised how often staff would ask for second opinions on things players would say in chat. I'm sure they still do today. If there were more clear definitions and examples for punishable offences. I think the clarity of this would both benefit players and staff members.

Thanks, Layne.

I Don't think that disrespect punishments are too lenient, I got muted for saying "Fuck you", which I think should not be a punishable offence, but I guess other people might think otherwise.

In my opinion I don't believe the rules are that strict, although they can be annoying at times, they aren't that strict and many staff members will unmute if you didn't mean something in the way you have been muted for. Many staff members are very lenient on the rules and will let most people off with verbals or chat warnings, they are simple rules to follow and most of the times are pretty easy to remeber, /blacklistcheck <word> can tell you if you can say a certain word or not, and its very easy to not break the rules, just dont go overboard and you should be good! -1 Have a great day my friend!
