All valid points.....and here are some responses:
Quote:If a member -
1) name calls, abuses, swears (or deliberately changes words to avoid the forum "spellchecker), flames, makes racial slurs or uses detailed personal information against another member (or if that member keeps taking a thread completely off topic in a spamming or trolling manner), then, that member should get a warning or a 1,2 or 3 Day suspension or longer, depending on the severity of the issues.
The thrust is valid. Maybe that needs to be broken down into the components, as some may be less acceptable than others.
Quote:Should any member, be suspended/banned & subsequently be involved in any other events over the ensuing 12 months, then the next event would attract a 7 Day or longer penalty, depending on the severity of the issues and any further infringements would then automatically attract one of various longer bans (tba).
Again, no issue from me in principle. The numbers are obviously by way of example only, and maybe left to GMod discretion.
Quote:However, should any member continue to infringe the rules, then a permanent ban should be reviewed.
No issue.
Quote:2) Any member posting a serious life threatening or harm threatening messages to any member, then that user will be banned immediately & permanently.
Maybe a 'strike one,' first.
Quote:3) There will be no sock/s-puppet/s (Any person using more than one account to post). You will get ONE warning, if caught using a sock puppet, to delete the sock/s-puppet/s, then (if the member does not act) Moderators will permanently ban both the original member & the sock/s-puppet/s!
No issue.
