Complaint At least commit to it

[Bananabits111]

Did either of you read the conversation in question or are you just upset at the idea of it?

Once someone has been warned, they need to acknowledge the warning. Regardless of what they say, what i care about is if the behavior continues. If they say earnestly say they're going to stop, but then don't stop, the actions are what matter.  If, in the moment, they lie about stopping, but then never do it again, that's a win for me.

I am a human being.

Edit: Not to mention, me getting exasperated in a single conversation is not policy. It is a thing that was said in a single conversation, after 13 grueling minutes of someone arguing something that merely needed a 10 second acknowledgement.

I honestly have no idea why you're so stuck on this, when the context makes this obvious and you're basically getting mad over literal nothingness.

If you care so little about what players say, you might as well either tell players that what they're doing is wrong and leave them alone, or ban them right away. There was no need to encourage them to lie.

Enforcement of the rules ultimately comes down to the discretion of the administrator handling the case.

We do not have hard-set guidelines for ban lengths or allowable warnings for offenses. Instead, we opt to allow staff to use their judgement based on the context of the situation, the histories of those involved, and our interactions over ahelp chat.

This does mean accepting a degree of inconsistency with the handling of punishments, but it allows staff greater agency to handle rule breakers autonomously. Of course, should a player feel that an admin's decision against them is egregiously out of scale with what transpired, they can submit a complaint/appeal to have others weigh in.

You guys are a team. Teams should be unified. At the very least, you should have hard guidelines that you follow for punishments. And I bet that if you showed the guidelines next to the rules in the wiki, there'd be a lot less confusion and complaining.

not an admin, but doesn't it literally say in the riles NOT to lie to the admins? It says that pretty clearly

yeah it says in big capital letters:

"take the time to talk to them about it and answer their questions HONESTLY. We have multiple ways of telling if you are lying about stuff, and if we can't trust what you're saying, there's no point to talking so we're probably going to have to reach for the banhammer. "

Tell that to Ursula
