Note to players: Admins abusing their rights should be reported in the forums immediately with a demo. If you believe an admin is abusing his powers, please report that individual here.
Note to admins: If there is a general consensus (3 or more admins), you are allowed to operate with "temp" or "unwritten" rules for a short period of time. (Approx one week). During that time, you must bring that rule to our attention so that we can make it official. It's to protect you guys from frivolous abuse threads and help flex your ban hammer.
