    PUNISHMENT

    I. Kicks
    Should be given out to players to break the rules and disrupt the game. A verbal and admin say warring should be given out in advanced of a kick.
    1) If players fail to respond within a reasonable time frame they should be kicked for violation of any of the following
    II.2
    III
    III.1
    IV
    IV.2
    V
    VII
    VIII
    IX
    X
    XI
    XII
    XIII.2
    2) The following can be upgraded directly to a "short" temp ban with the discretion of the ADMIN. Remember that the player should still be warned before any ban or kick is issued.
    II.2
    III.1
    IV.2
    V
    X
    XI
    XII
    XIII.2
    II. Temp bans
    Should be given out to players who have a thick skull and need to be taught a lesson. Should not be given for longer than 7 days, this is the maximum unless the user has a history of problems.
    1) Violation of any of the following gets instant temp ban
    III.5 -With demo of proof
    IV.2
    V.2.B.a
    VII.2
    VII.3.C
    VIII.3
    XIII.1.C
    XIII.2.A,B,C.a
    2) Violation of any of the following after the player has been kicked (or the rules bypass are met) for preforming said violation. Note that instant bypasses should not be longer than an hour or so. Also remember that the player should have been clearly warned before the issue of said ban.
    II.2
    III
    IV.2
    V
    VI
    VII
    VIII
    IX
    X
    XI
    XII
    III. Perma bans
    This is the highest punishment a player can receive. It can only be granted by a relatively small number of Upper Level Admins. Perma bans usually require a demo but always require that the player in question, beyond a reasonable doubt, committed an offense against the server and or community. Like any ban these can be applied but require a 2/3 majority vote from ALL upper level admins. If the ban appeal is denied it can NEVER be made again.
    1) Violation of the following can result in perma ban without a demo. As long as there is substantial witnesses and physical log evidence
    I.1
    I.3
    II.1
    V.2.B.c
    IX.3
    2) Violation of the following when proved by demo
    I
    II
    III.5 -Must have received an approved temp ban first
    V.2.A
    V.2.B.c
    XIII.1.A
    XIII.1.B
    XIII.1.C.a
    -REFERENCE

    I. How rules are referenced
    Rules are referenced according to their number and letter. When referring to a given rule any sub sections to the number referenced are considered part of the object being discussed. Below are examples
    V.2.A.a -Refers only to section a of A of 2 of rule V. any any subsections

    V.2.A.b.i -Refers only to section i of the sections above it
    II. Understanding bypasses
    Some rules allow for bypasses, this means that under some circumstances one type of punishment can be bypassed and a more sever one can be issued. For example violations of some rules may allow admins to skip a kick and go to a predesignated ban length instead. Another example would be bypassing a mute for a kick. Punishments that can be bypassed have a section stating what rule violations allow for bypasses. It is up to an admin to decide if they want to skip to a more severe punishment. Think of bypasses as an "or" statement for admins, when a user breaks a given rule they can punish with "this" or if it is on the bypass list they can punish with "something more severe"
    III. Revisions
    The rules are never totally set in stone, there are always people finding new unimaginable ways to ruin peoples fun. In addition sometimes it is necessary to spell out in stone some things that are highly contested to make it dead clear. Revisions will follow a X.x format and X will always change the version after x=9. x also starts at 0 and X starts at 1. The current revision is listed at the top of the post on the right hand corner and in the topic title.

  2. Default

    Ok so as you see I have made an entire official rules list for all servers and a simple punishment system to follow for enforcing them. These rules are dynamic and should and can be discussed here as well as the punishment system. Also if you see any errors please post so that they can be corrected. I hope that this topic will help out players and admins alike by making everything as clear as possible while still having rules broad enough to allow for unknowns to be accounted for.

  6. Default

    Simple logic:

    (people that like sprays of gay guys) < (people that like sprays of lesbian) > (people that do not use the internet) > (woman that would be offended enough to care)



  7. Default

    mouahahah...well done...that explanation would have help some guys in high school to understand logic 101!!! ahahah

    Peace

  8. Default

    Another GG Rule:

    No helping someone on the other team win:
    examples, telling them where you are so they can shoot you, knife you, or Grenade you.


    Another admin rule:

    No trading teams during a round. Either yourself or someone else.(yes that has happened, i wont name the admin cause i told him its common sense not to do that)

    And if that isnt clear, i'm not talking about pressing m then a new team. I'm talking about using the admin command and switch your team instantly. So you can basically spawn, change team, and kill everyone in the spawn.

  9. Default

    Uh, is there a rule that somebody can't have a blank or unnamed as a nick?

  10. Default
