Additional Clarification

Space Law is to be used as a guideline similar to this policy, however if something is egregious enough (like a 20 minute timer for trespassing) it is justification for OOC admin intervention.

Modifiers

Valid Rule Clarification No more than a warning should be given to a player that justifies the offense with a reasonably cited active rule clarification, even if it is not up to date with current rules.

Self report

Reduce to warning. Applies to any offense where the player reports themselves as long as the offense was unlikely to be identified otherwise.

New player

If there is no prior warning for the same issue, and if the minimum suggestion is not an indefinite ban, reduce to warning at admin discretion and instruct to read the rules.

Caught before round effects

If there are no earlier similar issues, any issue caught before it affects the round and other players can be reduced to a warning at admin discretion.

Admin intervention

Any reduction, including to nothing, may be applied for any offense which is plausibly the result of admin intervention.

Repeat game bans

A multiplier equal to 1 plus the number of game bans in the last 6 months which resulted from offenses from other grouping categories.

Metagrudging

2x multiplier if the offense is the result of metagrudging by the offender.

Prior indefinite ban

7d can be added to the total game ban length if the player has had any prior indefinite ban in the last 6 months. Excluding bans used only for contact and ones where they were found to be not at fault.

Round removal

2x multiplier for any offense which results in someone being permanently removed from a round, including an attempt to do so and actions likely to result in permanent round removal.

Lying in ahelp

24h + 3x multiplier if the offender maliciously lies in the ahelp. You should be certain that they have lied. The multiplier is applied after the 24h addition is made. Offender is Command/Security Apply a roleban that is twice the length of the ban.

Intentional rule breaking

Indefinite ban. Includes any rule breaking where the player intentionally breaks a rule knowing they are breaking a rule, knowing they will get banned, or claims to not care if they get banned. Any reasonably clear rule violation can be presumed to be intentional if the player was told to read the rules in the last 12 hours.

Role specific

Any issue that is likely to be prevented by a role ban should include a role ban if a game ban is applied. The role ban can be applied in addition to or as an alternative to the suggested game ban. Game ban suggestions can be converted to role ban suggestion times by doubling the time.

Ban request/demand

Any player who demands or requests a ban can be banned indefinitely.

Leaving during an Ahelp

Indefinite appeal ban
