Spacepanther Posted April 28, 2015 Report Share Posted April 28, 2015 Today it was brought to our staff meeting: Staff may not use special spells on players, so if a staff member is using special, non-class or non-generic, spells on players in an abusive matter please address it by reporting it in the Report Player/GM forum section.Secondly, with the new content recently added, it has come to our attention that some newer rules may need to be released to the public to avoid any confusion. IceCold-WoW has a general rules list here, which do apply, but there are special rules related to recent events and content. Please read the below CAREFULLY.As a general rule, GRIEFING players or staff is now going to be our general punishable offense.Define it:Player/Staff offending another player/staff to an excessive extent, to which the person is feeling uncomfortable, damaged or unsafe.Examples:This could be unavoidable harassment, forced targetting, or other forms of intentional damage to a player's ability to play without negativity. Be aware, stealing the tag of creatures in farming zones, just for the shear pleasure of taking something from someone else is Griefing. Camping may be considered harassment, if it is specific to one person for a prolonged period. Reports with screenshots are always preferred for this kind of behavior.The punishments for Griefing include two categories:- Physical Grief - First Offence: 30 minute Character Ban Second Offence: 2 hour Account Ban Third Offence: 12 hour Account Ban Fourth Offence: 24 hour Account Ban Last Stage: 7 day Account Ban (the last stage will be the same punishment for every offence after 4 offences)- Verbal Grief - First Offence: 30 minute Mute Second Offence: 2 hour Mute Third Offence: 12 hour Account Ban Fourth Offence: 24 hour Account Ban Last Stage: 7 day Account Ban (the last stage will be the same punishment for every offence after 4 offences)I was asked to address sniping in the arena. The matter was discussed and sniping is reportable, and punishable as an unfair advantage over other players. Here is an escalation of the punishments:- Sniping - First Offence: Warning and/or Kick Second Offence: 30 minutes Character Ban Third Offence: 2 hour Character Ban Fourth Offence: 12 hour Character Ban Last Stage: 24 hour Character Ban (account ban may be considered) (the last stage will be the same punishment for every offence after 4 offences)Click here to view the article EkbergFex, Nightcorez and Brandongaw 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
