Rules/DP

Violations are judged on a case-by-case basis with less serious cases receiving less serious punishments. 

Verbal Warning

 * In the vast majority of cases, users will receive a verbal warning for breaking a rule.
 * Verbal warnings don't stick and act as a reminder for the user to straighten up their behaviour.

Written Warning

 * Users who continue to act up will receive a written warning from a staff member.
 * A post will be made to your message wall and locked to serve as public record.
 * Written warnings will be dissolved after 60 days of good behaviour.

24 Hour Ban

 * Users who continue to act up will receive a 24 hour ban from a staff member.
 * 24 hour bans will be used as the first line of defence, in most cases.

24+ Hour Bans
 Bans greater than 24 hours in length can be appealed through this form.  ''Any user who attempts to subvert his suspension will receive a permanent ban. All judgements are made at the discretion of attending staff.''
 * If deemed necessary, bans greater than 24 hours will be handed out as punishment.
 * All 24hr+ bans are site wide and generally range from 2 - 7 days in length.
 * In some extreme cases, serial offenders will receive a permanent ban.
