I'm all for a warning system as well, and since I can't post to my own post i'll do it here.
"If you get a kick or ban, then you deserved it for -sure-. We dont HAVE to warn, no other pro game does this too. If their System sees an issue it will be dealt with harsh. You have everything free if you stay within the rules, end of story."
I really do not agree with this statement at all from Tigg the admin. So pretty much if a Mod doesn't like you or you've done something to piss them off like get too cuddly with his girl etc they can ban you for no reason?! If they have a bad day they can ban you for no reason..just cuz? With a warning system in check the admin or whoever will know exactly why this person was banned/kicked or whatever, if more questions arise then you can send in an appeal to challenge your banishment. What happens when a certain Mod ban's people for no reason but says 'o they were using bad language' how is anyone to know different if we don't post it here? What if everyone around this person who got banned did not witness what the moderator says they did?
All this comes down to is personal judgement. Its the Administrators job to make sure they have good moral and ethical people as moderators and not some over emotional teen etc...what are the age limits for being a moderator/admin...is there one at all?
Trust me i love playing this game but I dont want to look over my shoulder for big brother evertime i go to say something..if this game is really that strict..then label it as such...RATED E FOR EVERYONE, is there a rating system at all?
I'm all for a warning system as well as a 'reason you were banned' system which states..'you have two days to appeal your ban'
example
Kicked for language! 2 more times results in a 3 day ban...this would stay on record and be reset every week. Giving you 3 times to slip up
Kicked for harassment! 1 more time results in a 5 day ban...again restes every week
repeat offenders will be notified with a harsh waring: "in viewing your account we have noticed you have been kicked from the game and banned several times for harsh language and harrassment, we are banning you for three weeks. Please feel free to appeal this banishment with the moderators at >>>>>>>>>>. After your three week banishment if you are banned for any other reason you will be banned permanently."
anyway just my thoughts
