Code of Apolyton

[Alexander I]

In light of recent behavior on the Forums, I recommend that the co-owners/mods follow Hammurabi's example and establish a visible and viable Code of Laws/Conduct for standardization's sake. While it is a sad thing that such actions should have to be taken, IMHO I feel it (or something similar) is currently necessary.

Violations Could Include:
Trolling outside the OT
Spamming
Purposefully trying to get on the Mods' Nerves
Other inappropriate behavior

Punishments Could Include:
Warnings
Restrictions
Bans
Perma-bans

Note: I am being completely serious here.

I thought Ming enjoyed us getting on his nerves.

And I've only been on the forums two months less than you yourself, Adagio.

I guess maybe I just want harder crackdowns so the forums don't descend into utter madness.

It's not one. We've had dozens.

Well, but one at a time.

Maybe we should institute a Department of Apolyton Security, too! And have an "Enforcement Czar." OMG we need a colour-coded "Trolling Alert" system!!! And Teh PolyPatriot Act!!!! CAN-SPAM 2007!!

It's a lose lose situation for us... we crack down hard and everybody call's us nazi's... If we don't, I guess "madness" will soon fall upon us

We try to place warnings and hand out punishments as needed. If you see something you don't like, feel free to PM a mod so that they can judge whether action needs to be taken.

It's not just about that thread. It's about people's attitude over all. We're slowly becoming Apolytroll.

[DrSpike]

I think that is an exaggeration.
