About Penalty Points:
Sometimes, some users choose to, either ignore the rules or choose not to read the guild's specific rules. This makes other users get frustrated when they are either interrupted or confronted with the situation of someone not following the rules. That is why, in an effort to keep the guild up and running, I decided to add the Penalty Points system.
How it works:
It's pretty simple. There are actions that are not allowed in the guild and will not be tolerated, whereas there are others that are simply annoying or frustrated to be confronted with. Whenever a user fails to follow the rules of the guild, the ToS of Gaia Onlline or simply becomes obnoxious, the user's name is written in the section bellow and a penalty point is given to the user.
What Happens Now?:
Just because you're in the list doesn't mean you will get banned. You will, however, be put on a type of probation to evaluate your behavior in the guild. You get three strikes. Fail to abide by the rules of the community three times and you will be kicked out of the guild.
Can I be Taken Out of the List:
Being in the list is not supposed to be an eternal prison; it's more like detention. If users abide by the rules and behave accordingly in their time in probation, his/her penalties will be forgiven. However, failure to abide by the rules will mean total expulsion and ban from the guild.
Enforcers:
Even though there are people in charge of the discipline in the guild, anyone can participate in making this community be tidy and frustration free. If there's anyone whom you feel needs to be put in detention, send any of the crew members posted below or to me explaining the situation and a link to the conflicting post.
Official Enforcers:
Alecks Heathez [GM]
cloudstrifehammy [Forum Admin]
Kero Beah [Graphic Artist, Discipline Hitman]
My Desire:
My wishes are that no one falls in this list and that we are able to use this guild in harmony, without having to come to these strategies for crowd control. blaugh
