#5: Non-English in Main/Team.Only one occurrence of non-english, even 2 lines in main/team are not enough serious to be reported. Players having a full conversation in public chats and when there isn't any staff online can be reported to be muted accordingly.
first resource of mine was warning and messaging them privately to let them realize their mistake rather than increasing my personal record of punishments
harm the overall player count
#A is for speaking non-English in an English only chat. Not sure if the punishment is valid or not since I can see only one trivial line, but it can always be appealed.I don't think this should be a necessity, since sometimes players try to troll us by misusing a chat on purpose just to annoy us. In these type of cases it'd be stupid to verbally warn them first, so they can do it again a few hours later.A simple example of misuse of contact admin that I don't want to be forced to verbally warn for before issuing the punishment:18:32:38 <&CIT-Bot> xC|InVerSioN: Arran my ping 70 why I got ping spike?18:33:11 <&CIT-Bot> nagy: Stop downloading xnxx
Considering we already have a low player count I think it's important to make sure every staff have some patience and leniency with punishments (not saying they don't)

The warning should be optional if we want this to be implemented, otherwise, they'll just break rules and then > unfairness case > UC - He didn't warn me.This is exactly what I'm talking about. They'll start breaking the rules just because they know we MUST warn them first. If it's optional, then it'll be much better.
M) When it comes to minor offenses, Staff members must warn the offenders before issuing a punishment.
M) When it comes to minor offenses, Staff members must warn the offenders before issuing a punishment as long as there's no obvious intention to disrupt or troll.
Changed from:To:That should help enough for both you Staff members who must issue punishments on idiots who intent to troll just like in the example provided by Ptole, and regular players who spot Staff members being too harsh on players over trivial offenses.

This is what happens when I dont delete your "usual" quotes. Just check topic and notice how it has full of negativity, hate and toxic posts (except some funny ones. Respect to you). You only spreat anger against PAM and Staff team. I feel so sorry that you've failed in life.
Indeed the staff rushed into punishing the guy, but1. You forgot what happens when the person can't understand the warning and will just end muted anyway, what then? Where are the Guides, ICM, Country Players, to warn the guy and explain him? Guides in particular that want to claim to help server grow with new players yet these cases are blindly left behind.2. Rules are translated, literally when entering server you have a message like "PRESS F1 FOR RULES AND USEFUL INFORMATION" without counting adverts and such.3. We changed ingame rules not so long ago to be specific and clear, yet staff has still to interpret then and change them based on "leniency" only to get blamed by players for not doing a proper job. So if this is the case, my guess is the change was just petty and useless.I've tagged the post [Arran] so he can get around this quickly.

Rephrased: We'll just continue punishing for trivial stuff, and then we'll let you waste your time even more by letting you make an appeal on the forum, which by the time the appeal gets responded to, your punishment time would've most likely already been served, meanwhile the staff who issued the punishment goes on regularly without repercussions. (Especially if it's a newer player, then he also has to create a forum account yet, and if he doesn't speak English, has to find someone to help him translate, and that's even if he knows about the appeal system in the first place...)This is exactly the issue. So therefore, I agree with this suggestion, upvoting, we need more leniency.
