Hello Tengaged,
We have been making a few subtle changes to the rules if you have not noticed, but wanted to bring your attention to a complete change of a current rule. The following will take effect immediately:
5. Serious Harassment. (Updated 8/21/2015)
The definition of harass:
1. to disturb persistently; torment, as with troubles or cares; bother continually; pester; persecute.
The definition of torment:
1. to afflict with GREAT bodily or mental suffering; pain:
We will no longer accept reports of harassment when you have argued or are arguing with a user. We will no longer tell other users to leave you alone and allow you to sit there harassing them knowing they can not say anything. Serious harassment, or bullying, will not be permitted on this site, however if you are just attempting to get someone banned, it is very possible that you will receive the ban. This is a Big Brother website, drama is expected and will not be punished. If you are truly being "tormented" please contact us and we will handle the situation, but if you are just having an argument with another user because you don't like what they did in a game, you don't like them or vice versa, then log off for an hour and it will stop.
If a single user is receiving serious harassment or bullying from a group of people in a game or on the blogs page, there will be no warning issued, that group will immediately receive anywhere from a blacklist to a ban depending on the seriousness of the harassment. All other SERIOUS harassment will result in a warning for first offense.
If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to mail us and we will answer as soon as possible.
