Well, it's back in action after a couple month-long absence. Not that we think you all are a bunch of rule breaking bandits, but we thought it would just be a nice addition right now. However, with the addition of the report system comes a level of added responsibility for you guys, the members. Reports take a fair bit of time to go through and assess for moderators and administrators. Because of that, we have to be kind of strong on cases of abuse of it. Will it get you banned if you abuse it once? No. But, there are other kinds of reprimanding that can be handed down in cases of abuse. For example, the privilege of reporting can be revoked for individual members. Hence, I think that a different system of consequences can be set up dealing with abuse of the reporting system. Also, since you cannot "unintentionally" abuse the system, we have to take that into consideration too.

1 abuse- 1 verbal warning.
2 abuses- 1 implemented warning.
3 abuses- 2 implemented warnings and revoking of reporting privileges for 2 weeks.
4 abuses- Two implemented warnings and revoking of reporting privileges for 6 weeks.
5 abuses- Three implemented warnings and revoking of reporting privleges for 18 weeks.
6 abuses- Four implemented warnings and revoking of reporting privleges for 36 weeks.
7 abuses- Immediate ban.

Keep in mind if continued abuse happens, we will disable the system again entirely. But I doubt that will have to happen.

It is our hope that the reinstatement of this system will keep the forum as an even more enjoyable experience.

CURRENT SETTINGS:

-Available for all members.
-Ability to report yourself: ENABLED
-Ability to edit reports: ENABLED.

Thanks for posting this Ein. Youre like our official announcer

Report ourselfs option? Naw dawg.

Just dont use it then

If you report yourself for something you did accidentally, you won't be punished for it. Otherwise, you run the risk of getting a verbal warning.

Or a real warning if it is a bad offense

I'm talking like double post. Something you can't do unintentionally, we won't give you a break on it at all. This is NOT a system to get out of doing stuff you're not supposed to do. You can only use this to aid the staff.
