[Kaimetsu]

Tifa: You attacked him by suggesting that he disrespects the rules and follows outlandish beliefs (obviously they were exaggerated, but they're offensive nonetheless).

Geno: Although she threw the first punch, it was hardly a strong one. Laugh it off, don't retaliate.

Moon Goddess: It's interesting to see that you're throwing yourself behind Seara's cause despite the fact that her thread technically breaks the rules. Obviously you have two sets of standards, but I wonder: Exactly what condition separates them? Does the thread starter need to be female to gain immunity from the rules? Is it an age thing? Or maybe it's unique to threads about sexual harrassment? Please, enlighten me.

Everybody else: If I were in charge, I would remove this Signas guy from all staff positions and permanently ban him from the server. But - and this is important - not simply because his choice of harrassment was sexual in nature. I don't believe that his crude words harmed Seara in any significant way. Anybody who can't endure the childish rantings of belligerent children should lock themselves away from the internet, because as sad a fact as it is, they make up the majority of its population.

So, yes, he should be punished. The fact that he resorted to sexual harrassment should increase the severity of his punishment, but not for the ridiculous reason that his words were any more harmful. No, Seara has enough life experience to be able to take that kind of impotent jeering. The actual reason is that he took the insults as far as he could. He used sexual content because he thought that it would strengthen his attacks. Through that willingness to ignore social standards and hold nothing back, he showed everybody that he was not suitable to hold a staff position, and that he could not function as a respectable player.

This isn't about justice. It's about the removal of unwanted elements.
