Announcement: Word Filter

[Python523]

As many of you are probably aware of, Stefan has introduced a new word filtering system. The sole purpose of this system is to prevent harassment. It is unfortunate that we must have a system like this, since I truely believe each and every human is capable of knowing not to harass people, but I guess I either was wrong or people tend to ignore that thought in their head. This system is working good, but what I don't like seeing is people testing the system. Tseng and I have already temp. banned about two people for excessive swearing, which shouldn't be happening. This post is being posted as an awareness for the common people. I don't want to ban any people for 'testing the system', it works, don't swear, don't get in trouble, it's as simple as that.

1st warning for exessive swearing: 1-5 days, depending on how extreme
2nd warning : 1 - 2 weeks, again; depending on how extreme
3rd warning : permanent ban

However, even though I have posted this, if we, the people who keep the server clean by acting as staff, interpret a case to be so extreme that they need to jump to the 2nd or 3rd warning level instead of the 1st, we will not hesitate to ban for a longer period of time or ban permanently. Again, I wish such a system didn't have to exist, but I think this is for the best, and I hope we can help keep this game cleaner.
