       Exiling banning and kicking people from games and/or major
       channels(SoR/CsB/Behh/StH) is a serious offence. The only people
       who should have positions of power within these channels and/or
       games should be mature and cool headed. Not Some raged up 13
       year old spoilt, **** of a girl having her first period all over
       her dads face.
       Exiling people who are deliberately not adding any value and
       hindering the community I have no problem with, nor should
       anyone else. For example Jaspur: He should be exiled, he does
       not like Sheep Tag, he wont play it, he has no reason to be
       anywhere near the community now he's started warbotting. If
       you're friends with him fine, he's not allowed in our channels,
       nor our games. There will be no second chance for him. He'll be
       banned until he's 18 and can think in a mature fashion(Maybe
       21).
       Exiling people like Hawkeys and Tollison is not allowed and
       should be ceased immediately. I'm not saying what they have done
       in the past is inexcusable, however indefinitely banning them is
       out of the question.
       To ban someone indefinitely for what some people would consider
       "Game ruining" without giving them a proper chance is taking one
       player away from a game that is currently populated with 50
       active Sheep Taggers.
       You are also banning upon personal grievances and to take that a
       step further you will simply kick a person for not being as good
       or not liking that person. Now this attitude is a disease in
       Sheep Tag, because what you are effectively doing is excluding
       people from games, which makes them want to leave. If they do
       leave then we have less than what we do now. Eventually there
       will be 12 sheep taggers actively playing because that's all
       that can fit into a game. Wouldn't it be better if we could have
       say 5 st parties going on at the same time?! I have another plan
       to fix this in another thread located here
  HTML http://sheeptag.createaforum.com/community-discussion/st-parties!-we-need-to-make-these-better-too/
       The following is the plan for a controlled banning system
       Game ruining can be as follows:
       1. Deliberately tking your sheep member(This can be joking
       around, but if the person you are doing it to doesn't enjoy this
       joke, he can report you).
       2. Going afk as Shepherd because you are bored. If it's for a
       legitimate reason, then ask for permission, it will be granted,
       otherwise if permission is not granted you can be reported.
       3. Leaving before fair is done, If a few Sheep haven't had a
       turn in the game, and someone has to go, that person is allowed
       to leave, provided that he tells the rest of the people in the
       game and is genuin. That person will not be allowed in the
       remake though, because that person had to leave. Otherwise if it
       isn't a scenario like that one then you can be reported.
       4. Deliberately letting Sheep pass you, if you are complaining
       the whole game and then let a sheep pass you and you have no lag
       etc.. You can be reported.
       5. Pausing during Run ST(Run Tag) intervals in hopes to kill
       said Run ster(Run tagger).
       6. Saving during Run St(Run Tag) intervals in hopes to kill said
       Run ster(Run tagger).
       ALSO NOTE THIS LIST ISN'T COMPLETE THESE ARE THE ONLY SCENARIOS
       THAT I CAN THINK OF AT THE MOMENT, SHOULD ANYONE ELSE POSE ONE
       THAT SOUNDS LOGICAL, IT WILL BE ADDED TO THIS LIST.
       Warning: If you request a ban on a player and the majority on
       the forums agree that it was insufficient to warrant a ban, the
       person who instigated this ban is now not allowed to report/bans
       for the rest of the night. So be careful before you deem it
       bannable. If there are repeat offences of this happening that
       person will not allowed to report bans for 48 hours, each time
       doubling until you are no longer capable of making any decisions
       in this area at all.
       Short term, one game bans
       From now on, no matter who you are, whether you are a leader in
       this community or Hawkeys, if you deliberately ruin a game and
       everyone agrees that you did, you're not allowed in the remake,
       A short 1 game ban.
       In order for this ban to happen the replay and time location of
       the deliberate ruin must be posted on these forums as soon as
       possible. I'm sure I can get Sidey to put together a section for
       it. You may commence the one game ban immediately(before waiting
       for people on the forum to agree) that's only provided that the
       majority in the game agree(Take screen shot of the majority
       agreeing). You must upload the replay asap.
       Midterm bans, Two days - One week bans
       In order for this to happen you need to have repeat offences of
       game ruining and ruined the game more than once and are
       currently a casual game ruiner. Once again the replay must be
       submitted and the time of the offence posted, a short 1 game ban
       will commence immediately, the rest of the ban will commence
       after the replay has been checked by a few on this forum. Or 80%
       of people who were in that game. Screen shots of the people
       agreeing must be posted here. In order to get the one game ban.
       Longterm bans Two weeks - One month
       In order for this to happen you need to have repeat offences of
       game ruining, be a casual game ruiner and have had the midterm
       bans placed upon you already with no improvements. The same
       steps of reporting these bans are to be followed from the
       midterm ban steps. Once again these bans aren't immediately
       enforced, they are only enforced after the replay has been
       submitted, only a short one game ban will be enforced until
       then.
       Additional information about the controlled system
       ALL BANNED PLAYERS AREN'T EXILED FROM THE COMMUNITY, NOR WILL
       THEY EVER BE, They still may participate in games provided that
       a: no one else is on to join the game and it's not full, if they
       are and they want to join, that spot that the banned player
       occupies is now that other players.
       b: everyone in the game agrees(100% of people agree he can play,
       this player may need to do a lot of ass licking).
       These players may also reside in channels, if they abuse their
       time in the channels then they may be kicked from said channel
       and/or banned. But they wont be booted from the channel based on
       something that happened in a game.
       Ban appeals for mid - long term bans may be heard and it's up to
       the community to judge whether you've learned your lesson.
       Anyone who kicks a person for another person should have bot
       access removed immediately.
       Anyone caught banning people without any justification once
       again will have bot access removed immediately.
       All replays/the time of the offence and the picture must be
       posted before any banning commences.
       Edit: Added Rule Scenario 5 and 6.

       Also pola, stop booting Tollison otherwise CMK will remove you
       from the bot access.
       Having said this, I have replays of you ruining games pola, I am
       willing to post them if need be, but i'd rather us just start
       off fresh.

       response: exiling and banning players from their bots is their
       choice. for example, i own hiddensand, i pay (REAL $$) for the
       bot, i am allowed to ban who i want. however, players may deem
       this "hitler" or "community wrecker". But i rarely ban players,
       and if i do, i have justification for the ban whether its a
       personal or community-involved ban. And again, its a bot i pay
       for with actual money. on the other hand, i will agree that its
       a serious offence when a player who does not own the bot
       kicks/bans players for no reason.
       i have never banned or kicked anyone from CsB channel. only
       things i have kicked from CsB is jaspur bots and ghod bots, or
       other spammers.  i may pretend to act like a raging mongo in
       game, but for the most part i am completely calm. ask anyone who
       i TS with, i am only joking 99% of the time. i am just going to
       ignore the last part of your sentence, disgusting.

       response: i exiled hawkys. i NEVER exiled tollison. also, hawkys
       very easily could have been unbanned, all i asked for was an
       apology. "sorry" is the not hard to type, especially for a
       mature person. however, hawkys is not mature and it took him
       almost two months to say "sorry" in chat, other times i asked
       for an apology he would flame like a mongoloid.

       Spoofy, note that I wholly agree that since you pay for your
       bot, you can do anything you really want with it, as this is
       essentially the same argument I made that since I was the map
       developer, I could do anything I wanted with the map.
       However, realize that your hostbot exists within a context. If
       you wish them to be viewed as "community" bots rather "personal"
       bots, then rules should apply to them. Realize that, in the
       past, bots had been monopolized many times over, and when they
       get too abusive, it is common to switch to new bots (Behh to
       WhiS, WhiS to free market, etc). You can lose more than just
       your monopoly.

       yes, i understand your point chakra, boycotting my bot is a
       simple solution to the so called "hitler" of banning 1 player.
       it would be much like boycotting your updated maps if you were
       to ignore players opinions. i will take into consideration
       making rules and i will also start to monitor players actions in
       banning/kicking, admins will be removed if they are being
       abusive.
       however, i will defend myself, and i will defend most of CsB, i
       am not afraid to refute a players comment because they have a
       "title" in this community. sheepgod made a very vague statement.
       its stereo-typing when you consider ALL CsB players to be
       hitler, or any other form of derogatory title.

       Such statement was not said in this topic. Such statement was
       said before two or three comments were deleted from my map
       development topic, where they were calling me a Hitler map
       maker, stating they would boycott the map, not telling me what
       they think is wrong and why those changes are for the bad. Not
       holding any real debate about the subject, nor the willingness
       to test it(Btw I'm not talking about JM, he brought his fears
       and attempted to tell me what they were, hence why his comments
       weren't removed.). When the community is at an all time low, to
       have this negativity only deters me. These few idiots have
       already chased away heaps of people who care about this game.
       Also from observation after seeing that you do have a monopoly
       on the game hosting market, people in csb are booting for no
       reason. CMK isn't, wasn't calling him Hitler, or you Spoofy. Was
       calling the few in CsB who were. Where these people who are in a
       power position tend to abuse said power for no valid reason.
