Punishments
Infractions of the rules are punished in different ways according to their severity. We have the power to give: 1) A warning.
2) A temporary ban the length of which is determined by the Staff-member handling your case. This type of ban is not appealable.
3) A permanent ban. This ban is appealable. Make a post in the Ban Appeal-section if you think your ban was unjust.
4) A Demotion. Donators can be stripped off their rank and privileges if they abuse them.
(Not understanding the rules is not an excuse for breaking them)
