New ban (limitation) system

We are opening a new ban system, the old one was inflexible and was lacking in functionality and was not aimed to educate users.

What’s new:

  • 3 types of limitation: full ban, limitation to edit map, limitation to send messages and write
    in the forum
  • Different ban length: 6 hours, 1 day, 1 week, 1 month, permanent ban
  • Single Advanced User may apply a ban
  • Detailed information about every ban is stored in history and available for viewing
  • User receives information message with the details of his ban/unban.
  • Only advanced users can see who initiated the ban.

All information about the new banning system can be found at banning guidelines. We will monitor the use of new banning system closely. If necessary, we will update the banning system and guidelines.
