    Ive seen multiple bans go for sprays and personally almost been banned for a spray i got permission for, and apparently admins wanted to ban me without even asking to remove it first, @RFcoil asked me and I removed it no problem. His spray is titties bouncing for reference. Krus got banned by lightning? i believe for his almost pornographic funny sprays, but theres not much off a difference? There, when possible should be a dialouge between the Staff and the person about the spray before a instant ban, WHICH IS LONGER THAN MASS RDM? Idk man, the line for what qualifies is already blurry, furry, pornstar, and other sprays get by fine. Then some seemingly arbitralily get called out and enforced with no warning to the player to remove it and a harsh punishment is inflicted for something which ultimately has 0 gameplay effect.

    Basically theres just got to be a better and clearer line, or for christ sake reach out before taking someone off the servers for 2+ weeks

    Krus has never been Banned for Pornsprays, he may have been warned tho I wouldnt know about that.
    I for one had a chat about his sprays with him the other day, explaining that its under discussion if we should continue to allow those sprays as they are (while censored to a degree) depicting sexual activity. Even tho they are insider jokes betwee the players using them. They are mildy disturbing to some players (and not because its gay porn). I made him aware that things around those sprays may change in the future, so he would be aware just in case.

    This would be the ban you are reffering to and it seem like Wii already had been warned on a previous day about using those sprays. So the claim of not enough Dialogue between staff and the people using sprays are simply incorrect.
    If the sprays are borderline breaking the rules we never ban right away, unless they have had similiar warnings before.

    We only straight ban without warning if the spray directly violates the rules without being Borderline

    Oh it was Wii and not KRUS, lightning instant banned him that day, 0 warning. And again on previous warnings, how can those warnings actually mean anything in the sea of jiggling tits and sexualized furries we already play with. Although KRUS wasnt banned his sprays serve as a good example. Thats gay porn, like straight up. Its hilarious and im all for it but with things like that,

    1.
    Porn is any image/video depicting sexual activity, nudity, sex toys/objects, or sexual substances.
    id argue krus' depicts sexual acts

    3. Disturbing content is content that is graphic or unsettling, this includes content that sexualizes animals.
    while we are at it this guy seems never enforced

    4. Disclaimer: Up to the interpretation of the staff member issuing the ban.
    I see this, recognize it, and hate it,
     
  5. Why are all the sprays being banned are the ones with the dudes. come on guys we get it you're anti gay but just let us have fun.

    How 'bout we change the punishment into a warn and every time you do a new spray you should be warned again. excessive warns will result in the current ban system


    or just make an option to mark your sprays NSFW in !spray and have an option to turn NSFW sprays off

    Once my spray was a dildo thrown onto a football field. A mod told me to change it but it took awhile to do because I was, you know, playing the game. So he removed it himself with *mod powers.* No ban, I didn't get my spray privileges revoked.
    Obviously a dildo isn't as bad as some other sprays I've seen but I'd like to think this is proper protocol for bad sprays. Am I wrong?

    The problem is that everything is crazily subjective. That is why I tried to cut right through the bullshit. Here is a handy dandy graphic that will help you.

    Didnt know they could do this, wow, remove the spray and tell the player and if they put it back weve got a problem. How is this not the standard protocol already?

    Cash I staff the proper way Banned VIP

    If it's pornographic, it's a ban

    If it's borderline/something like a sex toy, it typically gets removed & warned

    Bruh just don't post anything sexual as your spray and your good to go. What's the point of posting borderline porn? Literally playing with fire for no reason

    - "If you have to ask, don't use it" is Jabba's favorite quote.

    From feedback I've gotten from the Mod/Admin team, there will be no clear line. They will determine whether a spray is appropriate or not. Apparently, it's too much for them to do it? Idk. I've tried pursuing this in the past and it didn't end well for me. Trust me when I say it's not worth looking at this issue, or at least not with this current administration.

    I honestly don't see the difficulty in choosing an appropriate spray-- it's not rocket science. What Jabba told you is easily the best way to determine whether or not you should use a spray. If your spray is so borderline that you can't tell whether or not it's appropriate, don't use it. MEHEEZY put it nicely:
    If we find something to be somewhat disturbing or maybe borderline we will ask the player to change their spray before banning them. If their spray is outright porn, gore, etc. then we will just ban them. Our MOTD clearly states that porn, gore, and disturbing content are punishable.

    My apologies. I guess it was just the passive-aggressive tone that made me think you unsure about the rules.
