How come proof of the player leaving with staff online isn't required when a player appeals? Seems lots of staff just post the RDM reports and decline the appeal, which doesn't really show whether or not the player left prior to staff joining the server.
Proof of the player leaving is required for appeals sometimes you don’t need the original report but most of the time we do.
Bottom line: It is required. Can't prove that someone RDM and Left without proving both the RDM part and the Leave part. If someone neglects to include this information you may want to speak to them about it or go to their admin. In certain cases it may not be necessary to prove that the player left as he may actually admit to it in the appeal though, so make sure you've got the full context before you go wasting anybodies time. Cheers!
