Chat Moderation "Guidelines"

Chat Moderation "Guidelines"
1) Getting around the filter, "accidently" or on purpose, (adding extra letters, alt codes ect) should be treated with with a warning as a first offense.
a) Further offense of avoiding the filter should result in, explaining what they did wrong and a mute. This will have to be the Chat Mods judgment.
2) Logging an alternate character to avoid a mute, should not be allowed. This should follow with a mute on that alt character. In addition depending upon the situation, this may prolong the current mute on the original character, if attempted multiple times.
3) Capital letters, this isn't a huge issue, but should be warned a few times. However is still grounds for a mute if repeated.
4) Spamming, this should be held in between harassment and capital letters, but should follow loosely the same rules for #3.
5) Overall harassment, to another player or Chat Mod, just shouldn't be tolerated. One warning should suffice, then a mute to the main players involved if the warning had no effect.

To Chat Mods, you have been given this power to help the game, not to wave your "big stick" around. Please remember that.

Feel free to add or remove whatever you all see fit, this was just a starting point, since nobody else has had the time to put together a list.
