I dont get this. I remember this being the golden rule for being ARF or ARC back in the day. You dont pull out your RPS unless you intend on firing it. This was routinely beat into your head so you understood it. Whatever happened to this standard.
This Ban Appeal is a massive teachable moment, We should be stricter on fucking around. we need to bring back proper etiquette for pulling out weapons.
Now id be a massive hypocrite if I didnt +1 this. Arroyo is a long time member, I dont personally believe he did this in a malicious way. But we just had my ban appeal completely unanimous (besides the shitposters) saying that it was an accident and my ban was too harsh, yet here we are again and suddenly people are changing their opinion? I got 24 hours, I deserved the 24 hours for not taking enough care and plus I caused a massive headache behind the scenes. But 5 Days? Seriously? I feel my ban is no different to this situation.
This is Staff taking the max ban length and assigning it to every situation. The punishment guidelines say UP TO 5 DAYS, Why is an accidental MassRDM, who fucked around getting the same length as someone who would maliciously Mass RDM in the effort to cause an incident. Either Staff need to have their guidelines checked at or something needs to be done to the guidelines so that its not set to the maxinum ban length every time.
The guy fucked around, found out and got shit on for it. 48 Hour Ban at most. Let them man free.
