A quote by Aithòs on the new punishment system

"The problem here isn't the speed of the feedback at all... The problem is that there is no clearly defined, definitive set of rules for people to follow. You are essentially creating the worlds largest lynch mob, where the overwhelming majority of people in charge of punishments are teenagers who aren't mature enough to make those kinds of decisions on their own. Part of the problem is that it's far too easy to report, people don't consider reporting a big deal (on either side: reported or reportee) and so it becomes a weapon against people you didn't like. That's a big deal when it is a system meant for serious offenses and excessive behaviors. I wrote a huge post on this but I'm going to wait and make my own thread because this post is upsetting given my recent experiences. I think you have really good intentions and you're an intelligent guy, but you're still trying to treat the symptoms when you should be identifying and taking care of the causes instead..."

Spot on right here, you want to fix player behavior? dont let the lynch mob of prissy teenagers create the rules.
