So, most of the Fearless Moderation was involved in this case, Mike made the statement and we all discussed for some time. We talked about the ToS and Mike himself, we came to the conclusion that it was likely to be a joke due to Mike's profession and personality. So as Suarez said, we did a diplomatic vote with a couple of options, and obviously staff members had an option to abstain. Beforehand we talked to Turtle and SoulRipper, we had could've went to a permanent suspension. Instead we gave Mike a choice, he could be banned for a week and be on his last chance, or he could be banned permanently. The last chance statement was given due to the nature of the rule violation as it was against Fearless Terms of Service.
However my question is DVN, why do you believe it necessary to bring such matters up, isn't it staff members or the people directly involved who should worry about bans am I not correct? I'm sure Mike doesn't want too much attention brought to it, I'm sure he is more than capable than dealing with it himself. I am confused on how you think you make a difference in such matters. Put it this way, we could've permanently banned him, this was the next best thing.
"DVN, why do you believe it necessary to bring such matters up, isn't it staff members or the people directly involved who should worry about bans am I not correct?"
You cant actually see why someone would question a case that they don't see fair. It isn't our problem that Syrians are needing a country to take refugee in, its their problem, why should we care. Same deal, we care about our fellow FL players and DVN seems to care about Mike and his ban request.
"we came to the conclusion that it was likely to be a joke due to Mike's profession and personality."
If you came to the conclusion that what he said was a joke why would he be punished so harshly for it? I can understand getting serious at the situation but if he was only joking and you guys realized that why punish him in this way?
