Ban wipe.

[Fultz]

A ban wipe is a horrible idea. I still wish all my old bans were visible.

However, I'll be the genius to suggest this since no one else has tried to make a middle ground on this. Why not just unperm everyone who is currently permed ( outside the past say month) but all bans stay. So people coming of perms can come back and given another chance if they truly want to play here, but all are on a last chance once more?

Oh, do you mean the new permaban policy thingie:

A Permanent ban cannot be disputed unless solid evidence is provided proving your innocence.


Permanent bans really mean forever, which means you will never be unbanned.
Permanent bans are reserved for ToS. Any ban greater than BanID: 79180 will be affected by this original policy.
This means any permanent ban before this ID does have a chance of redemption, considering they haven't broke ToS, if we feel they have been banned long enough, are sincere, or deserve it. (Case-by-case basis).

I would somewhat agree actually. On a case-by-case basis, they should have some chance of returning after enough time has passed since the ban. That, of course, depends on their ban and how they behave. If they genuinely wish to return and take the server seriously, they should have a chance to return.

Though hard permabans are mainly for serious offenses, like considerable ToS breach or some other major issue.
Even pitty hacks like ESPs usually only result in a soft perm, which is a 1-2 year ban. If someone says they have a hard perm which is pretty hard to get, then it should be taken with a grain of salt. 

But as mentioned in the new permaban policy, everyone permabanned before banID: 79180, which was in December 2017, has a chance of returning by simply making a UBR, so they are still free to make a UBR.

Trust me. I agree with what is in place. I'm not saying that.

I'm just suggesting a proposal that meets in the middle. Kids want a full ban wipe here. Everyone else is saying make an Ubr if you want unbanned. All I am saying is why not meet in the middle and just skip the Ubr part and just unban all perms or even reduce all year +bans. 

So instead of quoting things at me that I already know about, why don't we try and discuss a potential middle ground that will appease everyone?
