When you get lots of assists, but the team still loses

Hello everyone,

 

Resident warnguy Alistair is here to introduce a new type of warning: the aptly named Evasion Assistance!

 

As you may know, users who have reached a certain warning points threshold can be muted on Reborn's discord server for a period of time, or banned from the community. From now on, posting screenshots of muted/banned users' messages will be considered as helping them evade the WP system's consequences, and will therefore be penalized appropriately.

 

All the important things to know about this new warning:

  • It is worth 1 WP, lasts 90 days, and belongs to the Minor warnings category.
  • It is given to the user who reposts messages, not the muted user themselves. Warnings would splash to the muted user themselves only if clear consent to repost messages in the community can be proven, in which case these actions fall under deliberate mute evasion.
  • Users posting screenshots from other users are still accountable for the content of those messages, including any derogatory, sexual, disrespectful, or otherwise unacceptable content. As a result they may also incur warnings for their own account despite not being the original author.

 

Thank you for understanding, and have a nice day or night!

Question: Does posting past quotes of a muted/banned user count as Evasion Assistance as well?

Forum quotes are safe, since the content is already here for everyone to see anyway. The warning is mostly intended for new content posted in the community as a means to go around a temporary (or permanent) mute.

Is this just to text posts or does artwork count too?

 

Artwork should be fine, as long as it's just the sprite/drawing/other in itself and not whole messages from muted/banned users. Although the last principle I exposed still applies to art; reposters are accountable for the nature of what they repost, should it break any rules.
