🤨In-Game Punishment

This is a compilation of SplashBay's punishments. Certain punishments only pertain to staff, while others are applicable to all community members.

This is in revamp stage!

Important Information

• Higher ranks may be subject to more severe punishments.

• All punishments are subject to change depending on the severity of the community member's actions. Only SHRs may change a punishment from what is listed below.

• Lack of awareness regarding the rules does not exempt an individual from receiving a punishment.

• Staff members who acquire a rank through points are still obligated to adhere to all of SplashBay's rules. Failure to do so will result in the same disciplinary actions, such as demotions, blacklists, and permanent bans.

• Certain punishments designated for staff members may also be applicable to non-staff.

• Not all punishments are explicitly listed in this document. It is expected that community members exercise common sense.

• If an action below does not occur in-game, HRs do not need to server ban the player. For example, if a community member is found simping for an SHR in the Discord server, there should be no server ban. But why would you do that? Odd.

• HRs may only use the :kick command to update a player's rank in case of a glitch, when punishing people crowding or excessively large avatars that obstruct the view.

• Chairperson+ have the right to hold certain punishments as unappealable.

• Ownership has the right to change certain punishments at any time, even if they are currently doing the punishment. For example, if a staff member is suspended for 2 days they can change it to 1 day or 10days. It depends on the ownership team member.
