A Message From Mr Lincoln – What Happens When a Player Gets Reported?
The following message was from Mr. Lincoln earlier today regarding player behavior this summer.
Greetings young Wizards, and welcome to August! There are many students at Ravenwood these days and not everyone is behaving themselves! Recently a question was asked about what happens when a player gets reported for inappropriate language, and here’s the details:
When you report someone, or you are reported, a message is sent directly to Mr Lincoln that includes the chat logs of everything that was said before and after that report.
Mr Lincoln then reads the log and assess the situation. He determines how bad the offense was, looks up prior offenses for the reported individual, and based on that assessment he issues sanctions such as muting or banning and sends an email to the offending account explaining the violation and the sanctions.
If the report was falsely made, that is determined as well, and the player who made the false report is investigated as to whether or not they have made previous false reports. False reports are just a egregious as valid ones, and similar sanctions can be levied against repeat offenders of false reporting.
Everything that a player enters into the chat window is logged. These larger chat logs are also routinely checked for those infractions that are not reported.
So please young Wizards, remember that what you say is being read by the faculty!
Thanks for the info Mr. Lincoln.
