Dominic Taylor Posted October 6, 2016 Report Share Posted October 6, 2016 You are better off having a PDF file with all the sever rules on it that are colour coded: Green - Light ban or kick. Amber - Ban Red - Permanent or serve ban (Something along those lines) This would make more sense than having the rules listed on the website for too many reasons. 1) The website can be laggy because of how many people are on it at one time, some of them checking the rules. It would reduce the load on the websites server by having a separate PDF file with all the rules on it. 2) If an admin or player is unsure of any rules, they are able to quickly pull it up the PDF without checking the forums. 3) You permanently keep it open if they have a duel screen set up and make it a server rule to have the PDF downloaded. This in theory will reduce RDM and promote roleplay. It would also make it easier for the Admins and moderators as there would most likely be less incidents of 'Oh I didn't know the server rules, I'm new'. 4) There should be a huge disclaimer at the top of the sufficient evidence page stating: This is to inform you that if an Admin feels the evidence you supply or evidence against you is sufficient. It will be sufficient - If you have an issue with a ban or feel like your evidence needs to be reviewed by another. Please contact a higher up. 5) It would just look more professional to have and could potentially deter the trolls as It would just be a straight ban for retarded shit. System you could implement before getting banned you should be sent a private message In game or contacted on the forum just before you ban said player. It would be a lot less annoying to get banned mid-fight and getting some stupid arma notice: You are being banned for: <reason>. You have two minutes to stop what you're doing and log off, after two minutes you will be banned regardless. That message allows the player getting banned to log off somewhere safely, If he's mid RP with a cop or someone he could just state the message so he doesn't get reported or break the flow of someone else's game. This would be such a better system altogether. Hope you considering it. Link to comment

It would also make it easier for the Admins and moderators as there would most likely be less incidents of 'Oh I didn't know the server rules, I'm new'. 1. If the website was laggy or down due to DDOS or other technical issues how would people get/ find this PDF in the first place ? 2. Just as easy to click a link to the rules on the forums as it is to open a PDF file. 3. Having it would probably make little to no difference. e.g. Players who choose to break rules most of the time dont bother reading them or finding them in the first place. (Admins are understanding to newer players who break rules but warn them accordingly depending on what they did) Summary: Seems like it would be a waste of time IMO. Rosie likes this Link to comment
