    You have been temporarily banned for Objectionable Behavior. This is your second Objectionable Behavior infraction so I suggest you take the time to go over our MapleRoyals TOS.

    Once your "jokes" are made publicly you are no longer in control of how they might be interpreted by others and who might be offended by them.

    Punishment: First offense - 3 day ban, Second offense - 7 day ban, Third offense - 30 day ban, Subsequent offenses - 90 day ban

    Objectionable Behavior
    - The act of insulting, threatening, or harassing other players or Staff, or engaging in speech that is vulgar, defamatory, obscene, hateful, discriminatory or derogatory on the basis of personal identity - including, but not limited to, race, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, religion, and national origin - irrespective of the language used. Additionally, the act of "spamming" or "flooding" with chat or skills, or any other action that is excessively disruptive to the individuals around you, as well as transmitting any sort of content that is inappropriate, sexually explicit, or privately owned.

    Additional information regarding the above terms may be found in the following appendix, included assisting in better understanding of terms that may include special circumstances or situations. Please note that not all of the above terms may have further explanations.

    As a general statement for terms under the Minor Infractions title, please be aware that Staff retains the right to decide on a case-by-case basis what infracts the rule and what does not. A similar case in the past does not necessarily qualify a current case to be treated in a similar manner, as every case is different and the nature of inappropriate actions is constantly changing. To be safe from potential bans under minor infractions, the most general suggestion we have is to act as though you are in a real-life public situation with your superiors around you. If you are respectful to the individuals around you, it will severely reduce any likelihood of facing minor infraction consequences.

    Appendix Objectionable Behavior - There are multiple scenarios in which harassment can be defined. Persistence and level of aggression are two major factors - constant harassment over a long period of time will likely qualify a player as having broken this rule, or alternatively a strongly objectionable statement or group of statements over a short period of time. Persistent mass defamation will be considered no less than two defames by an individual and may also include asking, paying, or otherwise incentivizing other players to defame another individual. Be aware that the use of certain words, and any variation on them, will result in an immediate ban, if they were uttered in a public space (defined as: all chat, megaphones, omok games, hired merchants, stores, chalkboards, etc.), regardless of the circumstances. In private spaces (defined as party chat, buddy chat, guild chat, alliance chat, spouse chat, whisper) these terms will be considered a bannable offense only if used in a targetted manner and the target files a report.

    Slurs such as [​IMG] and [​IMG], as well as any variations on them, are immediately bannable. Other highly offensive slurs may be considered equally bannable at the discretion of Staff, particularly when used in public chat or when used specifically against another player. We also prohibit slurs used in non-English cultures and languages. In general, we recommend players engage with one another with mutual respect and conduct themselves with decency, and keep any use of vulgarities in private channels.
