Regarding the Revision of the Prohibited Activities and Account Penalty Policy

[ZeroAlex]

Basic common sense changes and you all forget that a GM will be held accountable if it's proven that his action were in the wrong. They are not all powerful beings and such and if the case escalates for sure there are penalties.
Now, I see that people are overreacting and don't wait to see how this plays out. It could be very well as many as stated , but it could just be a way to provide a way for GM to intervene in cases they couldn't before.

But how do you tell the devs or whomever is overseeing the GMs (assuming they have any sort of oversight) when a GM is in the wrong? There is no appeals process. This is a fundamental issue that goes hand in hand with these new changes. GMs or players could EASILY abuse this system and victims of this abuse will have no recourse.

I am sure in such cases it can be escalated. Now the others have pointed out the flaws in their announcement now, that there is no text about the appeal and some broad wordings that spiked this avalanche .

Most likely they will review it and provide clarifications .
