RE: Questions about the first town hall. - Jammin - 04-22-2021
Ooh big one I forgot to bring up at the town hall.
Mass RDM/Constant RDM bans
Let's not make them permanent.
Let's make them a 1 or 2 year ban.
Why? Read both of @"Russ the Stress Queen"'s threads below. He puts it really well:

I think for specifically mass RDM bans, implementing a 2 year ban, as opposed to a permaban, is more than adequate to ensure the troll does not return without appealing in the short term, but does not preclude them from returning years later - after maturing - and may improve our community long term.

To carry the conversation, why give this amount of time? Instead of an undetermined amount of time why did you pick this specified length?

So we don't really pick a time on when exactly to vote or make a decision it just naturally fell on 5 days as our limit, partly because by letting it sit to long it appears as if we aren't doing anything about it. I know you of all people know that isn't entirely true but it also helps keep us on track so no request slips past us.
Also in regards to jammin or russ I do think that suggestion may work. The biggest hurdle would be making sure any future offenders are only set to 2 years instead of perma. Obviously it would be impossible to adjust all previous bans so they would have to appeal like we currently do. I'll mull this over and get back to you guys.

Also 1 year or 2? I think that one year is plenty IMO

I think you guys are forgetting that a perma isn't a "permanent ban". It's an indefinite ban that allows for those who actually want to come back to make the effort to come back. Most appealed permas are successful. You should allow for discretion to be kept in these decisions. Putting a value on it sets a precedent that could and most likely will be brought down. It'll go from 2 years, to 1 year, to 6 months and eventually it'll eventually become a problem with lessened punishment. At the end of the day leaving it at indefinite allows for the admin team to keep discretion on when people break the rules.
