Ban Times

Ban Times
Ban times for regular offenses increase based off of the frequency of your bans.
Ban times are 1 → 2 → 3 → 5 → 7 → 14 → 30 or perm for all regular offenses.
The ban times reset after 2 months without receiving a ban.
Types of Bans
- Variable Offenses (Staff discretion): Exploiting, Event Disruption, etc.
- Regular Offenses (Follow above): RDM, VDM, NLR, RVD, Combat Log, Fail RP, any other 3-letter offense, etc.
- Major Offense (7 day + Follow above): Mass VDM, Mass RDM, etc.
- Insta-Perm (Perm): Scripting, Duping, DDoS, Server threats, etc.
Major Offense
A major offense in regard to bans will essentially be a "5-step skip". If each ban time is defined as a step with a 1-day being step 1 and 30 day or perm being step 7, someone who just got off of a 2-day ban (step 2) can receive a 30 day or perm (step 7) if they commit a major offense due to the 5-step skip at the banning staff members discretion.
Mass Definition
A mass ban is given when a rule is broken repeatedly. For example, Marcus is in Kavala, and he starts killing multiple people without proper engagement. This is considered mass RDM and can result in a 7-day ban even if he has never been banned before.
Reduced and Lifted Bans
Reduced Bans
A reduced ban will still count towards your current ban time. This means that even if you appealed a 2-day ban and the admin decides to reduce it to a 1-day ban, your next ban will be a 3 day ban.
Reduced bans can only be shortened by a maximum of 3 days or half the ban, whichever is longer.
Lifted Bans
A lifted ban does not count towards your current ban time. If you appeal a 2 day ban and it gets lifted by the admin then your next ban will be a 2 day since your previous ban did not count.
Server Rules
The best way to avoid getting banned is to know the rules.
