What inappropriate behavior lead to a ban?

TappedOut forum

I'll leave the player unnamed for now, for reasons in case I am wrong, but could a player be banned for posting inappropriate sexual images on their profile, decklists with inappropriate images on them, a description supporting prostitution, and posting rude comments like:

"Just. No.

Deck is worthless.

Definately unworthy the to be featured."

and:

"Waste of money.

By the way. You misspelled drunken.

Did you graduate elementary school?"

Could someone be banned for this?

BTW, the player didn't post this onto my deck, but onto another nice user. I just wonder if they have to put up with it or if this kind of behavior should even be allowed at all.

SynergyBuild: if you feel something is inappropriate, please let yeaGO (or another mod) know, so it can be reviewed and dealt with if required.

I've left a message on his wall asking him to review it as I don't have direct messaging enabled.

SynergyBuild: I'm in two minds about going through the process I used in general chat, feel free to PM me though.

As a general rule for everyone, if you find something that you think is inappropriate then the best resposne it to take it up directly with somebody like yeaGO. If something is inappropriate, it's best not to draw unneeded attention to it.

Without going into an exhaustive list about what is an isn't appropiate, things like overly aggressive behaviour, racist or bigoted comments, pornographic material, violent material, etc. are all good examples of not acceptable and should be taken up with the mods immediately.

If people are being stupid or rude, I don't think this is an immediate call for banning an account. Tehre is a "block user" feature specifically for this. However if people are being consistenly aggressive or abusive then yes, it should be flagged. But again, please take this directly to a mod.

I commented on this deck a few months back and there was nothing wrong with it or anything remotely scandalous... but recently a notification said a new comment was posted so I clicked on it..... and yeah the deck description was nothing like what it was before... the GIFs were not on it or anything about prostitution in the west... I just figure it would be put under a "NSFW" Hub or something

Icbrgr Actually, the NSFW is commonly used to mean, "Not Safe for Wallet", meaning really expensive, or for decks like stax that are really cruel.

It can also mean sexually explicit, but is rarely used in that way.

Pieguy396 - I'll try to msg Epochalyptik and ask about this.
