Related to LoTC or not, why would u wanna see ur character get freaky in the sheets. it makes no sense just have fun and find a different hobby 17 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know you’re trying to defend your good friend (B) but alas you must think rationally. 29 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

DizzyGrey 34 Share Posted March 19 Whilst the ruling is a reasonable one, based on a valid concern (we don’t want minors being coerced or guided into such scenarios, jeez), I must state that I heavily disagree with and criticise the two month ban of the server owner. 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amayonnaise 1551 Share Posted March 19 I am glad this is in place. However, I am also disappointed. These exact rules have been requested time and time again, on multiple threads discussing the nature of NSFW art and how it should be managed and limited. It took the creation of a problematic Discord Server dedicated to NSFW Art, posted on the main LotC Discord as @Werew0lf stated, for these rules to be implemented. This is definitely a step forward, but should have occurred sooner. 13 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Asutto 2004 Share Posted March 19 It's a shame that LoTC Administration were forced to implement a rule regarding this but I'm glad we finally have an answer. The rule change has also brought forth a series of good questions from the community and I hope we can have those answered soon rather than waiting until the next crisis to answer them. 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t think the server owner was malicious or intentionally trying to harbour children, or attempting to expose them to harm. I believe the ban is justified, as intentional or not, they did not properly safeguard the discord server. Two months is quite tame for the amount of stuff that was discovered in that discord, and for how easily accessible it was made to anyone without proper checks. I would even say that two months is considerably lax, when you consider all things. I believe that the admins have taken the proportionate response in giving a lesser sentence, as it was clearly not done with malcontent. 32 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Minuvas 2900 Share Posted March 19 The ban of an owner seems lenient. A two month moderator ban for the owner of a discord that was engaging in this supposed behavior on its surface seems like a slap on the wrist. 10 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

A two month moderator ban for the owner of a discord that was engaging in this supposed behavior on its surface seems like a slap on the wrist. In what universe would I ever trust this person back into the mod team when they return? Staff should receive a much stricter requirement of adherence to the rues, and should be under a 0 tolerance policy when it comes to matters of trust and abuse of their position. This is the second such occurrence known to me of a staff member receiving a temp ban, revolving around issues of trust and or abuse of their position. We need to advocate for PERMANENT blacklisting of staff that do these things. Maybe they should be allowed to be players, but under no circumstances should we hand them authority on the server anymore. The player in question is not a moderator staff member. I think you’ve confused yourself. 6 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
