Your name: Karuminska
Suggestion headline: Redo the rules for the server to include some which were accidentally removed, as well as add some for new forms of abuse that have been showing up.
Forum/Main Website: Main
Picture: This is optional
Why should we accept this:
A while back, we redid the server rules. It sadly cut out many rules, and left some holes in it that have been exploited to a point of being questioned on whether or not the rule exists. Since it's been a topic with alot of debate, I decided to make this and see what people think of it.
Small edit: This is NOT a new discussion, originally these were sent to Fantastic and Whiskey several months ago, and it was suggested I post them here.
