Admin Notice: Clarification on Permabanned Members and Shared Accounts - sindroms - 05-13-2017

Good day, everyone.

Sharing is caring, but from a server administration standpoint, it is a huge headache. While this approach has been used in the past, there is no record of it on the server rules, so this clarification is to serve as such and will be later introduced within the server rules text somewhere, directing at this thread. Our policy to members who have been banned ''Permanently'' and their server assets have been finalized as thus:

A "Permaban'' defines a sanction type where the player who is being punished is intended to, along with his server assets, be removed from the community for an indefinite amount of time, as opposed to regular bans which have a set end time. Permanent bans are only appealed by submitting a player ban appeal and are voted on by the administration team. If the vote fails, the player may not submit another appeal for another six months as already stated in the server rules.

When a player is "Permabanned", all of their ingame assets are frozen. Shared characters are included in this freeze to avoid future situations where shared banks and expensive ships are being saved/bumped by a third party member. The only ships that may not be hit by this freeze are shared faction ships that have a shiplock and requests to unban them will be viewed on case-by-case basis.

We would like to remind you that you should only share access to your accounts to people you trust and that all risk of losing these accounts are a risk you yourself are responsible for.

~Admin Team

What about a proxy ban - a ban that affects one player account but from another existing IP?
