Rule Change: Removal of Town Perms

We've added the highlighted line to our rules regarding removal of town perms:

Clause 3 - Seizure of Property & 3 Day Eviction Notices

• By owning the town, a town Mayor has the right to remove you from the town at any time, for any reason, so long as the Mayor gives the user a 3 day eviction notice.
  • An eviction notice may be given by in-game (either by PM or /mail) or by tagging evicted users in a thread in the Town Evicitions sub-forum within the Towns Discussion forum. It is not required to post a thread for any eviction, although it may be easier if you are evicting multiple users.
  • The eviction notice must contain the name of the town. Be sure to collect evidence of this for LWC Removal Requests and/or proof should it be required at a later date. It is crucial that the screenshot has a timestamp (double tap f2).
  • If the user being evicted has LWCs in the town and the Mayor intends to file an LWC Request to have them removed, the eviction notice must include a specific request that the user removes their locks within the 3 days.
  • The evicted user must have had the opportunity to view the eviction notice. If the user has not been online, in-game or on the forums depending on how the eviction notice was issued, during the 3 day period then the eviction is not valid. The mayor or co-mayor must wait until the user is inactive (at least 7 days offline) or has been online to view to the notice before removing the user from the town or filing an LWC Removal Request.
• Only the Official Owner or the Legal Owner of the town may evict players who are region owners/co-mayors.
• However, under the following circumstances, the 3 day eviction criteria need not be met and the user may be removed from the town:
  • A user is inactive (by staff standards, this means at least 7 days offline.)
  • A user who has been banned for griefing in the town or warned by a staff member as a result of a Grief Report.
  • Players added to a region for a specific job upon completion of work or termination of employment.

Please note, if the town has an interact deny flag, you will be required to give the players perms as usual to file any LWC removal requests. As well, normal guidelines apply for any removal of locks, including a period of notice to remove locks.

Should a complaint arise regarding this, and you were the one to remove the player(s) in accordance with these rules, you will be required to provide evidence of the fact they were hired and completed the assigned task or were terminated from employment.
