    Complaint:
    Clause 3 - Inappropriate/Touchy Subjects and Discussions
    EcoCityCraft is a server community consisting of many age groups, religious groups, and political backgrounds. As such, there are many touchy subjects that we do not allow in our public channels in order to keep the peace and prevent arguments and flame wars from occurring.
    All chat must be kept appropriate and clean at all times. There is to be no discussion of anything deemed inappropriate for a workplace, including, but not limited to, sexuality, excessive violence, alcohol/drugs and inappropriate or dark humor.
    This rule extends into subjects about illegal substances or actions, including drugs.
    Politics, religion and suicide are common “touchy subjects”, however they are not the only ones. Should a staff member ask you to change a subject they feel is touchy and/or is causing the direction of chat to deviate towards an argument or flame war, you must drop the subject immediately.
    Discussing a banned user's ban reason and why they were banned is not allowed, however simply mentioning a banned player's username is allowed.
    Accusing other players of breaking any of the Server Rules is not allowed. Use the proper means to address these concerns such as speaking to a staff member or filing a complaint.    ​

    I said RIP I didn't say anything bad. It was a sad tragic event I was expressing my thoughts.

    Hello, gents.

    @minecraftninja05, @UnitedStates2 -- why are you both posting here? Why, I ask you? And I ask you rhetorically, because if you post on this thread again I'll warn you.

    Thread remains open while I decide what action, if any, to take. No more posts from ANYONE, including the players involved, unless I ask. This is not the "reflexive flaming" forum.

    OK, I've given this some thought and reviewed the relevant rules myself.

    While "excessive violence" and "suicide" are touchy subjects which we do prohibit in chat, it is one thing to make a single comment sympathizing with the victims of a senseless crime, and another thing to talk about it in a way which is disruptive of the server. Let's remember that our most general rule, which informs all the other rules, is "use common sense, be a good sport, and a friendly community member." While this subject could be upsetting to players, that would easily be dealt with in-game if that's the way the conversation went. "RIP" means "rest in peace," or "requiescat in pace" in the original Latin. That is an appropriate sentiment to express upon the senseless death of innocent people.

    I don't see how @LotteryHaxer's comment violates that principle, without more. I suppose it is only natural, when something senseless takes place, to reach out to the people one is hanging out with at the time. That being said, I might suggest that a private conversation with a friend might be a more appropriate venue than a comment like this in global chat. I personally would not bring something like that up around children, and we do have some of those in global at any given time. I encourage you to use a little more discretion in the future.

    In order for this comment to be a rules violation, this conversation would have had to develop into something more. However, @skymaster200, it's certainly a reminder to be more careful in chat, so thank you for bringing it to our attention.

    Thread locked -- complaint dismissed.
