    Complaint:
    Inappropriate in-forum signature
    Evidence:
    Look at his signature
    Additional Information:
    It is only a meme that is inappropriate because it had the word "f---" which is still a profanity.

    A word that may or may not be(and probably is) a swear word, but is censored like that, is not a violation of the server's rules.

    EDIT: Thank you, @MatthewStevenGo, for posting your critique of my decision directly on my profile. It is not necessary to ask the other player for "their side of the story" when there are not two sides to weigh. You filed a complaint about @skymaster200's forum signature, which he has been using for some time now, and which has been seen by all of us hundreds if not thousands of times. It contains a censored swear word. Censored swear words are not against the rules when not directed against another player.

    For your reference today and in the future, here is the rule you accused @skymaster200 of violating, with relevant portions highlighted:

    Clause 2 - Vulgarity



      • Inappropriate and vulgar language is not allowed. This includes anything put on signs, said in chat, written in books, renamed to on items (see Section 3 Clause 2.1), spelt out in blocks (see Section 2, Clause 2.1), or any other way of communicating.
        • Occasional mild to moderate vulgarities that are not directed at anyone (such as "slip-ups" or saying them in the incorrect chat by accident), self-censorship of a swear word or abbreviations that may imply a swear word (eg. WTF?) are allowed unless it is directed at another user.
      • Repeated or excessive swearing, and especially vulgar language directed at anyone, is not tolerated under any circumstance.
      • Racist language or prejudicial language of any sort falls under the vulgarity rule, and is considered a very serious offence, punishment of which may not warrant a warning before being given a ban,

    Complaint dismissed.
