dade. 46 Posted October 3, 2018 Report Share Posted October 3, 2018 After a while perma banned seems cruel.Could be for something you didnt do.But if people are dedicated enough to want to play after some amount of months or years,why not give them a second chance. Then if they are caught doing something bannable.They sould be permed. 1 Quote Link to comment
MAV 1684 Posted October 3, 2018 Report Share Posted October 3, 2018 Loads of people who where permed have been unpermed, not sure what constitutes being unpermed but it's doable Quote Link to comment
Theak 113 Posted October 3, 2018 Report Share Posted October 3, 2018 They tried that, it was chaos, In fact I know a few people who quit playing when they unpermed a few people who immediately (few weeks) showed they need to remain permed. I took a good break then too because of that actually. It's only a forever perm if you were doing something like hacking. They do still unperm people. Some people they let back with no income or no atm ability I think. Some had different restrictions Quote Link to comment

Blizzix 24 Posted October 3, 2018 Report Share Posted October 3, 2018 (edited) I believe that Permanent Bans are there for simplicity. They have the tendency to get the point to the player that what they have done is in no way allowed. They also convey to the player that the player should reflect and contemplate their actions to determine why they were banned, how they could prevent a ban in the future if they do return (or within other communities), what it is they could do differently in the future, and how they could make it up and possibly return to the community they were banned from. On the other hand, seeing someone getting a permanent ban is a clear message to not do what the player was banned for. As much as it may seem unfair, some bans are used as a deterrent and a message of what could happen if someone decided to follow the wrong do-er's footsteps. (Note: these are my own opinions. Ones I have seen in action elsewhere. I do not yet know if these opinions hold true to Olympus.) Anyhow: There is a system in place for players who have been banned (permanent or not) where they can have their ban reviewed by the proper authority and be notified why they were banned or possibly be able to be un-banned if it was a wrongful or unjust ban. Take a look at the "Ban Appeals" section on the Ticket Report Info forum, or look at the spoiler below. Spoiler Ban Appeals An appeal must be made within a week of the ban being issued. To appeal a ban click the "Support" link in the top bar Next click on "New Request" on the right side then choose "Ban Appeal" in the department. Fill in all the proper info and then click submit. The staff who issued the ban will respond to the ticket. (source) Btw, I highly recommend people read and understand the rules. Then take extra steps such as recording (shadow-play is a good place to start) to prevent any wrongful ban. While they may still happen I find they are pretty unlikely. ~Blizzix Edited October 3, 2018 by Blizzix 1 Quote Link to comment
Bloodmoon 2222 Posted October 3, 2018 Report Share Posted October 3, 2018 Perms are rarely truly permanent. Only time when a perm isn't just a >4 month ban is if you hack, ddos, or script. Quote Link to comment
drama 2979 Posted October 3, 2018 Report Share Posted October 3, 2018 no but really most “perms” get lifted after a while unless it’s scripting or cheating in any way. Even dupers get an unperm usually (with restrictions). However some people actually want perm bans. I can’t tell you how many people aren’t satisfied with me banning a guy for 3 days that they reported. Some people want harsher punishments, to each their own. I think the system we have now is pretty fair. I mean look at @Bloodmoon and @Genghis Khan, somehow those assholes aren’t permed 5 Quote Link to comment
