[LVS] Council Pre-Meeting Agenda (1st July 2017)

[Forseth]

Personally, I don't think the chat behavior should be clarified in the rules. Yes the filter is great, and it should be used, but rules should be strict but only loosely defined (the same works for laws in countries). What might be offensive to one person might be nothing to another. Its up to all of us to let the players know what we find offensiv, and ask them to stop. Should they not, we can always bring it up with the guardians and ask them to intervene. But the rules shouldn't state what someone can or can't say, only that appropriate language is needed. Basically, my point is that the rules could say: "Use appropriate language" and not stating specifics.

I'd be willing to agree with you if this wasn't a minecraft server.

And when I said what should be acceptable chat behavior, I didn't mean me put up a list of topics that are a no no based on every single players discomforts. What I'm saying is, Telling other people "To just ignore it" or "Why would you get offended?" Isn't a valid response to someone spewing disgusting comments in the chat. Even after they've been asked to stop. Seems like some people will ignore when a player asks them to stop, then claim ignorance when probed by a Blue or Guardian.

Also on the topic of rules...

As decided in the meeting on the 11th of March, the rules should be clarified and if a zedling starts off a rules page on the wiki the guardians can go over and ammend or add to it if neccecery. I created the page and attempted to clarify some of the rules, based on previos rulings from the guardians. Unfortunatly I reached the limit of my knowledge and still feel it is lacking, if it could be gone over that would be good, as currently the whole idea of having a complete rule set is still very short of progress.

@Swaylight

Aha, I misunderstood your request. I thought you wanted the council to go through the rules and clarify them.

Agreed. Things like that shouldn't be shrugged off.

Traveling, so can't make it. So sorry.

There is a good chance I will be arriving late, but will ultimately get there.
