Unless on usurped or deceptive pretenses, I do not encourage the act of circumventing bans, and other people in charge would say the same.

That said, if someone gives off the vibes that they’re in the business of it, it cannot be enforced as if it were an exact science. It can only be dissuaded based on certain definitive details. We kindly ask if you may give the benefit of the doubt, and if people (not us) have the authority to do so, they will act.

Let people higher up take care of these matters. Do not harass people or vent at them over such matters, and report people cautiously, not based on whims. Or as a list of rules once said…

“Remember the human” is as good a rule here as anywhere. Thanking all for their patience.

    This is already a thing. When I provide a response to something, the effect is never permanent, whether rewarding or punishing. It goes along with the fact that the most fitting form of authoritative decision making isn’t based on subjective whim but is systemic (and based on consistent clear-cut guide lines).
