Vorshayla Punishment

[iStegosauruz]

It came to Head Office’s attention tonight that several users on twitter engaged in a debate that included one user using ableist hate speech. Head Office doesn’t condone or tolerate this type of language at all. The community should be a place where everyone can feel welcome and this type of language and behavior inhibits that mission. We’d like to remind everyone that the words you use matter and to be smart and respectful when representing the league and engaging with other members of the community.

As a result @Vorshayla has been issued a nine day site ban starting immediately and concluding on February 20th at 11:59PM EST. He has also been issued a twitter ban starting immediately and running through Week 8 of Season 29.

Users as always are able to contact Manicmav36 or any member of the appeals team to appeal this ruling.

The Union supports the swiftness of this action and thanks HO for their due diligence.

Out of curiosity, why specifically 9 days?

[Rusfan]

Man I really hate the term ableist

Out of curiosity, why specifically 9 days?

Don't be a dick rule is in effect. Great job!

Out of curiosity, why specifically 9 days?

It was determined to be a 1 week ban, but since we are towards the end of the week, extending it from the current time to 9 days (end of next week) ensures that the AC and WT won't be able to be completed next week. Otherwise it wouldnt quite have the same effect if it started from today, plus would be weird to either sit on this for a couple days or wait those days to then enforce it
