It's called, Clan Chat> Kick Player.

They can't rejoin CC for like 30 mins. No need for warnings on forums.

That doesn't accomplish anything though.

People don't care, they'll just leave, and then repeat their offense the next event.

 I don't know what the answer is and even if I did, would I dare say anything?

 When leaders are giving vital instructions, its important everyone shuts up, particularly in practices when instructions are out of the norm.

Give warnings as you see fit

 i agree with warning levels. If you cant shut up like we did back in the day....then you deserve to get the warn level.

 It's not the punishment that gets you better result, it's the fear of the punishment tongue.gif
The punishment is just to prevent people from doing it, and if they don't do it, then the punishment shouldn't be a problem at all tongue.gif

Though if warn levels are going to be used, the rule shouldn't be very strict.
By that, I mean instead of giving a warn level right after a verbal warning, good judgement should be used, because someone might say something that is actually very important, and someone might lag, etc..
The warn level should be (imo) removed after 1 month if the person follows the rules.

Just what I think about the subject tongue.gif

 If I'm interpreting this correctly, I see this as only a temporary solution, correct? Since we've got the new PvP worlds on our horizon we'll be able to do waht we used to. Force people to leave and even kill them if necessary. In that respect, during practice sessions ejection from the event would be a major loss because it could be compounded with rejection from the next raid (when PvP comes out again, of course).

I think Rick has the right idea that a forum warning doesn't really suite an in-game abuse, but really that is the only thing at this point in time that can really be worth something in terms of the clan. As Vince said, more warnings results in forum restriction and possible loss of attendance.

I think right now, this system would work fine simply because there really isn't much else to use as a punishment. Being kicked from the CC hardly means anything and there is no real monetary loss when we do practices and there is no prospect of profit.

If you want to Rick, think of it like this. You get a forum warning by abusing the forums via spamming, flaming, flame baiting and such. Well, when you're ordered to be silent in a practice session essentially anything you say after the order was given becomes spam.

 24hr suspensions.

Job Done.

Who cares if it's harsh? It's the least harsh, effective punishment available.

Yeah its not permanent.
When the new pvp worlds come out things will change.

Warn level??? Come on. Is that your only recourse because you have the power to do so? Give me a fricken break.

Warn levels should be for forum abuse ONLY, not to use as a punishment tool for something that happens in game.

You want to punish people for what they do out in game, then punish them with something in game...like: dismissing them from the event, adding required events to make the next level within the clan, not allowing them to participate in "fun" events or drop parties, or in severe cases, demote them.

Back in the day, if we were on a raid and people continued to misbehave and not be quiet, the clan would kill THEM. Not saying that I agree with that at all...killing our own is something we shouldn't get in the habit of doing, but it shows that we handled things out where the offense took place.

Get a grip on your event and EARN the respect and admiration from those of us who attend these events and perhaps things might go a little better.

Rick while it is nice to have your imput, I think that it would be benficial to your application not to make enemies with the leaders. The warn levels on the board are for everything, forum and elsewhere.

And while it is important for people to earn their respect, it is also important for us to give it to them when they are in a spot of authority, and are doing their best for the clan.

When I attended a training, i forget whos it was, but all people did was constantly talk, and even though it was not my training, it got on my nerves very much. So I have to agree with math here and say taht a little more discipline has to be applied when people are talking during trainings.
