In the absence of any punishment there can be no violation. Someone can threaten all they like but it matters not until punishment is meted out. To act on premeditation is to complicate matters and is in no way provided for in the wiki document.
I call BS on this.
Regarding the inalienable rights, the "injury" component of standing is considered to have occurred at even the threat, because the threat itself can inhibit someone else's gameplay. No injury is done to the
character, but we're not really concerned about the character. IRs ultimately relate to the
player.Moreover, let's be clear on this: we are making public decisions with published rationales. We are establishing the guidelines for behavior.
Are you seriously saying, Fury, that you think giving the
order to report every day should be allowed, but
enforcing the order should be prohibited? So it's fine to order someone to change classes, but you just can't fine them when they refuse? It's fine to order someone not to go to a tournament, but it's not okay if you ban them for it?
Even a request is a violation. The IRs must. not. be. touched. Ever. When a tournament is announced in the middle of a war, you smile and say "Well, isn't that nice, I hope everybody has a wonderful time at it!"
Moreover, I believe the orders given read that they were to individually report, not scout reports, but reports of civil work... and I believe the civil work page
explicitly discourages public reporting of civil work. Or am I confusing it with some other page?
Whatever the case, I must concur with many others and say that this is an obvious IR violation. It is also obviously without malicious intent, and did comparatively little harm, and so should probably be responded to with one of those nice yellow warnings.
