There is obviously a disconnect between what the rules actually are and what they are perceived as being. There is also a difference in how the rules are enforced based on who is breaking the rules. Let me address both of these issues.
First, we are working and brainstorming ways to make the RULES readily accessible to everyone. This way there is no question as to what the rules are and what needs to be enforced.
Second, and maybe MORE importantly, the days of favoritism are over. It doesn't matter to me if the person breaking the rule is a first-time person connecting to the server as a F2P or someone that has donated 47 keys towards premium. The punishment will be enforced. All admins and mods have to buy-in to this or they are part of the problem, not the solution. Not being on the same page is no longer an option.
If you see a mod or an admin enforcing something that isn't a server rule, dealing out unjust punishments for something that isn't a rule, or are just being overall abusive, you need to bring it to another admin's attention.
