This may sound a bit stupid, but....what if there is a Forum Sevens Judicary?
People that make racist, offensive, etc posts for their team can be put on report and have to face the Judicary? Could also be used where (it has happened in the past) players from another team invade another teams thread and degrade it etc.
Finally also face the judicary for abusing follow players.
What about it? Could be an answer to a few discipline problems that pop up here and there.
Thats a very good point and one that I sort of covered in the regulations thread. Something about the forum moderator being involved should a major disruption occur.
Ultimately, it is the responsibility of the website to watch out for anything that is deemed to be racist etc. Truth is, most people know the boundaries so it won't happen very often if at all.
But the site owners have to be wary that the server doesn't get any complaints.
The way it works is that if someone views the site (be it League Unlimited or the Front Row Forums) and makes a complaint to the server (web host), then we have to defend ourselves.
The server have a section called 'Abuse Department' and these buggers have a habit of closing down sites without much consideration. It's very unlikely it would get to that stage because our Patron Saint, the Jolly Green Giant, is on the ball. 8-[
Eventually, we will have a few moderators and if you like, they can be a judiciary of sorts but as always, these things are open to discussion.
