Community Charter

• The chain of information (not command) flows like this.
  
  
  
  • Members approach Admins of the server/area in question. Admins deal with that scenario and document if required.
  • Server Admins approach Council Members (In the Council Forum) if they have an issue that they can not resolve.
  • Council Members go to the Triumvirates (In the Council Forums) should they require help with an issue.
  • Veterans may join in on council discussions, but do not vote on council decisions.
  
  
  Admitting Admins
  Game and Server Admins may be proposed by current Admins, Council Memebrs, or Triumvirates. Council Memebrs will vote on their acceptance.
  
  
  
  Council Members may be proposed by existing Council Members and Triumvirates, and will be accepted with a 75% vote in favour. The vote must run for 7 days.
  
  
  
  Amending Clan Rules
  Rules and clan guidelines must be discussed with changes only allowed with a majority vote of 75% of all active Council Members.
  
  
  
  Polls and Voting
  All polls must include a Yes, No, Abstain option.
  
  Polls regarding Rule Changes must be advertised by as many means as is reasonable. (FB, Steam, TS etc)
  
  
  
  Active Admins
  You must check the forums regularly and keep an eye on the Admin Forums. If something requires a vote you must comment. Even if your comment is simply, "read, no comment" or in the case of a poll, abstein. This will be the means by which we determine if you are active.
  
  
  
  Non Active Admins will have their admin privileges removed for security reasons until such time as they return. Upon return they may be reinstated by a vote. (This is generally a formality)
  
  
  
  BANNING AND KICKING
  The general rule of thumb is warning the kick, kick, Ban. This type of administration is generally to do with behavioural issues. eg: Language, Racism, bullying etc.
  
  Hacking with proof may require an insta ban.
  
  
  
  Each game has it's own peculiarities/issues and the Admins of that server must come up with guidelines to address how this rule of thumb will apply in their game. This should be stickied at the top of their respective Admin Forum so that Senior Admins may review and monitor it.
  
  
  
  ALL BANS must be documented. They should be posted in the Server Issues & Bans Group for review by Senior Admins.
  
  
  
  Bans of PR Members will always be reviewed and discussed by Senior Admins, so be certain of your right to ban someone before you do. Non-Member bans can still be lifted upon review by request.
  
  
  
  Any other form of restriction upon a PR Member, including Warnings, must be documented to allow Senior Admins to remain aware of what is going on between members.
  
  
  MEMBER SERVERS
  
  If a member chooses to rent a server that they wish to run in the clan's name they may do so provided that
  
  1. They follow all general {PR} Gaming guidelines, including
     • No hate speech or harassment
     • No admin abuse
  2. They properly support the game by either being an active in-game admin and present in the related pr-gaming.net forums or they appoint a responsible admin to do the same.
  
  As long as the server and admin meet the requirements above, the clan should advertise the game server on our website and assign the title of Specialist to the admin(s) for the game. If the guidelines above are not met the member(s) running the game will not be listed as Specialists, we will not advertise the server, and we will ask that the server name / description / in game messaging not refer to the clan or website.
