Q. Where is the list of all the current members of staff?
A. http://s13.zetaboards.com/koeiwarriors/stats/staff/


Q. Is it possible to become a member of staff?
A. Yes it is. You may apply here.
http://s13.zetaboards.com/koeiwarriors/topic/7242132/1/


Q. I've been told not to spam. But what is spam?
A. Spam posts are those that do not contribute to the overall discussion of the thread. For example having simply a sentence in character topic "I like Ma Chao because he's the coolest!!!" does not add anything to the discussion, elaborating is the best way to go. In this case it would be "what makes Ma Chao the coolest? etc"
Completely off topic posts can also be counted as spam.


Q. Strikes. What are they?
A. Strikes are a form of punishment dealt out for breaking the rules repeatedly, this includes flaming, trolling, being disrespectful, continuously spamming etc. Each strike increases the warning level of which there are four. 25%, 50%, 75% and 100%. Reaching the 100% mark will automatically lead to a ban. However in some circumstances punishments may vary due to the actions.

After a six month period you will be eligible to have your warning level decreased if it is felt by the staff that you deserve it. You can inform a member of staff about this, so we can lower it for you.

Q. What's the difference between the Strike level and a warning?
A. The warn level is a level that increases based on the amount of Strikes you receive. A warning is separate in that it's just a reminder to follow the rules and the moderator requests.

Q. Banning. What is it?
A. A complete expulsion from the forum. Viewing and posting will be disabled.
