3.3 Out-of-character (OOC) chat must not be used in system or local chat. OOC communication in group or private chat between players will cease if one player requests it. Admins are free to communicate with any player at any time.
You do not go OOC in public, not even if your opponent does.
And you do not call the player a douchebag either. Regardless if he is annoying or not.
Consequences:
-70 million credits fined from your bank.
-H-Dawg!'s hold cleared for the paperwork.
If you post in this sanction and are not directly involved or a leader of the accused person's faction be advised

So, I only went OOC in system with 1 message, to tell the 2nd guy ( I mention no names unless you want me to) to stop going OOC, I know this is not allowed, but I thought it would be acceptable in order to stop him. I probs should have used PM, but seeing as I have done, and seen this done (people briefly going OOC to tell others to stop it) many times before, I figured it was a (excuse the drama) "necessary evil" if not, well I apologise, but point out that many people do it, and do not get sanctioned.
I notice he got sanctioned for the OOC aswell, but only 11 mill, therefore I must conclude that the extra 59 mill for me is for the insult.
This was an INRP insult, after I told him to cut the OOC he started threatening to kill me, I assumed this was INRP threats, as he was not using // and well, threatening to kill someone OORP? So I responded INRP - you can see I did not use // either - with an INRP insult, which I was sure was allowed, as long as it was not too harsh.
"Douchebag" does not seem like a very harsh insult to me, we are allowed to say "bastard" so did I really get sanctioned for "douchebag"? H-Dawg (as you may be able to tell from the name) is a sort of "homeboy" char, so douchebag is a standard insult for him, do I need to change this?
Prehaps you thought it was an OORP insult, but I assure you it was not, I have never insulted another PLAYER (I have insulted many other characters) in all my time as far as I can remember.
I would like you to reverse the entirety of the Sanction, but I cannot deny I went OOC in system for 1 message to tell the second guy to stop speaking OORP, and 2 messages in local to tell the first guy to stop speaking OORP, I can only appeal, and say I thought it was generaly accepted as OK in these brief circumstances, and that the insult was definitely INRP.
