. . VIOLATION REPORTS Templates and Guidelines .

. . The following are guidelines for posting rule violation reports. Please follow this template as closely as possible, it makes everyone’s lives just a tad bit simpler. Remember, each member is only permitted to file one rule violation report per day. Any more than that and your additional reports will not be considered. This is done to prevent malicious reporting or multiple reports of extremely trivial behavior. Just go out, play the game, and have some fun. That said, we do realize that the players make for the best eyes and ears for catching rule violations both on the server and forums. If you find yourself in the position to report a violation, follow the guidelines in this thread to help us out. .

. . BEFORE YOU START Collate these: .	. . The rule(s) that were broken Pull up our rules, read them over to identify the broken one Gather your UNEDITED evidence Screenshots Upload them to an image hosting site and include the link Preferable to have the in-game chat window open If possible with /time readout Video footage Upload to YouTube and include the link Chatlogs Directory: Documents/My Games/Freelancer/DSAce.txt Include any relevant logs Timestamps The staff will find it incredibly helpful to have a timestamp included You can find it within the DSAce file listed above, if any logs match the time of the violation Context Giving us a paragraph or two explaining the situation and context The staff won't know the entire story by looking only at the evidence .
. . ASK YOURSELF... .	. . Am I filing a petty report because I’m angry? Remember the "sandwich rule," step away for 30 minutes. Return and decide if submitting the report is worth it. Do I really have enough evidence to make this stick? Sanctions won’t go through unless sufficient evidence is provided of the report. Consider what evidence you have and decide if it's enough. Is this person clearly just a new player who doesn’t know better yet? You should know by now that while most of the rules are common-sense, we’ve have a long list. If you suspect someone of being a new player, unless the violation is serious, you’re better off pointing them in the right direction than slapping them with a violation. Remember, we were all in their shoes at one point. .
