MUFC92 again?

Second time in a few days he gets baned only because he used a photo of IRA as an avatar.

So admins please explain us what law of erepublik forbids you to use this avatar and where is the illegal thing he didnt respect here?

Funny that, I had an avatar that said "IRA - Undefeated Army" for two weeks without any warning at all. Shows just about how much admins prioritize gold buyers.

Unban MUFC!
Freedom for Ireland!

Shame on the one who reported him and the admins for banning him.

Who wrote the article about the last time?
I need to copypasta my replies, but I can't remember which paper it was in.

Found it... Conway wrote it.

If that image constituted a FP and a suspension, then there are a few thousand more players that should be out of commission tomorrow. I have no problem with the admins deciding this was a punishable offense, as long as they apply the same standard to every player... they won't.

Double standards are double.

Aren't all militaries "terrorists" from the perspective of their opponents?
Should eRep ban all military imagery?

Perception is truth, and everyone's perceptions are different. The values held by one admin, may not be held by another. The decision to punish a player will vary based on the bias of whatever admin is assigned to judge the case. It's a simple fact of human nature.

I have no problem with the suspension, if that's the rule that the admins wish to enforce. The problem I have is with the double standard. If this judgement is the new standard for imagery allowed, then there are hundreds (and probably thousands) of players that should be suspended for a day.

He broke the rule of annoying a major goldbuyer.

The admins must do whatever it takes to keep them happy. That includes selectively enforcing the rules. They will ignore the rules that major goldbuyers break. They stretch the interpretations of rules find a way to punish the common folk who disturb the important goldbuyers.

eRep discipline... it's for sale.
