This thread is all over the place. I’m just going to address it for what it is and nothing else, a staff report. From everything I read and after reviewing the ban, I don’t think Rkvothe did anything warranting a staff action.
To me, the note/ban reasoning was pretty clear (They missed a clarity comma, but otherwise it’s honestly fine). To me, their thought process seems sound and they operated within the realms of expectation given the current information on-hand and our existing policies.
It should be fully noted as well that Rkvothe asked you to wait for 5-minutes (which isn’t an unreasonable amount of time given that you didn’t indicate you were in a hurry or anything like that) and then you immediately suicided. You’ve argued that there was no harm in this, since your past experience tells you that the situation is easily remediable; but, I’d counter argue that your past experience should also tell you not to leave when admin asks you to wait for a short period of time. If you waited 10-minutes (or even just the five they asked for) and then suicided, I wouldn’t be bothered. But, you didn’t even wait 5-seconds.

Given all of this, I am closing this report with no actions taken against Rkvothe. We will, however, look at potentially adding a new clause into R15 to properly address how antags should leave the round.
