Edit Reason: Moving the thread.
)
Moving this thread to the Feedback/Help subforum as it fits there better.
A couple things here:
1) In general, mods tend to be more reluctant these days to issue warnings or bans for PMs for just that reason. Ignoring someone is supposed to be the end and they're supposed to move on.
2) Failing to properly read a profile and sending a stupid message generally doesn't draw a warning. People screw up and say dumb things, and some just can't offer what you're looking for and won't know it until they're told. But again, ignoring someone is supposed to be the point where both people move on.
3) Retaliating for filing a report is NOT allowed for exactly that reason. If you ignore someone and they're either bothering you on another account or trashing you in public chat, report them. You are NOT allowed to bypass an ignore, and if a moderator feels a player hasn't dropped an issue after an ignore, issuing warnings or even bans is certainly appropriate. If it doesn't end with an ignore... that's where moderators are supposed to step in.
I feel for you, and I hope that helps shed some light on why warnings and bans do and don't get issued.
Also, for anyone else considering jumping in, you may. But remember:
Do NOT argue specific warnings or bans in this thread.
Questions and complaints about general policies are fine, as the ToS isn't always crystal-clear on what is allowed and what isn't. But keep it civil. And if you feel a moderator has made a decision that's unfair, you can always appeal to Support, currently at team.mnfclub@gmail.com. In-game moderators cannot view those messages. And if you have a question about the rationale for why a warning or ban was or wasn't issued, please email Emmie or Vrook, who are both in-game moderators and are generally able to provide a little more information.
