# Ban Stacking

<p align="center">It does not matter where they received the bans, any bans will be combined whether it’s in game or in discord. Some instances don’t require the warnings or 1 hour ban if they are serious enough.<br><br>Be sure to check the !b command to see their previous bans. </p>

<mark style="color:violet;">2 ‘Warnings’</mark>

If it is a player’s first offense; you can offer them a warning. If it is an official warning you should be making a ticket and writing a note of it on their profile. If it is just a warning of “don’t do that in chat”, it does not count towards the 2 warnings.&#x20;

<mark style="color:violet;">1 ‘1-Hour ban’</mark>

Some Personal Insults would fall under this category, as well if they had been previously warned for some comments. Following the quick tables, use your discretion on how severe the case may be or you can ask your fellow staff team for assistance.&#x20;

<mark style="color:violet;">2 ‘24 Hour Bans’</mark>

The most common bans and can happen without having warnings or the previous 1 hour ban depending on the severity.&#x20;

**Anything higher than this please make sure to @adminteam and make sure they receive a ban ingame and in discord.**

<mark style="color:violet;">1 ‘1 Week Ban’</mark>

Whether they get 24 hours in discord or in game, the 1 week time out / ban needs to be distributed on both. Plus any discord alts they may have.&#x20;

<mark style="color:violet;">1 ‘2 Week Ban’</mark>

The same as 1 week, applies to in game and discord. &#x20;

<mark style="color:violet;">1 ‘30 Day Ban’</mark>

Applies to in game and discord

<mark style="color:violet;">Perma Ban</mark>

You will do 999999 hours and ban from discord.

<mark style="color:violet;">Targeting Warnings</mark>

After it’s been confirmed to be targeting the individual will receive ONE warning regardless of where they stand in the ban stacks, if they are found to be doing it again to any user after that; it get added to the ban stack.&#x20;

When they are given the warning, be sure to ban for 1 minute to log the warning.

### <mark style="color:violet;">**How to ban**</mark>

Before proceeding you should be doing the !b command to see how many previous bans they’ve had.

When you have the proper knowledge of how long it should it be; the format is:

!gameban \<Steam ID> \<Hours> \<Reason>

The length will be

1 hour

24 (1 day)

168  (1 week)

336 (2 weeks)

672 (1 month)

99999 (Perma)

Once it says they’ve been banned, go to the bans channel and upload your evidence there, If its a perm ban please make a thread.&#x20;

<mark style="color:violet;">**Banning a Hacker**</mark>

When you ban a player for hacking be sure you do !refund \<Hackers Steam ID>

So that any of the players they had killed recently, will get their points refunded.&#x20;

Kicking a Player

For this you would have to be in game, and should only be used in rare occasions of players needing to change their name, excessive spamming(chat) or to help nullify a heated chat where players are ignoring you.
