Meh, if there's popular support for it I'll include an S rank.
I'm in favour (not that I want it myself, but I think it should exist). I'm also in favour of it including penalties for prods and flaking like Dak's did, and I sure think it should propose some prodding guidelines (not necessarily mine, but something like that achieved through consensus).
Basically this, but make the prod time 24-36 hours, not counting weekends, with special exceptions for people that notify in advance (If not in advance, for a good reason.)
Next, determine what each rank means first:
S Rank: Special nomination required. Usually, S-Rankers take care for who is S-Ranked, so don't worry.
A: Very active in games, with minimal minor rule violations (1/quarter)
B: Active in games, with some minor rule violations (2-3/quarter)
C: Some activity in games, with a lot of minor rule violations (4/quarter) or one major rule violation, but not both.
D: Little activity in games, with a lot of minor rule violations (4+/quarter) and at some major rule violation (1-2/quarter).
F: None or almost no activity in games, with a serious number of minor rule violations (7+/quarter) and/or at least three major rule violations.
Having a + next to their rank followed by a number should indicate the number of games that player replaced in:
A+: Replaced into 1 game
A+3: Replaced into 3 games
Etc.
The number of games a player was in during that quarter and the previous quarter should be notated along side their name, so that the "quality" of their rank may be accessed:
S-Rank:
Webadict - 13, 20 Games
Vector - 16, 16 Games
Etc.
Minor rule violations:
-Being prodded: This includes lurking and active lurking. Lurking can be defined by the mod, but the best way to go is 24 hours gives the first warning, and the next 24 hours is a rules violation.
-PMing another player: Assuming that this doesn't break any major rules and is not allowed in the game. The PMed player should quote the PM to the thread, and the PMing player will receive a rules violation upon mod review.
-Not playing to win: This isn't about bad play: It's purposefully making your team lose. This can be anywhere from claiming you're mafia, to ratting out your partners, to lynching yourself. These are assuming your win condition or some sort of goal is not reached by doing this.
Major rule violations:
-Quoting the mod: Posting anything related to your role or role information straight from the source. This should result in a modkill in almost all situations. Paraphrasing is allowed.
-Forced Replacement: Lurking so often or so much that you are forcibly replaced.
-Editing a Post: Editing a post is not allowed. The mod may give any rules violation for this, but the standard should be a major rules violation.
For rules, all mods are allowed to define their own rules however they want, so long as it is done in the first page. However, unless the mod prefers different rules, the following rules will be the default:
Lurking: Set to 24 Hours. Warning the first time, minor rule violation the second, forced replacement/major rule violation the third.
Quoting the mod: Not Allowed
PMing: Not Allowed
Editing: Not Allowed
Can everyone agree to this? I actually might start that thread, as I can easily maintain it so long as only serious business is posted in the thread.
