# SECTION 20 – REDEMPTION PACK & 90-DAY PROBATION POLICY #### 20A – Purpose The Redemption Pack & Probation Policy provides a strictly controlled path for permanently banned members to re-enter the community.\ It ensures that any reinstatement occurs under heavy oversight, using a balance of accountability, structure, and discipline.\ This policy integrates directly with the Tier-Based Punishment System (see Section 19) to guarantee uniform enforcement. *** #### 20B – Redemption Pack Purchase Before a banned member can be considered for reinstatement, they must purchase a Redemption Pack.\ This purchase represents both a formal reinstatement request and a financial commitment to regain entry. Terms of Purchase * Redemption Pack purchases are subject to HQ approval; reinstatement is not guaranteed. * HQ reserves full discretion to approve or deny based on prior conduct, Tier history, and potential community impact. * Redemption Packs are limited to one per account, with no second purchase permitted under any circumstance. * Approved members are reinstated under mandatory 90-Day Probation. *** #### 20C – Overview of Probation Probation is a 90-day monitored trial period during which the reinstated member must prove lasting reform through consistent, rule-abiding behavior.\ It serves as a final opportunity to demonstrate respect for community standards while operating under zero-tolerance oversight. Probation Objectives * Evaluate the member’s ability to positively contribute. * Verify full compliance with all community and RP rules. * Ensure accountability through transparent tracking and enforcement. *** #### 20D – Probation Terms 1. Duration: Exactly 90 days from reinstatement approval. 2. Full Reset: All characters, assets, and prior reputation are permanently deleted. The member begins entirely fresh. 3. Single Use: Redemption Packs are one-time only; a second reinstatement is impossible. 4. Monitoring: Managers conduct oversight, activity checks, and performance evaluations throughout the period. 5. Conduct Expectation: Members must follow every rule without exception and maintain exemplary behavior. *** #### 20E – How Probation Works During the 90-day term: * The member’s activity and tickets are monitored daily by Managers. * Regular progress reviews may be scheduled to discuss compliance. * Any infraction triggers an immediate staff review and Tier classification under Section 19. * Members must report concerns or disputes directly to Head Management (Head Manager), bypassing lower staff ranks. *** #### 20F – Integration with Tier System Probationary members remain fully subject to the Tier 1 – Tier 8 Punishment System, but enforcement follows a modified zero-tolerance structure. | Penalty Count (while on Probation) | Typical Tier Range | Outcome | | ---------------------------------- | ------------------ | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | Penalty 1 | Tier 1 – Tier 4 | Formal documented action (warning → timeout → temporary ban) depending on severity. Member remains on probation under review. | | Penalty 2 | Tier 5 – Tier 7 | Immediate and non-appealable permanent ban (Tier 7). All privileges and redemption eligibility revoked. | Clarifications * Each penalty on probation must be logged as a Tier violation for transparency. * The two-penalty cap replaces the normal three-strike progression for the probation term. * Staff may escalate directly to Tier 7 for egregious or malicious behavior without issuing Penalty 1 first. * Tier 8 (Character Wipe) may only apply later if the member is ever re-admitted under extraordinary approval. *** #### 20G – Probation Enforcement Guidelines * Probationary strikes are final, non-negotiable, and irreversible. * Staff may not dismiss, reduce, or alter any Tier logged during probation. * Once two penalties are recorded — regardless of Tier level — the member is permanently banned (Tier 7). * No appeals, unban packs, or reviews are allowed after a probation termination. *** #### 20H – Consequences of Probation Violations If a probationary member incurs two disciplinary actions within the 90-day period: * Immediate Tier 7 Permanent Ban (Non-Appealable) is applied. * All progress, assets, and status are wiped permanently. * Redemption Pack eligibility is forever revoked. * Member forfeits all right to future reinstatement or appeal. *** #### 20I – Preventing Staff Bias To protect fairness and community trust: * Staff are prohibited from interfering with probation enforcement or attempting to remove strikes. * All Tier entries must include evidence and justification within staff logs. * Any staff member found tampering with probation records faces internal disciplinary action. * Probationary members report only to Managers and Head Management for oversight and clarification. *** #### 20J – Importance of Probation The probation system: * Reinforces accountability and fairness within the redemption process. * Prevents favoritism, leniency, or abuse of discretion. * Provides a clear final opportunity for genuine reform while preserving community integrity. Probation is not a loophole — it is a last chance. Successful completion marks the member as “Reformed”, restoring standard standing and eligibility for regular activities. *** #### 20K – Conclusion The Redemption Pack & Probation Policy defines a transparent, consistent, and zero-tolerance process for reinstating previously banned members.\ By linking probation directly to the Tier Punishment System and enforcing a strict two-penalty limit, the community maintains both discipline and fairness — offering redemption without compromising its core standards. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
