What happened in the old forums, stays in the old forums.
We have new forums, new chat, Zanz is pushing out new cards as we speak.. the future is looking bright for Elements and this community.
In celebration of this, all previously IP banned users have a chance to rejoin the community, like I've seen some of them already do. Lets call it a "fresh start".
But there is one condition though. These users will be put under "special surveillance" for a month. During this time, if I see even one trolling/harrasing/flaming post from these individuals, they will be instantly IP banned from the forums AND the chat. And this time it's final. There is no "accidental trolling" in my opinion. Just read the rules and think every time before you press that "Post" button and you will be just fine.
If these previously banned individuals follow the rules and don't do anything dumb, the "special surveillance" will be deactivated and the user in question will once again be a regular member of this community.
I hope you take this peace offering and join us again without stirring any trouble. In the end we all just want to have fun playing and talking about Elements.
