    Lately, people have been abusing glitches, claiming it's fine and that they can't be banned for it.
    Since glitching is against the rules, they should be punished.
    Here's what I'm thinking.
    Since I only remember these 3 right now, that's all there is. However, if I get extra suggestions I'll add that.
    Grenade glitching:
    1. Warning (player receives it when logging in)
    2. Banned for 1 hour
    3. Banned for 1 day
    4. Banned for 1 week
    5. Banned for 1 month
    6. Permanently banned
    Map glitching:
    1. Warning (player receives it when logging in)
    2. Warning (player receives it when logging in)
    3. Warning (player receives it when logging in)
    4. Banned for 30 minutes
    5. Banned for 1 hour
    6. Banned for 1 day
    7. Banned for 1 week
    8. Banned for 1 month
    9. Permanently banned from War
    Chat filter bypass:
    1. Warning (player receives it when logging in)
    2. Warning (player receives it when logging in)
    3. Muted for 30 minutes
    4. Muted for 1 hour
    5. Muted for 1 day
    6. Muted for 1 week
    7. Muted for 1 month
    8. Permanently muted
    When a warning (if you will) is received, it will expire after one month.
    Also....
    Basically you could appeal to be pardoned. Depending on your actions you would be pardoned or not pardoned.

    There should definitely be punishments for abusing glitches.
    More suggestions in the comments would be nice.

    Why no mute? We have a mute command for a reason

    I think this is a good idea, considering glitching isn't punishable by report unless a staff member is on the server. However, I think you're giving way too many chances before a permanent ban is given. Here's how the system should be for glitching offences.
    1. Automated login warning (if a proper report is filed on them).
    2. Temp-ban of one day.
    3. Temp-ban of a week.
    4. Permanent ban.
    I think this would be better because they would've received plenty of warnings and consequences to re-consider their actions.

    But there are times when people accidentally glitch, or (more common) when they use out of map glitches, not realizing it's OOM. (newbies)
    Will edit though.

    I said if the report was accepted. Plus, there would have to be sufficient evidence in the report that they intentionally glitched.

    Edit: For nuke glitching, I guess they can accept reports for those if they re-add instant nukes.

    Oh. However, it's quite hard to prove that it was an intentional glitch, at times.
    Said person may not say a thing because he/she is a newbie, and a purposeful glitcher could say they're sorry when they're really not.

    I like it, but there must be a special way of appeal.

    How would you do it? Would there be an ingame hub appeal system? A separate forums section?

    A new forums section under Support.
    It would need a different format.

    Here's my idea: if in your inventory, you have a grenade and break a block, it sends you out of the game, and at spawn.

    No; you haven't even thrown the grenade yet. Plus this method may not work too well, as opposed to just despawning the grenade.

    I agree with everything except for:
    1. Permanently banned from War only until glitch is fixed
    If youre doing a glitch that many times and have that many warnings, you shouldnt be let off the hook just because the glitch you were using was fixed. Letting them come back would just give them another chance to abuse different glitches.

    I thought I crossed that out earlier. No worries, edited.
    The only issue is that it may be a newbie accidentally going OOM, then using the spot often because he/she doesn't know it's out of map.

    Yeah, but im sure a mod would atleast verbally warn them before taking any drastic measures so itll probably pan out properly

    People should actually get a message in a chat spamming repeatly: " WARNING YOU'RE OUT OF MAP, PLEASE RETURN IN. "

    Also if you venture to far OOM then you will be teleported to your teams spawn, perhaps we could shrink the border to the map boundaries

    This is a great idea! Lots of people would b mad at me tho because I currently have 20+ screens of rule breakers for war alone.
