WHAT IS IT ABOUT?
Although the term Zero Tolerance is used in different contexts and scenarios, at Generación Xbox we apply it with a single purpose, to ensure the peace and safety of the visitors who make up a community like ours. That’s why the forum and web moderators will apply these guidelines whenever any of the following actions compromise the good atmosphere among readers.
The definition is very good, but we’re going to explain it a little better.
WHEN IS ZERO TOLERANCE APPLIED?
To better understand how it works, there’s no better way than to do it with practical cases that will be familiar to almost everyone.
- Visitors who insult or belittle others, either directly or indirectly, will be warned up to a maximum of 3 times. We consider an insult to be any word that, in its context, tries to ridicule or make someone feel inferior, whether by appealing to their intelligence, race or ethnicity, sexual condition or religion. This rule applies to veiled insults, which will be pursued by Generación Xbox moderators.
- Messages containing homophobic, sexist, pornographic, racist, terrorism-related, or any other activity that generates discomfort among the community will be deleted. It’s not necessary to mention a user to delete the message if it contains explicit and bad-taste content. The user can be banned after being warned.
- Posting links with the intention of SPAM and of no interest to the community is strictly forbidden.
- Visitors will not be able to harass, bully, or perform annoying actions towards other users through private messages or mentions in comments.
- Comments that deviate from the main topic of the thread or news will be redirected by the moderator. In case of ignoring their authority, they may close the comments, warn the offenders, or even ban them if deemed necessary.
- Any other negative behavior that promotes a bad atmosphere or is criticized by a significant part of the community. In these cases, toxic negativity is applied, and it’s up to the moderator to apply the relevant sanction.
- It is not allowed to post links to third-party pages in the comments of our news, unless permission is requested from the moderation or administration of Generación Xbox.
SANCTIONS
Not complying with the rules carries the risk of receiving sanctions. We understand three types of sanctions that must be mandatory for the entire community, without exceptions.
- Warning: As the RAE says, it is a warning of a future sanction in case of persisting in an error or fault. A public or private notice.
- Comment restriction: For a season, you will not be able to participate in Generación Xbox, you will only be able to read us.
- Ban: Bans on Generación Xbox are permanent with few exceptions. But generally, when a user is banned, they are banned forever; and this includes their IP and multinicks.
REINSERTION POLICY
At Generación Xbox, we believe that people sometimes make mistakes in the heat of the moment, and that’s why we carry out a policy of reinsertion of visitors. This means that after a while, if a user returns under another account, they will have the privilege of entering the community under temporary observation to verify that they will no longer incur problems with the rest of the participants.
Any questions or suggestions you have, you can contact us directly through the contact form of Generación Xbox.
