ISP was made to deal with silent alts: people like "ineverspeak" which were impossible to read because they only voted (yet they scumhunted and were not GTing).

It now has evolved slightly different, but honestly it's just the BS way to scrounge for a refund and a lot of mods misinterpret it especially the negligence part.

If you notice, there used to be a "2 day clause". That is because people shouldn't be theoretically punished because their stove was on fire and they had to leave for a bit (basically the two day clause would ensure that the person either vegged or was obviously just coming back at the last moment to vote/silent alt). There's a few problems with people intentionally exploiting that so it just became more case by case now. But regardless because of the way it's written and because lots of mods have no idea about the history of rules it's often times misinterpreted by them (see negligence threads every other day).

Pretty sure some mods would have banned brownpimp for ISP because of some of the ways he played but oh well. Things are at least heading back to the right direction thanks to people like Connor.

Can we ban people who turn dogs into sexual objects?

mafiagod is right to some extent. imo, you're more likely to get an ISP violation for afking/tabbing out for 5-10 minutes at a time than you are if you talk infrequently but you're there for the entire game.

My personal experience taught me that, ISP started out as not talking at all during one day and still voting after the fact. OR saying one to two lines in the beginning and then voting later without saying anything, resulting in a loss for your side.

It seems to have morphed into any lack of participation that results in a loss. i.e. not talking during the last three minutes when voting is crucial; not giving enough detail to your role when needed in order to persuade town to vote correctly.

As always, if you want the CORRECT answer, ask a current mod. Cause I am just a troll.

Regarding your last question: That person is already banned, Unfortunately he can still send messages and file reports. Please don't open suspicious messages at all.
