Violation Control
In the event where a Moderator or Head Mod needs to get involved in a situation with a player, such as a rule violation or emergency, staff members must be trained to operate and execute set guidelines in controlling the situation. Here, it will list the correct response for a given level. If in a situation where you are confused, don’t know what to do, or require assistance, calling for a Head Mod or Owner is the best thing you can do.
It is always a good idea to record or take screenshots of an event that requires a staff member’s assistance.
