Harassment is a punishable crime, as can be seen in the 'penalty_grid' helpfile.
If the harassment is sexual in nature, deletion is the punishment for the first
offense, siteban for the second offense. This sort of crime is illegal probably
everywhere in the world, and we do NOT tolerate it AT ALL here.
General harassment basically covers any other action directed towards a person, with
the deliberate intention to "bother", "worry", "torment", "annoy", etc. This
behaviour is unacceptable, on the grounds that this is supposed to be a GAME, and
thus enjoyable to anyone and everyone who wants to play. ANY comments that are
unwelcome should be reported to the immortals, and if the behaviour persists or
the perpetrator doesn't see the error of his/her ways after a discussion of the
offensive behaviour, punishment is inevitable.
