"q. Forum ban. Forum members that get banned under the forum rules can also be subject to IP perm ban on the server and discord server, they will not be allowed on the server / discord server until the forum ban is removed. Those who are perm banned on both the server and forum can file an appeal via email - see totalfreedom.boards.net/thread/5939"
It has been stated in multiple other cases that the server, discord and forums are separate, but this rule dictates that for some reason, if you're banned on the forums you get banned on the server? I am aware of the wording of "Can also be subject" however certain admins have played to the fact that this rule is quite vague and have just banned forum banned players from the server.
Possibility 1: Remove the rule completely and make it so that if you are banned on the forums you may still play on the server, provided you are following the rules of course
Possibility 2: Clarify the rule to the following (Just a suggestion, please reply to this with any suggested amendments):

q. Forum ban. Forum members that get banned under the forum rules can also be subject to IP perm ban on the server and discord server, provided they don't abide by the conduct policy in game, they are more easily eligible for perm ban (eg. if they break a section 2 offense while forum banned). Those who are perm banned on both the server and forum can file an appeal via email - see totalfreedom.boards.net/thread/5939
