So you got punished...
No one likes the disciplinary side of life. Your Monarchy team understands how frustrating it is to get probation or a suspension and not know the details. To protect all parties involved, The Monarchy team does not release details of exactly what caused a punishment. Sometimes, if the person involved still does not feel safe, the details aren’t even released at an appeal. This is rare but has happened. The good news is, you at least have an appeal option. Below, you will find the section of our Bylaws that outline the details of the appeal process, when you need to appeal by, and how to appeal if you don’t choose to do so right away or if you don’t get the result you’d have liked. After that section, you will find a form you can fill out, letting your Monarchy team know exactly how you’d like to proceed.
Bylaws
2.8 Any member thus suspended may appeal their suspension at the next scheduled general membership meeting. Such an appeal is not subject to section 4.2.7 and may be voted on immediately. A simple majority vote of active members is sufficient to repeal a suspension, either at this meeting, or at any subsequent meeting where it has been introduced as an item to be voted on.
2.8.1 In the event the althing appeal fails, the suspended player may request an appeal no sooner than 6 months from the date of the last appeal. They must notify the monarchy 14 days before the althing they wish to have the appeal at.
2.9 A suspended member shall forfeit any dues paid during the time of suspension and is liable to the group for assessments or fees as a result of obligations incurred by the member prior to suspension.
2.10 A suspended member shall be barred from participating in all group functions, including general membership meetings and any functions of subsidiary groups, with the exception of the right to appeal their suspension at the next general membership meeting after it is issued.
2.11 A suspended member shall have all privileges which have been suspended reinstated the first day after the suspension has concluded.
2.12 If necessary, the Financial Officer and Adjudication Chief acting in agreement may suspend the Operations Officer, or may repeal a suspension they issued under this clause. This is otherwise identical to a suspension issued in agreement with the Operations Officer.
2.13 In the event a suspension is repealed, the decision of the officer(s) to repeal is to be ratified by voting members at the next Althing by simple majority vote.
