Your honour,

Answering your questions:

The ban from TNP was not a major part of our deliberations, since we were far more concerned about his actions in TSP. However, it was brought up a couple of times, mainly as evidence that Malayan Singapura was unlikely to change for the better.

Individually, the bragging posts were not considered to be spam, merely impolite. However, the sustained occurrence of bragging posts was considered to be spamming.

Due to the nature of the RMB, with a very wide variety of posts, various conversations beginning sporadically, and a large turnover of nations, we do not (and didn't at the time) have a formal warning system in place. The RMB has always been moderated on a case-by-case basis, taking into account a player's past history. Given that the very reason for moderating the RMB is to make it a better place for the people who use it, the opinions of RMBers, particularly those who are long-term or regular users, are taken into account by the LC.

At the time we had no RMB etiquette rules. This situation was one of the reasons we made one, though it wasn't until after the banjection that it was voted on and formally adopted.

Although at the time there was no official source of inforomation regarding the rules, Malayan Singapura was repeatedly informed of the reasons he was being warned, including several times by government officials.
