Fellow South Pacificans,

Apart from our usual game-related business here in The South Pacific, there are sometimes decisions to be made that are hard but necessary as they impact the safety not of our region in the NationStates sphere, but of the real-life players involved in it. This is one of those situations.

After an administrative ban in Europeia, the forum administration and Discord administration teams have come together to evaluate a myriad of evidence regarding a situation between Sam and another player. This evidence included the evidence initially gathered by Europeia, a detailed statement by Sam himself, as well as TSP-specific evidence including interactions with other regional members. The evidence gathered was damning, and our conclusion was the same as Europeia's.

We hereby announce that Sam111/SJS Republic is banned from The South Pacific and all associated in-game and off-site platforms for at least one year.
