The donor guidelines SHOULD be linked to them when they are on the paying page to buy Donor.
If they were, it wasn't obvious, and I may have missed it. I paid via PayPal, so it could be easily accessible via the credit card section.

I actually think that's pretty strong and clear. If you're being an idiot (i.e. slurs or spamming) and you get gagged by anyone regardless of if it's a donor or not, and you ungag/unmute yourself early - that's not a legitimate reason to use your powers. If you didn't get legitimately gagged/muted, then that wouldn't count no?
I agree but the 13 YO with mom's credit card may not be as comprehensive of this particular concept than an adult player. I feel that if a staff member has a particular line they can point to in the guidelines, it could make for less arguments when enforcing (probably not, but one can hope)
My opinion is spelling out a few clarifications couldn't hurt things.

I had a situation recently where two players were RDMing every round, and a staff member was online, but was AFK. I didn't want to donor-abuse, so I let them continue until the staff member was moved to spec automatically. At that point I kicked the naughties.

I would recommend the following changes be made, to help clarify a donor's role in certain situations

Disciplinary Commands: 



[*]These powers should only be used if

  • The target is someone you know and is in on the joke. You will be punished if they do not want to be a target.
  • There is a legitimate reason to use your powers (ex. CHANGE TO: someone is screaming or using slurs)
  • ADD: Staff are unable to handle the issue (ex. no staff online/are AFK or incident happening in spectator while staff alive)




[*]!gag - !gag <player name> 

  • mutes the players microphone
  • !ungag to remove
  • ADD: Do not ungag yourself (or another player) when a staff member or donor does the gag (except for joke gags)

[*]!mute - !mute <playername>
  • stops player from typing in chat (does not affect radio binds or asay/psay)
  • !unmute to remove
  • ADD: Do not unmute yourself (or another player) when a staff member or donor does the mute (except for joke mutes)

[*]!kick- !kick <playername> <reason>
  • Don't kick people unless they are MassRDMing. or they are consistently RDMing.
  • kicks player from server
  • Add: Only kick people if staff are not online or are AFK
  • Utility Commands:
  • Used for game function
  • !vote - !vote <vote name/question><option 1><option 2> etc
    • starts a server vote
    • see Guidelines above
    • SUGGESTION: Frankly, an example of how to use the vote function may be helpful for noobs like me. But guideline wise this is clear enough
  • Fun Commands: 
    • !queue
      • queues a song for the end of the round
      • must have a url that ends in .mp3
      • DO NOT queue songs that are too loud, overly racist, bigotrist, or play any +18 plus content (ie: moaning, audio from porn, etc...)
      • ADD: Donor is responsible for the music they queue. If another player asks to have a song queued, play it before queueing to ensure it follows the guidelines.
  • To run a command on yourself either type !command <fullname> or command ^
