Community Moderators
Perfect World Entertainment makes use of community moderators to enforce the Perfect World Entertainment Community Rules and Policies. Moderators may remove the content of posts which are found to be in violation of these rules and policies. Community Moderators are selected by members of the PWE Community Team. The community may be asked to participate in selection of volunteer moderators, but the PWE Community Manager makes the final selection. When new moderators are needed, a PWE Community Manager will inform the community of how many moderators are needed and the application process. Community Moderators are unpaid volunteers, and their views and opinions may not reflect the views and opinions of PWE. In addition, as Community Moderators are not employees of PWE, their service to their community may be discontinued at any time they choose, or may be discontinued by a member of the PWE Community Team at any time and for any reason.
Any content that violates our Rules and Policies will be removed by a Community Moderator within a reasonable period of time after PWE becomes aware of it. Interpretation and enforcement of the Rules and Policies is at the sole and exclusive discretion of PWE.
If you violate these Rules and Policies and/or show a disregard for them, PWE and/or our community, your posting privileges may be suspended or terminated. PWE may, but is not obligated to, edit or remove any content without notice or appeal. These Rules and Policies are subject to change at any time without notice.
PWE Infraction Policy
The Vanilla infraction system identifies, and keeps track of violations of our Community Rules and Policies. The primary purpose of this infraction system is to maximize the enjoyment of the users of our forums. Please note that multiple or severe infractions result in a permanent ban.
PWE shall, in its sole discretion, identify infractions and assign the points value for each infraction. PWE reserves the right in its sole discretion to change the point value assigned to any infraction at any time. The following list sets forth some of the more common types of infractions. This list is not intended to be a complete list of all infractions as it is up to the discretion of PWE for deciding and assigning infractions.
Infraction points may only be given by a member of the PWE Community Team, and may not be given by a Community Moderator. Community Moderators may suggest, however, that a member of the community receive an infraction point. Infraction Points may be given for violating any of the Perfect World Entertainment Community Rules or Policies.
Disputing an Infraction
If you wish to dispute an infraction, you may file a 'forums and website' ticket on our support page located at: https://support.arcgames.com/. A member of our Community Team, other than the individual who gave the infraction, will review your dispute and make a final call on the matter. Once a dispute has been reviewed and actioned, the issue will be considered closed and not subject to additional review.
PWE has the final say on all aspects of this community. If you have a problem, you may make a complaint to PWE directly through our support site, and not publicly on the website. Creating threads or posts that question or reference administrative decisions or potential administrative decisions, such as post removals and thread closures, is not permitted.
Warnings

Warnings serve as friendly reminder of the Perfect World Entertainment Community Rules and Policies and have no bearing on your account. As such, warnings may not be disputed, and will never be overturned.
