Server - |1| DarkRP
Rank - Mod
Reason - Breaking base rules
Story - I Scanned Shady's house to find he had printers. I subsequently raided it only to find that one fading door was on top of another. This completely breaks Zarp's rules on fading doors 1. It makes it harder to raid 2. turns a single fading door into a double fading door (therefore in effect Shady had 4 fading doors breaking the 2 door limit) 3. while raiding you get stuck in one of the fading doors while you try to take down the other door as one reappears. This guy was afk at the time so I experienced no mod abuse, yet later when he came back I confronted it to him. He seemed to not care and shrugged it off claiming he broke no rules and a complete ignorance to RP etiquette.

This is his first layer of doors. I took down one of them and you can see the right side remains. The gap to the left is impossible to get through making this a double fading door, thus breaking base rules.

This shows his second set of fading doors closed. You can clearly see they overlap.

These two show that even if you only take down one door another remains so you can never pass by. Also if a thief were to raid via lock pick he would get stuck in the fading doors as they reappear (It even happened to me as SAS)

Other comments - I have seen recently more mods and admins are beginning to go back to RP and not be staff-on-duty. This is all fine but it seems they don't know the rules themselves and I have seen (and have proof) of 3-4 admins basing breaking numerous rules. I'm not going to post it as it wont get anywhere, as shown by previous posts on the forums showing an abuse to powers. There seems to be a level of hierarchy in the some of the staffs minds where they think the can make up the rules and break them because they have the 'powers' to do so; a clear level of ignorance to the loyal players on this server. I hope you take this seriously and I expect some backlash from certain staff members as I partially challenge you in this post.
This clearly shows that he has stacked faiding doors. I think something should be done about this. I also think you ( milky ) are right, some staff aren't aware of the rules; even I didn't know all the rules until I read them a few days ago after the new ones were added, specially that they were recently edited. I think something should be done about this, maybe grouping staff and asking them to read the rules then ask then random questions until they know them all. I understand that we have too many staff and only a few Super Admins who don't have the time to do this, so I think Super admins should do this "training" for Admins and then the Admins that know all the rules from the first try can train the mods. I would also be willing to do all of this alone if one SA is willing to test me first or not.
Just a suggestion... tell me if you think I should make a thread for this in the suggestions section.
Back to the topic. Although, I think shady is a good mod i think this should be taken seriously and not ignored completely ( which rarely happens ).
