If it happens again, then yes.
Even though the rule change is because of him?Okay
BTW, I'm working on adding prefix-functionality to the forum (for topics that include spoilers as well as topics that are NSFW), so this kind of thing can hopefully be avoided.

The rule is being made specifically because of Guts' spoilers. That's a bit different from a new rule being made coincidentally just after Guts posted spoilers
You guys are being far too lenient. He even said it was malicious so punish him for it!

harassment(either harris-meant or huh-rass-meant) n. the act of systematic and/or continued unwanted and annoying actions of one party or a group, including threats and demands. The purposes may vary, including racial prejudice, personal malice, an attempt to force someone to quit a job or grant sexual favors, apply illegal pressure to collect a bill, or merely gain sadistic pleasure from making someone fearful or anxious. Such activities may be the basis for a lawsuit if due to discrimination based on race or sex, a violation on the statutory limitations on collection agencies, involve revenge by an ex-spouse, or be shown to be a form of blackmail ("I'll stop bothering you, if you'll go to bed with me"). The victim may file a petition for a "stay away" (restraining) order, intended to prevent contact by the offensive party. A systematic pattern of harassment by an employee against another worker may subject the employer to a lawsuit for failure to protect the worker.harassment. (n.d.) Burton’s Legal Thesaurus, 4E.

2. It's also possible to enable thread authors to have extended privileges (edit, delete, and lock). This is also something I'll be considering and also testing in future Anarchy events. It's severely vulnerable to abuse, as is.

Appointing a general monitor who frequents gaming would be a better choice, and I will be considering expanding the staff in a week or two, after I get a feel on how much adding the two monitors helps out with the workload.

Kupo was pretty active in that thread, it's not like he could've done much.QuoteIt's severely vulnerable to abuse, as is.How? Also, have you decided on the severity of the punishment regarding future spoilers?
