Teaming and crossteaming, why?

[CommunistCactus]

This isn't about OP, Its about teamers...

Are you saying teamers are giving the staff a hard time?

Yes, as it is not allowed, and they are still doing it.

I know, but I don't think posting that here has much to do with the main topic of this thread

It does.

If the staff are really busy, why bother them with banning teamers for a day? I've seen staff here say "Well it's not really that big of a deal*" as the explanation for the 1 day max punishment, so why bother having it against the rules? It seems like a waste of time to take up the mods' time with looking at reports of teamers and then giving them a joke punishment and repeating every day or 2 when they cone back; ecpecially if there are a lot of reports of (I assume) of things like racism(or similar) in chat and hackers and whatnot(I'm done assuming) being submitted all the time. If the two extremes are letting teamers team or giving them long punishments, the middleground(what it is now) seems like the worst of both(More work for staff, while they are basically free to do it all the time).

*- I know it wasn't in those exact words, but it was to that effect.

It does.

The point here is about banning teamers, not about not teaming.

Punishments stack up every time so their first ban will be 1 day and their second maybe be a week and so on. ( don't know the exact times)

(sorry im late lol)

But from what I heard teamng is always a 1 day ban, no matter if its their second time or 20th its a 1 day ban for teaming.

It should be stacking up if you ask me, but I don't know which one of the two it is
