Hello After Hours Community.
I have had a very fun past week explaining to various parties, including Facepunch, why AHG is not some evil cabal of predatory doxxers. Now that things seem to have settled down, I would like to announce some new policies to ensure compliance with Facepunch's ruling.

Many of you are familiar with the player "Chad" from SGM. Under no reason should anyone from AHG:
Disturbing Content
Hate Speech

Many of you are familiar with the player "Chad" from SGM. Under no reason should anyone from AHG:
- Make contact with Chad in any way
- Post pictures/personal information of Chad, regardless of if he intentionally made it public before
Disturbing Content
- Any discussion of CSAM or sexual assault is completely prohibited. Although we have warned before banning for this in the past, our new protocol is that this will be an immediate ban. The lengths will vary based on context, but you can expect this to be anywhere from a 16 week to a permanent ban.
- Baseless accusations of pedophilia will be a permanent ban on first offense. This includes accusations without evidence, or taking someone's words out of context to make them look like a predator.
- If you have concerns about inappropriate conduct, do not publicly confront the individual. Report them to staff and we will forward it to the relevant law enforcement agencies. Public accusations can lead to large amount of bad outcomes ranging from defamation/witch hunting to potentially damaging a criminal case against the person in question.
- The threshold for content to be "sexualized" is being substantially reduced. As a general rule, if you have to ask, don't share it.
Hate Speech
- Sarcastic hate speech will now be treated as regular hate speech. We have given some leeway in the past, but this can look bad to outsiders who don't understand it's sarcasm.
