    Yeah, I don't really have much to say here. I did post that announcement and I thought it'd be funny to do so after I was asked by the marine in question to promote his youtube channel after he had killed the queen that round.

    Now that I have had time to look back and dwell on what I did, I want to point out that CO rulings state, "Announcements are to be informative to some extent, or in some way benefit marines. They are not for LRP remarks, or OOC information." The CO Council ruling doesn't specifically state that posts cannot be LRP so long as it conveys information or benefits marines. I understand what I posted may be considered LRP by some people but I did so to make a 'Queen dead. Find the rest and clean up.' announcement a little more funny and praise the PFC. Murphy Major in the process. The announcement though most of it being the remark of Murphy Major's 'old youtube channel' still provided the two key points I wished to convey to the marines. The Queen being dead and to start searching for what remained of the hive. As a side note I also did not promote the players actual Youtube nor do I know if they even have one.

    If council does decides to dish out punishment for something this minor, I think a heavy warning would be far too much and would simply prefer a normal warning given that this is a rather small issue.

    After going over this with the council, we've deduced that this isn't a valid whitelist issue that deserves a punishment, and doesn't break CO guidelines enough to warrant a warning or any punitive action taken against the accused.

    The announcement being LRP is subjective but we don't find it a good reason to punish a player over for something so minor, especially since the announcement did contain useful information and it was a simple quip.

    Denied - No WL action will be taken.
