We have processed the appeal of Ally's lifetime ban. After considering all the evidence and following due process, we uphold the recommendation of a lifetime ban.

TOs, please check your email for an update to the ban list for May 2020. We recommend an indefinite ban for the player Hoover from Florida.

Effective immediately, all instances of sexual violence will be punished by lifetime ban. This includes but is not limited to the recently released decision regarding Mew2Queen.

In last night's quarterly email, the COC has advised bans on two additional players: Captain Zack and Mew2Queen. Read our FAQ here: bit.ly/SSBCOCFAQ

What is an appeal? See Section 8 of our Code of Conduct bit.ly/CODE20XX An appeal can be opened when new evidence is introduced. The case is reviewed with the new evidence. An appeal does not guarantee any given outcome.

Join us at TONIGHT at 5pm Pacific/7pm Central/8pm Eastern for the second part of our sexual violence panelist training. All TOs are encouraged to attend and the public is welcome as well. twitch.tv/SSBConductPanel

We ran a poll about this. Admittedly only 220 votes, but: Ppl want transparency & accountability so that they can protect themselves. But, giving specific details invokes legal probs plus the wrath of the entire internet, which is the cancel culture we’re trying to replace.

"One way that rape culture is perpetuated is through our belief in rape myths. It's time for us to call each other in about these toxic ideas."

Public shaming & callout culture are effective against public figures who have done harm. But the destructive costs are high, especially when it’s wielded against “regular people.” How do we as a community weigh the costs & benefits of shaming/callouts? youtube.com/watch?v=Yq7Eh6JT…
