Sometimes some of the @s detain people for random reasons. Not mentioning name just so I don't get into a problem. It would be helpful if the rules page http://en.strikermanager.com/wiki/index.php?title=NORMAS_DE_USO clearly say what leads to a detainment. 3 days not able to touch the team could cost an entire season so I feel @s should be more responsible and check if the detainment reason is valid.

Quoting so your post remains as you wrote it when I saw this.

I see three sides of this post.

1) It should be clearly listed what will and will not lead to sanctions of any kind.

2) @s should be more certain when applying sanctions of any kind.

3) Your specific case (referred to in your post as you were given a 72-hour sanction for breaching forum etiquette).

To point 1, I don't see this being necessary. @s already have explicit permission to handle in-game issues as they see fit under the rules of the game (that you agree to by continuing to play the game).
I can inform you that a) in serious cases @s do discuss appropriate action b) the owners of the game do look into complaints, and c) there is a mandate written on the @s forum (hidden for all non-admin users) which dictates how issues should be handled and gives standard punishments for pretty much all incidents. You should also know that the punishments suggested in this mandate are, in many cases, more strict than the punishments most @s actually give.
However, I decided to take this suggestion partly onboard and I have now updated the Forum etiquette page to explicitly state that inappropriate use of the forum has the potential to be a sanctionable offence:

Additionally, the rules of the game indicate with ** the situations which are likely to be treated like serious transgressions:

To point 2. As I mentioned above, @s discuss cases, and this includes when they are not certain how an incident should be handled. As to whether the @s should be responsible, @s are firstly chosen with, among other attributes, this as a point of merit. As to "more" responsible, I'd like to hear your suggestions as to how volunteer workers can work better. If any development to the system is required, please include relevant costing. If additional time is required, please be very specific how this will be calculated. If you are unable to provide this very reasonable information I will assume you will be happy to pay for the work yourself and take on any additional administrative work for free, for no recognition.

To your specific case, point 3, you will recall from your long experience in the game that @s are not allowed to discuss specific incidents. However, I am happy to hear that you are aware of the fundamentals of what makes a punishment a punishment. That is, it's a less desirable outcome than if you had not committed the offence.

I look forward to your costings and time estimates to how the volunteer @s can work more responsibly.
