So, as everyone's no doubt aware, backseat modding can be a problem in 17, as can peanut gallery comments during staff action such as ban appeals. This was brought up in the recent thread about 17 as a help only room, but was never taken forward or formalised.
Backseat modding consists of actions such as non-staff acting as staff or ops in 17, offering incorrect or false help, or interrupting staff when they're busy helping or dealing with a problem. Peanut gallery comments involve non-staff users butting in during disc action and ban appeals with unnecessary or unhelpful comments.
Both have been dealt with by kicks or such in the past but the purpose of this thread is to formalise the procedure. After discussion in opchat and SSSC there is apparently consensus to start handing out 24-hour bans for the offenses. Discussion and suggestions can be had in here and if no other proposals are offered within a week it'll become standardised.
