Greetings Epicmafia community,

I've spoken to Cody and we've come to the conclusion that it'd be beneficial to both the site mods and Sandbox if Sandbox is given a bit more independence. We will now be able to (within reason) moderate the lobby as we see fit, which is a good thing as it allows us to suit the rules more to Sandbox itself. For example I'm sure you all saw the user Sanctity when they were around, everybody knew that they were a banned user and all they did was cause trouble, recently Sanctity was banned for being abc, ban evading yet again. Had this independence been given to us sooner, we would have been able to ban Sanctity from Sandbox much earlier, but now we can prevent future cases like this, and generally have more say over what happens in Sandbox than before.

Another welcome change is that Sandbox moderators will now be able to moderate reports that happen in Sandbox. If you report someone through Sandbox lobby so that it has the little tag "in Sandbox" on, or if you explicitly state in your report that it was in Sandbox (you may need to message Sandbox mods if you do it like this, as it won't show up in Sandbox reports that way) myself and the Sandbox mod team will comment a verdict on the report and site mods will handle the punishment assuming that there is one. Site mods have been notified of this change, so it's effective immediately.

If you have any queries about this, you may PM them to me and I'll answer them to the best of my ability.
