Ever since the wiki began, user have interacted with each other outside Sonic News Network. Mostly for games, to know each other more, and for a means of new social interaction. This is all good, but sometimes bad things happen off site with the same users on site.


 * What happens when 2 users start insulting each other on another site (such as Skype, Steam, and XAT)? You would imagine that would effect how they interact with each other on SNN? It has to. The sad thing is the victimized user can't do anything about the user who attack him/her because it's 'outside the bonds of SNN'. I think SNN has the right to take small action towards these events. Warning users, talking with them, and trying to find a solution. If nothing does happen, then that type of behavior comes onto SNN; which results in a ban. It has happened before.
 * Should admins and mods discuss bans on anther site? If a user is banned, he deserves to know the process the people who banned him went through. It shouldn't be keep a secret (besides, what could be hiding besides names?).

The only thing we do now about off-site interaction is if someone was banned on another wiki on wikia. It shouldn't be just that. I'm not saying the way you act on other sites can get you banned here, but we don't want to have that behavior here. Of course, if a site had a way to report users, you should go to that.

So, whatdoya think?
