BioWare Social Network sets strict policy against abuse towards staff

Posted By | On 01st, Mar. 2012

After the announcement of the From Ashes DLC for Mass Effect 3, a lot of backlash from fans and critics alike has followed- us included– even though BioWare has given several justifications. But it looks like this hate has gone too far, and BioWare fans have resorted to personal abuse of BioWare moderators and staff members. Keeping that in mind, BioWare Social Network has released a new set of ToU, which strictly prohibits the aforementioned activities.

Have a look:

Important update to site rules & code of conduct :

Effective immediately there is a zero tolerance policy on any form of abuse towards staff, moderators or other Community members.

Anyone posting a personal attack on staff, moderators or other Community members will, at the sole discretion of staff or moderators, be banned from the BioWare Social Network without notice and is no longer welcomed.

While we continue to value all of our customers and fans, participation in the BSN and engaging with staff and like-minded community members is – to be abundantly clear – a privilege, and not a right. Members may continue to discuss and critique our games and products in a civil manner, but any form of discussion targeted at an individual will not be tolerated. New and existing members who cannot adhere to the code of conduct, or maintain a civil demeanor at all times, are encouraged instead to contact customer support for any game related issues they may have.

We have made important changes to the Site Rules and Code of Conduct, and recommend that all our users review them by clicking on the link at the top of this notice. By continuing to use this site you are accepting the Site Rules and agree to follow these rules.

Mass Effect 3 releases on March 6 for the Xbox 360, PS3 and PC. Stay tuned.
