Accidents & Reversibility
There have been some cases where the wrong member has been accidentally repkilled on a count of mistaken identity, which could possibly ruin a member's experience on the forum. This is generally met with an apology from Omniscient, but not always. There have been some events in which notable members have been repkilled due to either staff members being compromised or a group participating in widespread rule breakages, such as when the former group 'Root' amassed a group thread-bumping scheme, which is against the site rules.
