Notification Abuse

Taking actions which produce notifications for users which are excessive in either their rate, their quantity, or their lack of meaningfulness, is prohibited.

Therefore, spam-pings are allowed, but only when deemed by the Cabal officials to be clearly well-founded per the above standards. Such cases will be very rare, and will usually only be those cases explicitly permitted by the Cabal officials.

Vicarious Violation

On many platforms, including Discord, regulation of the notification system is mostly handed-off to venue owners, thus they bear some responsibility for how their users use the system.

Thus, if a user abuses the system, they are not only personally responsible for the problem, but are also causing the server to be partially responsible for it.

This significantly increases the seriousness of the problem, and positively presents the need to prohibit these actions, even sometimes more harshly than the raw actions may seem to warrant.
