All,
I appear to be getting warrant appeals with an increasing frequency. Usually people who have been warranted and take it straight to imms. However, the old school procedure involving warrant appeals is as follows:
When you feel you have been unjustly warranted, you can appeal to the clan ombudsman. If a clan doesn't have an ombudsman, take it up with a councillor. A decision on the appeal has to be made within 1 week RL and pending that decision, you may not be hunted.
Should you feel the clan ombudsman/councillor did not make the correct decision, then you may appeal to the clan's imm/ or Staff.
This really is an area that players can handle just fine and where in most cases they will do the right thing and overturn unjust warrants. Please, if you feel you have been unjustly warranted, take it up with players in the other clan first!
