July 7th, 2016 - Imperium Romanum: Barbarians (Map Game) dies after a drama-filled conflict involving both players and map game staff. Mappers soon discuss the possibility of "map game bans", or not allowing certain users to either staff map games, or both play/staff map games. The admins soon discuss this.

July 9th, 2016 - After some discussion, the admins decide to implement a "map game grounding" system, named so due to the popularity of the "grounded" thread game. If a user was misbehaving according to the newly created "map game guidelines" page (linked to on the Mapperdonian Handbook), then someone with Discussions Mod privileges or higher could "ground" them. They would post on the user's message wall saying they're either "map game staff grounded" or "full map game grounded" (self explanatory) until a certain expiration date, and would edit Batran's post on the Admin/Chatmod board called "Official Map Game Grounding Log" to include the user, grounding type, and expiration date. A closed forum thread is used instead of a page to make it Discussions Mod+. If a user is caught breaking the grounding by staffing or joining (full grounding only) a map game, they are blocked from the wiki for 2 weeks.
