The staff decided the last time this happened unanimously that the next reported incident of this would incur a ban on the person who did it. This shouldn't need to be a rule and should fall under the don't be a dick to other players clause.
The staff as a whole agreed that it's a shitty thing to do and the next incident of it would be met with a punishment.
The Staff all agreeing on something doesn't make it public knowledge. It should be communicated what is/isn't punishable, and what punishments roughly will be incurred. Drop bans were only even intended, originally, for people leeching in events, as brass said in the thread he announced them. If it was communicated with the community that queuing for survive is a drop-bannable offense, obviously yeet wouldn't have done it.
You could argue that it falls under the don't be a dick to other players clause, but you could also argue that (unrelatedly) Granabis not giving Yeet his Hydra Aug that he mistakenly listed for much too little on the market is the same scenario, or that people who buy flashbacks off the market from new players for insanely low prices are also being dicks. It should just be clearly communicated what will or won't net you punishment when it comes to "being a dick to other people."
