Chat Bans
When simple chat bans are given, the accounts receive a chat ban based on a progressive system starting at 2 hours; and follows this pattern: 2, 2, 4, 4, 8, 8, 16, 16, [hours]. Eventually with enough chat bans it will turn to invisibility (see below).

Don't be afraid to ask questions in moderators chat. That's what it is there for.
Join in the discussions that happen there and read it daily to keep informed about what is happening with the game.
The majority of the information that is shared by Patrik can be shared with the player base as well. Exceptions to this would be decisions on banning/deleting players. And of course if Patrik says do not share the information.
If Patrik is asking for feedback; give him actual constructive criticism. He wants to hear your opinions on game mechanics and if something needs to be changed or not. Don't be afraid to speak up.
It is highly suggested that Moderators back read the Moderators chat room. This helps you keep informed of any changes that are occurring or any issues that are going on within the game itself.
Topics “Topics discussed and info shared within the MODs channel is considered secret and should not be shared outside of the group. (unless permission is given)
Information shared with supporters is considered public, we can't control leaking from the supporter group and everything shared there leaks eventually. However, we need to be mindful of supporters getting a perk of having information upfront. We, as MODs, should not actively spread the information. (unless permission given, or 2 days have passed)” -Patrik
