Siege Rules vs. Club Penguin Rules
By Novanoid
Rainbow Six Siege is a M (PEGI 18) rated game, meant for users of age 17+. Due to the new online text censorship filter, I thought it would be interesting to compare the new rules of Siege to Club Penguin's rules. (Club Penguin was rated E for everyone and targeted towards young children)

Rule
Rule Details
Respect Others
No bullying or being mean to others. Make sure you always treat others the way you would like to be treated.
Chat Nicely
No rude or inappropriate language. This includes any swearing, racism, talking about drugs, sex, or alcohol.
Stay Safe Online
No sharing of personal information. Never give out your real name, phone number, address, email, or password online. Don't direct another player to other websites.
Play Fair
No cheating or use of third party programs. If you're unsure whether a site or program is a third party program, please read the article

Players found not following the Club Penguin rules risk being banned, temporarily or permanently. There are two ways bans occur in Club Penguin:
  1. Automatic bans occur when a player uses inappropriate language that is marked by our security system. These bans happen immediately, and the player will be logged out of Club Penguin, and banned for 24 hours.
  2. Moderators can apply bans to a penguin at any time. When a penguin is reported, a record of all conversation, including filtered messages, is sent to our moderators. Moderators review the conversation and will ban accounts found breaking the Club Penguin Rules (see below). Accounts can be banned for 24 hours, 72 hours, or forever depending on the offense.
Siege Rules
CODE OF CONDUCT:
When you play the Game, you must respect other Users and their user rights. The following points will be enforced by the Ubisoft staff:

  • Any suspected breach of the Code of Conduct or Terms of Use will lead to an investigation. Ubisoft reserves the right to suspend, ban, or delete any User’s account without prior warning or notice.
  • When using the services provided by Ubisoft, Users may not engage in or encourage any illegal behavior or communications concerning such.
  • Users will follow all instructions given to them by the Ubisoft staff. Non-compliance of the User regarding any request made by a Ubisoft employee will be considered a breach of the Code of Conduct, and may lead to account suspension or revocation.
  • The User will respect the rules detailed in this Code of Conduct when using the services offered by Ubisoft and the Game. The following list of forbidden conduct gives examples of unacceptable behavior, but should not be considered exhaustive.

FORBIDDEN CONDUCT:
The following actions are forbidden, and can lead to a disciplinary action in accordance with the Disciplinary Policy outlined below.

  • Harassing or bullying other players via verbal or written communications.
  • Any language or content deemed illegal, dangerous, threatening, abusive, obscene, vulgar, defamatory, hateful, racist, sexist, ethically offensive or constituting harassment.
  • Impersonation of any other player or Ubisoft employee.
  • Any conduct which interrupts the general flow of Gameplay in the Game client, forum, or any other Ubisoft medium.
  • Verbal or written abuse targeted toward a Ubisoft employee.
  • Use of macros.
  • Any attempt to edit, corrupt or change Game or server code. Any such behavior will result in the immediate cancellation of the account, and may even give rise to personal liability and/or penal penalties.
  • Use of third-party hacking, cheating or botting clients.
  • The purchase of in Game benefits, including but not limited to “MMR boosting services” from unlicensed vendors, as well as the promotion of such services.

DISCIPLINARY POLICY:

In the event of a Code of Conduct violation, disciplinary action will be taken. Depending on the seriousness of the violation, sanctions can range from a warning to a permanent ban.

Below are examples of behavior that could lead to your account being banned from playing online or restricting your access in other ways from the Game:

  • Cheating / Modding / Hacking: Player is running a modified or otherwise unauthorized version of the Game client or a third party software which provides any sort of unfair advantage (wallhacks, aimhacks…) or causing detriment to other players’ experience: Maximum penalty is permanent ban.
  • Offensive Language or Behavior / Threats: Posting or publishing (public forums, private chats or VOIP) any language or content that is in violation of this Code of Conduct.
  • Harassment: Harassing or serious bullying other players via verbal or written communications in the in-Game chat, and outside the Game (public forum, subreddit, etc.)
  • All partners’ bans will be honored at Ubisoft discretion. If a player is banned by a partner, they could be banned by Rainbow Six Siege as well.

AUTOMATED TEMPORARY BANNING SYSTEM:

In the idea to make the Game a welcoming community space for challenges, Ubisoft has decided to launch an automated temporary banning system in respect to Offensive Language or Behavior, Threats and Harassment.

This system will automatically temporary ban players from the Game when they use abusive words in the in-Game chat.

These temporary bans will be implemented as follows:

  • First offense: 30 minutes temporary ban
  • Second offense: 2 hours temporary ban
  • Third Offense: 2 hours temporary ban
  • After three offenses: an investigation will be conducted and may lead to a permanent ban (maximum penalty)

Difference in rules
As far as I can tell, there is only one major difference in the rules:
Club Penguin forbids sharing personal information and links to external websites.

Strong language as in characters use strong language. Online activites, such as player language, aren't rated by the ESRB, which is why ubi has to take control of it.
