  Overview

    One member of the Monochrome Admin team is responsible for the overall
    Complaints procedure. In most cases, it is this person who will deal with
    all complaints, obtain evidence to support or refute a complaint, then make
    final judgement and either dismiss the complaint, or decide upon punishment
    as is appropriate. Action will only be taken on the basis of explicit
    behaviour on Monochrome itself.

    ** The current Complaints Admin is: culf
