ScreenSharing Protocols (Video Recording)

Red Lotus mandates strict, non-negotiable protocols regarding the documentation of screenshare procedures, primarily through video recording:

• Mandatory Video Recording: It is compulsory for every ScreenSharer to record the entirety of every screenshare they conduct, from the moment interaction begins until it concludes. This applies universally, regardless of the ScreenSharer's personal hardware capabilities; claiming a "low-end PC" is not a valid excuse for failing to record. Solutions must be found to meet this requirement.

• Purposes of Recording: As detailed previously, recording serves multiple vital functions: player safety assurance, evidence review by oversight, verification of procedural accuracy and truthfulness (preventing framing), compliance with data security/privacy standards, and assessment of the ScreenSharer's skills and adherence to protocols.

• Consequences of Non-Compliance: Failure to provide a complete video recording for a conducted screenshare may result in significant penalties for the ScreenSharer, including but not limited to demotion, temporary or permanent suspension from screensharing duties, or mandatory re-evaluation of their skills and understanding of protocols.

• Invalid Bans: Any ban issued based on evidence purportedly gathered during a screenshare for which no corresponding complete video recording exists MUST be overturned immediately upon appeal or review. The recording is the primary validation of the process and findings.

• Screenshots Exception (Extremely Limited): In very rare circumstances, screenshots might be deemed provisionally acceptable as supplementary documentation only if the specific ScreenSharer involved has a demonstrable, long-standing, and impeccable track record of respecting player privacy and security protocols, as judged by management. However, this is a significant exception and should not be standard practice. Furthermore, if any dispute, allegation of misconduct, or question regarding the integrity of the screenshare arises, the requirement for full video evidence still applies retroactively, and its absence will invalidate the findings. Video remains the gold standard.
