There are significant differences between the Achaean issue system, and the Imperian one, though the process itself is nearly identical. The main difference is the volume of issues, Achaea's being larger, due to the number of players, the different rules and the actual differences between the realms themselves. However, judgements on issues are not biased, but based on history, behaviour and assorted other information available to the Administrators. Any punishment recieved is not personal, but generally deserved, but regardless of this it is almost always the case that the punished feels they were wrongfully dealt with, by someone who clearly must hate them.

It's quite natural to project bias onto a 'faceless' system, but ultimately if you screw up, you get punished, you deserve it. Out of all of those punished, ever, a good 90% will complain they were mistreated and their issue clearly dealt with by a biased Administration. The heads of whatever game this claim is made on always take care to make sure that an issue is dealt with impartially, and if there were some biased judgements made, those making them would be quite quickly dealt with.

Ultimately, follow the rules, and you won't be punished. If you are... you've been naughty.
