"Quiball" is the name of the Conflict Resolution system used by Members parties of the Kindren Tree to ensure cooperation and social harmony. All Kindren Tree related parties agree to resolve conflicts through this method of creative problem solving.
Kindren Tree Members as well as non-Members can submit an official claim of Conflict ("Quib") against an active Member party. The claim must be in regards to a disputed transaction or grievance that took place in the past 3 months. Appealed cases are excluded from this time limit.
We take a constructive, team-oriented approach to conflict resolution so the plaintiff party is called the "Pitcher" and the defendant party is the "Catcher". The Haven Council plays the role of "Coach" in arbitrating an ideal settlement between the two parties in conflict.
A commendable resolution can be referenced by the Council as a model for future case resolutions or Mission policy changes. These notable resolutions are therefore established as a classic Pitch-Catch or Patch.
The following graphic describes the general steps in the Quiball dispute resolution system.
