are bad ideas. this is going to piss a lot of people off. i don't support this mod and im sure many others wont support this either.
Personally I'm really against this too.
Someone could set up a server with the name 'Get shrek't' that just blacklists everyone as soon as they join.

The global blacklist is an optional thing for server owners to use. It will be disabled by default, meaning that the server owners will actually want to enable the global blacklist if they have it on.

As for the 'perks', they are just little things to make the user stand out of the crowd, as in putting a little icon next to their name, etc. They will never have global blacklist immunity.

A single server can only add a strike to a BLID once, and that BLID has to be connected to their server.

Once there are enough strikes from different servers, (at least 3-5), the player will get added to the global blacklist.

If they try to spam it, their server ip will automaticly get revoked of using our service. Easy as that.

Just drop your global blacklist idea, it should be obvious by now that nobody wants it. And if someone wants it, they're a power hungry kid that loves banning people for no reason.

How about this, I will put a poll sooner or later.

Put it up right now before you waste your time implementing it, and end up deleting it because everyone hates it.

I'm in the middle of writing the poll though, just give me a minute.

What's there to write?

Global Blacklist?

[ ] Yes
[x] No

Keep in mind that blockland was only like 1€ during the summer sale. There are probably thousands of alts around now. It's be easy to host servers with 5 alts and cheat your "strike system".

The strike system works only with different server IPS, not player IPS. So a server can only vote once on a player. There could be many admins voting on the same server, but it would only count once for each server.

I personally vote myself no, if a majority of the community disagrees with me, then I would know that i'm wrong in some way.

My reason: The global blacklist would waste too much bandwidth and stress the server if people are constantly POSTing to the master server. Your reasons are valid too in many ways.

You know it's very easy to change your IP, right?

Yep, the system collapses in on itself when someone uses a VPN or something.

It's not too hard to just get 4 friends to help you.

Then its settled, we will not have a global blacklist.

Does anyone wanna pitch in and give suggestions on what our 3rd main feature should be?

The actual option of making chatrooms that RTB promised us but never delivered.
