Permabans: Too easy.
Game master pro:
Meh, permabans are too easy sure, I never used a time ban on someone. I permaban them and clear my ban list when I close the server.
NoZoner:
My idea: To make perma-bans harder for non-hosts, maybe there can be a gui that gives perma-banning powers to people you can select. For people that have the power, maybe you have to type out a well thought reason and then present it to the people to vote....
I don't know about the how effective the voting thing will be, it's just an idea...
Or maybe just take it away altogether.
Digmaster:
my idea:
Perma-bans you need a reason. and there's a "are you sure?" GUI that pops up and you can't click for ten seconds. And there's an automatic 10 minute ban in the ban list, you you don't need to fiddle around, and you can change the ten minutes to anything else as your default.
Facechild:
I say if some nub perma-bans you, do you really want to be in his server anyways? 75% of all servers are owned by 11 year old control freaks with an inferiority complex. Just come to the good servers.
laremere:
Thats how I view hosting also. If they come into my server and start bugging me, whats the point in keeping them there if it is the one place I can filter them out. That being said, I only do 1 day bans for not listening to admin and those kinds of things, and 3 day bans for joining the server and right away doing something annoying, like shooting builders.
I sugest a ban gui were the host puts in a list of ban reasons and the time it results in, so admins need only to select the reason and hit ban, and it follows the host's guidlines.
