Lower numbers of banned players

[Skeleton]

Hello all !

I saw that every1 are talking about that ur going to get banned cause of killing lvl20 and lower, well, I disagree, what if some unexp. players don't know all rules, he might kill players under lvl20 and he'll get banned. He will probably think what's wrong and bother admins with PMs or simply leave server 4ever. Make that lvl20 and lower are impossible to kill, so there would be lower numbers of players banned and all happy =D>

 its a good idea ! I agree ! If lvl 20 or under players are nukillable then there is no problem ! so no ban ! Simple as that ! lol

Altho I think it's a great idea I wonder if it could be implemented without writing some custom dll's. Anyone got some technical thoughts?

[Zebulon]

As this has been implemented in Alexandria for lvl 50 players and below, I believe the A-team are working on a system wide prog to do exactly that.  There will be the testing and such required, but I have a suspicion that this will be part of the new MOD? I stand corrected if that is not the case.  Truth is accidents do happen and anyone accused of this does have an opertunity to respond to the ban.  BUT - READ THE RULES before playing on the VOID - remember IGNORANCE of the LAW is NO EXCUSE!.... just so ya'll know... Zeb Out...

I really dont want to tie up server resources checking every player when a shot is fired or received.

It might be something for the future, but at the moment, there really isnt a need for this.

Obviously we review stuff ongoing as always.

Before we all agree to this you need to know something;
What would stop some players to get another charakter with a low lvl. And put weps on a good ship ( just below lvl 20 ) and just start firering on players. <--- It's possible i had an viper once and i was on lvl 18, it was for the Alliance v/s Coalition event.

Just to give you guys an heads-up. Cya, Inf

agree if it possible need to put invincible code to ppl under rank 20

Lets put it this way


All new players onto the server should read the rules

most of the time these players when they are caught they are givin a warning

most of the players you see banned for this reason are repeat offenders

people who just cant grasp the concept of our rule book  get banned not because we want to ban them but because we ban them to keep things around here running in a smooth fashion some players thrive on chaos and walk the line between breaking a rule and being a normal everyday player
these are the people you see in the banned catergorys on the forums  usally they learn there lesson the first time and become stronger members of the community and are respected for it

sadly others decide that they are above the rules and continue to repeat breaking them  these players are delt with and the system we use is fair


Reading the rules is an easy thing to do and then to intigrate them into the morals we use in life already  and follow them
well really is this that difficult
  after all there here avalible for all in a few different luanguges

give them a read in most cases they answer a question or 2 someone may have been confused about

killing under level 20 players has no honor  what fun is shooting a dagger with guns that basically  only have the power to clean the dust off of most ships

Have a great day everyone     and if you see a new guy maybe give him help by pointing him into the direction of the rule book  it will make everyones life much easyer when the person can read and understand them for themselves and avoid such things as killing underanked players  in the first place !

P.s        FYI  if you go back and read strails post he has the rules posted at the bottom of his chat box  !

Just to touch upon a point Zeb made..........

IGNORANCE is really no excuse for anything!
Fine, what other rules aren't players reading that the MOD team need to develop for their (the law breakers) convience??.  
Do YOU really expect to go online to an anarchaic server that lets you kill and mame what you want without out any foundation for some sort of laws for players?  
COURSE you don't,  not in FREELANCER or any online game.  Law breakers know exactly what the rules are, and if they don't; it's about high time they got off their a**es and checked them!

just because a few neglect to find out about the background and details of where they are playing  System resources (like STRAIL said) are precious enough!  without wasting them on something like this just beacause of those lazy few...............

need I say more ??

[URAMI]

This idea was already discussed just 1 week ago.  If players would read the forums more often there would be no need for this post.  This post is just a repeat of what has already been said.  This is redundant.

Refer to the below post to see what I'm talking about:

If a player below level 20 opens fire on you first you are alowed to return fire..this is explained in the rules

[Inf1n1ty]

I know the Server rules by hart I mean that if we make this;
[quote="NoMaadd";p="147353"]agree if it possible need to put invincible code to ppl under rank 20[/quote]
Than whats to stop lvl19 players to rule the void if they cant get kill'd.


*EDIT* This is my 500 massage on the void  :D  :D

A wile back now a lvl 14 player fired on me so i shot back and killed him,  but i did pay him a  mil in compensation and explained the rules to him i got no ban. Evan though he shot first i still felt guilty.
