Supergroup Base Ban

[MHertz]

Since SG raids are not on the horizon, is it possible to implement a SG base ban? I have noticed that there seem to be occasions where someone shows up and causes trouble, requiring GM intervention, and it might make things easier to let SG leaders control access themselves. A ban (cannot enter) and a boot-ban (kicked out, cannot re-enter) would be great.

 

Such a ban would have to override other permissions, like "team leader grants access" and coalition membership, but probably not override being in the SG itself.

 

Is this feasible?

On behalf of all SG leaders, past and present: YES! 

I second this.

I been using LFG and various other forms of travel since day1, so this is a legit question.

 

What in the ever loving fuck can happen in a base that requires GM intervention?  Did someone show up as a wolf to a catgirl party?  Is someone using the panhandling emote near some storage racks?  Someone using portals without thanking the owner?

The catgirls ate the wolf. The panhandler is just the on-duty guard having himself some fun. And the owner has been sufficiently bribed to not care about thanks any more.

they can steal from the base

I guess they could also hang around, refuse to leave and make a nuisance of themselves.

Im sure there are other things not related to your ridiculous scenarios.

If they are not a member with storage access permissions, what can they steal?  If they are a member, it is very easy to remedy.

Changing the base passcode solves this.

That's called /kick

Set member ranks

Set member access privileges

 

It's called trust and been abused since dawn of time, it's not exactly a game mechanic and easy to control.

This sort of thing has been suggested before, and afaik, it's on the Devs' radar. I don't know if/when it would actually be implemented, though.

In the meantime, your best bet in this situation is to inform a troublesome player, out-of-character, to leave you alone, and that they are not welcome in your base. If they continue to bother you, then they are breaking the code of conduct, and THAT is actionable.

Too many times people just ignore someone who's bothering them, then send in a ticket without confronting the other person. We can't do anything if the person isn't breaking any rules. But, once they've broken the "leave people alone when asked" rule? Then we can help.
