I call Rhaegar not telling us this on vent full of fail and win at the same time.

Well its been a long time coming, but I must say this system sounds very promising indeed.

Rhaegar, your a good old salt really my boy. I do love you, even if I dont show it all the time =P


Sure I think we will have to errr, iron out some quirks as we go, but finally we have some power to 'punish' people for screwing around with game dynamics such as blatantly cross-teaming in a Port Battle.

Barred from grouping with other players. Permanently PvP flagged.

I LOVE THE LAST ONE. . . TOTAL WIN - LMOA!

I hope hoping it takes quite a few negative nods to get the hated or loathed status? What is two pirate groups are pissy, and they all report each other. If you have two soc's going at it, that could be 15-20 people all reporting each other.

Is this the case?

This is rather interesting, but could well be abused. Everyone hates some players just for being themselves...

If it stops people being arsehats, then I'm all for it.

I'm not sure if it will so much stop them as just cause more
consequences for it.

Silentknight, there are limits to how often you can report someone and there are ways to counter it so it would take an all-out effort to get someone in trouble who shouldn't be.

You know its just gona happen that one society does not like one person in other society and gona make a campaign to get more to ban him from pb's....

There is a recent incident of where this is much needed. I think all of britland on antigua will be reporting 2 particular brits so they might want to play nice next time

That sounds like a spanish problem. Sure, you are right about that problem. I can only speak for myself, but I can guarantee, that this won't happen on Roberts Brits, hands down. If there are really traitors, they get the right treatment! Personal differences don't have to result in reporting each other.

On the Brit side, there are only 1-2 ppl I would call as traitors, one of them is already a rat .
