HTC , have you ever thought of deducting perk point from people ingame for constant moderation issues? Kinda like first time your muted is a warning , second time -50 perks and third time -100. Something like that . Might help stop people from constantly pushing the limits .( grabbing my flame retardant suit and hiding) 38

Hmmm this has potential. In my experience people only respond to a consequence that has a real detriment.
As it is now you get squelched for a short time . Big deal go afk get a drink and a snack bingo let the griefing commence again. Now with this proposal don't shut your potty mouth , whack fined .
Still don't care NP we up the fine . Also the person should be squelched this whole time gives them something to think about.

38ruk all I can say is brilliant.

Well even if you started taking away perks... does it really matter? They can just up another SpitXVI and be in a very, very capable airplane. Quite possibly the best all-around dogfighter in the arena imho.

How about limiting by ENY instead? Instead of -50 perks, you lose the La7 & SpitXVI. Instead of -100 perks, you lose ENY 15 & under. Keep verbally abusing people and eventually you're down to the Spit1 for the remainder of your punishment.

edit: Also solves the problems of what happens when the person doesn't have perks to remove. If I got drunk and for some reason found talking trash on 200 boosted my ego... what perks are you gonna take away? Most I've ever had are 200

perk deductions wont really work, some people have tens of thousands.

if it were to work, it would be fair to do it as a percentage of current perks. i.e. 25%.

Interesting. I'm not entirely sure I'd vote for this, but I certainly think ENY limitations would be better. Not everyone has perks, and not everyone uses them and therefore have thousands banked.

I think Indy's suggestion is a good one. Not everyone wants to fly a tempest or jet, but almost no one wants to be tooling around in a spit1, 202, or a6m2 all night.

also some have no perks.

what do you take from them?

if i wanted to be an jerk all night, and had no perks, there would be no deterrant.

Great, that would mean i can smacktalk all day.... a long way down till my HMk1 gets eny-limited....

Im all for that idea. ENY will probably work better then perk reduction. That or a additional ranking value, that increases thus lowering your rank every time you get muted.

MOIL · « **Reply #8 on:** February 20, 2006, 04:35:58 AM »

I agree with the "ENY" type of deterant.

First = warning
Second = limited plane set avail
Third = No vox, No text & your choice of B5N or LVT4

Ill trade 200 perks and a pre 43 planeset if I can call someone a poopyhead nancyboy

I do like the eny limiter , i was thinking that just deduction perk points would be easier to do that to limit ENY value for certian people, that might require more work for HTC. I do see the point about people not having perks thou , i think eny would be the best punishment . Id like to see hitech chime in to see how much work this would entail . 38

Shouldn't be hard to add actually. Add a flag to somebody's account. There's already mute flags, so an ENY flag is just another variable. On takeoff (If mouthy_players_eny > selected_aircraft) popup_window ('No '.selected_aircraft.' for you!! Learn to play nicer!');

Add 1 more variable to timestamp it so it'll remove itself after the punishment period, and you're good to go.
