there isn't any competition in Towny, what would be so bad if there was one big kingdom with multiple hamlets??????????

Update: Crits have been disabled for all weapons that aren't melee on TGH and Pokemon Trade.

I mean, that looks much better than blocking the entire screen, but there's a few issues... Overlays can't be customized. They're essentially texture files that would be shown to a player on command use. So having [staff member name here] and [Reason here] wouldn't be possible unless you made 15 different overlays with different reasons, and 15 different commands. So it'd look like this: >!hwarn (target) (warning number from 1 - 15) (duration) Duration also wouldn't work on an animated overlay, as it would just play the animation and not slow it down or anything. A single image texture would be better for that. All in all, I feel it's more work than it's worth. Considering we'd have to not only make overlay textures, but also a plugin to use them, and probably some kind of menu option so we don't have to type it out every time. When compared to how we do it now, it's a heck of a lot faster just to type @Stop micspamming, dingus

I verbally warn and use MSAY and All chat. Msay most people just click a key to get it off their screen so they can switch weapons. Hence why we make no the first option in vote menus to prevent people from just closing them while unwillingly saying yes to the vote. This would not be closeable until the countdown is concluded. A trial run is usually available for new suggestions, it doesn’t hurt to test things as they sometimes do work out really well.

You're able to disable both voice and text chats. I do that all the time when I play on non-xg servers. I used that while I wasn't staff. So if they have chat disabled, this would be the best choice. Even though it is really in your face, it's helpful to those who disable text/voice. I've noticed quite a few staff haven't taken to warning in both voice and text, something that is now required.

Wait, whats so bad about giving someone multiple warnings? Punishments shouldnt follow a set system and should 100% be based on the context of the offense. For example, when dealing with slurs and/or spam, i only remember going past a mute once during my entire mod-admin period. We simply muted/gagged and then moved on. The fact that people can be banned for spamming is honestly kinda silly in my opinion. As for @TheSupremePatriot's suggestion. I you're trying too hard to shove the warning into peoples faces. If they ignore the warning it's their fault if they get punished, not ours.

Atm we only got Sergeant Painus which is just painus cupcake's number one fan, but that ain't enough for me, so it's about time we get the REAL Painus Cupcake. So we should add Painus Cupcake and we should also add us a Cuddly Heavy cuz I could always use some more love. @Bello

LOL OKAY.

I'm personally not a fan of PvP (unless its in a controlled environment such as an event arena) and know full well that with factions there will be groups just going around constantly lying to and slaying new players and not giving them a chance to actually build a settlement before its destroyed forcing them to leave the server in frustration and most likely not to return. Therefore because we can't recode factions unless there is another gamemode plugin available which allows weaker players to play peacefully and keep their builds protected I am going to vote for towny but with changed settings to discourage one giant nation being formed against several tiny hamlets.

towny gets boring once you actually finish the game but factions stays for a much longer time because it is competitive. just gonna copy paste this from the other thread To fix the problem of "New factions aren't going to be able to do anything because they would get murdered by the bigger ones!" Maybe there could be a command that leaders of the factions could do that could switch them from "passive" to "hostile" at a price meaning that if you are passive people can't conquer you and you can't conquer others and hostile being just a switch around of that and you need to pay some credits to switch between the 2?

oh that reminds me Me as of current

This is true, yes... but when it starts to result in population loss because they think they didn’t do anything wrong and as mentioned might ignore the kick message come back (or not) and do it again, get banned and never come back. This hurts us as we loose players that might have or might not of made an honest mistake. I sometimes miss the notices other staff members or donators put up. It’s just not in a direct line of view where the player is really focusing. This would grab their attention and be easier to read. Surf is the server that gets the most punishments dealt in. If you notice how many times within the last 6 months that I (and other surf staff) have had to ban people, you would realize how critical something like this could be, even a test run would be grand. All it is is a new messaging method in addition to the standard ones we currently have. Again with the format, I’m sorry :c
