Informational: Vote Kicking System

doesnt have to only be for hacking. it can also be for glitching, vulgar language, or could be that they ar healing the other team
anyways you shouldnt be worried because only your team can kick you, and i doubt they would want you on the other team xD

This seems a great way to get rid of bad nubs. I fully vote for this (even though it will be abused), but there should also be a way to do the /kick <account name> for hacking, so we dont have to wait for staff to come on. Like, say /accuse <account name> would bring up a planet global message saying <account name> then his nickname has been accused of hacking. Do you agree? Then have the voting system be the same as before. But, instead of just locking him, it puts him in space without a class for half an hour. And if he relogs, he goes back there The without class is so he doesnt ice cannon people. Or it could just make him stuck on the bar tables, while frozen and it says im a bad nub above his head either way make him say im a bad nub when he tries to speak.
Do this with the /kick <account name> too. Have them say I'M NOT WANTED AND NO ONE LOVES ME!!! when ever they try to speak

Is this for people managing hackers on their own? If so, how much will it work when people are getting asked to vote someone out if only one other person actually saw them hack?

Anyways, I might not play Zone but I like the idea itself. I'm sure if it does get abused too much and leads to problems it will be tweaked or removed. No harm in trying it out.

If you knew the zone community you would change your mind...

It's really just for players to be able to manage their team more. I mean, I've played tons of games with vote kicking systems, and yeah, there are always the annoying players that want to kick everyone, but they eventually stop when they realize that no one else on the team is going to kick the people that they are trying to get removed.


And hey, it only makes sense to be removed from a team if over half of the team is unsatisfied with you. And if you do get removed, just join the other team and own them.


And yes, if problems do appear, then it can easily be tweaked. As already stated, this type of system has worked and currently works in many games, so there is no reason as to why it couldn't work here. I'm sure other games have their own percentage of immature players as well, but the mature players in the team don't vote out people that don't deserve it, thus it's a system of checks and balances. And since only Gold status users can even trigger the action of kicking someone, that too should limit abuse.

If you want to and over half of your team wants to, then yes.

See, I thought of this idea a while back, didn't say anything but it was in the back of my head and I thought of mentioning it but I saw so many problems with it.
First of all they could do this to people with high bounty to get them out then lame and wait for them to come.
Second of all a person who is really good and is owning all the people on the other team could be kicked because well, they're good.
Third is people who are accused of hacking but they are just good, people will kick them because of alleged "hacking"
Fourth is that people who are kicked will complain a lot about it not being fair, which makes it an annoying job for ETs.
Fifth sometimes people like to join in the fun of kicking someone for the hell of it.
Sixth the person might have a lot of friends and he says "Kick this person", so they do.
Seventh they'd probably be pissed at the people who have the highest scores on the other team so they band together to kick them off and every time they come back they kick them again because they don't wanna fight that person.

Why not just hire more trustable people to watch over the Zoneians.

I like it but being Locked for 5 Minutes would not be cool, you could not play spar or another planet or anything. And you might have been kicked for healing the other team too when you are a medic(I don't like this.). How about it just makes it so you have to either go on the other team or 5 Minutes to go back to your team?

Sincerely,
Desear

It's up to Stefan, I don't really care. I just wanted to script the system so I did. All of the other stuff I leave open to Stefan to decide (whther or not to alter times and so forth).


5 minutes seems reasonable to me, though.

Who suggested this?

Because I remember thinking of something similar a long while back, but I don't remember if I posted it or not. Might have been somebody else ;[
