One of the things that I like about disco is the rules...
(the following are all true experiences from other servers):
+ dockraped by an eagle when i left manhatten for the first time
+ paid a tax to a pirate AND got destroyed
+ 6 eagles repeatedly cap-whored by 3 lib destroyers... in kusari
u think bulldognk's actions were bad? one server i played, THE WHOLE ADMIN TEAM WAS DOING THE SAME: /addcash; superimposing caps/eagles on starfliers; sitting there in admin-tags, waiting for a convoy to head out, then spawning right in front of kusari... the list goes on, and half of it is unbelievable.
without rules there is anarchy.
with rules, there are lawyers.
i prefer the lawyers, cos eventually, even the stupidest dog stops yapping.
My 2 cents:
There are a LOT of rules, some of which work really well, others are open to abuse and lead to many flame-infested sanction reports, which waste time.
a points system, like three strikes and you're out.
normally, points have a time limit (2 weeks? 2 months? until next time player list is cleaned up?)
however, when u reach 12points = incarceration (length of time determined by how far beyond 12 points). upon your release, your credits have been parcelled out to the injured parties, and your points are reset.
players can only be incarcerated twice, then banned.
