Thread: City Warn?
It was removed because people would use it to grief players, deny access to POI's, ect
The devs have stated many times that it is not going to return. Sorry.

the devs are too incompetent to just deal with abusers, so they deleted it instead and hung us all out to dry that used it legitamately. nerfing useful things is second only perhaps to the devs ability to take useful concepts and implement them disasterously.
It was abused quite frequently if I recall.

It was only Live for a couple of weeks. As soon as they announced it, I was surprised, sincetheDevs hadalways been against 'unconsented PvP' and /citywarn so obviously was exactly that. The griefers had a heyday with it, as anyone who's played on a PvP server in any game knew would happen.
So, they'll never put it back in. The big mystery to meis why they ever turned it on in the first place.
The highlight of the whole deal was when a CSR logged in to deal with complaints of the militia members of a city on Tatooine (on Ahazi) killing everyone who walked through their city. The militia citywarned the CSR and then killed him repeatedly... Citywarn was turned off within a few days of that occurence. Maybe it was the next day heheh.

LOL, I didn't hear that story.
Would add a bit more flavour to things. You would have to watch where you travel to..
I've seen a few posts float around with a link to an imagedump pic that showed the corpse of the CSR.
