Politician Archive

Ive been wondering a few things about the /ctiyban command and how it works as it seems to have a few problems. Maybe a few of you could help me understand here. Im not a politician, just a member of the militia.



1)Does cityban keep banned players from using a guild hall based mall placed in the city? (i dont think it does, but not sure)
2)Is there a list somewhere that only the mayor can see on who is banned from the city?
3)Does cityban wear off over time?
4)When a player is citybanned, they receive a message and so does the person who places the ban. If the militia member who places the ban trys it again, they do not receive another message. We have had other members try to cityban a player who was already banned by another militia member and the new cityban DOES issue a new message to both players. What has happened here? Has the banned player been removed from their ban by a militia member or does every militia member receive a message when banning an already banned player? (little confusing...sorry)


Thanks for any help you can provide : )

lets see if this helps

1)Does cityban keep banned players from using a guild hall based mall placed in the city? (i dont think it does, but not sure)

nope, since guild hall is a player owned structure, it is not affected by /cityban. only civic structures (ones only placable by mayor and take up no lots) are affected.

2)Is there a list somewhere that only the mayor can see on who is banned from the city?

nope, but that's oneof the things we eventually want to have

3)Does cityban wear off over time?

nope, it can only be undone by /citypardon

4)When a player is citybanned, they receive a message and so does the person who places the ban. If the militia member who places the ban trys it again, they do not receive another message. We have had other members try to cityban a player who was already banned by another militia member and the new cityban DOES issue a new message to both players. What has happened here? Has the banned player been removed from their ban by a militia member or does every militia member receive a message when banning an already banned player? (little confusing...sorry)

no clue about this one, I guess since there is no banned list we can see it doesn't hurt... probably just a coding inconsistency

Also one other thing, you may already know it but it never hurts just to make sure. Citizens of the town can't be city banned.
