Thread: Player city jails or prisons
Before I started playing this game I had visions of what it would be like, I thought there would be prisons or jails to detain people or POW's.
This may co inside with the correspondant's milita right to defend, but I kinda think its different from it however I shall repost in that thread as well, just to be safe.
The milita is in a word the Police of the town/city or MP's (military police)
The milita could be given these commands:-
/citywarn - This just warns the offending person or citizen i.e just a telling off,
/cityfine - This the Milita would be able to do if after warning the Perp like 2 or 4 times and the fine goes into city hall the finewould be set by the mayor. This would only work on people who are covert as people will attack the citys if they got bases and such.
/citylockup - This command would transfer the covert perp into the Town/citys jail or lock up and would be unable to leave for a period of time like for 5 minutes, then he would be able to leave town he would have 2 minutes to leave or the milita could fine him again.
This would be like the penelty box in the NHL, or whats called the Ice box for people to cool down.
/cityban - can stay the same and be used against invading armys.
The city lock up would mean the devs creating a new building for player citys, I think jails go with the police you get arrested.
Well this is the idea and I have to say I do like it.
For the question people will be asking what about overt people attacking,
well thats the job of the Army, if you get invaded or attacked you don't call the police you call in the Army to defend, Your imperials or Rebel soilders so come to fend off.
I do think that there should be added to the radial commands aswell as Death Blow (DB) The Dev's could add a Prisoner (POW) command So when the overt gets incapped if the person who incapped feels nice he can click on POW and the incapped person would get cloned into the Jail or detention center.
I do feel this would solve most if not all you problems with the milita and army as such.
There would be a limit of times you could be fined, so after the third time if u click cityfine u get locked up instead.
Most people after having lost their money would just go and leave they do have 2 minutes to get out of the city where they are frozen from PvP combat.
There was a similar idea to a jail/prison brought up on this fourm a couple of days ago.
The main problem with this sort of idea is that it can be abused, just like the /citywarn ability was.
a player restricting another person play of this level..... it too abusive ![]()
we have jain in UO.. but only (EX) counselors and GM can use them.
