There are somethings that are just very hard to prove on the server, especially at times when there are no mods on, I've been thinking of this recently if it would be a possibility for commands such as /mute or /jail to be given to ranks like OGs and Superbuilders, As you may know most incidents will happen when there are no moderators online, Here I am talking about things such as Griefing, PvP logging, hacking etc. I understand the possibility of these commands being abused so it could just be given to responsible/helpful people only but this is why I'm not suggesting /kick /ban commands. I've seen it a lot I'll be flying around the build looking for a place to build and there will be someone griefing, I know I can take screenshots and send them to a Moderator, Open a ticket or do something I know I'm not supposed to do and thats killing them. But while sending a screenshot to a mod is helpful or opening a ticket in the span of time from when the offence occurs to when a moderator is online to check and ban, the offender can just cause more damage and break even more rules, so the point of having a command such as jail would be to prevent them from doing any further harm, and then when a moderator comes on they can see that ticket/screenshot and handle the situation, I know theres /ignore for people who spam and advertise, but again I may be able to take screenshots and do that but what are they doing while that's going on?, Most likely continuing to break rules, that's when /mute may be effective. There also could be a rule or server message that is directed at people who have the commands saying something such as: "Abuse of commands/powers may lead to you being demoted/banned". PvP logging is especially annoying as it is very hard to prove and happens a lot, I can say "Please stop doing that, It is against the rules" but people will ignore prompts to stop, Here is an example of one of these scenarios: *flying around the build*, *Sees someone griefing*, *Tells to stop*, *Offender: Swears, or continues*, *Take Screenshot, Open Ticket*, *(Prevention from further mischief) *Jails offender for x minutes/hours*, *Mod comes on, bans the offender*. Hacking can be proven but some are difficult to prove, there are hackers out there that are very evasive. So, If this could be taken into consideration, I would much appreciate it. I will be honest, I certainly wouldn't think to abuse commands such as these, This is why I'm suggesting it only for more experienced ranks, people that have spent a considerable amount of time on the server, are responsible, helpful, maybe even an age limit if necessary. , Thank you for reading this.
Sincerely,
