Its pretty simple, there should be a possibility to catch pods and bring them to an ingame Prison. Those Prisons should be Time Capsules where the catched player has to stay for some time. I would say 1 day up to 1 week


Edit: maybe they should still be able to do basic stuff like mining, lets say if they mine a certain amount for the guy who took them to prison, then they are free upfront



Dude, too much Ultima online?


was that in the game? if yes that would be awesome, who could know better whats needed then richard garriott himself

various features could be implemented that catching other players do not get too easy. Maybe need of special modules, having at least 5-10 people involved in the capturing process, and a special prison fee

please add your ideas, this should bring consequences to the game for liars, traitors and scammers. I feel those are needed because they are missing at the moment!

Edit: maybe they should still be able to do basic stuff like mining, lets say if they mine a certain amount for the guy who took them to prison, then they are free upfront

Edit: the prison mechanic could also be implemented by a special voting system, maybe scammed people can go together and vote, however there would need to be a mechanic to identify scammed people, so you get a voting right comparable to killrights

Edit: maybe prison escape mechanics should be added as well, like people beeing able to free others from prison, maybe there also should be PvP player controlled prisons and PvE prisons controlled by the computer


EvE is that prison.

Yep, Ultima Online had perfect jail system :)

Also, most private servers had jails where it was possible to get out by chopping wood/mining etc :)

No undocking is nowhere in the list so no "game mechanic" is there for any "Retribution". Now the idea is putting in an actual risk for something that is well riskless.
I know how the scams work, although I can think of several "scammers" that would disagree with how you think they work. I'll even give you a couple of names of "scammers" that undock, Miilla and Erotica 1, both of which I am sure would love you to try and gain some retribution.

Scams only work because the "mark" is too stupid or greedy to read properly.


So your saying that those two own all the other accounts that don't bother undocking and hide behind their anonymity. I also don't consider Erotica a scammer as he/she tells you exactly what to do.

Retribution isn't gained when they undock and then redock. As i tried your suggestion and it's still kind of hard to pew pew inside a station.

I played tougher games than EvE that has to hand hold even criminals to be a criminal, so put a fork in it, Francis.

Oh, precious, he goes straight to definition he doesn't understand even...the sandbox excuse!

Sandbox is also player content. That means if they want prisons with public stocks for criminals, hey, it's a sandbox game...right???

What you're asking for amounts to a vote to suspend somebody's account, and CCP will never give players that power, ever. Scamming doesn't need consequences because being scammed is a consequence of being stupid. Hope this helps.

I don't consider Erotica as a scammer either, hence the quotation marks.

In the beginning there was nothing, which exploded.

Wow, you're even dumber than usual today.

No, you're wrong. Sandbox is player content.

What they are asking for is a CCP created solution to a "problem" that they just can't seem to get over.

They are asking for a developer solution to a player created problem.

If you want to "jail" them, fine, go do it yourself. But if you don't want to put any more work in than coming on the forums to whine, then no soup for you.

If you really think about it lowsex is sorta like a prison. Get to -5 or lower you sorta stay there and grind sec status back or pay concord their bribe in tags/fee's to "get out of prison".

Some break out only to end up in a different one (the ones traveling through hi sec to some part of the universe with Faction Navy on their butts and random players).

I just think it would be cool to somehow put people in a system they can't get out of until the "sentence" is fulfilled.... mining still comes to mind as a good torture method Pirate

CCP does it all the time... look at safeties and the easy button on "exploration".

Problem:Players somehow shoot things in high sec or take something that ain't theirs and they complained.
Solution: Safeties.

Problem: What is triangulation... i never passed maths so how can I explore if I can't understand probes or basic geometry.
Solution: Click this button and we find it for you.

Problem: People getting ganked by true gate camps.
Solution: Warp to 0 and jump freighters

Low sec status doesn't actually prevent you from entering highsec, the faction navies only prevent you from getting too comfortable while you're there. And it doesn't prevent you from actually playing the game in any case like this "vote to ban" nonsense does.

The difference is that that was directly executed by GMs, not through player votes or whatever.

True:)

Player voting is a bad idea...
For example If I have 10-20 alts, I can Just throw 20 votes against someone, and no one will ever know :D That they belong to me :D

CONCORD makes it hard to move around in hisec if your sec status is low, but I'm sure that is what you meant. Faction Navies only care about your faction standings, and are laughingly ineffective.

Strangely, in all my years of dickery in UO, I never managed to get this to happen to me.

But yes, player voting is a terrible idea. It would, not might, would be abused beyond belief, and would rapidly cause problems that make Jita Monument look like Candyland.
