Like the tittle says; i think it would be very helpful if we had a place that said why you got muted,banned,warned,etc. I think this will be helpful for people that are muted and can not really talk in-game or people that are banned and can not log in. Probably you guys have a different system to all this, but i personally think this will be helpful to all of us one day.
Yeah. Same goes with any kind of punishment in my opinion.
This would be awesome, Most are clueless to why they were punished.
It'd reduce spam as well, Less people making topics like "Wtf, why am i banned for no reason!@#!"
I second this to the max.
They could always look at the reports section to see if they were reported.
Yes, This is sort of the same concept as this;

Hardly. That is referring to warnings, Witch sometimes comes off as you've been reported, So you can obviously see it.
Where talking about something along the lines of an account status page. Like Runescape has.

That's what this thread is for;
http://www.worldscapeblitz.com/blitz/smf/index.php/board,83.0.html
PkOwnedall if you see that topic carefully you will see that players are the ones that post there. Also, not many players use the forums. So how can they post in "appeal an offense" if they don't even use forums. So it would be way better if admins/moderators would make a topic that said why you got muted,banned,warned, etc etc. Or at least a private message here on forums. Something similar like what Vee Dub said; like an account status page.
You don't get banned, muted or warned for no reason. If you've been banned, warned or muted then you should no the reason. A good idea is to use commen sence and to try and guess why you got an infraction on your account. Most people know why and there is a forums and also, You need to be on forums to play blitz.
All the questions are answered...
well, not everyone uses the forums. only like 1/5 of us do, or even less. Most people in-game do not use forums. They make an account so they can play but that does not mean they use it. And it's always good to know why you got muted,banned,warned, etc. etc. because then you will not be like....wtf! and then start complaining. You see, if we had a account status thing all you had to do is check what happend and see some type of proof and then there won't be any complains unless there was some type of mistake or something like that. Either way you look at it it's not a bad idea.
Maybe there should be a command?
"::blackmarks", As an example
"You have 1 out of 5 black marks, If you continue you'll be banned."
Or something.
ohh w00t! that's a good idea!. That also makes it better for people who are not active on forums.
I like this idea, it may receive more attention in the future.
Keep the great suggestions up, there are some good ones out there.

Thanks for commenting on my idea! :)
no, problem. It is a good idea though.
Hopefully Ry or Jeremy sees' this.
It'd be better having it on the forums though. Half of the Worldscape Community doesn't use the forums. It would give them a reason to get on.
Better having it Ingame then nowhere though ;)
That would be abusing of privacy or something...
They should just simply personal message you...

You would only see your own status, Not other players.
I think enough Chit-Chat, All the people in this board want this idea to happen. I think this should now be locked and put up for debate, It's just spamming now. If it does happen it won't for a while because Ryan has other things to do with WorldScape Blitz. Anyway, i think it should be locked and Ryan and the other staff should think about it.

Part of this board is for debate, commenting on the suggestions that are brought up and
possibly improving them by replying
your input on the suggestion.
If you feel as if the topic is being spammed or is off-topic, report it to the moderators via clicking the 'Report to moderator' on the bottom of the users reply.
Thank you - please continue this great discussion.
Really, none of you have any good reason to be "banned, muted or etc." in the first place. *Coughmysignaturecough*
You keep saying nobody uses the forums, then saying it should be on the forums, which is kind of redundant. When it came to classic, you'd simply PM/ask Staff until someone answered, like the Mod who muted you. (After checking reports of course) Now with our new system for doing disciplinary stuff, it should be easy to find out what was done to who, when and why. So, if this doesn't end up turning into something official like a board or a service, just ask some staff you know is active to check. We don't need ignorant players who can't click a random person on the staff list and ask what happened.
Though a lot of staff is usually pretty busy, so unless some other people say they will too, you could just ask me. PM me asking why you were [action]ed, how long for etc., and I'll try to find out. As long as everyone's using the system right, you should get an answer pretty quickly.
The idea of an in-game command would work pretty well and be awesome for the ignorant ones, but it might be a little hard to implement it so it wouldn't need to be updated manually.
So, yeah. Keep arguing constructive criticism here, and it might turn out to be something big like the highscores. :D
what coleshot posted actually makes sense....why put it on forums if that certain person doesn't use forums. but it's always good having it for the ones that do, xD
Not saying it'd be bad to have it on the forums, just that you can't say "No one uses the forums" and "Put it on the forums" in the same post. Like I said, it'd be hard to make it automatically update as an in-game command, so either it could turn into an actual service, or you can ask me.

What I'm implying is that if, for arguments sake, we put this account status centre on the forums that it would give people a reason to get on.
It's possible that they might like the forums, And not just get on to check there accounts status.
I'm just Spitballing here.
wow! i'm liking this argument. An idea i had you guys gave you guy's idea and showed you guys' point of views and are turning it into a better idea! awesome! And i do like the fact that probably more people are going to be using the forums because of this. Forums are very helpful and it's a shame that alot of people don't even use the forums.
Hello,
To be honest, I'm there with you on the Forums issue.
I wish more people would be willing to use this Forum rather than getting stuck with a problem In-Game.
I love this Idea.

Brian Crowell

Yup, I always wanted more people on forums. The more people = The more help and more opinions from others.
