I would have stopped playing a long time before I did if there was no such thing as jail. Jail is fun as hell. I consider myself a badass when I'm in jail.

I think it's a good idea and something that should be looked into.

Yeah, but the only problem is then if you have a corrupt staff member or an unfair jail/ban then they really don't have any way to contact normally. I suppose if there was a way to contact staff members (like a list of admins on all servers with contacts somewhere) then it might not be a bad idea. I'm all for stopping the *****s though, no worries there.

Emails... And... Playerworld Forums... And... Forum PM...

Other ways to contact staff members? Noo... There's NONE of that.

You won't have to contact them if you're banned anyhow. The time would run out, and you'd be automatically freed.

Well now PWA have rights to look into that!

Plus this isn't a new right, the staff who are going to abuse it will just ban anyway. I'd say we're already pretty equipped to handle it.

Playerworld Forum => They are usually accessible to everyone. You could easily get a forum account. If you aren't going to even do a slight step to be unbanned, then you probably aren't all that interested in the server regardless.

Being Staff makes you corrupt. Players are innocent most of the time. Bull****.
Most of the time the players are just... stupid, immature and power hungry. Looking for new glitches they could abuse, insulting people, playing a witty outlaw who is too "kewl" for rules, etc.
Most of them deserve to get punished, because otherwise they would never stop being a jackass.

Oh course -- Human is an egocentric, lazy race. Slaves were used in 'real' life to faciliate profits and life standards (of a few people) to the extent of punishing others (large sums). This applies to servers with glitches/power. The higher up in the triangle, the more "corrupt" you can be. It's natural for human to abuse anything that comes in their possession. If players find glitches/bugs, then they'll abuse it at the cost of the large populace. Sometimes this ends up in global resetting of the server.

Now, for a person who was banned never to be rebanned is practically banning them for actively searching for techniques which every human secretely seek. And I believe that it isn't right to ban them permenently unless it possess such an imbalance, and an actual bug/glitch that you aren't in position to fix.

Best way to fix this is limiting staff, managing them strictly. But then again, if you're the owner, and corrupt yourself, then I don't suppose the server will go very far.

We already have this problem with bans. This won't be any different than the normal system except that now instead of timed jail it's timed ban.
