Idea to stop stronghold hackers

[Juan_Ambriz]

I think my idea is to complicating or something but.....
I think we should limit the entre to Stronghold by only allowing Trusted people into the server,

Now what do I mean by trusted?
I mean making another subforum and people who want to be trusted post there Bin folder picture with there name and steam ID, THEN if the Bin folder is proven to be trusted admins should add the ID to the Trusted list.

Can't someone install hacks after being trusted?
Yes but if caught they will be perma'd

What if someone tries to connect that isnt on the trusted list?
They should be kicked by console with a message saying something like
"go to randomgs.org to become trusted and play on this server!"

This is just a suggestion to stop The insane amount of hackers we have had.

Please don't post your idea on how to stop it, I just want to hear opinions on my idea because then people are gonna be all over the place with there ideas.

Then no one will bother playing on the stronghold server except for the select few who have gone out of their way to post an app to play on a whitelist server

But still .-.

A good chunk of the playerbase are guests that probably dont even know we have a forum... Much less go on it and apply

This takes all the fun out of rNd, which is supposed to be welcoming to new users. By doing that, you're pretty much saying WE'RE EXCLUSIVE, YOU CAN'T ENJOY US UNLESS YOU ARE US.

No, this will cause a huge lack of players. It would make GreenShift more popular as well... But that isn't to much of a bad thing.

[Juan_Ambriz]

No, this would cause a shortage of players and might then make GreenShift be more populated...

On second thought, this is a great idea and should be added ASAP to prevent hackers from hacking on the server ever again. The OP deserves 1k +1s and should be given admin to invoke such a brilliant idea faster! /sarcasm

O.o
Lol you -1 me just for saying an idea? Really?

Yes, I did. You should be aware by now that the +/- system is a summary of posts. I do not simply give out such +/- 1s on a whim, your post was deserving of it from my point of view.

I also fear that the "[*color=black][*size=8pt]/sarcasm[/size][/color]" went unnoticed in my post.

It's just you gave -1 for an idea. It may have went well in his head, but ideas always have some draw back to it that the creator sometimes over looks.
It's when you start dissing ideas, the good ideas stop coming because they're afraid of the feedback they may get back.

Hmm, that's a good point. I didn't expect such a chain reaction... It does add up though when compared to some other communities. Now where is the facepalm smiley...
