  1. I think there should be a different rule when it comes to residential admin permissions. All Residential admins have permission to add perms but not an admin perm. But when it comes to removing admins from the list, a residential admin is able to be removed with ease by another admin on the residence. My thinking that Owners should be the advocator and have the control who's admin and who needs to be removed as admin.

    Removes a lot of intentional trolling of perms. And you say, "Why would you do that, wouldn't that encourage griefing?" If you really gave a person admin, they are apparent that you trust them enough to edit your res and permissions.

    Thanks :)

  5. Great job for bringing this up because if you have a prankster admin and a group of people who are working, you don’t want them to “lose” their admin to someone else. +1

  6. Maybe a sub flag for two tier admin flag. Admin one can has all admin perms and can remove other admins. Admin two has all perms but can not remove other admins.
  7. That would work as well

  8. To better understand something, can I get you/others to explain why you give admin to players in the first place?

    For example:
    What permissions are you wanting to give to a player when you decide to give them admin access?
    Is it a convenience to give them all flags at once?
    Is it to allow them to set permissions for other players?
    Etc?

    There's a few changes to flags that I've mentioned a few times to chickeneer that this might help to flesh out.

  10. As for why I give admin to others is when I have to change biomes, res messages, or if I am using all the perms of the res.

    Sure it's convenient to give someone admin to another player who's building a whole res for someone. It removes 4 or 5 commands that you will need to select or type out.

    I am sure that there are cases which you will need to set temporary perms on a residence but not give admin or remove admin. I am trying to fair our the perm permissions. AncientTower had a good idea for which there is a higher tier of admin that essentially an admin which is right under owner rank.

  11. I forgot about those reasons for admin access. Not that they are intended, per say.

    How often do you give admin to a player that you WANT to be able to change perms in any manner? Percentage or ratio is fine.

  12. I have alternate accounts which I give myself admin too for my three reasons above. I rarely give perms out willy-nilly but I would go through and give the permissions needed with the owner account or the admin account. So actually 4 uses of the admin perms. I give 32% admin if trustworthy, 68% where I run through all the permissions.

  13. Admin flag also allows for /res loc list, and it is the only way to share it... @krysyy
    I also give admin flag in case I need someone I trust to give/do something on my behalf if im absent

    Anyways +1

  14. Personally I only give admin to my alts so that I can do anything on all accounts. Other then that I give specific flags. I don't use this personally but I can see how others would find this useful, so definitely would be good to have. Especially if you gave admin to multiple people, they wouldn't be able to remove others without the owner knowing..
  15. The reason I ask is that admin flag was originally intended for alternate accounts or family members who you trust with EVERYTHING, even the ability to unclaim your residence. Obviously that focus has shifted a bit since.

    It's been discussed before that we need something between basic and admin perms that allows the giving of all perms necessary to build, use, etc with one convenient option, but not the delete everything and remove perms bit.

  16. Im pretty sure admins dont have the power to unclaim or to rrset the residence 80% sure... And if it’s possible it should be made immediately so only the owner can perform these actions

  17. Talking about when it was originally added as a flag. It's since changed (I think).

    *goes to test*
    *confirmed*
  18. +1. Though it would stop me from having a little fun with people sometimes :p.

  19. Nah it's the irritating part where you are building and someone removes perms because they don't like you. That is a protection against those such occasions
