Bouncer servant for housing, please

No, not really.

However, we could use some manner of removing people from your house once they're inside it.

A lot of folks want to keep their houses open for friendly neighbors to take a look inside them and whatnot. But if one of those neighbors wants to come in and start ERPing or something, there's currently no way of stopping them from doing this.

Everyone in your FC will need to blacklist them, but they'll still be VISIBLE in the house, AFAIK.

Even if it was a command that forced everyone inside the house to zone outside it to the front door, that would work fine.

It also appears like it might be possible to relinquish a house if there's a person standing AFK inside it. If that isn't the most evil method of trolling ever devised, I don't know what is...

Very few fcs would coordinate on that level. Not everyone has the same opinion on what does and doesn't provoke blacklisting.

Now that would be very useful as presently you can't demolish a house if someone is inside. Although it probably would be easier for SE to give home owners an option to teleport players outside when they select demolish, than to make a npc for it. Would be strange to have a npc/furnishing at the house whose purpose is to make leaving the house easier.

All that said I'm all for new furnishings so I support the idea of a bouncer even just for cosmetic purposes.

Quick question:

Let's say my house is open, my friend comes in, then I toggle my house to closed. My friend won't get teleported outside to the yard?

Nope. I do that all the time so people don't come barging in on roleplay.

An option to just kick people out of the house in the housing menu would be the easiest option. Also useful would be a "housing blacklist" that prevents certain people from entering the house (but others can still come in).

This would be lovely. I let my first personal house get reclaimed due to not wanting to deal with rude neighbors, took me 8 months after the 45 days to reclaim before I was able to find another...

After a certain point I believe you can report a player for harassment if you asked them to leave the house but they still stay around especially if the chat is bothersome or directly aimed at someone who does not appreciate it.

Yeah, and with the upcoming move to Kugane, this could potentially be the most horrific means of trolling ever.

And they should all be lalafells for comedic effect. :D

Oh man, I better close my house then. I do not really see anyone in my neighborhood, but it only takes one bad apple to sour the experience.

There is going to be maintenance the day before Shirogane arrives. You could simply lock your house before maintenance. If you log out inside a house/apartment/fc room you always log back in outside.

Would be cool if you could get some beast tribe peeps to hire as bodyguards.

Uh oh, it's worse than I thought...

So, if someone is standing IN THE YARD of a house, it cannot be moved or relinquished??! :O

I uh...yeah...

I THINK and now don't quote me on this, that you have to have a striking dummy in the yard for people to interact with for them to stop you from relinquishing. I want to say it will boot them off the land so long as they're not interacting with furnishings.

I mean... e.e if people are bugging you, maybe you should just keep your door locked?

If someone is sitting in your house just to bug you, just keep dropping a partion on top of them. They'll keep getting glitch stuck. The smart ones will sprint and escape. Act like it's fun for you! (Maybe it will be fun and you guys might end up friends...? xD)


Queue up for something slow as a dps. Tell them your queue popped. Go to housing menu and select "move to entrance. " You will teleport instantly like your queue popped. Hide until they leave and lock them out.

Lol. This thread.

Or we could get the option that's ten times easier and just have an option to kick people out?

FCs that want to ensure a spot in the new housing will have their members stand in every FC or privately owned large and medium house or yard in the existing server wards so they cannot move. It would not be difficult given the limited number of large and medium houses in each ward. Bad housing is bad.
