    Disable a Player's FC Chat privilege

    is there a rank setting, that disables a player's ability to type in FC chat? rather than kick them out of FC outright?

    Nope. The best you can do is make a new rank with zero privileges and a silly name.

    If you don't mind me asking,.. If you don't want them to talk, why bother having them in your Free Company?

    it's like timing out someone in a stream chat on twitch, or giving them a temp forum ban.

    ie. things get heated, can stop someone from saying something nasty, that they might regret in the future.

    Remove the offending individual(s) from the FC and allow them back only if they can behave. If they can't, they can go spew their bile elsewhere.

    Private rooms make that far less practical a solution than it used to be, particularly in a situation like Fornix's example B.

    That's probably a bad idea if they have a personal room in the FC house. That costs 300k...

    That's not the FC's problem if the owner of said room decides to be a total a-hole towards their FC in any way.

    I don't think that's much of an active solution tbh. Yes it might quiet the moment down, but people talk when they have an opinion they want heard, albeit they don't always do it in the best way possible.

    I think the fc leader and officers should be willing to step in and speak to the people involved. I recently had this happen where one member was openly discussing something similar to the selling of wedding bands and another fc member was very offended. They had it out a bit while I was stuck in the dungeon, but I got them to hold off until I got out. We did a party with the 3 of us with me mediating and they agreed to disagree. I stepped in not because I wanted to (I really wasn't feeling well that day) but because as fc leader it's my responsibility to. If I had taken the easy way out and muted one or both, I think they'd have been offended and probably left. I know I would if I were in their shoes.

    This moderation is very childish and can be abused very easily. What is offensive to one person might not be offensive to another. This is a feature with a high rate of abuse.
