Re: AWIY\'s blacklist of dishonest peoples
I think all of this also goes with the requests that keep popping up to "add diplomacy to the game". Adding diplomacy options to a menu would place game-restrictions on the actions. Such as game-managed NAPs.
The way it is now we have ultimate diplomacy and unlimited options. Very real world but that isnt always what all gamers would prefer. They want an impartial referee. I can see the advantage to both sides of the discussion and Im not sure which one would be best. Best for game play? probably continue with it unmoderated by forum or game menus. Best for sales? possibly a menu-managed diplomacy feature would be good but I dont see Johan working on anything that major anytime soon.
Besides, this would be another of those "there are plenty of THOSE games already out there so lets not change one of the things that makes us nicely unique".
(of course since I mostly play solo I wouldnt mind abit more recognition by the AIs of my gifts)
