The Factions Addon

With the addition of factions, i don't exactly believe it fair for people (moderators) to go about flying around, and /tp ing to people, that defeats the point of the factions mod.

I have an idea, from what i did on my server.
Either they can relinquish the power of /tp
Or they can keep the /tp and not be in a faction.

It worked well with my server, and hopefully you'll take my suggestion, and see the flaw in the system




p.s. I'd rather give up my power of teleporting

Well, then why have moderators then?

The point of having moderators is so they can moderate. I for one would rather have a flying, teleporting moderator kick griefer butt over one who has to manually walk over to the trouble site in order to fix a problem.

Although I must agree, having factionalized moderators can possibly be a nightmare, considering a possibility for Moderator Abuse. However, simple rules can be put in place to disallow moderator power abuse; from what I believe, such rules will be followed.

I say: Keep the /tp, keep the factions, and make it clear that moderators are not to abuse such powers.

In terms of defining moderator abuse, I propose that the use of tp outside of moderating conflict be highly discouraged. Would that be a good compromise?

I like this Idea, but a more "hard wired" solution would be good. Because ghostie can't be on 24/7 to monitor the server and his mods.
Cause it's really easy to agree to something and then when they aren't looking, do the opposite.
