OK, it may be time to restrict booting

The feature is being over used by egotistical commanders who have no mercy on anyone ..

We need times and dates for pkk. Make sure to alert @Allegs if you see this happening, especially from any one individual in particular.

The problem is...they are good commanders....they just need to accept that some players aren't perfect soldiers.The game IS about war,but the players are just wanting to play a game...they can't be perfect. And shouldn't be expected to be so.

What kind of changes are you proposing? Limited number of boots per game? No booting anyone of a lower (or higher, perhaps) rank? Boots requiring the permission of the team a la a resign or mutiny? The ability for the enemy commander to veto the boot and keep the player on your team? Boots requiring a special passcode to be typed in chat for the boot to go through? Requiring the second in command to sign off on all boots? The requirement of written and verbal warnings to be filed by the commander with his or her faction's specific hierarchy before he's allowed to boot anyone like in a corporate setting? Boots requiring the physical travel of the commander to the player's house with a steel toed boot to kick him off his own computer?

No, just report @#(!ty boots to @Allegs, they will issue warnings, and people will fall in line.

to me the most suitable option is QUOTE Boots requiring the physical travel of the commander to the player's house with a steel toed boot to kick him off his own computer[/quote]

Yea, maybe turn the boot feature off for awhile (it's been done before) and the commanders will just have to accept what ever behavior from the players they let on the team in the first place. People have to use the bathroom sometimes. I was booted for base sitting AFTER I VOLUNTEERED TO STAY IN BASE BECAUSE OUR TEAM WAS 1 UP!

pretty sure this game will lose what little is left of its commanders if the boot feature is disabled

the rules are very lenient on the side of commanders for booting. we're pretty much allowed to boot for any reason (with a few exceptions).

however, a general public appeal for commanders to be more forgiving is fair. I may consider it

Why would I do that when the team I was on was suddenly losing due to an un-expected bomb run,then we go down players because of the boots. No, I didn't feel like re-joining the team that just wrongfully booted me.
