I just lost 10% RP and 10% credits, got booted earlier…I spend (like many) hours building/testing and that is usually also doing things like turning off weather/using destroy, muscle memory… so it will happen that I instinctively destroy, etc. If I get srvnopermission I say “oh, oops”, and move on. It will happen accidentally again, and almost noone who does this accidentally will have bad intentions.

I dunno if you have a problem with people actually making them work but I’d think no permission is plenty.

I don’t particularly care if the RP/Credits are refunded, I want to point out that while bouncing between test servers and HWS I may try to destroy using console or turn off an annoyance like I usually would before realizing I can’t by getting ‘srvNoPermission’. I think that is enough and that the punishment system is a little ridiculous and should be adjusted to the default of telling you ‘you cannot do that’, there’s really no need to punish someone for causing no harm.

Sorry for the inconveniences @imtimex

We had one guy who were able to do bad things with console commands.
I reported it to Eleon and they fix it with Alpha 10.
That is just a very very pro-active counter help against such bad things.

But as always with automatic stuff, it might hurt the wrong players sometimes.
In your case it was just one time a typo and is blocked by the server anyways.

I refunded it for now.

Ouch. Exploiters making it hard for everyone else!

I understand and will try to be more careful. Thanks RexXxuS.

We will change it for the next season to a perma kick and get special notifications in the backend about such users.
And only ban, if a command came through which should really not (like the dm command which triggered the whole feature)
