/lockdown

The idea could use a little tweaking.. but no, I'm not joking at all

Maybe the tradelane part could be taken out - perhaps the jump gate lock down.

But, if you look at Valina (battleship unity having the Colorado jump gate under its direct control) you can see where jumpgates could be actively locked down. Manhattan locking down after juni killed one measly person in a system of millions (ok, the lanes were still active, but they had to kill the battleship blocking it first.. so.. drop the lanes knocked out thing)

Also, the rules state that is -ANYONE- owning something (a base) says "dont land there Mr.X!" then Mr. X cant land there unless he feels up for getting a sanction for OOC actions.

The rules are already in place.. the sanctions are already pouring in... this cuts out the middle-man.

Well, that is a very good point you brought up L.L. . . the only issue to this is that Discovery is a bit different compared to original Vanilla. . . Granted, it would be nice if the ID of a player (Lawful / Unlawful) would reflect on JG access in a system . . This alone would eliminate the need for this command. (Why would Liberty give JG access to the Rogues, for example) . . .
Granted, in this example, the unlawful can still access jump holes for their escape

The fact is that Discovery never implemented this and, to introduce this now could be a bit of a challenge to the community . . (In my opinion)

Now to your other quote on the rules. . It would be nice if a game mechanic can be implemented to keep all players from a OORP dock on a base . . And, granted, implementations have been made to control some of this already. The problem with me is that if players are given the power to be judge and jury, there will be abuse and cause a lot of discontent in the community . . (By cutting out "the middle man", as you say, you are eliminating the Administration team on these decisions) . .
And I believe I understand your reasoning on this L.L. It will help lighten the load for the admins . . But I feel that it may cause more damage than it does good. . .

Honestly, I feel to give the cops a break, they should be able to shoot down the lanes to catch someone without any repercussions to their reputation . .

Granted, I am Not a Mod expert at all, but it seems that this could be done with the least amount of work and have a lesser chance of abuse compared to the other idea in this thread . . .
