[REJECTED] ReadOthersPMs Permission

Post by BobKare »

Something I think would be very useful, is the ability for admins to read other's private messages sent on the server.

It's a simple idea, but would be very useful.

There should be a permission, e.g. ReadOthersPMs, and a per rank limit. As the Kick/Ban/Promote/Demote/etc permissions has. This means that with this hierarchy:

Admin
SupOp
Op
Builder
Member
Guest

You can make so Op's can read guest's PM's, SupOp's can read Builder's PM's, and Admin read everyone's PM's, etc. You get the thought.

Thanks considering,

-BobKare

Like Pyro said, /Spectate already allows you to read others' PMs. And all PMs are logged, unless you uncheck that option.

It's not a command for reading PM's, but it is so all PM's sent will display for the player with the permission, like:

from Player1 to Player2: This is a very secret message

And only the server owner can read the log. And who reads through the log for fun?

It's not for finding out what 2 players are talking about. It's general.

Personally, I believe users should be entitled to some means of privacy, this seems like a very intrusive idea.

This could work backwards if you wanted, so that if you are spectating somebody, you can no longer read their PMs without the permission.

Or maybe an /allcmds command, shows what everyone is typing that isn't broadcasting throughout the server, (Includes PM's, Rank Messages (@@<rankname>), and failed commands (/kcik).).

/allcmds on (Turns All commands on)
/allcmds off (Turns All commands off)

I belive he's assuming my logs are ****ed up. In that respect he's completely right.
