How about a semi white list? People on the whitelist have no griefing protection applied, but random people would. That way the regulars/trust people wouldn't be annoyed and it would prevent new people from griefing. Is such a thing possible?
Yes, it's possible. I'll implement it if people want.
That would be a permissions plug-in, have a builders permission class which new users must be added to from a permission-less or near permission-less class. Most commonly called a grey list.
Exactly. I already have a permissions plugin installed, so it just means adding groups with the right permissions for "builders" and for "promoters".
We'll run a poll to see if people like this idea more than the way it is now, or if they would rather have a full whitelist.
