New player (after leaving nexus LAYER for the first time) are automatically placed on this "Team" to foster friendships and whatnot. Basically let them have a kind of first home. Kudos to tb36 for the original idea, thought I'd flesh it out a bit more...years down the road :D

People on this team cannot place bases, perma drones, or deploy trade slaves. They can control their ship, combat slaves, and temp drones like any other person.

The team has "unlimited" character slots, but inactive characters are automatically and silently booted after a certain amount of time.

It also has a team tithe.




The idea is for people to meet other people, find a group of friends, and leave the starter team TOGETHER, to make their own team or join an existing team.

i love this idea, do it!

Long as no long term stayer declare themselves dictator.

How about naming the team Nexus Kings, which was named by Gold Spacer.

Love the idea, hate the flaws, being you can't remove someone who is abusing another player.

If it's possible to prevent them from shooting/tractoring one another (the exception being tractoring someone whilst in a squad) we're clear... hopefully abusive messages could be picked up by mods: give them permanent access to the newbie team chat.

Here it is, I really do think this could be the solution having no greeter system anymore. Make it so that every mod has access to this team chat. Also make two teams. One being earthforce the other pirates. Earthforce being for the peaceful people who cant attack each other and pirates can do whatever they want within team (this way chosing earthforce or pirate actually means something).

put the devs chars as the dir and councils of the two teams so that they can keep an eye on them.

good idea.

I like it, I like it alot, Just do it.

This Idea will never get through purely on the fact, it woud require someone to watch its team chat to check no higher levels are nit picking them winding them up it takes one person in the team to ruin its life for everyone else, such as once your on the team you can shoot other players, this could cause people to pod the other lower team members in a way that would make them leave the team and not reap the benefit this could cause.

How is this different from help chat anyway?

Its to build relationships with other players, I mean back in the day this was done in all chat but most people in all chat are idiots nowadays, which puts people off, a Team does provide some support but I think the argument of the Pro's and Con's could go on all day.

But help chat is basically noob team chat. The only thing they are missing is a way to view a list of those currently online in Help chat, which would indeed be a nice addition.

Yeah, that would be a good addition but only mods and greet should have access to it.

all mods are councys, all admins are directors, and all greeters are officers..

let them be able to build bases, they gotta learn that !!!
