it would be cool if in the rights dialogue if you
could put -[citnumber] to make rights available to
everyone EXCEPT that citizen... good if you have a
public building world but dont want certain people
to build... or if some people cant keep their
mouths shut-make them not able to speak.. also
would help in banning people..

just
a
thought

I already posted that here, similar.
No need to specify 1,2,-3,4,-5 - that doesn't make too much sense.

Better would be to have an "Invert" choice in a checkbox, so all
numbers are either be treated as "allow" or "deny"

What about allowing everyone but tourists to build (or any other right)
I don't think it's possible right now.

I like it....though now AWCOM can make me be quiet if I don't agree with
their views *X-files music plays* O_O

for now, you script a bot that can take a world query at start up then
delete all tourist objects and watch for new tourist objects :) I believe a
XelaGot script can even do this :)

Well you've noticed how someone could have *,326308,325768 or something
haven't you? Same basic concept

1. your example makes no sense at all, neither with Dereks
idea nor with mine

2. you did not understand my idea

With something like :

invert selection : [x]
enter : 123, 345, 456

you have allowed enter for everyone except for these 3 people.

I think it is OK to bring this idea up often.

As soon as a world gets larger you get into trouble bringing
enough builders into world options. Worlds that are larger
than a P50 are not interesting for a certain usage :
No registry, as open as possible but with a way to exclude
vandals.

But it makes no sense to explicite include some people from
the list and to explicite exclude some others.
It makes only sense to have either an exclude list OR an
include list.

Your example was : 1,2,-3,4,-5

But having 1,2 and 4 INcluded automatically EXcludes 3 and 5
so you need not specify these two as excluded.

That's what Felix did not understand and that's what I tried
to explain. His example was "*,326308,325768" - that never
makes sense, you allow everyone plus these 2 citizens to do
something? Everyone already includes these two!

The checkbox would say "This is an EXclude-list", having it
not checked makes the list be an INclude list.

EXclude lists mean "Everyone except for ... may do something"
INclude lists mean "No one except for ... may do something"

sigh, hard to explain but I hope now it's clearer

ohhhh i meant that putting *,-[#'s] would deny that right to those citizen numberd-but
of course the - sign isnt needed
