FORGIVE - You inform Avechna that this person isn't a bully

This command would remove suspect status

Many of us tend to piss of other organisations and defenders will show up, some of these defenders will declare but are probably not going to be hit back and so they gain suspect. Now that a certain ammount of suspects automaticly gives vengeance, It would be nice to have this option so we don't have to risk giving this person a free kill on us.

I would, I refuse to just go kick people because it's very unRP for me to do such a thing.

And there have been times I have gotten status on people that tried to summon me to safety. Certainly people will atleast forgive those... .

Or am I just that wierd for not punishing defenders.

I wouldn't do that either, because I don't raid in the first place. But most people will want to keep any avenger status they have, because the people who killed them defending are probably also the people who'll try to jump them on the highway. This would be a nice patch to work with, but it doesn't solve the issues with Avenger, and it's also highly abusable.

I like the idea. Would come in handy for accidental killings, reincarnations, things like that. And much better rp then saying "Come here to kick me to get rid of status"

Out of curiousity how would it be abusable, the command would obviously go in the catagory that can not be forced by telepathy,pooka, etc.
And verbal bullying into making people drop suspect already happens but then with a kick.

People can be coerced into forgiving status. Just one of those things that doesn't get abused all the time, but probably will eventually. It's also abusable as an excuse to keep Avenger the way it is, instead of changing it so you can't receive status for defending in the first place.

EDIT: By 'coerced' I don't mean forced by Pooka, possession and so on. I mean things like, "Forgive RandomGriefer or I'll enemy you to the city."

FURTHER EDIT: And I'm not saying it's a bad idea - This should probably be implemented. But it won't have that much impact in the game.

But that can be done anyway. Except you have to kick them.

I personally think it's kind of pointless, but trying to tack "abusable" onto it is just plain silly. Come on, people.

They can already do that, "come kick or we'll enemy you to the city"

And I think alot would do either "reply see if I care" or "issue "

Good idea, it would be unforceable of course.
