Can we please get the ban list extended past 50?

Our 50-person ban list has been full for the last year; Since the new registration, we have cycled through those 50 slots fully, and continue to, every day.

One of the suggestions we had was the following:

A 100-person permanent ban list, with:

an unlimited 24-hour "FIFO" temporary banlist.


It'd work this way. You'd have 100 slots where you could *permanently* ban an individual. Those would be for repeat offenders.

The 24-hour "rolling" ban list would always be available, however, even if the 100 was full, for a 24-hour period. First-on would roll off first.

This would have to be manually entered and not by script, to prevent a constant "overloading" or "refreshing" of the FIFO/rolling ban list.


... That's an idea we presented last week to a Linden --- in any case, the 50 just *has* to be increased in order for us to even *utilize* the new individual ban height.

It's certainly desirable. Is it possible? I hope so. I remember when the max. group limit was 15, due to technical constraints--later boosted to 25. I rejoiced with joy when Kelly Linden did that.

Similarly here, there's current code that limits the current max # on a ban list. That doesn't mean it can't be hurdled over; simply that it needs to be tackled in order for it to happen.

I'll add your feedback to this related issue too.

And as always, if you have a vote proposal on this or know of one, please don't hesitate to email me... [email]torley@lindenlab.com[/email] . I watch out for those.
