Title: Show reason for ban in banmenu
Post by: blt950 on December 24, 2009, 03:10:40 AM
It's a short suggestion, but is a little useful.
Its that if you ban somone, you can see the bans in !banmenu. You can see: who, when, and by who. Why not add reason of the ban there too? It would be useful for server owners :)

And Merry Christmas!  ;D

If you click the red X (Unban button), a window pops up asking confirmation of the unban... within that window is a 'reason' line.
Are you asking that be included as one of the columns instead of just in the unban confirmation?
I'm not sure why it wasn't already, but knowing Megiddo's coding style, I'd guess that due to the fact the reason could be long/typed out, it would mess up the tidyness of that first window.

So as I understood it will be added? Or it would up if it would?

No, I'm asking where you mean for the reason to be.
The unban button confirmation area already shows a reason.
The main list wouldn't display well unless we limit the ban reason, which in itself isn't a good idea.

Idea: What about making the unban menu like a scoreboard format. Have it show the person banned and some other basic information in the header (like time remaining/unban date and admin who banned) and then if you click on it, it'll expand down to show the reason they were banned, as well as the other information stored by ULX Ban. You could also have a button on there to unban the individual.

I dunno, just an idea, maybe I'll make a plugin ;)

I didn't add it because I was worried about formatting. (JamminR knows me too well, apparently; get out of my head! :P)

As the design currently stands, it just wouldn't look good there. Gui's not really my cup of tea though, so anyone's welcome to improve on it. :)
