Embassy Request Limit

Postby New Ex Patria » Sun Jun 24, 2018 4:53 pm

I know a lot of people get quite annoyed over some certain embassy collectors at times, those who persist sending requests even after you've repeatedly denied them. I understand that the 7-day buffer was put in place most likely to help prevent this, and I really don't know what we'd do without it, but I think it may be convenient to take it a bit further.

What I'm suggesting is that sending embassy requests after repeatedly denied by the recipient (say, after three denials in the period of six months) should be considered a form of spam, or if possible, stopped by game mechanics altogether. I know, for me at least, it would make it a lot more convenient for embassy collectors to be prevented from spamming my regions whenever they can, and simply creating new puppets when they get banned.

Just something to think on.

Banning nations from your region will prevent them from sending embassy requests.

As I did mention, certain regions will often switch puppets regularly.

Probably makes sense to either increase the time limit or set it so that one region can just blanket block another region from sending invites altogether.

Such a block list should be private, otherwise it serves much the same purpose as an embassy list.

I'd like to blanket block all or individual regions toggle. I really hate being inundated with request "spam" as Delegate of a GCR and when I was an RO. My policy on in-game embassies is very strict and it creates a mass notification "spam" all the time.

It's not necessary to need to happen, but it would be nice.
