Expansion of Demi-Pharaoh Ban Powers (DPE)

by Nekojin


The Demi-Pharaoh Bans are a useful tool in maintaining order in Egypt, and the Legacy Law that allows DPs to do temporary bans instead of only permanent bans is a good expansion on that. However, that puts DPs in a bind - if they use a temp ban, and the person comes back and continues the behavior that they were banned for, that ban is effectively "wasted." Because of that, DPs are reluctant to use the shorter bans.

This law, if passed, will make escalated bans from the same DP to the same person all only count as one Ban usage.

Example: If JerkJoeBob is being a jerk, and DPDonna bans him for a day, and he comes back and continues being a jerk, she can then ban him for a week without consuming a second ban (and then a month, if he STILL keeps doing it, and finally perma-ban).

The purpose for this is that it would encourage DPs to use the lower bans without fear of using up most of their allotted bans on one trouble-maker.
