Base Question...


Ad Astra

Ok, maybe I am having a brainfart here but, is there a way to lock sg members from adding personal salvage, like the loyalty reward pieces to the base? We are having an issue with getting it across to everyone not to do that... and it would be nice to be able to just have an across the board lock..

thanks,
Elvnsword

If you're asking if there's a way to lockout people from editing the base, which is what I'm reading it as, it's on the Supergroup> Settings options.

I'd have to double-check, but that setting does not prevent someone from "Adding a Personal Item" to the base, which is what elvnsword09 is referring to... I think. Things like the comic covers, weapons and trophy cases, and the Arachnos and Longbow Flyers.

Personally, as the main base designer for two bases, if someone adds one without asking, I reciprocate the consideration by deleting it without asking. Harsh, maybe... but I really do have better things to do than remind people repeatedly not to do this without asking, especially when I *have* all the aforementioned items available. If they were wanted, they'd already be there...


Where to find me after the end:
The Secret World - Arcadia - Shinzo
Rift - Faeblight - Bloodspeaker
LotRO - Gladden - Aranelion
STO - Holodeck - @Captain_Thiraas

Obviously, I don't care about NCSoft's forum rules, now.

Ah, I was thinking you had to be in edit mode to do that for some reason. Sorry for the confusion. I've been up all night, as usual.

/this, you cannot stop someone from placing personal items in a base, you can stop them from using the normal base editor but not from adding personal items

That's no excuse, I've been up all night, too.

Is an easy thing to confuse anyway, since you'd THINK that would fall under the same permission/restriction... but no, they can dump that stuff in there all they want... /e facepalm

Honestly, it's why I wish they would NOT fix the bug that allows a given character to place such items only once. Eventually, they'd run out, and I wouldn't have to monitor it as diligently.

So you don't feel the ambiance of the medieval library is enhanced by some comic book posters?

Or any other base that isn't designed as a "personal" space, honestly. Those items, specifically, are just so much "wall trash" to me. And honestly, the AV/Hero "tropies" aren't a lot better. How many butt-capes can Ghost Widow lose, anyway?..

I agree about the AV souvenirs, I rarely use them.

But I have used a couple of the comic book covers as wall art in the"lounge" portion of most of my bases. The mournful pic of Manti & Psyche fits well in my villain base, BTW.
