    You know how in WarZ, in order to be team with someone (not be able to hurt him, etc.), you have to do ./friend (player name)? Well, some people don't want to be team with people. Including moderators. Like, for example, Team Holy consists of a moderator named @Mojang. Now, when he doesn't want to team with somebody, he doesn't add them to his friends list. However, doing so, that means the people who he is not friends with cannot contact him if they need help with an issue. Like, just recently, a player is flaming at me, and because I didn't have a WarZ moderator friended (because not all of them want to team with me), I couldn't ./msg him/her to get on. I had to PM him on the forums, and by then it was too late.

    To fix this problem, I propose a new command called ./team (player name). This would basically replace the function of ./friend, so that way moderators could friend you without having to team with you on WarZ. Thus resulting in you being able to ./msg a moderator across a different server, asking him for help.

    Leave your thoughts below.

    You can always use TS to contact a moderator. If not that, throw a message in the shoutbox. We are planning to add /report where you can contact any trial moderator on that server branch, as well as all global mods currently on the Brawl network.

    Better yet, just allow any player to be able to contact a moderator in-game with /msg.

    This is a great idea, that should be added. Although you can contact them on TS, some people can't run TS so this would be a advantage to them.

    What if you don't know what moderators are on at the time? /report > /msg

    I'm pretty sure we already have this for GMOD's. Many people msg me after I kill them, and they aren't in my friends list. As well twice I've been messaged to login for something by a player I didn't know.

    I like the idea, but as I stated above I'm pretty sure you can still message mods if they're online. I personally try to have a small friends list due to login messages constantly filling my screen, so even with this idea you may not get them in your friends list.

    Also as Raven said a new command will come that will deal with all of this.

    Great idea I totally agree to this, but in order to make this work the compass would need to be re coded to find enemy team members and your actual teamates instead of friends and non-friends.

    They should just do /team create (name) and limit it too 10
    People. Team holy 15v6ed us earlier. It is seriously stupid. With 8-10
    People on 1 team this will divide teams and make fights more fair!

    Or we could go back to the old friend system where if they friend you on the hub they don't friend you on warz v:

    What if we just allowed all staff members to be reachable via PM regardless of friend status?

    That could work, but let's say I'm really good friends with a non-staff player, let's say, munkeywr3nch. However, what if I don't want to team with him on WarZ, but I want to have him friended so I can hang out with him and see which servers he's on?
