/plank is a command that will force a player to leave a game scene (walk the plank). When a player is forced to walk the plank they will be ejected from the ship or building and placed on either the docks of their home island (if planked from a ship) or the docks of the island they are presently located (if planked from a building). (Note: it's possible for a player to plank themselves)
To plank a player from a ship, you need to have officer privileges. To plank from a building, you must own or manage it. Owners and managers cannot be planked from their own buildings. Nobody can be planked from any infrastructure building.
The whole crew is notified when an officer has forced a player to walk the plank on a ship. The notice includes the name of the player who walked the plank along with the player who issued the command. Jobbing pirates will also be removed from their jobbing crew.
Players are often planked for:
- Lazing about excessively
- Not following orders from a commanding officer
- Spamming
- Disconnecting
- Foul language
Usage
/plank <player name>
Example: /plank Undertow
