Plank

/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). It is possible for players to plank themselves, but only from a ship.

To plank a player from a ship, a pirate must have officer privileges. To plank from a building, a pirate must own or manage it. Owners and managers cannot be planked from their own buildings. Nobody can be planked from any infrastructure building. If a Jobbing pirate is planked, he or she will also be removed from their jobbing crew.

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.

The "dismiss" option on the crew panel for jobbing pirates functions as a shortcut for the plank command. Like the plank command, it always dismisses a jobber, and if the jobber is standing aboard a ship that belongs to the jobbing crew it will also return them to their home island.

Reasons for planking vary widely, but some officers will plank pirates for doing the following:
 * Lazing about excessively
 * Not following orders from a commanding officer
 * Spamming
 * Disconnecting
 * Foul language

Usage /plank  Example: /plank Undertow
