Cooldown Timers (Moderating Idea)

Add cooldown timers for moderating.

For example: If player x is chatbox spamming and I wish to remove his right to the chat box for 2 days, then I would be able to remove chat box rights...

And the idea part is: have a timer I can set.
Days: Hours: Minutes.
2: 0: 0

Once the timer is up, the rights are automatically returned.

Why is this good?

Players can see when their privileges return. Also, I (and other advisors) have a real life. If I intend to remove someone's rights, but I cant get to a pc (or worse, ever forget to promptly return rights) then there can be problems.

I'm pretty sure this wouldn't be too hard to code in. I think this would be beneficial.

7 people think this is a good idea

It's just a simple idea that helps the community know what to expect - and makes things much easier for advisors because now we can set a penalty that is fair and it won't linger any more than it should.

(due to forgetfulness to return the rights, etc)

It's actually a good idea, I just can;t resist my knee jerk reaction to something that sounds authoritarian.
