If you put up a banner, to protect a certain area, normally you are of opinion to protect something important. This mechanics is only useful in multiplayer games on servers, because you don't need to protect your stuff from your own changes in singleplayer.

Messing around with those I found some flaws:

1) Say, the banner allows you access to a certain area, either by you being on a list, or by alignment protection and you having enough alignment. The banner is owned by someone else. Either you or the previous owner places it. Self-protection "on". You are not able to access the banner (owned by someone else), but you are able to break it.

-> That way, you can take over someone elses buildings and even lock the previous owner out. You break the old banner and place your own. -> This shouldn't be possible, at least with self-protection "on".

-> Be careful, to whom you grant access to your buildings.

2) and 3) I don't want to post those here, because they are more severe and allow cheating on the servers. I'd like to keep this as secret as possible.

I have no possibility to contact Mevans in private. I know, this is possible via facebook, but I don't have it and don't want it. If someone has a possibility to contact Mevans, I'll hand the information over to them. Mevans might even know about those bugs already.
