Im trying to get an idea how to create a way players can file a complaint to administative personel. Heres my idea:

The player creates an atom, preferably an object. Define the object's variables, and place it on a list only accessable to administrators.

Can I get some assistance?

A datum would be of better use to you.

Example:

var
    Complaints
        Complaint_Board
Complaints
    var
        list
            Complaints=list()
mob
    verb
        Complaint_Board(msg as message|null)
            if(!Complaint_Board)
                Complaint_Board=new
            if(!Complaint_Board.Complaints[src.ckey])
                Complaint_Board.Complaints[src.ckey]=list()
            Complaint_Board.Complaints[src.ckey]+=msg
    admin
        verb
            View_Complaints()
                var/Complaint=input(src,"Which complaint do you wish to view?","[world.name]") in Complaint_Board.Complaints|null
                var/list/Complaints=Complaint_Board.Complaints[Complaint]
                src<<"<b>Complaints made by: [Complaint]</b>"
                for(var/X in Complaints)
                    src<<Complaints[X]

var/Complaints

mob/verb/Acess_List()
    if(src.key == "Siientx")
        src <<browse("[Complaints]","window=complaints")
    else
        src <<"Acess to list is denied."
    
mob/verb/File_Complaint(T as text)
    Complaints = "[Complaints][html_encode(T)] - <i>[html_encode(src.name)]</i><br>"

Because /objs are just datums with a lot of unnecessary vars and procs tacked on that just take up extra memory of you aren't using them.

If its not on the map, it probably doesn't need to be an obj.
