"Join a gang" popup defaults to yes - Mouse - 03-23-2020

As a result of this, if you're typing while someone sticks a flyer in your face you will automatically join the gang.  I got told to report it as a bug so I did that instead of bumping the thread in the suggestion forum.

I've suggested swapping the Yes and No buttons before but the argument against was that people's muscle memory is too strong and they would keep clicking the wrong button.

if you hit no by accident, you can always say "hey wait, sorry, I meant to hit yes. Can you show me again?"

if you hit yes by accident, there is literally no way to undo it or try again.

I think accidentally clicking the wrong button a couple times while you get used to the new muscle memory is better than automatically pressing the worst possible wrong button choice.

How about we make smacking someone with a gang flyer a progress-bar action?

Comedy option: force you to type out the name of the gang and hit enter.

Comedy option #2: Solve a simple Captcha-math-question to gain respect to join the gang.

I think its fine to switch em up for this one popup.

Comedy option #3: Button moves when you get a cursor near it, and does not respond to keyboard entry. You have to chase the button around the screen, really earn that entry.
