Tempban on Kick

Post by Kerafym »

Duo brought up a good idea. A tempban on consecutive kicks. I like this idea a lot, it would help prevent people from fucking shit up.
However, DJ brings up another really good point. This could be abused.

Is there also a way to stop Duo from doing that thing where he automatically makes a vote pass when he joins spec or whatever?

2 options. 1, let specs vote, 2, make votes go down if someone who voted goes spec/dicos.

He also has some other way of making votes pass even when there isn't a majority =/

He makes the majority by going spec. His vote still counts, but he's not being counted towards the number of people.
Also, Archi, doing both wouldn't make sense. Unless you mean "Make their vote go down when they disco, but let spectators votes count."

I honestly see the abuse of this being a bigger problem than actual noobs joining. I haven't had a noob join a live game since like lick server was around. I have, however, been blatantly admin abused multiple times since then. Why would I want to give a POWER to EVERYBODY to FREELY ABUSE people? Doesn't make much sense to me.
I can make a tempban admin command. And maybe set up a subadmin to give to certain people who you wouldn't necessarily give admin to, but then again, I wouldn't really trust anyone with even just tempban that I wouldn't trust with a permanent ban. Then again, it's Guard's server, so it's his decision on who to trust or not. /shrug

Nah, fuck it then, no point in a tempban command when me/wufie/tensor can just ban and unban later.
