I'm beginning to lean towards a votekick for members only. >_> - KarthXLR - 06-26-2008

I was playing on our server today, and this prick was on there. Wouldn't shut up, was annoying. Would be the perfect guy to grief. And of course, here are my picks for favorite statements:

"0 points Karth, WTF"
"HEAL ME HEAL ME HEAL ME I COULDA TAKEN THAT OUT IF YOU HEALED ME"
"BRB, UNINSTALLING"
"I made that up"

What was the last known standing on the votekick standing?

anything that puts someone above another on the server is forbidden, except skill.
if there's a douchebag on the server get an admin asap, there's a reason we load steam friends right ?
we'll be there in two shakes and smite him with the fist of god

Unfortunately adding a vote kick for people only on a list would not only be difficult, but I would, like Vandam, disagree with the premise as well.

If someone is acting like a dick, message an admin, theres a full list of admins here, I suggest you have them on your friends list.

Kor, myself, and Scotty can all remotely deal with situations as well without entering the server, same goes for duck/ain, but only on #2 and #3 respectively.

Muting would've been fine, actually. He just annoyed the piss outta' me.

But yeah, I'll contact one of you next time.

I don't think he was being that bad.  He wasn't mic spamming, being offensive, or griefing.  If anything, i think he was just enjoying himself man, and it sounded like he would play here again.

He certainly wasn't doing anything egregious enough to warrent a kick/ban.  Much worse happens every night with regulars, i mean we put up with you don't we  Big Grin.

Votekicks don't work anyway.

I can't tell you how many admins I annoyed to get stupid people to STFU. Then I got Luca to show me how to mute people...

I would have joyfully made his life hell.  Next time, call me.

Pretty much what Caff et all said. If it's just mic spamming though you can always mute them on your side. In the main menu there should be an option for muting players.

No, if theres any mic spamming Ill throw an admin mute on someone, "theres an option to mute someone" is not an excuse. When you cause a whole server to have to do that, then its a problem.

Not say this particular case had that problem, but its not fair to make everyone stop playing, his esc, go to players, then mute in game voice, because they feel the need to act like an ass.

I agree, I usually go by the is it bothering a significant amount of people rule.  Plus as an admin I dont feel like I can mute anyone because I need to know if they cross the line.

Sometimes if I'm not sure I'll throw up a vote, that in and of itself stops most people.

Sorry. I meant to say that if you have no other option (can't get ahold of any admins) then you can mute them on the client level.

Yeah, from what I remember, it wasn't that bad really. It isn't like you stopped badgering him either Karth Tongue

Maybe we could give a few people some semi-admin powers.  It can't hurt to give silence to a few more people.

I think we have a decent admin group as it is, but if we do add more I nominate Geoff.
