I have noticed alot lately that people seem to be joining our servers just to ruin the fun time other people are having. As soon as you try to !cp ban them, they leave and wait until the vote is over, and come back again. Also a fair few people understand the system well enough to avoid it entirely.
Last incident I found on GG10, was that after a little friendly banter between him and I, he decided he had a problem, repeatedly teamkilled the CTs, and had HLDJ playing etc etc. However he has a bind that will type "voteban Cassonberry" and then choose "hacking" as the option. He presses this bind over and over until the wait time is over to start a new ban...
So I started thinking that maybe it is a good idea to change the plugin, so when a vote is initiated for ban/kick/mute etc., the player that is the subject of the vote is not shown the box.
However I can only think of 1 pro, and several possible cons.
Pros:Cons:
- Problem people will not know it is happening, and will not leave
So perhaps !cp could also be limited to DtK members only on ALL servers, not just jailbreak. I think that it should be a privileged, and to get it, they have to prove themselves and earn it.
- Can be abused much more easily
- If a legit player is being votebanned, unless it is exclaimed over chat (as it usually is anyway) will not know, and won't be able to explain that it is wrong. This could be a big problem on GG#4.
- Anybody can use it
Anyway, thats just MY 2c.
Cass.
