Kerberos 3,170 #2 Posted February 27, 2012 Currently this isn't against the rules. I have people on my server who join, ask for free hats, items etc then leave when they get told to "piss off" <-- exact words. Though it is annoying, I could've banned 3-4 people on my server for this, but unfortunately nothing I/we can do, that I know off. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If its not against the rules, it should be. No one should have to deal with some nub who's not even there to play but take up slot space and waste time.Also, Steam Cloud seems to be down for several people.

D: Best I'd do, not sure about other Admins, would be to join the server with this player, view him for 5 or so mins, if he doesn't play while begging, kick him, or temp ban for 30 mins. I'd do nothing else, because he's technically breaking no rules. All he's doing is wasting player slots, So kicking him = problem solved for that day.

T_TXD Still, why even put up with players who are here to take up slots and waste time, as well impending the team's efforts at playing and enjoying the server? You WANT the server to empty? Do you know how boring it gets on PLR?! DO YOU!? (Not directed at you Kerberos, simply stating what I see as a regular numbnut to TX servers.) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nano 7,892 #6 Posted February 27, 2012 A request has been made to Mana to integrate in a votegag, which would prevent text chat. If that happens then this problem would no longer exist. Just some light at the end of the tunnel. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Just some light at the end of the tunnel. That's as useful as votekick/voteban in my eyes. For example; He joined, has to be voted to be gagged in the first place, which you could votekick or ban in the place of gag. Speaking of which; Get the server to type "Voteban" and get rid of him, if he tries to rejoin, he'll get the hint. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Just some light at the end of the tunnel. Hopefully it'll work like VoteScramble, where it requires a lot less votes than a kick or a ban would.Add that it be temporary. XD That's as useful as votekick/voteban in my eyes. For example; He joined, has to be voted to be gagged in the first place, which you could votekick or ban in the place of gag. Speaking of which; Get the server to type "Voteban" and get rid of him, if he tries to rejoin, he'll get the hint. How many times...HOW many times does this have to be repeated. It only works if you have people that are playing that HAVE A BRAIN. At these hours I'm playing with people across the planet who can't understand "WAT ENGLISH MENS?". It works both ways, someone votes to get a troll muted, it can easily be turned to get you banned in the next 120 seconds. Sometimes I wish I had some dosh for dono.
