Kiyobi Posted June 28, 2010 Posted June 28, 2010 no map is fun to play for 30 minutes That's a funny way of spelling Badwater.
Chili Con Carnage Posted June 28, 2010 Posted June 28, 2010 Hey guys, just wanted to let you know that once I finish dealing with the last of the aftermath from the "Feds at the door" incident I mentioned last time I was on, I'll be back on the server as usual, regularly facestabbing hapless victims left and right. Tremble, and fear.
FireSlash Posted June 28, 2010 Author Posted June 28, 2010 I've increased the map exclusion length in mapchooser, so you now must go 8 maps before you can play dustrushwater again edit: Also added most of the maplist to the voting list, so there will be more variety without needing to nominate.

Hmm... are you also adjusting how many maps are listed at once?
Powerlord Posted June 29, 2010 Posted June 29, 2010 Hi, if I see someone on and just repeatedly taking teleporters and doing nothing else, it's an instant 4 hour ban. That is all.
atmuh Posted June 29, 2010 Posted June 29, 2010 why would that be a ban what rule is it breaking and someone repeatedly talking over the mic forever that everyone cant STAND isnt ban
WindStrike Posted June 29, 2010 Posted June 29, 2010 why would that be a banwhat rule is it breaking and someone repeatedly talking over the mic forever that everyone cant STAND isnt ban Speaking of which, how have I not been banned yet? I do this all the time.
Brushfire Posted June 29, 2010 Posted June 29, 2010 why would that be a banwhat rule is it breaking and someone repeatedly talking over the mic forever that everyone cant STAND isnt ban I am actually in agreement here, this someone is starting to grate on my last nerve.
atmuh Posted June 29, 2010 Posted June 29, 2010 Speaking of which, how have I not been banned yet? I do this all the time. no you dont you talk on the mic sure but its usually (mostly) relevant and its not COMPLETELY BRAINDEAD like some people
Powerlord Posted June 29, 2010 Posted June 29, 2010 why would that be a banwhat rule is it breaking At the very least, it's HLStatsX score abuse. More importantly, now that reserved slots aren't free, "wasting" a slot by not playing the game is going to be a kick at the very least (P.S. and spectating on a full server is going to count for this too); intentionally sitting there boosting other peoples score while contributing nothing is going to be a ban.
atmuh Posted June 29, 2010 Posted June 29, 2010 so if 2 engineers are doing nothing but sitting in the intel room with their sentries youre telling me that itd be wrong for them to have fun with teleporters while they wait for people to come into the intel room because thats just silly

However, when you have Scouts just sitting there running from the exit to the entrance and taking the teleporters repeatedly, they're doing nothing.
FireSlash Posted June 29, 2010 Author Posted June 29, 2010 (P.S. and spectating on a full server is going to count for this too). Maybe I should get around to setting up SourceTV like atmuh asked 10 eons ago.
Necro Posted June 29, 2010 Posted June 29, 2010 It looks like some trolls came in and votebanned Frogg. I thought the ban vote was restricted to reserved slot owners? Either way could we get an unban on Frogg? (Edit) Nevermind. Already taken care of. (Edit)(Edit) It looks like I got banned to by the trolls. I think it was the guys with the [sex] tags. (Edit)(Edit)(Edit) Thanks for the unban. You guys are fast.

(Edit)(Edit)(Edit) Thanks for the unban. You guys are fast. I was on there, too, and I think that 2 out of 3 of the [sex] people were "ok." It was just one of them who was instigating stupid stuff and calling people names. One of the other [sex] players kept telling him to stop and mentioned that he was "off the team" after repeatedly ignoring him. Also, people were trying to be silly and have hoovy boxing matches in the middle but FROGG would invariably come in and crash the party with a minigun or rawkets. That was prolly why they wanted to kick him. (Over 1/2 the server was complying with the melee only rule so I was getting a bit annoyed by FROGG, too) EDIT I thought the ban vote was restricted to reserved slot owners? Is there any way we could get a list of "Things reserved slot owners can do while others can't"? That'd be nice.
atmuh Posted June 29, 2010 Posted June 29, 2010 I thought the ban vote was restricted to reserved slot owners? reserved slot people can initiate a forced ban vote but everyone can type voteban
ParanoidDrone Posted June 29, 2010 Posted June 29, 2010 Maybe I should get around to setting up SourceTV like atmuh asked 10 eons ago. What does Source TV do, anyway?
Clefairy Posted June 29, 2010 Posted June 29, 2010 Is there any way we could get a list of "Things reserved slot owners can do while others can't"? That'd be nice. Chances are, if we do move back to charging for reserve slots, we're going to restructure which commands are available to reserved slots and which are available to the public... I would assume this is still a work in progress. What does Source TV do, anyway? http://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/SourceTV
FireSlash Posted June 29, 2010 Author Posted June 29, 2010 Tracked down the exploit they used and now using a modified version of customvotes.smx that doesn't contain !votemenu. All of [sex] was banned and a couple other guys. If anyone knows for sure who was instigating the bannings (The logs don't) then I can narrow them down.

Powerlord Posted June 29, 2010 Posted June 29, 2010 TF2 is part of today's Steam sale for $6.79, until 10am PDT/1pm EDT tomorrow. You'd think they'd bring it down to Halloween sale price, though.
ParanoidDrone Posted June 29, 2010 Posted June 29, 2010 http://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/SourceTV tl;dr weighted companion spectators don't take up slots? Sounds fine to me.

If anyone knows for sure who was instigating the bannings (The logs don't) then I can narrow them down. The only person I saw last night consistently using the !votemenu command yesterday was Mr. Hilter. He was using it on Turbine using teamchat. I think he was using teamchat to hide it from Vimk. I have listed his Steam page below. Steam Page: http://steamcommunity.com/id/dotseven/
