Childsplay Posted January 13, 2009 Posted January 13, 2009 Ive been to our server numerous times and get the server full message and i think it would be a good idea to kick the least important person to make room for members. This is just a suggestion but one ive seen work great in the past, being a member should always have its rewards. Quote
Ackmey Posted January 13, 2009 Posted January 13, 2009 There's usually at least someone afk or in spec who can be kicked to make room if server is full. even if not, i find i only have to wait about 30 seconds before getting on when its full... kicking players isn't a great way to get them to come back. I'm not member, but that's just my thoughts. Quote
Bennett Talpers Posted January 13, 2009 Posted January 13, 2009 If you kick with a reason of "Server full, sorry, try to reconnect", they are more likely, since they know it was nothing personal or behavioral. Quote

Agree with you Ackmey In my opinion !kick should be used only if: 1-) Hax 2-) Full server, guy is AFK and has been slapped/or pmed several times 3-) Player has been messing with teammates and has been warned. Other than that.... if the person keeps on pming or spaming or being rude.. just mute them ... it usually works ... if it doesnt work.. mute a couple more times ... if not .. Kick... Quote
Administrators daredevil Posted January 13, 2009 Administrators Posted January 13, 2009 Ive been to our server numerous times and get the server full message and i think it would be a good idea to kick the least important person to make room for members. This is just a suggestion but one ive seen work great in the past, being a member should always have its rewards. I would like to give similar kind of example: If you are member of parliament that doesn't mean you have more right's then citizen. My suggestion: 1. Ask to anyone on vent or xfire to kick afk since out of 32 players their are always afk in spawn place and when game has reached half of the map. Thats why we have general open xfire clan. http://www.xfire.com/clans/fearlessassassins/ 2. Feel free to visit ETPUB. If i am not wrong its never full atm. 3. I could turn on private slot and increase it like 32 + password protected slots. For those who never want to wait or don't want to care if server is full or not, can just donate 20$/year and get private slot access. If you normally go to watch movie for "fun" you pay 10$ just for 1 movie.. and since this game is for free you dont have to pay for it like COD4 and WOW to play it but servers are not at all free. We pay more then 600$/year each month to keep all running smooth and get as much as new things possible on server. If anyone can afford 10$ for a movie once a month i am sure they can afford 20$/year to get non stop fun when they want with their private slot on server. Any member/server regular can donate it here and PM me and I will increase +1 private slot for them from next month. http://www.fearless-assassins.com/index.php/donations If we start kicking non afk players saying member want to play then it's not fair as far as my opinion is concerned.

Connection Posted January 14, 2009 Posted January 14, 2009 Ive been to our server numerous times and get the server full message and i think it would be a good idea to kick the least important person to make room for members. i don't think it's a good idea to be making decisions about who the "least important person" is :shock: but if you have to kick to make room on the server, you should start with spectators or ppl who have been afk for 5-10 minutes or more, but warn them through chat or PM first to give them a chance to join up. "hey dude server is full please join game or we will have to boot you off to make room for ppl who are here to play" etc etc or "if you are not playing either go spec or log off dude server is full" etc etc i think daredevil's suggestion is the best one though -- i like etpub better anyway and the pub server is back online and waiting for ppl to go enjoy it. not nearly as crowded.

PINKCAPS Posted January 14, 2009 Posted January 14, 2009 Fred kicked a friend of mine by accident to let a member on one time, the server was full and my friend was unable to connect for about 5 minutes. Fred was nice enough to disconnect himself and let my buddy get into the server, just thought I'd share. Quote
Childsplay Posted January 14, 2009 Author Posted January 14, 2009 That was what i meant by "least important person" was spec people Quote
F257 Posted January 14, 2009 Posted January 14, 2009 That was what i meant by "least important person" was spec people unless they were admins speccing a suspected hakker Quote

Fred was nice enough to disconnect himself and let my buddy get into the server, just thought I'd share. I've accidentally done something like that. The guys name was like 2 hesr I don't remember is name, just that it had a number in front of it. So, he was AFK. I did !kick 2 hesr sorry dude server is full =(. And, it kicked a dif person. I then looked back and I realized that it kicked the players 2. :oops: so i just kicked the real guy who was afk and thats it. Quote

A mistake is only considered as mistake if you keep repeating it btw we have increased slots to see how it goes. So, far I havent noticed any lag. Other then that suggestionsa re always welcome!
