You're right. A one hour ban is so much more efficient than a paperwork trail.

Look.

I know you feel like nothing good will come of it.

I can't change your opinion.
I really can't, and I know better.
But these are the avenues you can take, and they are the options you have.
We will not be promoting more people to VIP unless they deserve to be promoted, and I can certainly tell you that the attitude taken by most of the regs that reporting is a waste of time is not a good mindset to be in. Regs must also follow the rules they claim to know, or they will suffer the standard punishment + a demotion.


At any rate.

Think what you will.

What do I know.

Totally haven't played much TTT.

The kick/ban for when it is happening at least causes a better environment so players aren't annoyed and it doesn't ruin their fun.

I didn't say reporting is useless. I am just saying, it just doesn't address the problem that is occurring at that present time, only for the future.

What should we do if someone is RDMing after we report them? Just deal with it?

 It really is annoying when shit on the server happens, and nothing is done about it. It's more of a problem nowadays a well, because the karma system sadly isn't as harsh ever since the update, so when people RDM it doesn't hurt their karma to much unless it's massive RDM.

I like you Deacon, you are a cool dude. I just wanna say that right now so I'm not looking like a complete ass while trying to make a point.

Yes, but we cannot have enough people to be there at every second. And do you ask for help when you need it? Message one of us, or an admin?

Which is still better than ignoring it altogether. Which, I may add, shows that we are lax on rules and people think they can get away with more. And they are right, because there are less reports out now that there are worse players.

I would say gather your evidence and call a VIP/Admin at the same time. If no one answers you, then yes. That is your only option.

Agreed.

Thank you, I guess. And you just need to form coherent arguments and think about what you mean, otherwise it will look like you're an ass, which I might add, I never said or implied.

You gotta admit that it isn't the brand new players who fuck up the game... it is the percentage of trolls and smartasses that come with the new players.

Also, i do believe the rank system takes that much time for people to get VIP because it takes a lot of time to see not only if a player is active or not, but also his way of reasoning and reacting against any problem that can pop up.

this is a general question... is sourcebans down or something like that stuf because there are 3 reports i made on the exact same rule being broken and i belive some of those guy are still causing problem nowadays

Alright, I'll be sure to do that more, though often times people are busy/not on.

While I guess it is better then nothing it doesn't solve the problem when it needs solving. But hey, I'll start reporting more I guess. I just hope you guys are ready to come on a lot ;)

"If no one answers you, then yes. That is your only option." Kinda shitty deal :/

Well, I just wanted to make sure it didn't look like I was attacking you or anything. I like all the regulars on the server. Though I do have a few problems what some people do, but that is a completely different topic, and better to not be discussed really, as I don't want to cause shit lol. ( though I guess this thread in a sense caused shit and I didn't mean too )

I will agree that some do that. However I think it mostly comes from the new guys and new guys who are trying to troll.

"Also, i do believe the rank system takes that much time for people to get VIP because it takes a lot of time to see not only if a player is active or not, but also his way of reasoning and reacting against any problem that can pop up."

Regarding VIP I gotta say it kinda sucks how hard it is to get. I tried to get it a month or so ago when everything was awful and literally no VIPs were every on, but I had very few vouches, because no VIPs knew me, but I don't see how that it was my fault when they never came on.

I personally think regulars should get some say in the matter of people becoming VIPs.

I'm subbed to them lol. It's Rooster Teeth, they are quite famous on youtube. (They've got like 1 mill subs? I think)

If you mean the video itself I just clicked on it because it went into my sub box and watched it until the end and saw the TTT thing and decided to come here and bitch about it. lmao

You know, admins can deal with problems without even going in-game, right?

I get contacted by plenty of people in-game all the time. They send me a few screenshots, and within minutes, the situation is handled.

I can certainly say you've never done that though.

My suggestion is just simply to get more VIPS. We only have about 4 active TTT VIPs.(Alkaline, Juan, Foofoojack and Lazer) I wanna say 1/2 of the time there is no VIP on at all.
I would definitely get on more then just on weekends if the servers wouldn't go up at 10pm at my local time.


Also keep in mind that some of those rdmers might keep coming back later with different names.

I am really starting to like the way one TTT server I play on [but can't now since it won't be back up until their admin fixes it, when gmod 13 comes out]:

Guests: Can start votes, vote in - long cooldown period between votes to start
Respected: [like Regular] - same
Moderator: [like VIP] - much shorter cooldown, if any at all, can also directly kick or ban
Admin: - everything and more.

Tweak that to the system servers like rNd, Nexus, etc use, that could be something like:

Guests: can vote only
Regular: Can vote, and start votes only; cooldown period between votes [rest of round?  5 minutes? 10 minutes? 15 minutes?]
VIPs: Unchanged
Admins: Unchanged.

I mean, sure we are very used to the current system, but in my opinion this simple change can help a lot.   It would let the regulars, who are on a hell of a lot more than VIPs it seems have some ability - albiet limited - to handle problem players. [and lets face it, for regulars  I bet some of us feel pretty goddammed useless if there is a problem player and we can only vote on a nonexistent vote - since the one(s) who can start votes aren't on]  That way we don't have to worry so much about getting VIPs on, or admins on, or the case of some guy RDMing, and leaving before a VIP or admin gets on... or the case of some guy going on, rdming, and leaving just as people start realizing what is happening/go to get proof.

Just an idea.

This would pretty much bring the same problems when there were a respected system. Retarded votekicks/bans + retarded guest votes.
Also giving such power to regs an not giving any more power to VIPs would be illogical since then there wouldn't be much of a difference between those ranks considering how it takes to get those ranks, however I wouldn't mind if that power would be temporarily given to regs to see how it goes, but I'm absolutely against giving the vote power to guests.

oh god...

old respected system ...

getting banned, reason: "I WANTED TO RDM MOO YOU FKER"

also i remember once something broke and you wouldn't get kicked of the server, but it would register the ban, so when the map changed or you tried to join again, you would alredy be banned and couldn't join until the ban expired... i had only 1 hour to play that day and still got randomly banned because "IT DOSN'T BAN YOU, DON'T GET MAD HURR"


Looking at the regular board, and people saying "He T baits sometimes but is a good guy, +1", i'm not really sure if doing that would be a good idea.
