Okay, I really don't see the problem. Even currently Admins don't have a limit to the reserved slots of a server. All it is is that an admin can join a full server no matter what.

I.E. Say there's 15 regular people and one admin in TTT. If another admin tries to join the servers it will make it 14 regular people and two admins. This would continue.


Hence, there can be no slot wars....because admins can get in the server no matter what..

I may be wrong somehow, but when admins join a random person in the server gets kicked if the server is full, so it doesn't matter?

What?
So you think that it's a bad idea, because it's not what it was intended for?
That's just horrible logic...

Coolz made the slots so a admin could always get in the server and also for contest reasons.
People should have to be active and win it in a contest like masters did once, rather than having the privlage come automatically

Waiting for people to bitch

At your service tomcat.

Regardless of how it used to be intended, I haven't seen a single person given a reserved slot for winning a contest while I was here. So while Smasters may have won it a long time ago, that was then. But what you lack to realize is that was before VIP was created. Back in the respected times obviously this would have been a bad idea, with the fact respected was handed out like regular today and it just wouldn't be neccessary. There's only a low number of VIPs, about 15, and I think the arguement you've presented is no reason this shouldn't be taken into action.
