I don't ever recall talking about how I choose to play music, If I remember right I was more commenting on If other people are playing music.

I actually agree with you.

But, however irritating it is, It's a part of playing video games online.
In the end, I don't really understand where the time is saved by banning someone. It takes just as long to ban someone, as it does to mute them. If it truly bugs you so much, go make/search for a script for yourself that allows you to permanently mute someone on your side of things.


But, I'll make our stance clear on this.
-We have discussed this problem numerous times
-We will not be allowing people to vote kick for mic spam
-We did not make this decision on a whim, It was made after not regulating if people vote-kicked/banned people for mic spamming.
-It had turned into some sort of gateway drug, luring people into wanting to ban people for more, and more minor infractions
-There was a never ending stream of "OMG YOU ARE SO ANNOYING STOP SPEAKING OR ILL BAN YOU" to way too many people than was necessary.



I'm not trying to destroy your discussion, one of the reasons these forums were made after all; was so you guys could give us feedback about issues and suggestions for the severs.

However, I am tired of the discussion about this matter, so I felt it necessary to make this point clear before you guys began pm'ing us going "OMG LOOK AT ALL THE VOTES JOO HAS TO DO DIS!"



But yes mic spam is annoying and I hate it just as much as you all if not more. So until someone can create an auto-mated irratato-meter, to automatically detect when someone is irritating, this is how its going to remain.

Hitman:
Just a question, are we allowed to kick people that play ear-raping sounds intentionally?

Tharr be thy exception to the rule, but if the dude's mic is just messed up that doesn't count as an intentional-ear rape automatically. If everyone is sitting there yelling at him that his mic is broken but he still persists go ahead and boot his ass. (That's a boot remember now, not the Hammer.)

Cake Faice:
But Xrain, here's the thing though. If we dont want people kicking for mic-spam, then can we at-least consider having coolz add a votemute command at-least? Heres my theory though, usually when people mic spam and you just mute them without a word...Then dont learn they're lesson really. And thus they keep mic spamming time after time. Muting manually takes just the amount of time as typing in votemute and select the person's name. Then afterwards, the person would be muted for 5 or 10 minutes. If they keep spamming after then, then you'd have to consider a kick.

Waffle:
Votemute idea is a good one, but it should last the rest of the map.
