AFK'ers and Spectator's!
Ok I made this thread to just point out a couple of things to the masses because we are getting alot of complaints about AFK'ers and Spectator's recently. Now I know this is a problem however we need your help aswell.
- The warning;
If you are going absent for a long period of time (two/three rounds) it would be jolly polite of you to just to drop off the server, if your an SM you'll be back on in a few mins any way because of your all acess priviledge card, if your not an SM then cough up the penny's.
- What you can do;
You guys who are reporting the AFK'ers and Spectator's to us thank you very much it does not go unnoticed, however we need steam ID's from you guys as well, then we can kick them without having to come onto the actural server, this methods means us joining and in the process kicking a player who is playing lol, so please grab their steam ID's. (remember to gather steam ID's type 'status' in console).
- What we will do;
The admin team is looking into the problem guys and we will be trying to find a solution that will best suit the server. If you have solutions that you have seen used effectively post your ideas in the correct forum (Counter-Strike Source Development Group forum).
- What not to do;
Please do not turn this thread into a place to post up your rants about the system or those who go AFK there are forums you can do that, this is not the place. This post is primarily to tell you all that the problem is not going unnoticed.

Re: AFK'ers and Spectator's!
Good.
Is it possible to have some sort of spectator time out? Or, if you're spec and the map changes, you're disconnected? That way if no admins are around, worst case scenario an AFK'er is there only until the map ends.ORGANBiTER | $_COOKIE['monster'] | UBiQ

Re: AFK'ers and Spectator's!
So, do we report them in the 'Contact an Admin' forum?

yes. Originally Posted by Kulmar

Another side note, when you have afk's you can use your reserved slot to kick them by leaving the server and allowing it to fill up with someone who isn't, rejoin and it will kick spectators first.

That is not always true. I have seen people join while there was a non sm in spectator and it kicks someone who is in the middle of playing. Originally Posted by Vulcan

Re: AFK'ers and Spectator's!
add steam ID. Got it. Thanks for the heads up.
I also agree with the time out rule. since the rounds can be long though maybe the ma switch or a longer time limit would be better.
