    Have you considered making an exception for the commander when it comes to getting kicked for slot reservations?

    Hmm...
    That would make the order of kicking:

    first: Enigma
    second: [No-CD] person
    third: last to join server who is not a member
    fourth: commander

    I think its a good idea.

    If you do this you might as well also check for higher life forms before kicking.

    There is a big difference between losing a fade or onos, and losing the comm. And don't even try to say losing a gorge is like losing the comm.

    When you lose the comm:

    1) no medpacks or ammo dropping - severly hurts all the marine fighting abilities
    2) no structures built or techs researched - the marine strategic advancement automatically stops

    And this stays untill someone new can make it to the chair. And considering how much of a knife's edge the balance between the marines and kharaa are during most games, a game can easily be lost from the comm being booted.

    Have you considered buying a a membership?

    It's been considered before, and rejected. Since I don't recall why, a new discussion might be OK.

    The kick system will not now be changed to protect commanders.

    Darkilla: In short, NS is pretty much really fast chess. With guns. Apophis: I haven't seen anyone say that SM's are better than non-SMs. Nordbomber: This is THE first server I've seen where either side can comeback from out of seemingly nowhere with the right teamwork. en4rcment: I have NEVER experienced the type of gameplay that I have found here. Nightly I am amazed at the personalities and gaming talent. Zephyr: Apophis is clearly a highly sophisticated self-aware AI construct that runs on a highly modified toaster oven in Wyzcrak's basement.

    that reminds me, someone on the server said perhaps we should kick people in the ready room first, then people playing the game. just a thought.
