Ban Coolio

Post by Guest » Fri Apr 08, 2005 3:28 pm

We all know who he is and what kind of guy he is. Today i saw him with multiple nicks and he was bullying and being a jackass all the time. He was ruining other peoples playing. I do think that he's not qualified to play this game online. His only goal is to be an idiot.

I know two of his nicknames what he uses and they are [Style]Coolio and MysteryMan. His ip-adress is 85.76.245.121. Please ban him!

I am not sure, if the administrators would ban even 1 player (even when his IP is static).

Coolio is surely a good example. I can imagine that he will kicked or banned on manual servers easily, when he behaves in chat or in race like he does in the demo servers.

If administrators are deciding to ban players from official servers...then i guess, this won't happen so quick anyway. At least, some kind of votes and opinions by some TS drivers will be necessary.

One thing i should add:
If Coolio or anyone else would be banned, then there will follow here and there also other players, what would cause work for the serveradmins in future.
Since i want to minimize their (Ande and or Jani) work, we have to find an easy way to do (time limited) ban requests to serveradmins, i think. - if they will start banning.

What do you think?
I suggest, that IPs have to be found out, if possible and the log.txt should be emailed maybe or given as link from a webspace.
Maybe an emailadress like ts_serveradmins@jollygoodgames.com or some kind of serveradmin support email adress or html formular for those cases should be there maybe.

Example for an html formular:
1) Name
2) Email
3) Request
4) TextField to enter informations like IPs and what the player did.
5) Log.txt to upload

Maybe additional there can be a combobox with a dropdownmenu of selectable reasons to ban a player. Or a checkboxlist better.
Like
x driving backwards
x insulting players
x pushing players
...
In the textfield there would be then mentioned how often and maybe in which situations the player do the bad things...

Some "rules" at the ban-html formular page would be nice to see, if the player CAN have success when emailing. So, in some situations an email won't be necessary, if there was a newbie driving backwards just due to lag or because he is a child playing this game for only one time, for example.

Additional request to Ande and Jani P. would be next to a list of rules, which would be maybe linked as html page and in Macros.ini at CupEnd of each official server:
a list of names of administrators and maybe also some comments, IF drivers (with a license) can become a kind of admin with some rights (the rights would be minimized to some special rules for administrators, which would be official, since also normal players should know them).

Advantage: players (with a license, or not, what you like ;)), which are playing relative often can clean the servers from bad players for example by kicking them by including other players votes maybe and of course telling the kicked players or banned players the html of the rules on the official servers).
And this would mean the advantage, that the most players can drive without backwarddrivers/race ruining players etc.. So, players which would normally stop playing TS would then keep playing it and backwarddrivers would start driving fair and respectful, when they really want to be able to drive at official servers.

Okay, some stuff to talk about ;)
It would be a great pleasure and i think Turbo Sliders would be more liked, when players like [Style]Coolio" or "In a Safe Place" are not anymore playing like they do at the moment.
