/kick and /tempban for donator+.
Hello everyone , I`ve noticed a huge spike in the amount of spammers on the server recently and I heard Rardical was given special permissions to /kick and /tempban for use against spammers. So my request is that certain trustworthy and longtime donators be given these commands to help keep the server spam free. These people would be hand picked by the staff and Orcworm. The condition obviously would be that the selected individuals would not be be authaurised to ban griefers (as to not interfere with the duties of the staff). So comment, vote and let me know what you guys think. Thank you.

I voted 'no' because this shouldn't be something people would need to donate for.
"Hey, I'm going to donate 255558484545$ so I can kick and tempban! Wooohooo!!!!"
No. Just, no.
Some people have been entrusted with commands such as /kick and /tempban, but they are people who have been watched and deemed responsible enough to have those commands.
So, no. Just no.
If every donator could have those commands, the whole server would turn into 8-bit.

I agree, it should be given due to the person being reliable and not a dick, not how wealthy they or their parents are.

Re: /kick and /tempban for donator+.
I did say hand picked by the staff Krellyn and having one person with these commands isn't going to change very much. It wouldn't be something you donate for. People who have been here a considerably long time and are known and trusted by the staff would be candidates.

Re: /kick and /tempban for donator+.
Well they're doing that already (e.g. - Rardical) so there's no point in making it "official". It'll just result in all the donators subtly trying to obtain said powers and/or ramming their heads incredibly far up their own asses in an effort to be "staff-like" to obtain said powers.

Re: /kick and /tempban for donator+.
Actually badhatter Rardical noticed the constant amount of spam and requested Orcworm for the commands. And instead of simply disagreeing with me, lets wait and see what the staff have to say. I want to know what they think of this. People are not going to start randomly kissing ass just to obtain the commands.thebadhatter wrote:Well they're doing that already (e.g. - Rardical) so there's no point in making it "official".

Re: /kick and /tempban for donator+.
Whilst I was going through the serverlog, I noticed when they spam, it all comes out in the same split second, after that, they're muted for 30 seconds and they usually leave within that time.
We've enough active staff/Rardical etc to ban them too

Hmm, its hard to say yes or no. But if orc really thinks spammers are a big problem he will just staff more people.

And they found him reliable.
About 4-6 months back, I asked Orc for /kick for these very same reasons. It was given to me, and I used it as it should have been used.
You don't need to have all donators have commands, dude.
If they didn't think Rardical was reliable enough, he wouldn't have jack shit.

Re: /kick and /tempban for donator+.
Really its not for any kind of personnal gain, its to help keep the server spam free. There would be ALOT of restrictions to the use of the commands, 1. The selected few would only be able to /tempban and/or /kick when there are no staff members online, 2. Those who abuse the commands (e.i /kick or /tempban other players who have not spammed just for fun) would have their rights revoked. It's not to make you feel important over someone else, its to help maintain the server when a staff member isn't there to answer the call.Ryoman wrote:Hello everyone , I`ve noticed a huge spike in the amount of spammers on the server recently and I heard Rardical was given special permissions to /kick and /tempban for use against spammers.

I would be ok if it was just /kick powers and a select few of us donators. /tempban might be a little to much power for most.

Re: /kick and /tempban for donator+.
What`s the use of repetedly /kicking a spammer? They will just log in again, kicking is mostly to give people a warning that they are doing something wrong, and if they dont comply the usual option is /tempban or /ban.

That's a good point, mabey if it's possible limit the amount of bans that someone can do to like 2 a day.

Re: /kick and /tempban for donator+.
I too see what Ryoman is trying to get at. I voted yes but I would make some changes to what he said originally. Yes the ammount of spammers on this server has risen dramatically but the activity of the staff is still very high. Whenever a spammer show's there face on the server a member of staff is bound to be on or maybe Rardicle. I would say give /kick and /temp ban to the most active players that also are mature enough to use it properly as in spam, racism and other tipes of abuse.
Also people that are active on the chaos server.

LOL, I say continue with what Orc is doing now. Select donators get it. We don't need MORE stuff for donators to get a big head over, with all the Member/Guest taunting/teasing.

i vote no, i believe this will just result to huge arguments and some selected ppl maybe abusing /kick just when someone says maybe 1 word in caps or some crap or just doing it on random new guests for fun

Hopefully those select few we choose will be as mature as we think they are. If not, they will no longer have those commands, simple as that.

I'm sure they will, as I haven't seen orc ever choose a bad staff member. Except Lizzy that is.

Re: /kick and /tempban for donator+.
Ryo I see where you're coming from. And I do see that it is only hand picked people, but that's the problem. I have been here from near enough the beginning of the server and I will admit, if someone that has only been on for about half as long as me and is given commands because they can be trusted. Well I'm not gonna lie, I would be a bit offended. Also just because they have been "good" for that span of time doesn't mean they will use their powers responsibly. Take Lizardman for example, he was a "good boy" for a while, but once he got given some power he abused it. It will cause some people to rage and push hatred towards the chosen player. So I think it should be staff for now.

Re: /kick and /tempban for donator+.
You have a good point Xephos, Lizzy was a "good boy" and I think I would be offended too in that case. You give one person a piece of cake and everyone else wants one too, and if they don't get it they rage. I personally wouldn't mind if I don't be chosen, as long as those who do get chosen (If any) do a good job, then I'm happy.darkxephos wrote:Ryo I see where you're coming from.

Yeah, but some people can't hold back that rage. Which is rather unfortunate, I personaly wouldn't rage, but I'd be a little bit offended inside.

The_Music_Man has left the game.
See why that won't work?
The only problem people wil have with that is deciding which two people they hate the most.
Maybe a voteban/votekick plugin instead?

Re: /kick and /tempban for donator+.
No way, and this is a stupid thread to have a vote for, Do you think that it is kinda biased to ask people if they want kick and tempban? Who wouldn't say yes? I don't really see a need for it, all it does is cause problems and if you pick special people to do it, then people will either get pissed and/or jealous. If we want someone who can temp ban and kick might as well bring moderators back.

Re: /kick and /tempban for donator+.
Firstly, when has this not been a problem. Guests are generally jealous of Members+. Members are generally jealous of donators+. Donators are generally jealous of Staff+.Jarvisd wrote:No way, and this is a stupid thread to have a vote for, Do you think that it is kinda biased to ask people if they want kick and tempban?

Secondly, thats not a bad idea imo.

Wrong.
IMO, this should not be a poll. It is not up to us to make this decision. Orc will not give commands to people just because there was a poll on it.

The poll is just for referance, obviously even if more people say yes that doesnt mean he will do it. Spam on the server is becoming a problem Rard and even if donators dont get these permissions we still need another solution.

Guests = Jelly of Members = Jelly of Donators = Jelly of Staff = Jelly of Orcworm = Jelly of....Notch?
Jealousy isn't really an issue here, As this highly accurate chart shows, people are jelly of each other anyway. The morale would be that either your chosen or not and if you aren't then deal with it. But if you really feel that your up to the task and feel offended that you are a long time player and weren't chosen then PM orc. Problem solved :/

Please don't post things that will induce a lot of spam in Orc's mailbox - especially when there is no confirmation that this proposed idea will go ahead.
