    Il give you guys my money again and again,just save us from those nolifepeople...
    Really,every server miss an admin!
    Why do people who play all the time,and they do play,cant do anything,and some "great" players who have rcon pass,they play here and there...
    Why do you hosts restrict yourself only to your teammates?Or clan members?
    When i get more resources for [HA] server,trust me,it will not be HA admins only!

    A new round of bans based on this evidence.

    If everyone could yell at Poe to make him work faster on requiring email activation and unique emails for each account that'd be great ;)

    Haiter is right though, server owners would be wise to give various trusted users their rcon passwords - moderation is the ultimate solution to griefing.

    I fully understand how it WILL limit griefing, Geti, but RIGHT NOW it's spending 9 dollars on a game I cannot play. For the record, it's 3x more in Poland - a 'day' of work in my part time job and I've got bills to pay. ;) Not to mention the feeling I'll get when kicked by beaver after paying. I hope you understand, I'm not going there.

    lol u killed me twice a row, and its an abusing. this thread helps to ban such abusive players like you, so i made my post here.
    if you can ban people such goodie or Darth Vader for such things like just writing in chat about griefing, why there is could be an exception for you ? you griefed me thats all. and stop swearing on me please.
    i hope that admins are fair here and will make no exception for you
    PS i go to cap all the time, stop lying... moreover you killed me twice. u were builder so u can make me ladders instead.

    Let's just ignore that, please. No one's gonna ban you on their word, Loki. Turn off your emotions, they give beaver a boner. Or perhaps just what he was probably never given - attention.

    Loki, just stop playing for a bit, play on less public servers. Griefers can't possibly piss you off if you're not there to be pissed off. It's just a game remember, and he clearly has absolutely nothing better to do with his time, while you can do something else.

    @Loki: premium users will be spared griefing. There's no way of stopping griefing with code because it's deliberate abuse of otherwise legitimate mechanics - if you nerf the mechanics then no-one's happy. The only way to counter them is through moderation and banning. The only way for someone to grief for any long period of time on gold servers would be to buy many accounts, as we'll perma-ban anyone with griefing evidence against them.

    Accounts need to be made a little more time consuming to get for standard users as well, and I think they should require a unique email address. That way normal users don't experience much any extra hassle, but multi-accounters (hackers and griefers) have to make temporary email addresses to activate the accounts.

    IP bans don't work as IP addresses can be spoofed.
    HardwareID/MAC bans are an invasion of privacy and don't work because MAC addresses etc can be spoofed.

    The only way to stop them is to either have people sitting around able to kick them in a flash (SERVER OWNERS GIVE TRUSTED USERS YOUR GODDAMN RCON PASSWORD) or make them incur loss by griefing (through banning their premium account).

    As frustrating as it is, that's the truth.

    Besides you're being the latest spambot on our forum, Loki, that's actually an interesting idea. Although we all want that votekicking feature removed this could be a quick workaround if it's easy to do.

    Because it would still be possible for these assholes to make 50 new accounts in one day and wait for the three days to elapse, and then when the timer is elapsed, show up and kick 50 people or more people on the fourth day. >.<
