Ban Players

<div class="IPBDescription">Banning players</div>We've all played a game where trolls and loud mouth people ruin the game for a team, yes it is easy to eject, and it is easy to mute players. However what happens when a player is verbally harassing others for fun, and ruining the environment for all players involved? Am I over reacting on this particular player? Do we need a vote ban system?

Thanks for replies!

    Banning is one of the utmost punishments you can give, so if it were added it would need a rather large vote, maybe 70% yes to ban.
    But nonetheless I'm a little uneasy about it.

    I'd rather not see banning be up to players, instead server admins need to make the call.

    This seems a little more sound, perhaps an admin can initiate the vote and the players can vote on it.

    It seems sound. I would indeed vote only if I felt someone was bothering me or the team. On the other hand a system like that does not allow for elite players to ban noobs. What about UWE servers (and other servers) that don't have admins?

    Good point, Admins do need to be taking iniative on servers. Now about Unknown World Servers with no admins? Either way a step at a time is the right direction, get admin tools to help rock the vote to kick.
