    no no no, on top of this he was a script kiddy in general, spammed SO MUCH that regular chat was impossible (we're talking screenfulls in under a second) AND crashed the server over and over from overflows

    If it was as simple as you said then i would have bothered...

    Heh, PeePeeBoy? I've actually seen him before.

    He's a dedicated griefer, and proud of it. While trying to command on NS_Caged, the idiot blared this incredibly lame and annoying song using voice com. It got so bad that I had to give my marines the console command for disabling voice-com so that they could concentrate on killing the aliens. The song was just played OVER and OVER. He also destroyed our player spawns.

    Any more testimony against him, and I would suggest a client-side ban.

    I say do what they do in SvenCoop, hard code his WON into the game, or make a master ban list that interacts with the server NS.

    Yeah, I think I was there at the same time as you 404.

    How do we report abuse like this? Basically he spammed chat with the messages shown in 404's post, spammed voice com with some annoying music, and just jumped around. He crashed the server consistently as well. When I'd eventually reconnect, everyone would be in the ready room and he'd be hopping around blaring his **obscenity** music.

    Just wanted to back 404 up in saying that this guy is lame, and needs to be banned, and that this type of abuse needs to be prevented, especially if it becomes common. This is only the first time that I've seen someone do this in NS, and I hope it's the last.

    look guys, sorry to say this but griefers are unavoidable

    you can feel free to perma ban his WON ID and his name from every serv in existance, he will be back in about 3 seconds after he runs his proggie that changes his WON ID

    the solution to this is give up the game as lost and leave, just got to another server

    don't give him the satisfaction of ruining the game thats all

    Oh no. So you were stupid enough not to mute him. And he can't overload the server with text because servers have things to protect against that.

    oy node, be nice

    first up you can't mute ppl in NS (unles you turn voice comm off) and you also CAN'T mute text chat, so be nice, some one just had a bad day and needed to rant

    I posted this guy in the Server Operators forum a couple days ago. He even crashed the server multiple times for us too while playing that initially humorous music (was funny during the first skulk rush).

    All im' saying is that something such as an auto kick if say... 10 lines of text are spammed in a few seconds, simple things like that will do.

    Yes, these are unavoidable, but i'm trying to point out the preventable stuff such as makign the server crash and booting people out with text flood.

    Once admins start using things like admin-mod, anti-spam kicking will be common.
    Once the dev team fixes it, you'll be able to mute players who abuse voice-comm.

    OMG! I played with this guy a few days ago. He was playing as a marine and totally demolishing every structure that his team built. It didn't even make me feel better to switch teams and munch his behind over and over again as a skulk. I just felt sorry for his teammates.

    It is so frustrating that one person can so easily ruin the fun for others on a server. Is there no way to build in a vote_kick option for expelling such players?

    The worst is when they vote Commander after Commander out of the chair and your team never makes it anywhere because of the disruption. The aliens seem to be immune to that particular sort of disruption but the chat spamming and Voice Comm spamming is utterly annoying. At least Counter-Strike implemented a mute player option. That would be quite helpful in that sort of situation.

    I simply can't get mute to work from the Multiplayer Scoreboard overlay like it works for me in CS... I have tried on multiple occassions with no success. Have you been able to verify that muting still works in your copy of NS? Just curious now...

    Thanks

    Commander should be able to kill his marines. Also I feel that structures should take damage, but if a lamer does X ammount of damage in Y ammount of time then turrets fire.

    They fixed FF fire damaging buildings in the 1.02 patch, last I checked? Once that circulates FF laming shouldn't happen anymore.

    Instead of a "vote_ban", how about:
    "ingore_player" and a "vote_start_in_enamy_base_with_no_weapons".

    Heh, I just noticed yesterday that pee pee's avatar had "suspended" underneath it. Don't post about lamers here, people. Go to the server website. It's the server's fault, not the mod's.

    EDIT: Looks like he's been moved to "banned". <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->

    I have also seen sound spamming in NS. I am not talking about voice comm spam this was some one that was playing all of the sound form half-life in a NS game... any way I thought that I would just throw that out here.

    Heh, the annoying music is scripted. Just turn voice chat off. Aside from that, I played with him just recently, and he is a pain in the **obscenity**. There should be a 'vote smite' command that allows other players to 1) Kickban him and 2) Have the server DoS his measly connection.
