Title: To AH Developers
Post by: Warhwk on October 05, 2004, 07:52:45 PM
Hi, I host a lot in H2H and would like to suggest that a ban command be implemented as well as some form of password protection for H2H servers. The ban command would be helpful in making sure that people who consistantly cause problems on a server are not allowed back on that server where people who can follow rules like to fly.

Thanks,
Warhwk

If I'm right, I think there IS a password option when hosting (?)

But a ban file would be nice. Like a MOTD, only nobody sees it and it prevents those players from joining.

It also might be easier for hosts if we had a "right click -> eject" menu for players shown in the roster. A *lot* of disruptive players substitute letters and numbers and sometimes it can be hard as hell to type out names for 10 minutes trying to get it right.

A simple click and click would do wonders for efficiency.

There isn't a password/perma ban feature, in that sense.

But, you can setup your router/firewall to only accept connections you tell it too.

Good idea.. like right click their namei te roster, menu pops up, MUTE, EJECT, BAN, and an option to unban as well.. people do repent sometimes. that would be nice.

Mute time works for both mute, and kicks.  Set the mute to an insane value, then punt'em out.
