Just Some Suggestions for Skial's Trade Servers

[Vincenzo]

Welp, since I moved in to the Skial Trade NY server, I have noticed some things that, if changed, could make Skial trade serves better.


1) Do not allow f2p's to come onto the trade servers. They usually spam the chat trying to buy keys for their dirty pain trains (true story) and run around killing friendlies as a gibus/ provision goggle rage heavy or pyro. They really have nothing to contribute and are usually annoying to have around.

2) Have a friendly mode (!friendly), where you cannot kill or be killed. Many people want to be friendly but end up getting killed by some noob who comes to the server for the sole purpose of leveling up their stranges.

3) Make a rule that you cannot randomly trade people. I understand you can just ignore the trade, but it gets annoying when people keep randomly trading you over and over.

4) Bring back the pan although make it against the rules to spam with it. I see so many people who are new to the server saying in chat things like "wow, the pan is banned here :'(", etc. It can be used without being annoying.

5) Do not allow people with private backpack's onto the trade servers. I have noticed that, 99% of the time, people with private backpack's are normally scammers. They also tend to be the people who ask to spycrab in chat and then run when they lose or have fake raffles.

As for now, that's about all the suggestions I have. Thanks for taking this into consideration.

Make a report in the reports section so an admin will easily see and handle. Most admins might not be watching this thread.

Yeah, I vote reported it from the server, the report can be found here.

 

[Deadfront]

Yeah, I am a report from the server which can be found here.

Looks like one of the admins is checking it out. Another thing is some people add admins on steam to contact when trouble arises.

Will it be fixed? I'm just wondering.

You will have to ask the person who made the plugin. The plugin is a hack of undocumented private functionality and I don't have time to fix something like that. It could literally take 50+ hours.

I like the idea of #2, but it seems like you can exploit it by turning it on, running behind enemy lines, turn it off, and hose down players from behind. And if you take too much dmg, just bind !friendly on to protect yourself.

I've seen it on a server, you respawn when you use it.

I've seen it on custom servers too, it's a godmode that lets you shoot, but not die. You use it to kill spawn campers (mostly on surfing servers) and only lasts about 5 seconds.

Are you saying it's like a timed shield from when you spawn?

He's saying you get godmode when you respawn, and when you shoot or try an attack, you'll respawn without godmode.

Ohhhhhhhh, I don't see what's wrong with that.
+1 to #2

if it kills you when you enable it, rather than denying a kill, I'll +1 it
regarding #3: there is a 30 second waiting period between unsuccessful trade requests.
regarding #4: IMHO, blacklisting the Pan is not enough. the Machina should be blacklisted too for this reason:
*CAVEAT: MUTE YOUR SYSTEM BEFORE VIEWING*

*CAVEAT: MUTE YOUR SYSTEM BEFORE VIEWING*

That's if there's someone able to convince everyone to do it, knowing people from there, hard to believe they'll organize something so big. So the machina wouldn't really be a big issue.

true, but even killing only 4 people in one shot is too loud

when someone is suggestion for godmode for friendly, shows they cannot even set a party where people don't shoot each other.

Isn't there a plug-in that kicks F2Ps if the server is full and a premium is trying to join?

That's what it was.
