So, this is the third day in a row I had to ask an admin to come in and take care of something because like 8 members of one team were sitting in spawn congaing or spamming taunts for like 30 minutes.

I was wondering if it's possible to make us able to report that type of thing without needing the necessary votes to pass it along? The ones who aren't doing it don't care to type /report unless it's a hacker or something, and the ones that are doing it obviously aren't going to report themselves.

This happens a lot on hightower and I'm sure on other servers, it would be nice to be able to report it in game quickly to stop it.
 
This suggestion has been closed. Votes are no longer accepted.
You gotta open up the HL stats on that server when you see crap like this and you got all their names and AccountID's there. So you don't lose track of them, then you can punch all the violators into a giant
report. And of course provide a demo.
 

The issue is that after the fact all that happens is I can get them banned which I'd rather not do since they're just dicking around. It would just be nice to be able to get an admin to come in and break it up before it gets to that point.

I'm also aware of adding some admins, but I still hate to do it because it seems like a bother to them like the only reason I want them on my friends list is to summon them when there are problems. But I suppose people are right and this isn't really needed.
 
You asked for a way to make a report without passing votes. I just gave you the way, and now you don't like reports?

I don't want to have a long protracted argument over this. Was simply an idea I had and asked if the report function could work for this specific instance without needing more to pass the votes. I just reported someone via this method last night, and I have no issue using it. I'm not that ardent about it that I want to fight for it's inclusion, so I'm just going to stop at this point.
 
What I am saying is making a report on the forums and requiring less people to say yes to make an automated report on the forum gets you the same result.
 
From my understanding your argument is???? I am heavily confused at what you are asking, even after reading this back

Most of us have a lot of people on our friends list who keep us added specifically for player reports, most of us don't mind and we encourage players to add admins in case they need one in a server.

You can add me if you want. I don't mind taking care of reports and I've been banning friendlies only as a last resort if they don't knock it off after they receive a kick or warning
 
What if the option was made so that a donor could pass a report without it needing to be voted on?
