There are 3 micspammers in a server, at once, and two people discussing the game. (E.G. Talking strat for dustbowl last). How do you separate the 3 who are micspamming, and what do you do?
 
+1 he got considering fast because he had that last time. BTW, I love you Meow.

Normally if there's one guy spamming and someone (or some people) who are talking over the spammer I would simply keep an eye on the microphone list to determine who's who. Mic spammers usually continually spam while players who are legitimately talking talk in short intervals. So if I were to join a server, saw someone mic spamming and there's a player talking over him at the same time I would simply wait for the player to stop talking. Once he stops talking his name would disappear off the list leaving only the mic spammer's name on the list. This would tell me the mic spammer's name as well as the name of the player who was legitimately talking.

In the case of 3 mic spammers and 2 players legitimately talking on the microphone at the same time, the same tactic listed above could work even in this case. However, if I have any form of uncertainty about who's who due to the amount of mic users all at once then I can simply use my client mute to figure out who's who. For example if I client mute one of the 5 mic users and hear some mic spamming stop then It's clear I just client muted one of the 3 mic spammers which tells me easily who is spamming and who isn't.

After I determined who is who I could simply silence the 3 mic spammers for the appropriate amount of time (which depends on how many offenses they have, if any). I would prefer to warn them ahead of time to stop but if they don't then I would silence them.

edit - had to fix a typo

Are you going to randomly stop playing TF2 again? We like long term admins that are active. That doesn't fit you if you keep getting sick of TF2.
So my question is, are you actually here to stay or is this a few month tf2 fling?

I'm here to stay. My problem was I didn't have anything else at the time that I enjoyed playing, I only had TF2 so I played the living daylights out of it. I played it so much I burnt myself out on it badly.

After taking a break for awhile I'm definitely enjoying it again, but I don't allow myself to binge play it now days. I have other games I play and enjoy along with TF2 so I'll like likely be playing TF2 for quite awhile. Maybe not my original 7 hours a day of TF2 playtime but I'll certainly be on it

everyone +1'd and this app got into considering within the first 30 minutes.
meow is OP
He had a previous app that was in considering but he retracted it due to him not playing TF2 much. Now he is playing in doses instead of playing nonstop. Honestly, even with the Hiatus, Meow should make a great admin if added
