!afk - command

[Phanty]

guys, the headadmin team discussed this issue so often, and the result was and has always been that we will not setup an afk kicker or spec kicker

first, what phanty says is correct, the kick spec issue the spa and HA have full control over. no point in discussing that one. if they change their mind, they will tell us.

OR.. you can type "afk" to show other players that you are afk, or you go into a corner and turn around to show that you are afk. no need for this bs, wouldnt help in any way.

you keep missing the point mate, its to avoid doing that it would be nice with something visible, and only admins read the chat all the time while playing.

also afk fakers would use it to show that they are afk, and when you come near they kill you. also you as admin can go in spec when you have to do something.

as i have said earlier, i dont know if im away for 10 sec or 10 min sometimes, so i dont wanna go in spec and miss out. and the afk faking is easily more traceable if people keep typing !afk, then killing people. the afk faking itself will never leave nomath3r what

that takes like 5 seconds..

as i have said, its turning my back its what i have been doing and want to avoid. my reason for making this thread was to see if there was another way of visibly showing that you are afk at the moment. something more noticeable. the !afk -command just seemed like a good option

On v1 its often necessary to kick spectators when the server is 64/64. Why should we keep for example 5 spectating players who are probably afk when there are about 5 players at the same time trying to join the server? Unless the server isn't 64/64, it's truly a no go but when it's full I don't see any problem with kicking spectators. AFAIK advaldo said ok to this

And to your idea dw : imo its not necessary, it's a nice idea though but just not needed

 

[WolfRam]

it's a nice idea though but just not needed

yeah.. :/

 

[Boubble]

It's a cool idea, very good thinking!
But such function is not needed.

I think this is useless as well. No reason to type /Afk to let others know you're away. Just go spec, or simply stand afk.
