I wonder why I can't find that thread anymore, maybe I only dreamed about it, but I'm sure I had at least discussions about this with several fellas on IRC, or there's a lost thread in the depth of the alientrap universe.
:
I get frequently mad about some ppl who logon to a gameserver and stay in spectator mode for hours, just to keep a place on the right server occupied and continue playing somewhen. Very popular especially on Minstagib or TDM servers. For that reason I cant join then and have to keep out. This is annoying.
So why not set an optional feature to auto-kick those, I call them -666 campers, after a certain time limit.
What do You think?
kick the -666 campers !

don't think that this is possible because usually a map won't long that long and how should the engine remember which player was spectator for how long over several maps ??

Well, Dave is going to start studying software technologies at the university, surely he'll find a solution for that if no other genius will find it sooner
Serious, how many things are no big deal to us now that we haven't even dreamed of, only a few years ago. Talking about "not possible"...

I object. Many new players use the spectator mode to learn about the maps and gameplay. A possible solution to eliminate the parking corpses would be to make spec mode only available on holding down the spec key, if thats possible.

For one round yes, but as soon as the map changes they will be left in freefly mode.
