I like runequake, but I haven't played it much in quite a while. 1 reason is that there are more busy quake servers lately, but also there are a few players that completely ruin the game with the bot bs etc.
I know slot your opinion is that the less moderation the better, to just let people play and people should only be banned for cheating. However, these 3-4 people hurt the community, and cause people to leave the server and not want to play.
I see no reason why these 3-4 players shoudl be allowed to chat in game. They only connect to the server to troll. These players should receive a "chat ban" until they agree to stfu. If they want to come to play, they can do so. If they dont want to play cause they are only in it for pissing people off, they should leave, because if they don't others will.
Dude! There are other servers. Someone can play at Fear or other places if they choose.
Quake has always had wonderful little characters with little beady eyes lurking on servers.
If it makes people want to leave the game, why are there usually 10+ players at Shmack, heh.
The trolls are part of Quake, always have been. And trolls that hang around the server all day make good Quaking business.
Who wouldn't want to connect to a server with 3 or 4 players that stroke your ego by calling you a bot.
Do you know how many players over the years that they have bragged they got called "a bot" on the server?
