Hello,

I'm rather an usual player on wireplay from some time and what i miss so much is the days when actually votekick were effective. The way that the votekick is implemented now it makes it rather useless against glitchers, mic_spammers, an specially afk'ers. It's not the first time that me and everyone on the server has just to wait more than 20 minutes waiting for that active "afk" player (those ones that just stays at beginning alive and moving) because the requeriments to votekick is ridiculous, like 15 votes or so, or almost with the votekicks of everyone except a few people (consisting a number not greater than 2) and it stills don't work.

Possibly i don't ask to revert it as to where it was (because i saw how you could kick a ZM which just was doing his job) but the way it is now it is possibly worse.

I would want to ask somewhat between the middle... just lowering a bit the requeriments it would be fine for everyone and we wouldn't rely so much to admins, freeing them a bit of their duties also.

Thank you.

I'm with you!

Also it would be nice and useful to create a new kind of user "in-game" profile beable to kick and/or temp ban griefing (also really stupids) players. A moderator/watcher profile. It's possible to be implemented this "feature"?

we are not ready to consider giving the upgraded access required for such a feature to non staff members at the moment dquest.

as for lowering the votekick requirements: we are working on a plugin to add lots of new shiny features when 1.2.0 comes out.
