autoban
« on: January 02, 2013, 15:55 »
Hi,

 I was just wondering, considering that Gproxy is now required to play on the bot, shouldn't it be more effective to remove the autoban and only leave it for when you actually leave the game but not when you lose the connection? anyone can write down that they lost power and just disconnect the internet, and it would just lift some of moderators work.... that's just a suggestion, i am not even sure if the bot can actually distinguish between actual leaving the game and loosing of connection....

Regards
AiLA

Well, I am sure that it's the same abuse right now, from what I know, as long as you are using gproxy, you will get unbanned straight away anyway, and now since everyone has to use gproxy, I would say that the autoban is unfortunatelly absolutely ineffective, considering that the only thing it actually does, it gives unban mods lots of work by reading through forums and unbanning people. If you look at the unban section, almost all of them is just like, I lost power, I mean wtf, that's a lots of BS, if you really do lose power, then it just stops you from playing until someone reads it, and if you just plugged and write that you lost power, mods will unban you anyway. I think, removing the autoban from bot when lost connection would be easier, and just let people post in ban reuqest section when someone does feel like they really plugged.... And also in games, i mostly see, even if someone looses the connection without any reason, people just want to wait saying stuff like, nah lets ban him ftw.... so as I am saying, I don't think that autoban is relevant or helps anything right now.... only gives more work to mods

Dude , mods can check if sb had score like 0 8 and he get's killed and he unplugs , he for sure wont get unbanned . There are tons of ways to see that a player unplugged or he rly lost power or DC .
Mods are specialized on that ( i know since i used to be a B&U mod ). And it's not that hard job , for me it was usually pretty easy .

fair enough, I just feel like this system is way too generous to the people that are actually plugging, and just basically pains the people that actually did got dced at some point, like for example if there is like 50 unban requests, and it happened to me few times that i haven't noticed automatic updates >> automatic restart and i was waiting like a day for a mod to actually read it... and unban me, like fair enough, it's not like none of us have more accounts so we can still play np, I am just saying that i don't really see much of a point in it. but well if you mods do, then fair enough, that's what's the forum for :)

Mate, you wait maximum 1 hour for you to get unbanned. Unban request are priorities, we know how to do our job.

To be honest, I don't have a problem with unbanning ppl, one unban request requires few seconds and if you don't post it in night, you'll get unban in few minutes.

It takes 1 ,2 mins to check if player deserves unban , so autoban is good thing and it will be kept.

On other hand , bans take more time to check , because you need to check chatlog , check if user had similar warnings etc.So imagine we need to ban every rage quiter or plugger , it would take more time.
