Feedback / new bot rules/workarounds
« on: May 25, 2010, 00:25 »
well as far as i understood bot has suffered some changes, and as far as i saw already by some games i 've done so far some of them are very abusable while others are minor.
one of them is the fact u now can t votekick the host ! at least when i tryed it said player is reserved and can t be votekicked. in my opinion if 9 players think that a host it s not doing his jos (has host or has a player) it s because something must be wrong and he should clearly be kicked.
another one is the fact u can t, at least so far, take over the bot when the real host leaves. this as shown to me been very abusable. i can t count how many hosts i ve seen leaving the game voluntarly and not being banned for it. and in most cases no one is in the mood to come report every of this host leavers to the forum... i talk formy self. done it sometimes but most of times i don t wanna waste my time with them. so this leads to bad hosts creating lame games, leaving and go creat more lame games.
i know that most of times ppl that took over bot was incapable od handking it and ended up screwing all... hapened to me baning the wrong person wich i only realised later. but in general it seems to have more benefits above all.
and the last major change is the ban droppers thing. at the begining it seemed to me a good effort on keeping pluggers banned without the need on reporting every of them. cause most of the times u can see when clearly it s a plugg or not.
but suddently i realised that this might get a bit unfair to ppl who just have some ocasional DC's.
It hapened to me already have some DC's. and maybe to everyone. since no one can control the net flow.
and so far i ve seen players who were doing a great game and seemed very unlikle that they would plugg got banned probably because of a DC, and they got banned anyway. as it also hapened to me being in a bad game and have the bad luck to have a dc. i know that all the players inside the game must thought it was plugg. as host did (since i got banned) but it wasn't. just bad luck. and in the end it s very hard to prove it. at least it seems.
sry for the text wall. just wanted to share some opinions so the bot can always be improved
ty for your time.
