 Posted: Thu Feb 07, 2008 1:18 pm Post subject: TF2 admin rules and current list of admins |
 |
|
Here are the TF2 Admin Rules. The following items are rules that admins must follow or they will be removed from the admin list.
If you have a legitimate complaint against an admin for breaking these rules, PM Warface or Welder so we can be aware of it.
Admin rules
The FearedGamer TF2 server is owned and operated by FearedGamers. However, the server is sponsored by iZ3D, a very trusted and prestigious company. Although FearedGamers is not run like a business, we do have to hold professionalism in the highest regard. This is why we have come up with a set of rules for the admins of our servers. We must insist on admins following these rules, otherwise, the reputation of FearedGamers declines.
NEW RULE: ADMINS MUST USE THE !CSAY COMMAND IN CHAT TO:
1) WARN USERS BEFORE THEY KICK/BAN THEM
2) AFTER KICKING/BANNING, ADMIN WILL PUT REASON IN !CSAY
1) No admin shall ever harass a player on the server. This includes when a player is harassing an admin. We do not want admins to stoop to the user’s level, especially if the user becomes violent.
2) No admins shall ever use racial slurs. An admin may use a swear word here and there, but we would rather keep the admin looking professional.
3) No admin will kick a player for talking or playing music on the mic, unless the majority of the server feels that the person is being annoying by doing such things.
4) An admin shall not kick a player for no reason. There needs to be a reason for a kick. Just because an admin doesn’t like a player does not justify a kick.
5) Permanent bans are not allowed. Permanent bans must be cleared through the FearedGamers staff. When a member warrants a permanent ban, a screenshot must be taken of what they did. An admin can ban for a period of time, and we encourage that the admin does this, if the situation calls for it.
6) Use a gradual grade of punishments before kicking or banning an individual. Warn the user a number of times. If the user doesn't comply, kick them. If they come back and still doesn't comply ban them for one hour. If they come back and continue, alert the FG staff.
7) Do not kick players to make room for yourself or another admin/player. The only exception to this is when a player is AFK and is in spectator mode.
8 ) Be democratic about map changes. If you are going to change the map, make sure that the other players on the server agree with your change, then start a random vote using ma_voterandom.
9)Admins will enforce melee rules. If the server is in agreement about melee only on a map, then the admin will do a vote for the "Melee Only" map in the maplist. If the vote fails, then the map will be played with regular weapons. This is not a melee only server.

I'm not necessarily saying this should or should not be a rule on the server but perhaps some discussion on it needs to happen for a general ruling. This might also need to be it's own thread with a poll or something, if so just let me know or please move this to it's own thread.
The (delicate) issues are:
spawn camping
melee only
Should Spawn camping be enforced? What would be the definition of spawn camping? I was playing Dustbowl one afternoon and my entire team was trapped in spawn the entire round. It was very frustrating and while I stayed, many people left out of that frustration. Is that something that should be stopped or is it all fair game? At what point would it be decided that the majority aren't able to have fun?
As far as Melee only goes, generally it;s decided when the server has only a few players and everyone agrees that it's the only way to really have fun at that time. Inevitably 1 new guy joins and won't play along. This leads to hard feelings and generally a lot of negativity on the server. While I realize that the majority of people join to play a shooting game, if the majority of people occasionally agree on special rules for a special set of circumstances should 1 person be allowed to break up that harmony?
I'm fine with however the ruling comes down but I think they need to be addressed in the admin rules because these are common enough occurrences and each admin seems to have their own idea of what the right answer is right now. Consistency is the key. |

I applaud the introduction of admin rules! The list is quite reasonable and comprehensive, imho.
I busted out laughing when I realized Prodigy broke every rule listed during his reign as self-proclaimed admin/disagreeable person.  |

We actually had the rules for the longest time, but it was in the alws forum, and not in the public, seeing that 9/10 admins are alw, and 1 is not.
Its good tho that he moved it to this thread now.

Hah Number 2 shouldn't even need to be on there. Thats just IMO. Anyone using racial slurs on the server should be warned, then kicked. I myself say a lot of non PC stuff but it's generally with the intent of being humorous, not insulting.

Spawn camping should be defined as killing players as they are exiting their spawn points. This is mostly to do with the door that usually separates the spawn area from the play area. Everyone should give the other team enough room to come out of the spawn area for at least 10 feet. Setting up stickies or a sentry right outside the door is not allowed.
Melee only. This is a sore subject with some people. Present company included. We just put a melee only map on the server. It can be picked by an admin to be played for as long as the people on the server want. Plus, no one can use weapons in it. In terms of melee only on other maps.....this is my feeling on that. If there are no admins on the server, then fine.....do the melee only; however, when an admin comes on and says "Back to regular play" ....then that's what we should do. We're not a melee only server....and you're right, people do join to play and shoot weapons. The best thing to do is play one round regular weapons and one round melee......don't do the entire map melee because that really starts to make people mad.

Spawn camping is not spawn camping if the Goal requires you running through the area they come out of though.

well that would be running by their spawn. Camping is... well... camping. Sitting outside their spawn for the sole purpose of keeping anyone on the opposing team from playing the game. |

yah i have seen people literally just sit outside spawns before on a map like that camping like bastids with the excuse. i need to go past etc!
which 99% of time is total BS.
Although i have been accused of camping before simply cos everytime i tried to run past i ended up having a fight then needing to run back abit to grab some hp an try again rinse an repeat..
Maps liek that are silleh!
I could never be admin. i would break most of the rules on my 1st day  |

Well by Definition, I have "Camped" the Spawn points many times. Usually it's either Escorting a flag carrier past it or basically to hold people back a few moments so an goal can be met, sometimes it is required, BS as it is, to win a game. And its' honestly a mappers fault if there isn't a secondary way out of a spawn area.

No, well I dont know but Im sure Warface and Welder dont want people messing with gravity on any of the servers. TF2 or MTA. It fucks up things.

Lol worthy with Demo stuff, though. At least when gravity is set back to normal.  |
