Server Updates/Discussion (Old: We have switched to Ranked!)

You'd get just as much use from your keyboard by shitting on it and wiping your ass with it, but there really isn't much else to do unless enough of the community complains for functionality...

Petitioning in the past with gaming companies have not worked in the past. If only they would listen to the customers once in a while...

Well I guess we could start a petition post on their forums. Anyone interested? I know these functions were vastly available all from bf3 to way back?

Well, at least we have a line now whereas the last 1.5 weeks it's been completely empty. We dropped from 35th to 270th in server rank....

Just an update, as of now, we are able to ban people from the server, which I have been doing for excessive use for racial slurs and disrespect toward players (after 2 warnings). We can do this by adding their IP to the servers firewall. They will be kicked out after about one minute and will not be allowed to rejoin. There are 10 slots for this. I do not know if it increases as I add more, but we will find out soon enough. I am not catching everyone, since I'm not on all the time. The current notification system is only sending out player names, so I will try to find one that gives me IPs. Just figured I'd keep everyone updated on the situation. At least we have some sort of control over the server.

awesome, there are some real punks on late in the evening that just seem to want to troll people. most ignore it and they get tired and leave....have seen the warnings flash up lately though. good to know someone is watching out!

The warnings are automatic, in an attempt to scare people, which seems to be working mostly.

Update again:
If you see anyone using excessive racial slurs or disrespect toward players, please use this command:
@calladmin OffendingPlayerNameHere
I will receive their a list of everyone on the server and I can review the chat logs and will be able to ban them.

I will be modifying the server messages tomorrow to let everyone know how to do it.

And I'll sit on my ass.

I've modified the original post to reflect the current server state.

As a side note, I have found a way to automatically log players using excessive racial slurs. You can still use the @calladmin <messagehere> command.
