[1.0] [Vote ForceSpec] Required?

Post by MrA »

I know this about 3 days late ;) (1.0 is launched)....

However, I observe, that it would be beneficial to have a vote ForcedSpec, usually in preference to Vote Kick.

Reason 1
A player has been active on server, but went afk, he needs to be removed from play, but it seems harsh to kick. It can be better to do forced spec rather than kick, surely? - As this way promotes a friendlier community than the boot, kick, punch, screw you, get out, that is common with FPS.

Reason 2
As a server admin, I have even been in the position, more than once, when on joining my own server, even as a spectator, I am immediately vote kicked out by whoever is there. If all they could do is vote ForceSpec me, then I can talk to them.... and believe me, I would love to have a chat!

So, if I could enable ForceSpec as a vote, I can disable (-1) Kick as a vote, if I wanted to.
I know I can disable vote kick, but with no vote ForceSpec, I don't want to disable it

So, how about that? ;)

I know that sometimes, you get a 100% moron who needs to be kicked due to unexplainable abusive behaviour, but vote forcespec + 'vote ignore' (or personal choice to set on ignore), is almost the same as kick, while keeping an admin in his seat, and keeping SM a step above other FPS in terms of friendliness!

Totally agree to @MrA ! A votespec callback should be implemented
