With our servers getting used a bit more we have had to do some admining and i

have relised it gets difficult when people have foreign letters(for me) in their

usernames, making it a lengthy task for us admins to do our duties by having

to find those letters in the drop down part.

So why not have a user id, each time a user connects they are given a number

which will stay until they disconect. So say user id "4" is ignoring blue flags you

simply have to type "/kick 4" instead of having to type their full username.

I am quite new to admining so if there is an easier way please tell me

with the player list open, ctrl+shift and right clicking the name should open a new chat window, where you can just hit home / left to the beginning and go /kick

ah, thank you, i didnt know that ;-)

Yeah, that's right. Nevertheless it would be very much easier in a lot of occasions, if you were able to do it in another way. be that a playerid or connectionid (which are already present) or even the lfsw-name. Espescially in leagues you do know that one quite often. so it would already a great improvement, if a lfsw-name would be accepted as input (also since many people don't know the right-klick-thing)

I agree that it should be made a bit easier but a single number wouldn't work, IMO. The danger of kicking the wrong person because of a typo would be too big.

um excuse me, but when you log in as an admin the conns list has kick/ban buttons already for you.


What could be easier than clicking once?

MIND CONTROL!!! OOHHOOHHHHH!

:hide:

I'm laughing, but I don't get it.

e: wait, oh right.

For kicking and banning that's plain right ... I was thinking of such things as penalties ...
