Spammer and general jerk in ZF
« on: April 26, 2014, 08:54:02 pm »
There is a user on the Zombie Fortress server who is known to spam walls of vulgar text with a bind, then act rudely towards other users who call him out. He happens to be a regular, and users ask him to stop daily.

The user in question is "A Rather Festive"

I'm getting sick of his shit, to be quite honest. Let me remind you, the server has rules against spamming in chat.

The auto-ban doesn't ever work, it seems, on mic or text. Also, there's no "ignore x user in chat" function.

Added, thanks!

Next time, it would be very helpful to include a player's steam ID so we can ensure a quicker ban. Luckily I was able to find him. To find an ID, just go into console, type "status" without quotation marks, then copy and paste their steam ID in the list that appears in the console.

Also, muting a player through tf2 should also mute their chat.

I'm not exactly sure about this, as we have spammers in chat all the time on Trading Hell and they don't get chat-banned, but I do know the mic has an auto-gag if people are on it too long.

Usually around Trading Hell and Zombie Hell. Message me on Steam if you need something.

I think that is for Trading Hell only. I've tried it on most of the other servers and client side chat mutes do work.

Yeah, I know that client-side chat mutes work; it even works on Trading Hell. I was more talking about the auto-gag in chat where if someone spams something over and over again, it doesn't gag them automatically.

Usually around Trading Hell and Zombie Hell. Message me on Steam if you need something.
