  1. No no and no. We shouldn't let any player know that an admin is online or not because that will make cheating ingame even easier.

    Think through a cheater's perspective:

    1. Joins the server clean...
    2. Uses !online and checks if admins are online...
    3. None are online, so injects hacks, boom!
    4. Someone else joins the game...
    5. Cheater uses !online again to check if he is admin, which he is!
    6. Cheater turns hacks off and plays dumb.
    7. Therefore cheater is never caught.

    Doublepost cuz I wanna emphasise why !calladmin is also a bad idea:

    1. Cheater is aimbotting like crazy...
    2. A responsible citizen does !calladmin
    3. Cheater sees that in the chat...
    4. Cheater leaves the game!
    5. Therefore cheater never caught.

    Damn... That's right :P

    PS:Thanks :)


  2. Some players use it to connect, rename, reconnect and the same thing again causing lag in the server and bothering us I have warned one person about this. (He used a bind to change his name and reconnect)

    This process should not cause laggs in the server. Furthermore you CANNOT warn somebody for something YOU MADE UP. It is not in the rules, hence you cannot warn/kick/ban for reconnecting and/or changing name (except banhoppers obviously)!!!

    6. Enforcing of own rules will lead to a ban / loss of power

    @https://iceops.in/rules/

    You didn't understand the meaning of the word 'warn' right here. I just said him that it's too annoying and I begged him to stop. That's all. Not exactly warn for kick/ ban (I can't even make a server warning :P ).

  3. First number would totally screw up the undercover procedure.

    Furthermore, if an admin isn't online, it is not nice to see hundrets of E-Mails per day, just because someone needs an admin. Honestly, noone would even bother opening all those mails. Players would probably use this function otherwise, too. For example, "ah this map is boring, let's call an admin." In addition, one could also say "yeah, but somebody else took care of it."

    The best way which has proven solid, too, is to use the shoutbox and/or xfire and steam to contact a moderator who is online at that time.

    Sorry for this "negative feedback," but I just see more disadvantages with this sort of system/procedure. ;)

    P.S.: You forgot the option "none of the above."

    Yeh, you opinion about 1 is right. I added the 'none of the above' option. Well, I think it could be somthing that rule that says what are the cases calladmin should be used and, if there were an abuse we could ban for a time perion the abuser.

  4. Well, many cheaters are online when no moderators/ admins are online. That's a problem. So users should know who is admin, who is online and, if no one is, they should be able to call one.

    1) I have seen servers which have a command that is like !admincheck and says if the user is an admin.

    2) There is another command which is like !online and says to the player if an admin is online.

    3) Finally the vere known command !calladmin . The player adds the name of the player who wants to report and a quick description. The system sends a message / email to all the admins/ moderators and... may the faster win :P

    All the above are simple server plugins found very easy and, of course, free. I have created a poll. Please vote but first read EVERYONE IN THAT THREAD!!

    Thanks for your time ^-^


  5. easier way is to change the steam-name while you are ingame and then simply open the console and use the command /reconnect :P
    That reconnect is useful for cases like this. However Some players use it to connect, rename, reconnect and the same thing again causing lag in the server and bothering us :/ I have warned one person about this. (He used a bind to change his name and reconnect)

  6. 4) Obs sounds come from wrong direction or doesn't come at all to some people - not sure for this one

    5) At the end of the map server don't change map (old but still happening quite often)

    6) Nobody can't rename even if steam not on (have to reconnect) - this is fine if u ask me because cheaters cant rename easily

    4) Happens to me ;/

    5) Ye...

    6) Of course it's good. It takes me 3 mins to change name (close cod, change steam name, restart cod, connect) so much time :D


  7. your routers internal clock generator's frequency is too far from the required clock frequency. As you have an AVM device (FritzPhoneBox)

    P.S. Just kidding I can see what you mean, I was just both impressed but baffled by your use of technical terminology :D

    Yeh, when I first read it I was like: :schuettel::supermad:

  8. I keep getting stuck on "Setting up game" after some reconnect limit stuff, while trying to connect to the deathrun server and cant get on, it only shows this (as me) in the server viewer:

    And a connection timeout.

    I had this problem in Obscurity when CoD4X was installed there. I am using Windows. I just forgot it and after some hours I tried again and worked. Maybe a bug??

  9. 1. Your ban wasn't permament... You just got warn for permament in next banhop.

    2. @DuckOnMeth banned you.

    3. You're not forgivable because I warned all the players when the map started not to glitch or they would get banned.

    4. I don't think that such a wallbang (Glass v3) happens 'by mistake'. The activator was moving so you should had aimed on him before you shot.

    5. I'd advise you to stop disguissing the ban and just wait for it to finish.


  10. Hello. I'd like to report this glitcher on deathrun (I saw 2 other people but I wasn't fast enough to get screenshots :/ )

    1. Player's name:* [DW] Ray

    2. Player's GUID or UID: d2a10605

    3. Server:* Deathrun 1.2

    4. Approximate time: 2.00 (GMT +2.00)

    5. Proof:* Look at the attachment. It was the last round and I couldn't get screeenshot of the killcam. He hit me through the glass, then I tried to hide but he hit me again.


  11. IceOps clan is alive, which means the server will be ALIVE :D which means bringing back the mod to LIFE which means IceOps will be crowned :D which means AWESOMENESS!!!!

    are you sure that ALL ice ops server are alive?

    Nope. Some servers like RoZo and Deathrun 1.1 are very inactive.
