I don't object to reserved slots, but I DO object to the yoclan server which has FOUR F**KING RESERVE SLOTS! And they're not even the kind where you get kicked if a clanner joins, I could live with that, theyre the kind where you can't even JOIN.

heh. I have a system where the kicking for reserved slots is based on a points system. Who ever has the least amount of points. Here is the system:
Something like this
// Non-team specific #define SCORE_NOTEAM 0 // Spectators/Readyroomers #define SCORE_RESERVED 1000 // Player has reserved slot access. #define SCORE_RCON 10000 // Player has rcon access. #define SCORE_DEAD 0 // Kick dead people before anybody else. #define SCORE_FRAGS 0.5 // Factor for frags. Float value. #define SCORE_LOWTEAM 500 // Player is on a team with a lower amount of players. (To help curve uneven teams.)
// Marine specific #define SCORE_COMMANDER 200 // Player is: commander #define SCORE_HEAVY 20 // Player is: heavy armor #define SCORE_JETPACK 20 // Player is: jetpacker #define SCORE_LIGHT 0 // Player is: light armor
// Alien specific #define SCORE_SKULK 0 // Player is: skulk #define SCORE_GORGE 20 // Player is: gorge #define SCORE_LERK 30 // Player is: lerk #define SCORE_FADE 40 // Player is: fade #define SCORE_ONOS 50 // Player is: onos #define SCORE_EGG 10 // Player is: gestating #define SCORE_UPGRADE 1 // For each upgrade they have. Keep low. #define SCORE_RES 0.5 // factor for resources in a score. This is to be a float value.

No, I will not show an admin respect if he boots people for the hell of it. Or for teasing him. That's just retarded, I'll just find a new server. And so should other people, without people on the server the stupid admin can't do that crap anymore and thus would take his server down. HAH.

That might encourage hording resources though. Also, I'd imagine that kicking aliens with lots of resources isn't as much of a problem as kicking aliens who have evolved to a higher lifeform, because while resources are preserved on rejoin, evolution is not.
