Eject Vote : Who Done It?

<div class="IPBDescription">this would make a good plugin</div> Hello,

I am from the WDF Network, we're ranked #3 right next to the 2 NS Arms Lab servers in the country for NS. We've had a lot* (and i can't emphasize that word enough) of complaints about the fact that we can't see who started the eject votes. It's causing a lot of confusion and problems, so let's cut to the chase:

does anyone know where I can find a plugin to display who starts an eject vote? Or for that matter, is there any way I can find out at all?

Any help with this would be awesome. We're looking to finally put an end to the chaos caused by this.

    I've played on a server that has had things like this.

    It said

    "aeroripper has voted down on the commander" when you did a eject

    and it said somebodies name when then ejected. It does exist i just don't know what it was called.

    I wonder if this is just a problem on our servers alone... Nobody can find this plugin for 3.0??

    unfortunetly TLM wasn't allowed in to the tourney due to owner, but our community does have this problemas well.

    perhaps a phase to I&S is in order?

    I get this problem!

    I've longed for a plugin that will tell me who voted out a comm, it would be really nice!

    Also helps in ridding the server of nubs who vote the comm out for no reason just for the sake of it!

    Due to the consequental nature of occational reality shifts, the interdecompressional status of multibipolar timeframe events is often unpredictable and riddled with calculations involving fully or partially random numbers.

    Perhaps a phase to bug reports is in order?

    I wrote that plugin which shows who voted to eject the commander. I haven't updated it for 3.01 yet. When I do I'll post it to www.modns.org or that other site run by depot if its not up by then.

    yes i do.....

    get someone who has acess to the server, go into where ns is installed, and their should be a folder called "logs". my admins came to me and say "hey xeno, there was someone who started vote eject for no reason constantly after being told to stop. it was at 1:30pm. can you check it out for me?" and i say sure. i go in the logs, they show the date and times, i go into a log, look for 1:30 or search by the word "eject" and bada bing, steam id and name. then ban for 7 days. works for me.

    Yes but on those servers where the stupid admins are commanding, it's awesome to eject them without them knowing who to ban. Don't put this on your server.

    Jane, this is precisely WHY i want to put this on our servers. We have people who abuse the eject vote, and people who aren't regulars think it's a legit vote so they vote too. That's why I said this causes confusion and chaos, to say the least. I'll check out Voogru.

    You think its "awesome" to start a vote to eject a comm without no one knowing who started it!

    You need to grow up ya lil ****!

    If you want to go and be a lil childish ***** go and get your own server and do it because you spoil the game when u eject a comm because you think its "awesome" you stupid ******* *****!

    Sorry but i really can't stand people who spoil a game by ejecting a comm because they think its "awesome" <!--emo&:angry:--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/mad-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='mad-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    When the commander is terrible enough to warrant a vote by me, it's not ruining the game by ejecting them. (My definition of terrible does <b> not </b> include new players, I am only refering to commanders who think they are doing well, and therefore don't listen to a word you say, and are really slow at dropping meds/ammo/structures.) As it was said before it takes more than one person to eject, and if you really think people just vote to eject to be like lemmings, then whine at them and not the person who had a legitimate reason to start the vote.

    Sometimes, I've seen that once two commanders have been ejected in a row, the pattern continues: every person from then on who gets in is ejected. It's like a drug: when no one can see that you are voting to eject, you can't help yourself: it's just so funny to see the votes just piling up and every single commander get ejected...

    If names were attached, we might be better able to stop such cascades of ejects.
