How about a "Good Guy" system which would work the opposite of a ban list.
I would work something like this: 1. The player signs up, for free, at a website and is granted instant access to "Good Guy" servers. Supplied info from player would be minimal to avoid issues with the under 14 players and such. Just the email address (the player would have to reply to activate) and thier SteamID would really be all you needed. 2. With an Admin plugin, only "Good Guy" players can join a "Good Guy" protected server. 3. All players on the server are able to police themselves, when there is no Admin present, with majority votes to kick or ban (revoke "Good Guy" status) with a plugin. 4. The players could vote to start a demo on the suspected player (which would be silent, all players except the suspect would vote). Maybe set up the plugin to send copies of the log to the master system for review (to see if the player was just being lippy and pissed everyone off, ect...). 5. Revoked players would be able to appeal the revoked status. Set up a set number of times a player may be revoked and reinstated before they are ineligible to be a "Good Guy". I've been thinking about this for months. Now, where are the real holes? Of course, it will be a pain cuz players won't want to sign up, but then again, players who are tired of the hackers might find some refuge in the idea. I think the best part is: The legit players can police themselves. Myself, if I see a player being an ass on my team, I want him gone too. Thoughts?
