I'd say Brian and Florian have different ideas, Brian considers a
reserved slot to be for a VIP to the server, and Florian considers it
to be a reserved slot for the server administrators.
Both valid views, but that means that the preferred operation of the
server depends on it's use. I guess that's why theres the option to
set the sv_ variable or not :)
Ahh, yes for my servers the reserved slots were always for vips.
Actually I have set it up so the reserved slot always stays empty and
when a person joins into it, the server kicks them if they aren't
authorized for a reserved slot or kicks a random non-authorized person
if they are.

can't you catch the connection before a user actually enters the game?
that way they don't have to wait just to be kicked
Unfortunately in 1.6, and I'm sure it's the same in Steam, the Steam ID
doesn't become available for an indeterminate amount of time after they
connect. Obviously it's usually very quick but still not till after they
are connected.
