    Well, there IS actually a sourcebans that is still being updated. And I don't know why we don't swap to a more updated version.

     

    It features:

    Timed mutes, gags, and silence.

    Easier time bans, such as hour, day, week, month, year, etc.

    Example: !ban <user> hour <reason>

    It is obviously more cared for, since its being updated. So less of the bugs would exist if we used it.

    [RELEASE] SourceBans++ (v1.5.4.7) [updated: 2016-04-28] - AlliedModders = AlliedModders Thread

     

    EDIT: I've used this before in my old surf server, and it all worked fine. Just thought I should include that before people say that, "Oh it's broken!"

    An official update of the original, or a remake/fork? I've been out for 2 months, don't know any new changes.

    Now I have no clue how sourcebans works so I don't know wtf im talking about in regards to changing it.

    But would it even be possible?

     

    I find the system to be fairly... laggy... and somewhat difficult to navigate through. And as for the not being able to tell why someone was banned sometimes thing, do you think a "Details" type section (where the admin would fill out at the least a bare bone form detailing some points to give us a better idea as to why they were banned, rather than "Freekiller" or "scripter") would be even a smart thing to do?

    The SourceBans plugin that are on the servers have a pre-determined list of what you can ban for. For a "Quick and Easy" ban, though there is an option for a detailed explanation, though mods and higher are picked for their competency, so the members and xG staff can trust them and their bans. As well, if there's any confusion or issues they can be approached to explain their situation and opinion.

     

    Other than that, honestly my only comment about sourcebans is it feels outdated. Bad navigation and bad looks/response time.

     

    ALSO CAN THERE BE A PERM OPTION FOR MODS PLEASE? I keep having to go to a DM/DL/A to get a ban changed every now and then ._.

     

    The plugin is old and mostly just fixed to make it work, the saying "Why fix it if it ain't broke" would apply here. Creating a brand new ban management system would take quite a while. Though there is the option to fix and touch it up. Also, mods should never have permanent ban options. The whole "Mod" concept is a "Mini-Admin", if you do well enough as a probationary admin, you get to be promoted into admin.

    but the whole point of hub originally was to unify the donation system and have it be a single central donation thing. that way someone donates $20 they get $20 of credits they can use on whatever, instead of $20 donation and choose: $20 credits or $20 donation package for TF2

     

    correct me if I am wrong in that, but to me it would make sense to merge everything into hub and give people what they already donated for. it would also clean up sourcebans if we can remove all those people that have "admin" because it just gives them different custom flags in it for TF2 donations (there are literally like 420 different sourceban power groups for it, donator, super donator, ultra donator, mod xyz admin xyz)

    With regards to this, creating a universal hub is not difficult, as we already have MySQL servers set up correctly for this situation. The only difficulty would be adjusting the hub plugin to recognize a "_tf2" item vs a "_csgo" item cs a "_mc" item. Which would just need a flag and a parser to not get confused. Not as difficult. From my talks with @Rhododendron this was the first goal. Though development slipped away and died. Though I'm back from where I was, so I can be a more active person, which I'm sure I'll have fun and enjoy properly.

    Oi motherflipper, tag me BEFORE you spam my messages. I told you, I always read anything I'm tagged in.

    @metalslug53 you better not step down, anyone who I recommended/approved to be CL usually steps down after a few months. (no names, bach, drlee, but no names).

    @Liekos & @Fiery8022 read admin forums, have fun, remember I will still cut you both

    yeah is pinion not on css anymore?

    and @Legend

     

    Discuss with your CSS DM and DL to talk about removing it. As a DL of TF2, after discussion with Silence, we have decided we can remove pinion for TF2. I won't remove it on other divisions as it is not my control.
