MrAwesome104 5 Posted September 15, 2013 So today we found a person who was bhop scripts on jailbreak today, @@xShadowSpyx @@GanjaMonster @@speedlimit56 we realized that we cant do perm bans @@DarkWolf6052 Why take away perm bans and only let admins perm. Cause the mods are more active than the admins. Also, we have less admin than mods. So the point is give mods back perm. 1 5 diabeetus, payturr, JINGS and 3 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
payturr 2 Posted September 15, 2013 Why this was taken away from us is beyond me. Why differentiate us from that? If you wanna make admins & mods have big power differences, take away PM or @@@ from mods or something. Don't take away a necessary function that we have to use in certain situations! +1 3 DCook, Haxx and speedlimit56kb reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kyoko 0 Posted September 15, 2013 +1, most of the mods have been real active (i've been sports and having a life) but as shown above what if this case happens (which it did) aslong as mods don't abuse it i dont see a problem *i also just woke up and was linked to this so sorry if my thoughts are not written out right* Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
xGShadowSpy 108 Posted September 15, 2013 +1, mods are more active than admins, removing perms for us is just plain dumb when it's something we need to use. 1 DCook reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
speedlimit56kb 0 Posted September 15, 2013 +1 taking away perm from mods is like cutting off the wings to a bird. It's plain dumb to do such thing and i think we should get it back. 1 DCook reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
diabeetus 20 Posted September 15, 2013 +1. Even if there were more admins than mods, and the admins were much more active than the mods, it still makes no sense to take away a mod's ability to perm ban someone if necessary. I don't understand how anyone thought that this was a good idea. 1 DCook reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LeToucan 136 Posted September 15, 2013 im going to assume the server was set up the same way the CSGO server was set up. Mods never have been able to perm someone who is currently in the server. Though, they can use ban disconnected players to permanently ban. If you truly need to perm someone, kick them and then perm them with ban disconnected players. 1 Tsuchikure reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MrAwesome104 5 Posted September 16, 2013 @@Matsi I'm talking about Perm server bans. You only perm ct banned.... and the proof is in source bans Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tsuchikure 38 Posted September 16, 2013 (edited) +1 I don't see a real good reason to not let them have it. Didn't know about that "Ban disconnected players" trick either. :o Just let them do it and we're all good, everything will be easier (sort of) for everyone then. :afro::afro::afro::afro: Edited January 8, 2016 by Rhododendron (see edit history) 1 DCook reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Genesis 0 Posted September 16, 2013 Although scripters/hackers aren't common, it would be nice to have access to perm so we can deal with them when they arrive. Considering there is almost always more than a single mod/admin on the server, we can all vouch and provide evidence for our reason to perm ban someone. If anything else I'd just perm for like 999999999999999 minutes (but that isn't practical). TL: DR (for megafagin) Give us perms pls. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DarkWolf6052 0 Posted September 16, 2013 Currently the process was pretty much to either: A. Kick them and ban from disconnected players menu. or B. Ban them for a week and have a higher up lengthen the ban. +1 to give mods back the permanent banning ability directly from the server. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kona309 0 Posted September 16, 2013 +1 Perms are nice to be able to use, as long as people don't caboose with them. Banning for a huge amount of time causes the ban not to work. I'm not sure why though. 2,147,483,647 is the max number in a 32 bit system, so if you exceed that, it breaks things. 1 DCook reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
