Usergroups

Hey, I still got more ideas coming

Anyway, in this old game I used to play online, there
is a system for admin levels, Usergroups. You can have
as many groups as you like and set permissions for them.
and if you want you can even have the group permissions
add up cumulatively so that when you set a group you only
have to define the NEW permissions for that as the person
would already have the permissions from the previous groups.

Also, It would be nice for the higher admins to have
a special permission which countered bans. To ban a
high level admin, you would have to remove their level
first. So for example:

-=NA=-KaosTwilight: !ban Papaya 999Y hahahahahahaaa
!ban: -=NA=-Papaya is protected from being banned.
-=NA=-Papaya: !setlevel Kaos 0
-=NA=-Papaya: !ban kaosTwilight 1M Thats not cool...

Obviously this is just an example. I wouldn't think
this would actually happen. Just to show how this would
work.

Also, this might just help with Q3fill problems:

Assassin has connected
Assassin has connected
Assassin has connected
Assassin has connected
Assassin has connected
Assassin has connected
Assassin has connected
Assassin has connected
Assassin has connected
Assassin has connected
-=NA=-Papaya is protected from being banned
-=NA=-Happy! is protected from being banned
Assassin has connected
Assassin has connected
Assassin has connected
Assassin has connected
-=NA=-Shadow was banned
-=NA=-Pit_Viper was banned
Google_CamelNo.9 was banned
Google_GreyFox was banned

-=NA=-Papaya: !unban Shadow
-=NA=-Papaya: !unban Pit_Viper
-=NA=-Happy!: !unban Camel
-=NA=-Happy!: !unban Grey

-=NA=-Happy!: !kick Assassin
14 players kicked

You get the picture.
So what do you all think?

Pretty much the way it works in ET. Theres a special flag, identified as an exclamation mark (!), when a level is given it, theyre immune to all shrubbot commands, so that banning/whatevering them has to be rconsoled. Nice idea though

thanks mate.
Just trying to come up with anything that helps

I think I heard somewhere that the google owners
found a way to counteract Q3fill? anyone know if
this is true?

i think they stopped the easy way to q3fill a server to prevent most attacks but i dont think there prone to it

Even that is good
I would say if we can figure out
how to do this, we should.

there was a patch to et 2.55 that made q3fill not work, but that was a version that broke bots, so we don't use it.
basically, dont piss any idiots who might q3fill you off. and take precautions if ya do.

Sometimes you cant help it. We must uphold our
rules and some people just want to auto on an
oldschool server which is not permitted and is
unfair for all the players on the server. They
need to be reprimanded for this and that pisses
them off. They are very audacious little bastards.
