New voting system

Unread post by Hutch »

So it appears in a previous game someone had a grudge against me for dominating them, so they started a vote asking if i was a scammer. Of course, I was on the fun server, so everyone naturally voted "yes" without reading what the vote said. It appears that I am now banned from the fun server. Can I not be banned from the fun server anymore?

There's a few options for this new voting system to let sourcemod precede over it, once sourcemod is back up, we can see what to set those at...

I'm surprised it does not have its own configs to disallow specific groups of people from using the vote system....or disabling certain votes.

I think he should do that so that when sourcemod inevitably breaks with the next update again, we can momentarily have order automatically before cpt is able to fix it.

no, in fact someone has already changed the settings so that the only vote that can be called is a scramble teams vote.

Well, there is only one other person that can fuck with the server settings on the fun server.

That's the same person that doesn't like to tell me when he makes changes like this or people are unhappy. If I would have known it was an issue, I would have done the same thing on the main server.

He said something about all the plugins being disabled but it didn't make any sense. Just know that I am the only person with access to both servers.

I'll make them work the same right now.

Edit: from what I can tell, all the in-game voting stuff is enabled on both servers, the difference being that the SM plugins for choosing the maps were disabled on the main server and enabled on the fun server (giving you two ways to choose maps). I have enabled the plugins on the main server again.

Sorry 'bout that, Tgame sent me an urgent request that mapchange votes were being hideously spammed on the funS to go to crashing maps. I wasn't sure what happened, so I asked which votes were problematic, and disabled those. Wasn't sure how else to solve the problem.
Sorry if this messed with anything >.<

*sigh* I'll go turn some off. No idea where the overriding values came from.
Map votes off for sure, nextmap votes too? Kicks and bans, probably. What else is problematic?

FYI I'm fairly certain I know the way to make it so the votes re-enable if SM is down. Let me know whether I should implement it or not.

When I looked at the config files, none of the votes were disabled, there was just two ways to vote for maps on the fun server. I'm not sure what you thought you did the first time, but you didn't do it.
