If it was possible to have micspams shut off unless an admin (or someone else who can manage mutes) is on the server, I would completely approve.

Not everything needs an answer as severe as changing a server setting. Since mic spams are allowed, you have a few options:

1) Use votemute, a little slow but it works.
2) Like you were doing, use the in-game mute.
3) Turn off voice chat altogether, as far as I can remember you don't have a mic and you can turn it back on whenever you please. From the looks of it, it's not real useful anyway with all the spams.
4) Take off your headset/turn off your speakers. I've done it plenty of times, who needs sound, anyway?

I agree, I couldn't play on the server because it was making me mad and then when I vote muted someone it said the winner was no when more people voted for yes. Made me mad but I muted him anyways. Its getting really bothersome, more so now than before and it shouldn't be that we have to shut off our sound or take off our head phones. When a few people are annoyed by it, it should stop.

The fun server is more popular simply because there are more immature people than there are mature. If ranks is all that matters then keep it the way it is. I can't say anything until I get my own server (which I dont have plans to do). I'd just try to secure a good community, much like the reg server was more or less.

I'll believe that when I hear it and a sentence you write doesn't START with, "lol".
