WHY ??? Personally I find this bloody frustrating I join thinking its going to be a blast with plenty of players and find out when actually in game its only a handful. Why not just not leave the bloody game. And yes I understand Admins sometimes spectate dubious players but 7 or 8 really. Crazyhorse 1 Awards

Going into a map thinking its nearly full to find 7+ people spectating so in reality there are only a few people actually playing also going into a map when it says 30 people playing to find 12 spectators for the whole map. Plain ENGLISH...........IF YOU DO NOT LIKE A MAP LEAVE. I have never spectated a map. If I do not like one I play it anyway or if i am going to the toilet I LEAVE or getting a drink I LEAVE.........so anyone wanting my spot can take it DOES THAT MAKE SENSE NOW deerejon 1 Awards

I leave maps when they just become run and gun, you need more skill stalking fewer players, brings out the clever and sneaky ones.

NO I do not wait until a map is full most times I will join regardless so sorry your wrong there. My point..... there used to be a RULE here that said do not spectate unless you are an Admin spectating a suspicious player. So up to 10 players spectating is ok...... fine next time I need a drink or such i will just not give a damn about other people and go to spectate and come back whenever i feel like it Awards

Actually no it does not. It will redirect all non members to svr 1 untill there are just XI members in the server. It does not redirect XI members even if they are AFK in Spectate. B3 Bot or Big Brother Bot was what kicked people for being afk or in spectate for an extended amount of time. Sense NFO servers does not allow the use of Pluggins such as B3 Bot this duty falls on to the admins to kick spectators and AFK people. I only kick Spectators when the server starts to fill up and only after I tell those in spectate to Join or be kicked. Those of you that join and go afk all the time need to either leave the game, if you will be AFK "more than a couple minutes" or go to Spectate if you are going to be AFK for "only a couple minutes". Don't sit in Spectate for the whole map. Please do NOT join just to go AFK all day to download the maps. Please use the XI Downloader. It downloads much much faster and your not taking up the slot on the server. Edited December 20, 2018 by J3st3r baldie 1 Awards

Sorry you are right, what I meant was the admins, mods, will ask them to join before kicking them, which is right, but now and again some people are spectate for hours if no one else on server. but surely there is a way of putting a time limit on?

We do not have the ability to run the necessary plugin. Blame the SHIT server host for the very very limited amount of things that we can do. We're lucky we can even admin the servers without full RCON control. Only 1 admin tool works to any extent and even that tool has not been updated sense September 2011. @Ruggerxi Would it be possible to run B3 Bot with a couple of plugins sense we are now running 2 boxes? Just on COD4 server 1 and MW2 146b9. Can you please ask the Host? Edited December 20, 2018 by J3st3r RobMc and baldie 2 Awards

Hi Baldie ... long time no see... I hope you are doing well, buddy. I still don't get what you are getting off of your chest here. I think you mention the fact of people being afk and your frustration about not playing with the same amount you think should be there. Well, I'm sorry sometimes that happens not always can be like every single member wants. I agree with you about those players spend HOURS in Afk but there are not that many. Now it’s good that you bring up the subject because maybe the proper thing to do is leave the server when you know you will not play for several hours, that should be common sense and respect for the rest of the of the community that wants to play. Unfortunately, once again, not all of the players have the same manners. Even with that, if the server is full and there are no more spots for potential players there is when the adm or mod acts to remove specs, it's only to make room for the players that will actually play, that's how we deal with the issue and it’s always been like this. Please understand Adm and Mod are not here to babysit players or teach those kinds of manners we are here to resolve main issues. RobMc, baldie and J3st3r 3 Awards
