Hello all,
A little while ago I was playing on a Black Shark server labeled Quirks Coop. When I logged in two players were exploiting around the anti-TK system the server was using. No one knew how to initialize a vote-kick so I looked it up, because the server had servman enabled. I intialized the votekick on one of the players and received enough votes for him to be removed. I also tried the other player and the vote failed, but I figured since he had not TK'd someone in a while that I would just leave it be.
A little while later the first TK'r rejoined the server and one of the other players asked me to start up a votekick, I did and it suceeded again 4/0. After playing for a while two more people join and not a minute later the TK'r I had left be initialized a votekick on me. The two new players immediately vote yes, and then one of the people that had voted yes on kicking the original TK'r voted to kick me also (I figured this was a mistake due to not paying attention).
I rejoined the server after a while only to see that the three players were votekicking other players from the server that had kicked the actual TK'r. They kicked one person off, and saw I had rejoined and kick me off, both times winning with a 3/2 vote I believe.
Sorry for the long story, but I was just wondering is there anything you can do in this situation other than join another server? I'm guessing not, but I would like to be sure.
EDIT: Left this part out. If there is not anything you can do, is there anyway the server admin can see in their servers log anyone who is TK'ing or abusing the mechanics, and then Ban their IP address?
EDITEDIT: Removed Names (Sorry about that).
Thank you
