only server owners should be able to do that, he has no business giving himself power without consent of server owners, even if it was to stay on top of pit, what he did is wrong and unacceptable
I don't fully agree. I agree that just kicking people should not always been allowed, however, I think every assist admin, should have kick rights, in order to immediately kick out cheaters.
If I ban a player from assist, he is still able to play as long as he is still in the server, wouldn't it be in everyones benefit if I can kick that cheater out as well - immediately?
I've seen some server admins abusing their powers like hell, while they use OUR assist server for authentication.
What gives them more rights to do this kind of stuff?
I think the above reason to have to kick rights should fully allow me to - in case it's necessary - join every server with admin rights, when it is needed to stop a cheater.
However, the rights should NOT be abused for kicking for no reason. As long as I do NOT see this happening, I'm totally fine to have an admin also handling anti-cheat having kick rights.
I'll ask you a very controversial question:
If an admin kicks me, just because he's powerhungry and doesn't like getting killed, can I then join as assist admin, and kick him, as he is playing on assist server ultimately?
In fact, it's exactly the same behaviour as he did, but as server admin, it seems to get tolerated, and as assist admin, shit just hits the fan.
- Note: This did not happen. I am against that kind of behaviour, I just want to open eyes that server admins should not be immune if they are being toxic. They have a privilege with responsibilities. If you abuse this, I think a punishment should be in place just to stop these practices from happening. This is in everyones benefit in the long term.
