Spring RTS Engine

Since we have mute system in Spring games, its more logical to mute specs if they talk something "illegal". It doesnt change anything if you kick him, since he already said the info, so !mute would be much better way to solve such problems.

So when you !votekick it would automatically !votemute first, and after you !votekick when player is already muted, you can kick him...

It doesnt make sense why i cant watch the game, like it was some kind of lame punishment to kick me out, lol.

Plus, some people votes yes without thinking...

Hmm, though Spring doesnt support per player mute, just for all specs at once... would be lame to disable talking from all specs if one is fucker...

IMO kick is not necessary, unless hes lagging.

You mean you want no punishment for something bad that you had the choice not to do yet still did it?

So you're actually requesting a mute system?

There's a command to stop specs speaking to anybody but specs, /nospecchat or something

yeah its /nospectatorchat 1

Yeah it doesnt really matter, since the shit already happened. kinda childish to kick out of game because you say "lol" etc or "lmao" or "lol you suck" etc... mute is enough IMO

Gonna get massively abused by the high number of griefers who plague autohosts. Most of the time when you want votekick, you want to kick, not just mute. Imo getting kicked from a game for saying something as a spec is currently perfect. Action-consequence.
If you said something stupid then mebbe kick will teach you to watch what you say as spec. Speccing is a priviledge, not a right.

This is a very stupid suggestion. It's already too difficult enough to convince people to bother to vote once...
