YO kermit , the ban for spawn killing how long is it ? is it just till the person see's the error of his ways or is it permanent? and who decides on if they spawn kill?

Donk, These are good questions.
It is not permanent. The player can come on the forums and ask for the ban to be removed. The spawn killing happened when he just camped the spawn and was told to move on and he did not. This happened before we had any kind of spawn protection. The problem was we asked him to move away from the spawn area in which he did not. He would also go back to the spawn area after he was killed and start spawn killing again. The player was kicked from the server only to return and do it again. We try to be as fair as passable before kicking or banning. There are times we may kick or ban before we should and in that case we give the player a chance to come in the forums and ask for the ban removal.
Who Decides if they spawn kill? Someone will complain about spawn killing and a member will then goto spec the player to see what they are doing. From there we ask the player to stop spawn killing and then decide to kick them with reason. If they come back and do it more the the decision will be to ban them. Any of the Full members can ban a player as long as they give the player a chance to correct it.
After a player is banned we will post it here giving the player a chance to ask for ban removal.

I agree with your reasons.. as you know its a topic that bugs me. fair play is a must and i loath cheats.we have one or two who are known to me take tonight for example i told (the console ) i was monitoring spawn points and the persone moved away for a time.the trouble is the building he uses covers a fair ammount of the map but it covers the spawn points.. i like your idea to move spawn points..( could the server be set up in such a way to constantly move the spawn points?? do you have a forum section that deals with just general chat? where people can go to talk about anything,

General chit chat would be posted in The Sign Post
The pit is for members only, where too on occasion some general chit chat goes on, however for the most part it's used to keep items of discussion from the general publics view.
