edit public room kicking permission

yesterday i was kicked by aquanim from public game just because i say "lol aquanim"

this happens after i resigned and saw a scylla under water, i did not expose what he is doing at that time and aquanim type in !kick hougo as soon as i type in "lol aquanim" in all chat.

i have no intention to say it in public and tell the other team about that , i just feel it is funny how he got scylla at such place.

after the kicking i feel that highest ranking player AKA room master , should not have the ability to kick other player in any public room. it shall be voted by 5 top ranked player in game or all player.

well if admin play a game , he should have the same permission as all other player, how you feel if you got kicked from a game without a valid reason?

if there was no reason then that would be odd indeed.. but shouldn't you be asking what the reason was?.. its probably a misunderstanding.. just say sorry because its free and then ask what you did.. if there was a mistake made then it still pays to communicate without hostilities and to try to resolve the issue if there is one. i can see your not banned now so perhaps this already all blew over and we can all move on?

once upon a time there was a sleeping guard..

he wakes up at the end of a spear with the king ordering his arrest..
'what did i do?' pleads the guard..
to this the king replies 'nothing' pointing at a dead merchant a short distance away..

'but i was asleep' tells the guard..

'yes.. take him away' barks the king as he leaves..

'wait you cant do this demands the guard.. 'iv done nothing'...

the king holds his exit a moment and looks down at the blood.. his word deadly cold almost in whisper 'exactly'

Instant Replay:

EXPLAIN THIS AQUANIM!!! I STRONGLY DISLIKE THIS BEHAVIOR!

lol aquanim

Might I suggest that we try to not start kicking people for using all chat, resigned or otherwise. If we really really want to disallow spectators from using all chat, let us just do exactly that in the code. However, as long as one can make a second account and join the same game, there is no need for anyone to speccheat in order for "secrets" to be disclosed. It is a game after all. Open source game which is super easy to hack too, if that is something that people want to do.

Maybe a more general vote kick? or asking him to stop all chatting first? Seems like he had no chance with the instant kick.

But when we (normal peasants) want to kick a spectator we need half the lobby to agree.

Where steelmor at min 38 wanted to kick IlKasper who was spectating (rightfully so imo) and needed an amazing 14 votes to proceed, and you know how many he got? That's right 1! If you count steelmor himself that is :)

I don't think I've ever seen a spec get kicked without an admin straight up !kick and in those situations it is usually for WAYYY minor stuff like "lol Aquanim" (great meme potential btw).
We (normal peasants & players) also don't want senseless spec spam and of course would rather for them to silently stfu but can't because half the lobby needs to agree and sense it is difficult already for half the lobby to agree to start the game itself I believe there should be a significant reduction of the polls required to kick a spec as this is just silly. Hell, we don't even need to kick, a simple all chat disable poll for that person would fix it and save the "ego damage" drama of kicking someone.

The current system makes it so that the only instant solution to spec all chat is muting someone, which, IS NOT OK, because as some of you may know, this is a team game. And a team game where people have each other muted is not much of a "team game". You know what someone said the moment steelmor tried to kick IlKasper?
- "oh that guy, he is in my muted list".

I just hope to not be in a team where that person is air and IlKasper has a nuke.
