"Obfuscate"? isaach was clearly warned that what he was doing was unacceptable before any moderator action was taken.

If a player isn't "troublesome" enough to be either (a) kicked by consensus of the room in direct response to a particular antisocial action or (b) actioned by the admins for a pattern of unacceptable behaviour, they probably shouldn't be kicked.

[spoiler]You might then ask "why does the host have kick powers at all". Perhaps they shouldn't outside passworded games. On the other hand, if somebody is throwing around racist epithets, is blatantly spec-cheating, et cetera, immediate action may be desirable. Worth thinking about.[/spoiler]

There are two teams autohosts available and it is incredibly rare to see both of them being used. There is no reason to believe that discouraging room hosting means that less rooms will be played in, or that fewer people will play.

This
is
a
nice
theory
right
up
until
the
point
where
people
get
ostracised
from
the
community
because
they
pissed
off
the
handful
of
people
who
are
the
most
frequent
hosts.
I
am
not
guessing
here.
This
is
what
happened
in
the
past
when
what
you
have
described
was
the
policy.
The
admins
have
no
interest
in
returning
to
that
state
of
affairs,
and
so
far
I
have
not
seen
an
argument
made
in
this
thread
which
shifts
that
position
one
iota.
Whinge
and
downvote
about
"oh
but
it's
my
room"
all
you
like.
