Since there seems to be a problem with AimBots, instaheals from medics 50 yards from players, and some little hack that lets players run around at 100MPH, is there not any sort of votekick feature on your servers? The players on your TF2 - Instant Respawn server has been trying to kick someone all evening and it seems your server doesnt have basic script commands like votekick or voteban.

Forgot the name.... I know Crappachino (sp?) made a fraps video of it. Sniper has 100+ points before anyone else even reached 30. Spies fully cloaked gets head shotted when leaving the fort and then when you did get up on him, he can do a immediate 180 degree turn and head shot you. I saw the score and ALT Tabbed to find the votekick command to your script through Google.. but alas it didnt work. heh

I do agree it does get abused, but right now in time, there's several old hacks that were reopened some how with the last update. You can see demos of them on YouTube.
Your server isnt the only one thats getting abused, but usually votekick works on the servers.
Please remove this if it's abuse, but ArtificalAim, Helios, and Guid-Tech currently arent detected by VAC, and those are the only 3 I know of. I'm sure there's more, but if you Google for TF2 hacks, you'll see alot of posting about old hacks working again.

votekick would be good. There have been some, but not many cases where a votekick is needed. I don't think it would be abused to be honest. There are a lot of regulars on these servers, including myself, who have wished for something like that since there is no admin on most of the time.

in my experience vote kicks don't work well agianst hackers, most people are to ignorant to even realize the person is hacking, and there for the problem arises, i have noticed this happens in many games too
example. i was playing CSS on a server with not only vote kick, but an admion was on to, one of the persons on the other team was using an odvius speed hack, after about a sec after the round started he was already in my teams spaw, and the whole team was slugtherd easly, but when asking why nobody trtyed to kick him they simply replyed, "i didn't even notice"

but is there some kind of way to keep people that are running programs like that out of the server. I mean when they load up the server info and the server loads theirs, isnt there something that can tip the server off that that person is running something different? Like i said im not an expert or anything like it with this stuff but it seems too easy to this stuff.

another day, another person using a speed hack and uber hack. A couple of people were accusing a sniper of hacking, but I didn't see anything. If there isn't a votekick then it becomes really annoying. I'd offer to be an admin on that server (cause I'm there all the time on the 24/7 two fort [no instant respawn]) but thats up to you. I was talking with people on the server and almost everyone that answered back thought that someone was hacking at while they were playing. I think that players who realize that this is a good server and doesn't have any admin on most of the time have no reason not to be there. It's annoying.
