Autokicked from a game?

Postby Azyke » 06 May 2017, 01:58

So I tried to join a thermo game and was kicked as soon as I tried to join. It had a message something along the line of "Player has Toxic behavior" or something along those lines. As someone who is generally very polite online and doesn't swear I was wondering where on earth this came from. I'm very new to FAF and only have 14 ranked games. So I did a search in my replays and found I had played with the guy. I watched the replay and my horrible crime..........? I sent my fatboy towards the enemy and apparently "Provoked the enemy". Seriously... Now i'm new and no expert but are we not supposed to send any units towards the enemy unless you have your teams permission in case you provoke the enemy and cause them to attack you back? Then get you banned from future games?

So how you block someone from joining your games? Seems I was auto blocked with some prewritten message. I don't see the option anywhere. Also I've attached the replay so my horrible crimes can be seen by everyone. :roll:

First, you probably were just accidentally kicked if it was an instant thing. Second, you can be banned for anything by anyone. If I don't like you then I can ban you from my games. Of course, that is theoretical and once it gets around that a certain player is a d*** then people won't want to play games hosted by them.

You can't block people from games. Foeing someone will just make their messages invisible to you in the client as well as games they host, I think. However, they can still join your games and talk in lobbies/games all they want.

There's a very high chance it happened because of a previous kick. You can write a message for the person you kick and the message gets saved, so if you want to kick another player (for whatever reason) it will reappear again in your text box even if yuo dont want it to. When it was first implemented a couple of months ago i made a lot of those mistakes as well. I remember kicking like 6 people from my overcrowded game with the message to refaf while that wasn't my intention.

You should probably just take it with a grain of salt since it probably wasn't directed to you.

Several times I've come across a situation when a player is kicked immediately upon joining a lobby without the host actually doing anything, after several attempts we just rehost the game and it would work. I don't know what causes this though.

Nope not an accident. Not some previous message. Ran into him again today. This appears to be some admin privilege? How can I auto ban people like him? See attached photo.

He's probably using a variant of this or at least something similar:
viewtopic.php?f=41&t=5578

This isn't really supported by faf though.

You can put the user on your irc foe list. When he hosts a game you'll notice the host name being red and know that you don't need to join.
If you want to auto kick him from your lobbies the same way you'd have to ask him kindly for the mod he is using.

Isn't this already in lobbymanager mod? I think the links are in the mod&tools subforum.

That guy must also really hate you. I usually forget people after a day and then I happen to be back in a game with them at some point.
